FACEHEART from Taiwan obtained organizational approval in the United States for its technology that AI does not move to measure the respiratory rate.
She received 510 K (K) Class of the US Food and Drug Administration for the component of the respiratory rate of its software development group.
What about
FACEHEART SDK, which uses a smartphone camera to capture vital signs – including heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, saturation, and heart rate change – and measuring them within 50 seconds. It does this using a computer vision, RPG (remote photography), and deep learning.
Quoted from the evaluation of the FDA, the company has shared that the SDK respiratory component Consisked deviations inside ± 2 breaths in the minute showed the devices.
This approval of the FDA is the second after 510 (K) of the FACEHEART SDK component in 2023.
SDK can be combined with Taiwanese company into common edge devices, such as smartphones, tablets, desktop computers or laptop, and The analysis is carried out using edge computing without a cloud service to maintain safety and eliminate network transmission time. Technology uses preventive health conditions, a remote doctor, care for the elderly, and the management of chronic diseases.
Market shot
Many smartphone -based applications that use PPG signals to measure vital signs have also arrived in the market in recent years. It is worth noting between them Google Fit. In Asia Pacific, prominent MFINE players from India and Advanced Health Intelligence (advanced that was previously human photography) from Australia.
the Taiwan National University Hospital in Taiwan and its partner, Focaltech Smart Sensors, also developed a mobile phone application that measures the heart rhythm by wiping the user’s fingers through the smartphone camera.
At the same time, the Canadian company Nuralogix’s Anura Vital signs measuring application was provided in Singapore.
There is another common use of smart phone cameras for a health examination, which is to discover and predict stroke, such as Pennsylvania State University inventions and Houston Methodist Hospital in the United States and RMIT University in Australia.
