FaceHeart, an AI-based health tech company, today announced that it has been selected as the winner of the “Best Biometric Sensor Solution” award in the 9th annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global digital health and medical technology market.

FaceHeart Vitals™ (registered as FH Vitals™) is an FDA-cleared, video-based contactless vital sign solution. By capturing and analyzing facial data via a standard RGB camera such as smartphone camera for 50 seconds, FH Vitals™ enables users to obtain key health data, including heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), respiration rate (RR), oxygen saturation (SpO2), and heart rate variability (HRV).

To ensure measurement accuracy, FaceHeart has collected over 300 million datasets from more than 6,000 testers via 20+ clinical trials by partnering with top medical centers globally. Categorized as a class II SaMD (software as a medical device) and cleared by the FDA, FaceHeart Vitals™ not only enables medical-grade vital sign measurement in a variety of homes and workspace, but also accelerates the effectiveness and efficiency of smart digital solutions such as Remote Patient Monitoring, Telehealth, Pharmaceutical Clinical Trials, Telemedicine, and Corporate Wellness.

FaceHeart Vitals™ includes a plug-and-play software development kit (SDK), which can be integrated into common edge devices such as smartphones (iOS/Android), tablets, laptops/desktops (Windows) as well as embedded into system boards, smart home devices and more. Leveraging the technology of Edge Computing, FaceHeart Vitals™ can be integrated into small devices seamlessly, supporting heavy computations without the need of cloud facilities and eliminating any network latency and data privacy ramifications.

Recently, FaceHeart has launched additional parameters for cardio assessment, including Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) and Heart Failure detection with over 90% sensitivity.

“At FaceHeart, we envision a more accessible and sustainable healthcare ecosystem and we believe we can succeed in revolutionizing the healthcare industry through innovative video-based rPPG technology. By developing this contactless vital sign measurement solution, we are improving personal wellness management, preventive healthcare and facilitated care delivery all at the same time,” said Prof. Bing-Fei Wu, Founder & CEO of FaceHeart. “We’re proud to be acknowledged by MedTech Breakthrough. Our ongoing and future technological advancement will enable us to improve healthcare outcomes and build a better and sustainable healthcare system.”

“FaceHeart is redefining the future of digital health with the leverage of rigorous and reliable clinical datasets.
