Facepulse - MATLAB and Simulink Student Design Challenge 2013
Facepulse is a software chronically measuring your heart rate with only a webcam.
Real-time pulse monitoring using facial imaging is very popular recently, with several applications on mobile platforms. In my opinion, it is more important to implement it on desktop computers or laptops, because that will enable chronic monitoring. However, I was unable to find such a software, so I decided to make one by myself.
