Heart rate measurement using computer vision technology

Heart rate detection is a serious business, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun with it! And what better way to bring some humor to the topic than with the help of computer vision and Eulerian Magnification?

Now, I know some of you may be thinking, "Ritz, why do we need computer vision to detect our heart rate? Can't we just feel our own pulse?" Well, my friends, let me tell you, computer vision is like having a personal heart rate detective on call 24/7. It can detect your heart rate even when you're asleep, or watching your favorite TV show, or watching a YouTube channel like Augmented Startups.

But what is Eulerian Magnification, you ask? Think of it like a "zoom in, zoom out" feature for your heart rate. It's a technique that uses computer vision to magnify small changes in color and brightness, making it easier to detect even the slightest changes in heart rate. It's like having a magnifying glass for your heart.

One example of how this technology can be used is with the use of YOLO models like YOLOv7 or YOLOv8. These models can be used to detect the head of a person and then apply Eulerian Magnification to detect changes in heart rate. This way, even if a person is wearing a mask or has their head covered, the model can still detect their heart rate by tracking the blood flow on their face.

But why stop at just detecting heart rate? With the power of Eulerian Magnification, we can also use computer vision to detect other vital signs like breathing rate and even the amount of sweat on your forehead. So, the next time you're at the gym, and you're feeling a little nervous about how much you're sweating, just remember that the camera might be able to tell how hard you're working by the amount of sweat on your forehead.

But let's be real, who wants to be monitored all the time? The good news is, Eulerian Magnification can also be used in a more fun and entertaining way. Have you ever wanted to see your own heartbeat in slow motion? With Eulerian Magnification, we can now do just that!


Just imagine, you're sitting at home, watching your favorite show, and suddenly your heart rate starts to spike. With the help of Eulerian Magnification, you can now see your heartbeat in slow motion, like a scene straight out of a movie. It's like you're the star of your own medical drama. You'll finally be able to see the exact moment your heart skips a beat when your crush walks into the room.

In conclusion, heart rate detection is a serious business, but with the help of computer vision and Eulerian Magnification, we can make it a little more fun and entertaining. So, the next time you're feeling stressed or excited, just remember that there's a camera out there, watching your every move, and that's not creepy at all. It's just technology being technology, like when they put cameras in the toilet to see how much toilet paper you're using.
