Problem Statement

Build an application that can calculate SpO2, Blood Pressure, Stress or any other possible body vitals using a Smartphone. Applications that can help do screening for any conditions for people to take a decision to do a Dr consultation are also welcome.

Millions of people use portable health equipment every day to monitor health metrics including heart rate, oxygen saturation, and others. However, this can be made easier by utilising a typical Smartphone and its features. Create a smartphone application that can calculate SpO2, blood pressure, stress levels, or any other potential bodily vitals. Applications that assist in screening for any issues so that users can decide whether to see a doctor are also welcome.

These sensors can also measure changes in the way light is absorbed. The signals picked up by the camera lens are broken down into Red, Blue or Green elements based on how much light is absorbed by the blood vessels under the skin in these wavelengths of light. 

Background of the Problem

Every day, millions of individuals use portable health devices to keep a track of Health Metrics such as Heart Rate, SpO2, and others. But this can be facilitated by using a commonly available Smartphone and its capabilities. Build an application that can calculate SpO2, Blood Pressure, Stress or any other possible body vitals using a Smartphone. Applications that can help do screening for any conditions for people to take a decision to do a Dr consultation are also welcome. 

 

Objective

The SpO2 tool uses a signal called the photoplethysmogram (PPG) – information, in the form of reflected light that is collected from a user’s fingertip or wrist. This is similar in mechanism to the PPG function in Apple Watches. While Apple’s proprietary tech allows users to also obtain an “ECG” report that helps doctors monitor irregular heart rhythm among other heart ailments, MFine’s proprietary tech gives users a window into a vital indicator of respiratory health. It uses light from camera flashes to produce an optical image using light sensors that are built-in to smartphone cameras

Millions of people use portable health equipment every day to monitor health metrics including heart rate, oxygen saturation, and others. However, this can be made easier by utilising a typical Smartphone and its features. Create a smartphone application that can calculate SpO2, blood pressure, stress levels, or any other potential bodily vitals.
