Abstract
The fundamental base of all traditional medical practices lies on the concept of three radial pulses. Three pulses are given the names vata, pitta and kapha by the traditional practices. Here these pulses are acquired using simple piezo electric sensor and heart beat continuously recorded using a pulse oximeter setup, an LCD display for heartbeat display. Mean factor of the three pulses are calculated with respect to the heartbeat and age of the respective subject and displayed using MATLAB. Thus the equipment is tested for 5 subjects of different ages and tested whether they are prolonged to any diseases.
