Abstract

To research and analysis acupuncture scientific, all kinds of acupuncture manipulation data must be displayed clear. With the minute force sensor technology and the biomechanical principles, a detecting needle for acupuncture manipulation was developed. Aided with computer hardware and software system, the detecting needle can record the signal wave when act acupuncture. Through clinical practice, the signal wave of the needle by the symmetrical twirling-rotating and symmetrical lifting-inserting manipulation were recorded during the acupuncture process, which provided scientific experimentation and analysis method to research and instruct acupuncture.
