What is HeartRateMonitor?

This Android-based application utilizes the device's camera and flash to detect the user's heart rate in beats per minute. The app non-invasively measures the user's pulse by analyzing subtle changes in skin tone caused by blood flow variations under the camera's observation. This data is then translated into a numerical heart rate readout, providing users with a convenient and accessible way to monitor their physical well-being directly from their smartphone
