Vital signs monitoring is the systematic measurement and assessment of the essential physiological functions of the body. These measurements are considered "vital" because they provide critical information about a person's overall health status and are often the first step in any clinical evaluation.
We are excited to announce our collaboration with Intelliprove to develop a cutting-edge application that revolutionizes vital signs monitoring.
Utilizing artificial intelligence and a mobile device camera, the app can scan a service user's face to capture vital signs information without the need for physical contact or tests.
