Smartwatch: Performance evaluation for long-term heart rate monitoring

Abstract: Recent advancement in wearable technologies, particularly smart watches embedded with powerful processors, memory subsystems with various built-in sensors such as accelerometer, gyroscope and optical sensor in one single package has opened a whole new application space. One of the main applications of interest is the monitoring of movement patterns, heart rate, ECG and PPG particularly for longer duration's in natural environments. In this study, we conducted a performance evaluation on the optical heart rate … Show more

“…This approach is, however, not very robust to the environment [96]. Some vendors apply so-called photoplethysmography (PPG) to determine whether a wearable device (e.g., a smartwatch) is currently on its user's wrist or not [97,98]. The process is similar to the one followed when measuring heart rate [99].…”

“…Wearable devices allow non-invasive monitoring of physiological activity. In particular, smartwatches can be applied to different contexts, such as stress [4], sleep quality [19] or physical fitness [5] to measure well-being through heart rate. Moreover, these devices are often equipped with a range of additional sensors, allowing for more holistic measurements.…”

“…Smartwatches thus collect a magnitude of data, most of which is sufficient for giving their user an overview of their daily activity. However, when being applied to more serious medical and healthcare use cases, the current measurement accuracy of wearable devices remains rather unclear [5,6,9,10,20].…”

“…Because the measurement of HR in unit of beats using ECG and the exact representation of heart activity in waveforms are possible as shown in Figure 8, accurate monitoring of HR variability is possible [36,37]. ECG plays a very important role in the diagnosis of cardiac diseases from myocardial ischemia and infarction to syncope and palpitations.…”
