Why Choose Darwin Edge's rVSM Solution

At Darwin Edge, we are pioneering the future of health monitoring through our advanced Vital Signs Monitoring (rVSM) solutions. Utilising state-of-the-art Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) technology, combined with AI-driven computer vision and sophisticated signal processing, we offer contactless, accurate, and rapid monitoring of vital health metrics. Our innovative approach is reshaping healthcare, fitness tracking, and well-being management across various sectors.

Non-Invasive and Contactless

rVSM enables comfortable, contact-free monitoring, ideal for continuous tracking and suited for vulnerable groups like the elderly and young children who may experience discomfort or stress from physical contact.

No Additional Hardware Required

Unlike smartwatches or other traditional solutions, rVSM requires no extra hardware. It can be installed on any device—phone, tablet, or computer—or integrated into other apps, making it accessible and convenient for users.

Enhanced Privacy

rVSM data can be processed and stored locally on the device, without internet or cloud access, ensuring higher privacy and security for sensitive biometric data.

Swiss Made and GDPR Compliant

Our rVSM has been designed and developed in Switzerland, rigorously tested in partnership with CHUV, Lausanne Hospital, and fully compliant with GDPR standards.

Oxygen Saturation (SpO2)

Through the analysis of light absorption in the skin, our technology delivers precise Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) measurements, offering vital insights into respiratory efficiency and blood oxygen levels, crucial for assessing respiratory health and physical performance.

Innovative Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) Technology

At the core of Darwin Edge’s Remote Vital Signs Monitoring solution lies our advanced Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) technology. rPPG is a non-invasive method that uses visual cues from a camera to detect blood volume changes in the microvascular bed of tissue, offering a revolutionary way to measure vital signs. This technique relies on analyzing subtle variations in skin color that occur with each heartbeat, allowing for the contactless monitoring of heart rate, heart rate variability (HRV), breathing rate, and even blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) under certain conditions.

Why rPPG?

Innovative Technology

Built on Darwin Edge’s patented rPPG technology, our rVSM solutions overcome challenges like ambient light interference, motion artifacts, and skin tone variations, ensuring reliable performance in diverse environments.

Accurate and Real-Time Data

Using advanced signal processing algorithms, rVSM delivers highly accurate, medical-grade vital signs in real time, with accuracy comparable to traditional methods like ECG and oximeters.

Cost-Effective

Compared to traditional medical devices, rVSM is more affordable, compact, and delivers equally accurate results, offering a practical solution for healthcare providers and users.

Diagram explaining Darwin Edge’s rPPG (remote photoplethysmography) technology used in rVSM solution. The illustration shows how ambient light penetrates the skin layers, interacts with blood vessels, and reflects back. Signal processing captures these reflections to detect vital sign signals, such as heart rate. This innovative approach provides accurate, real-time, and cost-effective health monitoring by overcoming challenges like ambient light interference and skin tone variations.
