No wearables needed: researchers use WiFi and Raspberry Pi to measure your heart rate in real time  TechSpot WiFi signals can measure heart rate—no wearables needed  UC Santa Cruz – News Wi-Fi Signals Can Measure Heart Rates Without Wearables, New Research Suggests  CNET Researchers claim that a Raspberry Pi’s Wi-Fi can provide “clinical-level heart rate monitoring” without the need for a wearable  xda-developers.com UC …

Summary Wi-Fi signals and machine learning can noninvasively process heart rate with clinical-level accuracy in under 5 seconds. After being tested on 118 people, it read pulse during motion using a $30 Raspberry Pi chip. If successful, it could enable contactless heart monitoring without wearables. When you want to track your health, you’d usually have to shell out for a …
