Abstract

We propose a standalone demo prototype of HemaApp, a smartphone application that noninvasively monitors the hemoglobin concentration in the blood. A previous version HemaApp using a supplemental light attachment combined with an unmodified camera has been presented at Ubicomp 2016, however the current version is an improvement from the 2016 system demonstrating no external attachments. In this paper, we present the newest version of HemaApp, which combines the unmodified smartphone's camera, white LED flash, and IR sensor on the phone's laser autofocus system.

HemaApp: noninvasive blood screening of hemoglobin using smartphone cameras
UbiComp '16: Proceedings of the 2016 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing

We present HemaApp, a smartphone application that noninvasively monitors blood hemoglobin concentration using the smartphone's camera and various lighting sources. Hemoglobin measurement is a standard clinical tool commonly used for screening anemia and ...
An animated, non-compensating pulmonary model for teaching ventilation and perfusion relationships to medical students

Medical students, in their study of gas exchange within the lung, are typically challenged by the complexities and interactions resulting from the non-uniform ventilation, diffusion, blood flow maldistribution, and the mechanisms of blood gas transport. ...
Pulse Arrival Time Based Cuff-Less and 24-H Wearable Blood Pressure Monitoring and its Diagnostic Value in Hypertension

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) has become an essential tool in the diagnosis and management of hypertension. Current standard ABPM devices use an oscillometric cuff-based method which can cause physical discomfort to the patients with ...
