A method is provided for acquiring and
transmitting biometric data (e.g., vital signs) of a user, where the data is
analyzed to determine whether the user is suffering from a viral infection,
such as COVID-19. The method includes using a pulse oximeter to acquire at
least pulse and blood oxygen saturation percentage, which is transmitted
wirelessly to a smartphone. To ensure that the data is accurate, an
accelerometer within the smartphone is used to measure movement of the
smartphone and/or the user. Once accurate data is acquired, it is uploaded to
the cloud (or host), where the data is used (alone or together with other vital
signs) to determine whether the user is suffering from (or likely to suffer
from) a viral infection, such as COVID-19. Depending on the specific
requirements, the data, changes thereto, and/or the determination can be used
to alert medical staff and take corresponding actions.

ABSTRACT
A method is provided for acquiring and transmitting bio
metric data ( e.g. , vital signs ) of a user , where the data is
analyzed to determine whether the user is suffering from a
viral infection , such as COVID -19.The method includes
using a pulse oximeter to acquire at least pulse and blood
oxygen saturation percentage , which is transmitted wire
lessly to a smartphone . To ensure that the data is accurate , an accelerometer within the smartphone is used to measure
movement of the smartphone and / or the user . Once accurate
data is acquired , it is uploaded to the cloud ( or host ) , where
the data is used ( alone or together with other vital signs ) to
determine whether the user is suffering from ( or likely to
suffer from ) a viral infection , such as COVID - 19 . Depend ing on the specific requirements , the data , changes thereto , and / or the determination can be used to alert medical staff
and take corresponding actions.
Patent Registration #3: System and Method for Using, Biometric, and Displaying Biometric Data, United States
Filed: April 24, 2017; Published: August 10, 2017.
A method is provided for processing and displaying biometric data of a user, either alone or together (in synchronization) with other data, such as video data of the user during a time that the biometric data was acquired. The method includes storing biometric data so that it is linked to an identifier and at least one time-stamp (e.g., a start time, a sample rate, etc.), and storing video data so that it is linked to the identifier and at least one time-stamp (e.g., a start time). By storing data in this fashion, biometric data can be displayed (either in real-time or delayed) in synchronization with video data, and biometric data can be searched to identify at least one biometric event. Video corresponding to the biometric event can then be displayed, either alone or together with at least one biometric of the user during the biometric event.
