Systems and methods for assessing PPG signals generated based on transdermal optical data can include a computing device generating a color intensity signal using an acquired sequence of transdermal images of a subject. The computing device can compute a signal quality metric of the color intensity signal. The computing device can provide an indication of a quality of the color intensity signal for display on a display device associated with the computing device. The indication of the quality of the color intensity signal can be determined based on the signal quality metric.

Systems and methods for autocorrelation based assessment of PPG signal quality

Systems and methods for acquiring photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals for measuring blood pressure can include a computing device acquiring a sequence of images representing transdermal optical data of a subject, and generating a corresponding sequence of downsampled color frames. The computing device can identify, in each downsampled color frame, a respective central image block representing a central image region of the downsampled color frame and having a first size smaller than a second size of the downsampled color frame. The computing device can generate, for each downsampled color frame, a corresponding color intensity value based on the respective central image block. The computing device can generate, using color intensity values corresponding to the sequence of downsampled color frames, a PPG signal to determine a blood pressure value of the subject.

Systems and methods for acquiring PPG signals for measuring blood pressure

Systems and methods for blood pressure estimation using smart offset calibration can include a computing device associating a calibration photoplethysmographic (PPG) signal generated from a first sequence of image frames obtained from a photodetector of the computing device with one or more measurement values generated by a blood pressure measurement device different from the computing device. The computing device can obtain a recording PPG signal generated from a second sequence of image frames obtained from the photodetector, and identify a calibration model from a plurality of blood pressure calibration models based on the calibration PPG signal and the recording PPG signal. The computing device can generate a calibrated blood pressure value using the recording PPG signal, features associated with the calibration PPG signal and the identified calibration model.

Systems and methods for blood pressure estimation using smart offset calibration

Systems and methods for detecting data acquisition conditions using color-based penalties can include a computing device obtaining a sequence of images acquired by a photodetector. The computing device can determine, for each pixel position of a plurality of pixel positions associated with the sequence of images, a respective penalty score indicative of a similarity between a color value of a pixel of the pixel position and a desired color value. The desired color value can represent a color property of light emitted from body parts of users when placed opposite to the photodetector. The computing device can determine, using penalty scores of the plurality of pixel positions, a relative position of a body part of a user with respect to a desired position.
