Wearable Health Vital Radar

Continuous Contactless ECG & Respiration Monitor

Using ambient 6G cellular carrier waves to continuously track patient heartbeats, respiration, and sleep cycles without any physical skin sensors.

Technical Explanation

Hospital patients often find physical chest straps, adhesive ECG electrodes, and finger pulse oximeters uncomfortable and restrictive. 6G Vital Radar utilizes ambient radio signals transmitted by room base stations. By analyzing phase shifts and micro-Doppler echoes reflected off the patient's skin, bedside units continuously measure heart rate variability, breathing rates, and chest wall expansion with medical-grade accuracy without a single wire touching the body.

Key Functions

  • 100% contactless, non-invasive continuous monitoring of heart rate and respiration
  • Medical-grade accuracy achieved by analyzing micro-Doppler radar reflections off human skin
  • Detecting sleep apnea, cardiac arrhythmias, and sudden infant distress without skin electrodes
  • Autonomous emergency alert generation dispatching nurses the instant vitals deteriorate
  • Ideal for elderly care, neonatal incubators, and contactless hospital patient monitoring
