Abstract :
Optical heart rate monitoring (OHRM) offers an unobtrusive solution for continuously measuring heart rate. An OHRM prototype, able to correct for movement artifacts during physical activity, proved to be valid to continuously monitor heart rate during activities including running, allowing monitoring cardiovascular condition in response to fitness and home activities.
