Learn More Evaluation of Wearable Head BCG for PTT Measurement in Blood Pressure Intervention
Managing hypertension and cardiovascular risk demands frequent and accurate blood pressure monitoring. Traditional cuff-based methods, however, have limitations in their portability and real-time measuring aspect.
Samsung Research America has proposed a new system that enables continuous blood pressure tracking using an over-the-ear wireless wearable device. The system uses sensors to capture both ballistocardiography (BCG) and photoplethysmography (PPG) signals, and calculate the pulse transit time (PTT) by combining these two bio-signals. Learn about the potential of a future healthcare solution that lets you track blood pressure with everyday wireless earphones on the Samsung Research blog.
Learn More CheapNVS: Real-Time On-Device Novel View Synthesis for Mobile Applications
Novel View Synthesis (NVS) is an innovative technology as it lets you reconstruct a scene from various perspectives. However, as NVS requires a lot of computation, it relies heavily on high-performance GPUs or cloud servers. Accordingly, it has limitations related to the cost, and is difficult to apply in real time on mobile devices.
In order to tackle these issues, Samsung R&D Institute United Kingdom presents CheapNVS, a lightweight NVS system based on neural networks that you can run even on your smartphone. This model takes in a single input image and a new camera pose, and then leverages hardware-friendly network design to both perform image warping and then inpainting to fill in the occluded areas. With its novel parallelizable NVS formulation, it manages to speed-up execution while avoiding the use of costly structures such as multi-plane images. CheapNVS, implementable without complex 3D modeling or expensive computations, is a next-generation technology that can be used for a variety of mobile applications including video calls and 3D image conversion. It is more lightweight than conventional methods by a factor of 20 or more, running quickly and efficiently even on mobile SoC environments.
