Although this study was primarily concerned with instrumentation techniques, preliminary observations indicated that the resting hwnan microvibration contains a large cardiovascular component, probably obscured in previous observations with the electrodynamic velocity sensor.Human microvibrations (MY) are normal or physiologic body surface vibrations of micron amplitude, observed at rest. The microvibration has also been termed the normal or minor tremor. Measurement of such vibrations is of significance in study of Parkinsonism and the Intention Tremor (Wachs& Bushes, 1961), and has been used in experimental psychology to distinguish neurotic, schizophrenic and control Ss (Williams, 1964a). Microvibrations may be described in terms of displacement, or its derivatives as: microdisplacement, microvelocity, and microacceleration. Although early research emphasized this response as being neuromuscular and the source of resting muscle tone, more recent work indicates that the source of MV is at least in part cardiovascular (Brumlik, 1962). A lack of suitable instrumentation has obscured both'the source and the nature of this phenomenon.The term, microvibration, was first applied to the minute vibratory movement of the human body surface by Rohracher in 1946, although he first observed the phenomenon in 1943 (1949, 1962b). Other workers studying MV include Denier (1956Denier ( , 1957, Haider & Lindsley (1964), Heller-Jahnl (1959), Marko (1959), Schrocksnadel et al (1956), Sugano (1957), Sugano &Inanaga (1960), and Williams (1963, I964a, b). Although Rohracher described the phenomenon as a normal physiological function involved in generation of resting muscle tone and body temperature regulation, Sugano & Inanaga (1960) described it as a kind of minor tremor.The results of tremor research are closely related to study of the human microvibration; the same instrumentation can be used to study both. Of particular interest in tremor research is the work of Chase et al (1965), Cooper et al (1957), Halliday & Redfearn (1956). Hamoen (1958). Jasper & Andrews (1938), Lansing (1957, Lindsley (1935), Lippold et al (1959, Marshall &Walsh (1956), andTravis (1929). An additional group of workers has studied the "normal or physiologic tremor," which may be an identical phenomenon. This group includes Brumlik (1962), Bushes et al (1960), Wachs et al (1960), and Wachs& Bushes (196 I (1947, 1948), althoush these workers were not specificaDy concerned with MY or tremor measurements.Without doubt, Rohrac:her is the pioneer in themicl'O,ibration field
