Backgound: This PPG (Photoplethysmogram) dataset was build with an experimental environment within the context of the NSF/RNP U.S.-Brazil HealthSense project. https://www.healthsenseproject.net/
This dataset was employed to test the BEAT - (Biosignal Enhanced Authenticator) authentication system. An authentication system based on PPG Biosignals.
Sensor employed in captures - Gravity: Heart Rate Monitor
Sensor technical details are available at:Gravity: Heart Rate Monitor - Datasheet
Sensor Schematic is available at:Gravity: Heart Rate Monitor - Schematic
MCU employed in captures is - Arduino Uno
Datasets encompass data from 30 healthy individuals from 23 to 53 years old and with no record of cardiac issues. Each individual had their PPG signal collected and recorded in two positions: standing and sitting. The NR2/UFPR#1 dataset contains data from the seated individuals, whereas the NR2/UFPR#2 dataset contains data from standing individuals. User registrations were made at different time as would occur in a real situation. Datasets hold three-minute sample per individual.
