How to extract heart beat rate information from a user using the camera of a commercially available mobile phone will enable the users of the system with vital information and utilize interactive tools useful for personal health coaching.Abstract:
As the demand for effective and reliable telecare systems increases rapidly over the last years, novel ideas applied on existing consumer products enables the development of innovative solutions that could enhance the user's wellbeing. In this research, we are going to demonstrate the potential of a system that enables users to monitor their own heart beat rate in real time and use specialised software for personal health coaching. In this paper we will explain and demonstrate how to extract heart beat rate information from a user using the camera of a commercially available mobile phone which will enable us to supply the users of the system with vital information and utilize interactive tools useful for personal health coaching. Our industrial partner Health Smart Limited have filed a patent [1] for this application, they retain the full intellectual property of this project.read more
