The document describes a medical mirror that can track and display a user's heart rate in real time using only a webcam, without any external sensors. The mirror consists of an LCD monitor with a built-in webcam connected to analysis software running on a laptop. It uses computer vision techniques to detect the user's face, extract color signals, and analyze the frequency corresponding to heart rate. The technology provides a low-cost, convenient way to monitor heart rate and could help detect potential health issues.

4. MEDICAL MIRROR
• Medical Mirror is a mirror that lets us see our
own heart rate.

7. INTRODUCTION
• Digital medical devices promise to
transform the future of medicine
because of their ability to produce
exquisitely detailed individual
physiological data.
• Current techniques.
• A new mirror interface for real time.
7

8. HISTORY
• In 2009, Ming-Zher Poh and his
roommate, Dan McDuff electrical
and medical-engineering graduate
student at the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology (MIT).
• His friend McDuff wrote code to
process the data in real time which
is used to generate an instant heart-
rate reading in laptop. 8

9. HEART BEAT RATE
• Determine your fitness level, also your
cardiovascular health.
• A high resting heart rate increases the risk of
heart attack and can be indicative of a
predisposition for diabetes and obesity.
• An excellent indicator of your overall fitness.

10. DESIGN
•An LCD monitor with a built in webcam to
provide an interactive display.
•The user is visible to webcam and LCD monitor
can be used to project information onto the
reflective surface of mirror.
•The monitor and webcam are connected to a
laptop running the analysis software in real time.10

TECHNOLOGY

15. HOW IT WORKS?
• An automated face tracker detects the largest
face from the webcam.
• The raw RGB signals are decomposed into
three independent components.
• The users heart rate is quantified as the
frequency that corresponds to highest power of
the spectrum within an operational frequency
band.
15

16. FACE TRACKER
• The automated face tracker which detects largest face
from the video captured by webcam.
• Automatic face tracker is a technology to detect size
and location of the users face.
16

17. RGB CHANNEL
• RGB colour sensor capture a blend of
the reflected plethysmographic signal
with the other source of change in
light caused by the movement or
changes in ambient lighting
condition.
17

18. INTERACTION
• A single user at a time.
• The user will see a box appear around
his/her face.
• Users heart rate will be displayed on the
mirror.
• The heart rate measurement will be
updated continuously until the user looks
away.

19. CALCULATION OF HEART
BEAT
• 45-240bpm operational frequency
band.
• Video physiological recording are
done by using MATLAB.

21. ADVANTAGES
• Low cost.
• Fits seamlessly into the ambient home
environment.
• To provide a convenient means for
people to track their daily health with
minimal effort.
• You could also use it on a phone or
laptop or any device that has camera.
21

22. DISADVANTAGES
• Like ECG technology it is not
possible.
• We have to wait a time period of 15
seconds to get heartbeat count.
22

23. CONCLUSION
• This is an amazing invention because the
relationship between medical mirror and
people could save some people and some
discomfort when they visit the doctor and
it possibly could help others save their
lives by noticing the higher heart beat that
probably would go undetected otherwise.
