6. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR OPTIMAL FUNCTIONING

For the best experience when using Bluetooth-connected devices with the ePokratis MedAiConnect app, it is recommended to follow these technical requirements:

  1. Bluetooth Version Compatibility: Digital devices should use the same Bluetooth version as the mobile device to avoid compatibility issues or reduced connection speeds due to version differences.
  2. Device Hardware Quality: The Bluetooth module of the digital device should be high-quality and optimized for quick pairing, minimizing delays in the connection process.
  3. Battery Level/Settings Requirements: To ensure a stable and immediate Bluetooth connection, the digital device’s battery level should be above 30 percent. Additionally, the mobile device should not be in power-saving mode while obtaining AI stress level measurements.
  4. Device Interference: The presence of other nearby Bluetooth or wireless devices may cause interference and delays in connection. It is recommended to disable other nearby Bluetooth devices to reduce interference.
  5. Signal Interference: Bluetooth operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, which is also used by other devices (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, microwaves, wireless peripherals). Interference from these devices may delay connection times. Connecting is recommended in areas with less wireless traffic.
  6. Crowded Bluetooth Environments: In environments with many Bluetooth devices (e.g., busy areas), the mobile device may experience delays in recognizing and connecting to the digital device’s Bluetooth.
  7. Multiple Simultaneous Bluetooth Connections: Multiple active Bluetooth connections (e.g., headphones, wearable devices, or other smart devices) may slow the connection process for new devices, as the mobile device needs to manage each different connection simultaneously.
  8. Distance and Signal Strength: For a stable connection, the digital device should be placed close to the mobile device. Connection may delay or weaken when devices are far apart.
  9. Background Processes: Running multiple apps or processes in the mobile device’s background may hinder Bluetooth detection and connection. For optimal performance, reduce background processes during setup.
  10. Software Updates: Regularly check for updates for both the digital device and the mobile device, as updates often improve connectivity and speed.
  11. Device Settings: Ensure the digital device is in pairing mode. Adjust connection settings (e.g., pairing prompts or security options) as needed for smooth connection. If issues persist, restart both devices to clear any temporary issues with the Bluetooth stack or connection cache.

To ensure optimal accuracy for AI stress level measurements, please follow the instructions below:

  1. Device Setup
  • Ensure the mobile device’s battery level is at least 30 percent and disable power-saving mode.
  • Check that the camera lenses are clean and free from scratches or obstructions.
  • Place the device on a stable base approximately 30 cm (about 12 inches) away from your face.
  • Align the device so that the front camera is at eye level and parallel to your face, ensuring a clear and stable image.
  • Use a stable base to prevent any movement or shaking of the device during measurement.
  1. Face Positioning
  • Sit still and avoid movements during the measurement.
  • Keep your feet flat on the floor and do not cross your legs.
  • Ensure that your face is not obscured by hair or accessories, such as hats, sunglasses, or masks.
  • Avoid talking or making significant facial expressions and remain focused on the screen until the measurement is complete.
  1. Environmental Conditions
  • Ensure even lighting on your face and avoid environments with multiple or conflicting light sources.
  • For best results, position yourself with a single light source directed toward your face. Choose a location where no direct light shines on the camera, such as sitting near a wall.
  • Avoid direct sunlight exposure on the camera.
  • Make sure the background remains stable and avoid reflective surfaces or objects (e.g., mirrors, glass, or shiny objects) in the area.
  • Maintain an adequate level of lighting. Prefer a cool light source (above 4500K) and avoid monochromatic lighting.
