Heart rate monitoring technology is the focus of many wearable device manufacturers. As an ordinary user, this feature is very necessary. On September 29, Xiaomi’s MIUI Weibo account published an article introducing a new feature that Xiaomi is developing: heart rate monitoring.
According to Xiaomi, heart rate is closely related to health. Xiaomi Health has added a heart rate monitoring feature. Its highlight is that it allows measurements at any time without requiring third-party apps. How is this technology achieved? Xiaomi uses the smartphone’s camera, LED flash, and AI heart rate recognition algorithm, turning the phone’s hardware and software advantages into a tool for measuring heart rate. The measurement method is also extremely simple: users only need to place their finger near the camera to start the detection.
The heart rate monitoring function can indeed help people understand their health status to some extent. If abnormalities are found in the detected data, people can also seek medical attention in time to eliminate harmful factors affecting their bodies.
Currently, the models that support this feature include Xiaomi CC9e, Xiaomi CC9 Pro, Redmi 6A, and Redmi 10X Pro. In addition to the models mentioned above, all devices with MIUI 12 support heart rate monitoring.
