A novel high data compression of ECG data in the measurement space by clipping the signal and using the zero-crossing intervals as features. This yields low-dimensional features sufficient and efficient for screening and some diagnostics. It is validated by experiment using ECG of an in vitro heart of a rat. This new idea is built around a Z-80 microprocessor.
