Open Remote Physiology Dataset (remophysio)
An exploration of tools to extract physiological features (heart rate, blinks, ...) from webcam recordings, that can be used in online experiments.
We compared the algorithms available in the NeuroKit package for remote physiology with other established implementations, against a ground truth of true physiological data.
Conclusion
We analyzed two subjects. It doesn't work at all. No correlation whatsoever between real and estimated PPG. Either I'm doing something wrong or š¤·. Please halp.
Methods
Data
Researchers who agreed to share their data underwent an 8-min resting state paradigm (using the Replicable Resting-state Task in jsPsych). Faces were recorded using the laptop's commercial webcam (30 Hz), and physiological signals (ECG, PPG, RSP) were recorded using BITalino (1000 Hz).
Preprocessing
Heart Rate
The "true" heart rate was computed from the PPG signal using NeuroKit.
