Aims Monitoring of heart rate during physical exercise is an important feature in many modern wearable devices such as wristbands and smart watches. However, obtaining high quality photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals during physical exercise is difficult and challenging as PPG signals are usually contaminated by very strong motion artifacts caused by subject's hand movements. The aim of this research is to investigate the effects of motion artifacts on the quality of acquired PPG signals and propose solution to mitigate or ideally remove its destructive affects.

Found on CV

Achievements Designed, prototyped and tested a wireless wristband-type PPG-based device for Heart Rate Variability (HRV) signal analysis.

Aims Existing healthcare systems are unable to sufficiently service the increasing needs of the aging population.

Found on CV

Current systems are mainly dominated by frequent and costly patient visits to clinics and hospitals for early prevention and treatment of possible diseases. The failure to do more regular health monitoring is specifically problematic for elderly people with a number of disorders co-occurring with a primary disease and often weak and rapidly changing health conditions. Given this future healthcare problems, it is thus necessary to extend healthcare services from clinics and hospitals into residential environments. The aim of this research is to use latest technological advances in Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) and wireless communications to remotely monitor patients' conditions at their own residential places and manage their treatment.
