Chest surface motion is of significant importance as it contains information of respiratory and cardiac systems together with the complex coupling between these two systems. Chest surface motion is not only critical in radiotherapy, but also useful in personalized systems for continuous cardiorespiratory monitoring. In this dataset, a multimodal setup is employed to simultaneously acquire cardiorespiratory signals. These signals include high-density trunk surface motion (from 16 distinct locations) with VICON motion capture system, nasal breathing from a thermal sensor, respiratory effort from a strain belt and electrocardiogram in lead-II configuration. This dataset contains 72 trials recorded from 11 participants with a cumulative duration of approximately 215 min under various conditions such as normal breathing, breath-hold, irregular breathing and post-exercise recovery. The presented dataset is not only useful for evaluating prediction algorithms for radiotherapy applications, but can also be employed for the development of techniques to evaluate the cardio-mechanics and hemodynamic parameters of chest surface motion.
