Description

Intelligent Sensing Limited is dedicated to developing smart sensing technologies and algorithms to monitor human physiological parameters such as blood pressure (BP), heart rate and heart rate variability, blood oxygen saturation levels (Sp02), stress, etc., thus empowering people to live better lives by providing timely, accurate and personalized information on their health and environment conditions. Hypertension (also known as high blood pressure) is one of the most widely occurring public-health challenges in the world, and it is a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. We are developing a wearable sensor network device based on patent-pending technology to address the market need for non-invasive and real-time high-accuracy BP measurement, which is essential for diagnosis and prevention of hypertension and related cardiovascular diseases. Our first prototype product, DeepBP, is a wristband-like device and it detects depth-sensitive information on blood flow pulsation using multi-wavelength photoplethysmogram (MWPPG) sensors. Based on the extracted pure capillary and arterial pulsation signals and physiological model guided algorithm design, the prototype product offers highly accurate (medical-grade), continuous and real-time (timely), and unobtrusive BP measurement.
