Demonstration of OHealth H1 Health Monitoring Technology at Artificial Intelligence Festival

OHealth H1 uses AI to conduct primary health screenings that could help ease the burden on stressed healthcare resources, providing better access to diagnosis and treatment.

OPPO Vietnam announced that it will participate in the exhibition during the Vietnam Artificial Intelligence Day (AI4VN) taking place from September 21 to 22 in Ho Chi Minh City. This is the first time OPPO has attended this technology event and is also an opportunity for OPPO to showcase its smart products.

OPPO's first AI smart health device, OHealth H1, will be exhibited for the first time in Vietnam. In 2020, OPPO began building a smart health ecosystem after introducing 24-hour heart rate monitoring, fitness tracking, sleep management and other health-related features on OPPO Watch.

Weighing just 95g, the OHealth H1 is slim, light and easy to hold, even children can use it easily. The simple curved shape of the H1's design is influenced by OPPO's human-centric approach to health and medical products. The sensors used to collect relevant data points are located at the back of the device, with a compact, symmetrical design that is easy to operate and complies with professional medical standards.

OHealth H1 combines six health data monitoring functions for family use, including blood oxygen measurement, ECG, cardiopulmonary diagnosis, heart rate, sleep quality and body temperature. Thanks to high-precision sensors, industry-leading health algorithms, cloud computing technology... OHealth H1 helps users collect accurate health data for all family members. This data can be used to support professional assessments from medical institutions such as hospitals and clinics.

The OHealth H1 features a self-developed piezoelectric ceramic sensor stack that functions as an electronic stethoscope. The sensor delivers enhanced signal quality and a stable frequency response for improved telemetry data measurements. Heart and lung sounds are primarily concentrated in the mid and low frequency ranges, which are typically where the signal is weakest when using a telemetry auscultation device.

By appropriately compensating for these weak frequencies, the OHealth H1 improves the clarity of heart and lung sounds, reduces environmental noise, and captures the user's heart and lung sounds accurately and clearly, allowing it to perform as well as a medical-grade stethoscope when listening to heart and lung sounds.

Blood oxygen levels measured by smartwatches are based on the level of blood oxygen saturation detected in the capillaries in the wrist. However, the number of capillaries in the wrist is much smaller than in the fingertips, which can lead to less accurate measurements.

By detecting oxygen saturation levels in fingertip capillaries using a technique known as photoplethysmography (PPG), the OHealth H1 can provide hospital-grade accuracy and can be used as a medical reference in diagnosis.

OHealth H1 can accurately estimate the core temperature of the human body by taking infrared measurements of forehead temperature and ambient room temperature along with measuring the distance between the device and the forehead (within 3cm). OHealth H1 can measure body temperature with the smallest error of 0.2oC for temperatures from 35oC to 42oC.

In addition to the OHealth H1's 6-in-1 health measurement capabilities, OPPO has also partnered with Omron, a world- leading medical device and service provider, to provide convenient, smart, and accurate blood pressure measurement. Data will be transferred to the OHealth app after users measure their blood pressure with selected Omron devices.

The OHealth H1 comes with an app that helps users make sense of the data recorded by the device. The app includes AI-powered diagnostics, daily health management, and telemedicine features to help develop health management habits and make the most of the data provided by the OHealth H1.

With OHealth H1, OPPO explores AI-assisted diagnosis based on its extensive AI research. Using precise AI algorithms, OHealth H1 will be able to identify abnormalities in ECGs or heart and lung sounds. OPPO hopes that using AI to conduct initial health screenings can help ease the burden on strained medical resources, bringing better and more equitable access to diagnosis and treatment.

For families with chronic diseases such as hypertension, COPD, the OHealth app will help them monitor their health on a daily basis. For example, the app can send targeted reminders to different users, reminding patients with chronic diseases when it is time to measure their health and helping them form a habit of monitoring their health in the long term.

Long-term data is useful in helping people better understand their recovery, monitor the effectiveness of their medications, and better prepare for the next stage of their treatment.

Telemedicine is another feature that will be included in the OHealth App in the future. OPPO hopes that the OHealth H1 and its supporting APP can eventually be used to upload personal health data to the cloud where qualified doctors can review it using the APP's built-in telemedicine functions.
