description

A novel method for photoplethysmography (PPG) signal detection has been proposed and implemented in a three channel prototype device. The current design is simple, low cost and does not require sophisticated analogue circuits. The prototype was evaluated by physiological measurements and recorded PPG signals from conduit arteries of human subject.
