Optical Heart Rate Monitoring: System Design for Wearable Consumer and Medical Devices

29 Jun 17
1:30 PM - 2:20 PM

Tracks: Flexible & Wearable

This seminar will discuss the basic principles of photoplethysmography (PPG), the physiology involved and methods for measurement. Attendees considering a new wearable design will gain insights on the system design trade-offs, with real data backed by simulations, whereas those interested in low-power wearables will learn simulation and electronics design techniques for extending the life of their product. Engineers interested in physiological monitoring will benefit from this in-depth technical tutorial of the entire opto-electrical system for heart rate and pulse oximetry.
