What does a PPG sensor measure?

Photoplethysmography, known most commonly as PPG, utilizes an infrared light to measure the volumetric variations of blood circulation. This measurement provides valuable information about the cardiovascular system.

What is Ballistocardiography used for?

An alternative approach which may help diagnose OSA and other cardiovascular diseases is the ballistocardiography. The ballistocardiogram (BCG) signal captures the ballistic forces of the heart caused by the sudden ejection of blood into the great vessels with each heartbeat, breathing, and body movement.
