Revolutionizing smartphone gyrocardiography for heart rate monitoring: overcoming clinical validation hurdles [PDF]
Accurate heart rate (HR) measurement is crucial for optimal cardiac health, and while conventional methods such as electrocardiography and photoplethysmography are widely used for continuous daily monitoring, they may face practical limitations due to their dependence on external sensors and susceptibility to motion artifacts.

Heartbeat Detection in Gyrocardiography Signals without Concurrent ECG Tracings [PDF]
A heartbeat generates tiny mechanical vibrations, mainly due to the opening and closing of heart valves. These vibrations can be recorded by accelerometers and gyroscopes applied on a subject’s chest. In particular, the local 3D linear accelerations and 3D angular velocities of the chest wall are referred to as seismocardiograms (SCG) and ...

Real-Time Cardiac Beat Detection and Heart Rate Monitoring from Combined Seismocardiography and Gyrocardiography [PDF]
Cardiography is an indispensable element of health care. However, the accessibility of at-home cardiac monitoring is limited by device complexity, accuracy, and cost. We have developed a real-time algorithm for heart rate monitoring and beat detection implemented in a custom-built, affordable system.

Detection of heart rate using smartphone gyroscope data: a scoping review. [PDF]
Heart rate (HR) is closely related to heart rhythm patterns, and its irregularity can imply serious health problems. Therefore, HR is used in the diagnosis of many health conditions. Traditionally, HR has been measured through an electrocardiograph (ECG),
