Figure 2.
Schematic of the custom-built collar system consisting of a Hall-effect transducer mounted on a non-magnetic ring. The ring was attached on the back of the head. A small piece of rare earth magnet was mounted on the skin above the larynx. If OEC was enlarged, the magnet moved towards the transducer and thereby caused a voltage change, which reflects the change in distance between the magnet piece and the Hall-effect transducer.
