Posted by unlocker under News on Monday Jan 31, 2011

The modern and latest technology never failed to wow us how it evolved throughout the years. From a device that allow people to communicate, it evolved into a gadget that enable users to end text messages and soon e-mails, instant messaging, and now video calling where people can see each other and talk – real time.

Our mobile phones become gadgets that people spend a lot of time with. Especially in the advent of modern smartphone or specifically known as the revolutionary device – iPhone. This particular device changed the roles from being a traditional tool for communication into something that could do so much more than just making and receiving calls.

The star of this article is a new application for iPhone that can be considered as revolutionary. There are a lot of medically-inclined applications for iPhones such as the Pulse Phone app, which measures your pulse and heart rate using the handset’s camera and flash.

However, the new iPhonECG kit from AliveCor is an app that will transform your iPhone into a functional and high quality portable ECG (electrocardiogram) machine. An ECG machine is used to record the electrical activity in your heart using a bunch of electrodes plugged in to your skin. iPhonECG comes with a clip-on case that has two electrodes at its back. Once you attach it to your iPhone, the electrodes get the readings from your heart and transfer it to the custom app running on the iPhone. It uses Bluetooth to send the recorded data to the app.
