Google Successfully Tested New Technology, Will Be Able To Know Heart Rate Through Earbuds and Headphone
Google APG : Google has successfully tested a new technology. Through which people will be able to know the heart rate through earbuds and headphones. This technology will prove to be very helpful in knowing the health status. According to reports, Google scientists have successfully tested Audioplethysmography (APG).
In Audioplethysmography (APG), a person's heart rate is measured through hearables with the help of ultrasound. There is no need for any additional sensor for this and there is no impact on the battery of the hearables. Scientists conducted this study on 153 people and shared their experiences after about 2 rounds. Which found that the APG consistently achieved accurate heart rate and heart rate variability measurements. However, there was a 3.21 percent average error across participants across all activity scenarios in heart rate and a 2.70 percent average error in inter-beat intervals of heart rate variability, which is not significant.
Google has said that we have introduced a latest active in-ear health sensing method. Audioplethysmography (APG) enables ANC hearables to monitor users' physiological signals, such as heart rate and heart rate variability, without adding additional sensors or compromising battery life. Complies with safety regulations with 80DB margin below APG limit. It is unaffected by the condition of the seal and includes all skin tones.
Further explained, APG turns any True Wireless Stereo (TWS) active noise canceling headphones into smart sensing headphones with a simple software upgrade. And works robustly across various user activities. The sensing carrier signal is completely inaudible. And is not affected by music playing.
