VitalWave: An End-to-End Open-Source High-Frequency Wearable Device and Data Collection Platform
We present an initial prototype for VitalWave, a novel open-source end-to-end platform consisting of a wearable device and corresponding mobile/web application capable of capturing and visualizing high-frequency sensor data. The platform includes cloud-based data processing and a web interface for data visualization and analysis. This system was designed to overcome the limitations of existing commercial wearables, which often only offer low-frequency, pre-processed data and limited raw data access. Our device samples at up to 100Hz from multiple biosensors and includes real-time mobile streaming, secure cloud storage, and integrated web-based visualization tools. Ultimately, this work serves as a foundational platform for the development of digital biomarkers and machine learning models in health applications.
