Huawei, the Chinese tech giant, has now filed a new patent for a forthcoming technology that can identify respiratory infections by measuring blood oxygen or Sp02 levels. Based on blood oxygen levels, the technique can detect the existence of respiratory system infection. According to the relevant patent summary, this application implementation case provides a detection method and related equipment that is used with the first electronic equipment in order to work properly.

Many distinct testing operations are included in the testing method. This approach consists of the following steps: testing the first operation, responding to the first operation, and sending to the second electronic equipment. based on the first information, receive physiological parameter information given by the second electronic device; When the physiological parameter information is determined to meet the preset conditions, get audio information; determine the first physiological information based on the physiological parameter information and audio information; and display the first physiological information.

Blood oxygen saturation, respiratory frequency, body temperature, heart rate, and other physiological parameters are examples of data. This programme enables users to quickly detect the risk of infection in the respiratory system while ensuring the accuracy of the test findings and the equipment’s low power consumption. There are already various smartwatches on the market that use sensors to test the blood oxygen level. They are, however, not the ones on whom we can rely. We currently have adequate medical equipment for this purpose.

It will be interesting to watch how the technology works once it hits the market. Will it be able to deliver reliable information, or will we see the tag “Do not utilise the information for medical purposes!” once more? We are quite eager to put the new technology to the test. Let’s see if they can get the product to market or if it will be just another unsuccessful patent since there are already thousands of patents by various brands, but not all of them debut in the real market.
