General
Currently, the only API used in this package is for Physiology API
The functions and methods for this library should mirror the
endpoints specified by the Physiology API documentation.
Installation
Installation for the package can be done via pip:
$ pip install presage_technologies

Physiology Usage
Google Colab Demo

After installation, import the client class into your project and initialize with the API key:
from presage_technologies import Physiology
physio = Physiology("api_key_here")

Use .queue_processing() to upload a trace for processing and return an id for the upload to allow for async processing. .
id = physio.queue_processing(trace="<dictionary of trace data>", metrics=['hr', 'rr', 'hr_trace', 'rr_trace', 'hr_spec', 'rr_spec', 'hrv', 'phasic', 'rrl', 'apnea', 'ie', 'amplitude', 'baseline'])

metrics is an optional argument that expects a list, each of the above list items is optional. If the list is not supplied all metrics will be calculated.
Use .retrieve_result() with your id to return the results.
Use .queue_processing_hr_rr() to upload your video for processing and return an id for the upload to allow for async processing. You are able to upload multiple videos as you would like as long as it is within your plan limits.
video_id = physio.queue_processing_hr_rr("/path/to/video/file")

We currently recommend waiting half the length of your video to start checking whether it is not but this is not a hard limit. When you are ready to start checking for the result you can use .retrieve_result() with your video_id to return the results.
video_id = physio.queue_processing_hr_rr("/path/to/video/file", preprocess=True)

Run Preprocessing steps locally to decrease processing and network transfer times. When you are ready to start checking for the result you can use .retrieve_result() with your video_id to return the results.
video_id = physio.queue_processing_hr_rr("/path/to/video/file", preprocess=True, compress=True)

Run Preprocessing steps locally and compress the results before sending to decrease processing and network transfer times. When you are ready to start checking for the result you can use .retrieve_result() with your video_id to return the results.
data = physio.retrieve_result(video_id)

Data will return a dictionary with keys hr and rr. Both will have keys that represent the time within the video the value was recorded.
data = physio.list_uploads()

Data will return a list of dictionaries with keys id and upload_date.
Limitations
In order to ensure best performance, we recommend that the videos you process meet the following conditions. Within a 20 second window, it is ideal if there is a single foremost subject in view. That subject's gaze is mostly unchanged and looking in the general direction of the acquiring camera. The subject’s face, shoulders and chest should be visible. Well-lit, uniformly-lit, and consistently-lit environments will also ensure optimal performance. Videos must be acquired at frame rates greater than 10 frames per second.
Video format
The current API requires that input videos have a standard, RGB color encoding. We ensure support for the following formats: AVI, MOV and MP4.
ISO/Exposure/Gain
Some cameras automatically adjust exposure time, gain, ISO or f/stop in order to optimize image brightness. This can be problematic for Presage Vitals if said values vary dramatically. While Presage can deal with varying lighting changes in the recording environment, rapid lighting changes can cause ISO, gain, and exposure to vary significantly and be problematic for proper vital extraction. For optimal results, ensure the recording device is not performing rapid ISO/exposure/gain adjustments or keep the scene illumination relative constant.
Distance
Presage technology can measure vitals for a large degree of subject to camera distance. It only requires that there are at least approximately 100 camera pixels across the face and that said face is in focus. For a 12 megapixel camera, this is approximately 3-5% of the total width of the image.
Extreme imaging distances in atmospheric conditions that display visible scintillation in recorded videos can cause errors in the vital extraction.
Lighting
While Presage can deal with monochromatic visible light sources for illumination, broadband light sources covering the entire visible spectrum are ideal.
Scene illumination should not be too dark or too bright. Ensure the average recorded pixel intensity of the subject's face is above 30% of the dynamic range of the recording device without gain being applied. Also, ensure the pixels corresponding to the subject's face are not saturated. Video recorded not following these lighting guidelines could result in no vitals being obtained.
Motion
Camera motion
Although we expect to handle camera motion in the future, currently large degrees of camera motion will severely impact the ability to generate respiration rate and may impact heart rate output. For optimal results, maintain a fairly still camera position during each 20 second window in which vital measurements are desired.
Subject motion
Similar to camera motion, we have found that subject motion can degrade the ability to reliably generate a respiratory rate measurement and to a lesser degree, a heart rate measurement. It takes approximately 10 seconds of video with a stationary subject before a new vital measurement is returned. If a subject moves their head significantly, that counter resets. We recommend the subject remains still, with their gaze pointed towards the acquiring camera. The subject should also refrain from talking as this leads to errors in respiration rate measurements.
