This dataset addresses the need for standardized data in remote health monitoring, though it is incremental as it builds on existing datasets by adding new ground truths.

The authors introduced VitalVideos-Europe, a dataset of 850 participants with face videos, PPG waveforms, and blood pressure measurements, collected in diverse conditions to support remote vital sign research.

We collected a large dataset consisting of 850 unique participants. For every participant we recorded two 30 second uncompressed videos, synchronized PPG waveforms and a single blood pressure measurement. Gender, age and skin color were also registered for every participant. The dataset includes roughly equal numbers of males and females, as well as participants of all ages. While the skin color distribution could have been more balanced, the dataset contains individuals from every skin color. The data was collected in a diverse set of locations to ensure a wide variety of backgrounds and lighting conditions. In an effort to assist in the research and development of remote vital sign measurement we are now opening up access to this dataset. vitalvideos.org for all datasets.
