Pulse Modality

Measure Your Heartbeat

Press your fingertip firmly over your phone's rear camera. We read the colour shift under your skin for 10 seconds, then translate it into a piece of music that mirrors your heart.

How to hold your finger

  • Lay the phone flat on a surface, camera up
  • Place finger pad-down, covering BOTH lens and flash
  • Hold still until the signal goes green, then tap Start

How your pulse becomes music

BPM

Beats per minute from your fingertip's red-channel pulse

→ song tempo

R-R Intervals

Time between successive heartbeats

→ rhythm grid

HRV

Beat-to-beat timing variability (SDNN / RMSSD)

→ groove + swing

Signal Quality

Red-channel signal-to-noise ratio

→ confidence-weighted

Tips for a clean reading

  • Steady pressure — not too hard, not too light
  • Warm fingers read better than cold ones
  • Hold still for the full 10 seconds — no talking, no repositioning
