String galvanometer
text:
A string galvanometer is a sensitive fast-responding measuring instrument that uses a single fine filament of wire suspended in a strong magnetic field to measure small currents. In use, a strong light source is used to illuminate the fine filament, and the optical system magnifies the movement of the filament allowing it to be observed or recorded by photography. The principle of the string galvanometer remained in use for electrocardiograms until the advent of electronic vacuum-tube amplifiers
