Development of a Heart Rate Monitor Based on an Ear Phone

摘要: It is important to continuously monitor health information in daily life under u-Healthcare environments, and some simple unconstraint measurement methods are also required perform such continuous monitoring. Thus, this study developed a Heart Rate Monitor (HRM) that type of PPG based ear phone for achieving easy wearability removed moving artifacts using an accelerometer order improve its accuracy noises. PPG, ECG, acceleration were measured at specific walking with 3, 4, 5, 6, 7km/h analyzing dynamic noises which the sensitivity was more than 80% velocity from results evaluation performance HRM. Because HRM on able simply stably measure heart rate or it can be usefully applied management exercise prescription/management.
