Scientists at the University of Toronto have devised a new app that works in conjunction with a smartphone camera to show several statistics about the health of the person in the image.
The researchers have found that blood pressure can be measured by taking a quick video selfie.
The tech in the research was co-created by Kang Lee, a professor of applied psychology and human development at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education and Canada Research Chair in developmental nanoscience.
A postdoctoral researcher called Paul Zheng also helped develop the technology.
The tech is called transdermal optical imaging, and in the research, the team measures the blood pressure of 1,328 Canadian and Chinese adults by capturing a two-minute video of their face on an iPhone.
The results in the experiments were compared to standard devices used to measure blood pressure.
It is good and astonishing news for people who have blood pressure (BP) problems, never thought that one day BP monitoring would become as easy as taking a video selfie.
But in this modern world anything is possible, Researchers from Hangzhou Normal University, in China, and the University of Toronto, in Canada, is working on an innovative approach of BP monitoring which could be quicker, easier, and more convenient way than the routine BP monitoring apparatus.
Researchers have recently worked on a technology called transdermal optical imaging which measures blood pressure by detecting blood flow changes in the facial videos captured through smartphones.
A selfie-style video of the face is required for this medical technology.
In particular, this method uses smartphones’ optical sensors to follow blood flow patterns under the skin.
Ambient light goes through the skin’s outer layer allowing digital optical sensors in smartphones to see and extract blood flow patterns, which is exactly done by transdermal optical imaging models to predict blood pressure.

When you have a serious health condition that requires regular and accurate blood pressure monitoring, you need a quality machine that's reliable and easy to use.
The Medvice Blood Pressure Cuff is all of that and more.
We outfitted this device with premium quality components from start to finish.
We manufacture the cuff from durable hypoallergenic non-latex nylon.
We ensured it would fit every adult arm, from small to extra-large (22cm to 42cm).
We gave it a zinc alloy body, so it's tough and durable.
