Polar Transmission Technology
The Polar Transmitter is the most advanced unit on the market today. The transmitter is truly the "heart" of the heart rate monitor. The heart generates an electrical signal that is detected by the transmitter and sent to the receiver (wrist unit). There are two electrodes within the transmitter that make this all possible.The Polar Difference (Comparison with Cardiosport)
The Polar Transmitter utilizes a one-piece design that encases all of the electrical components inside the unit. This is why a Polar Transmitter is the only true 100% waterproof unit available today. Whether you are a swimmer, like to workout in the rain, or just perspire heavily, you can be confident that the Polar Transmitter will continue to work trouble free in wet conditions.
