아누라, Anura, 뉴라로직스, CES

 

세계 최대 IT·전자 전시회 'CES 2025'가 열린 미국 라스베이거스 컨벤션 센터(LVCC) 노스홀에 마련된 디지털 헬스 스타트업 뉴라로직스 전시관을 찾았다.

가장 눈에 띄는 기술은 얼굴을 스캔해 건강 상태와 스트레스 정도를 측정해주는 아누라(Anura)였다. AI 카메라로 얼굴 피부 아래 혈관 정보를 분석해 심장 박동을 측정한다.

기자가 미리 준비된 휴대전화 앞에 앉자 애플리케이션이 '얼굴을 가까이 비춰달라'고 요청했다. 지시에 따라 얼굴을 휴대전화 가까이 갖다 대자 얼굴 테두리를 따라 30초간 기다리라는 알림이 떴다.


짧은 시간이 지난 후 화면에는 데이터를 분석하고 있다는 문구가 떴다. 5초 후 맥박수, 호흡률(분당 호흡수), 혈압이 표시됐다.

기자의 1분당 심장 박동은 68번, 호흡은 20회로 측정됐다. 카메라 인식만으로 혈압도 이완기 75, 수축기 110이라고 알려줬다. 단순 비교는 어렵지만, 4개월 전 측정한 혈압은 이완기 70, 수축기 110이었다.

'정신'(Mental) 카테고리를 선택하자 스트레스 지수도 숫자로 표시됐다. 화살표는 1과 5 사이 3.4에 멈췄다. 스트레스 수치가 낮은 1~2는 녹색 계열, 3은 노란색, 4~5는 적색이었다.

 

 

The world's largest IT and electronic exhibition "CES 2025" was visited by digital health startup Neuralogics at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) North Hall.

The most notable technology was Anura, which measures health conditions and stress levels by scanning the face. It measures the heartbeat by analyzing blood vessel information under the skin with an AI camera.

When the reporter sat down in front of the mobile phone, the application asked him to "shape his face closer." When the reporter put his face close to the mobile phone according to the instructions, a notification came out asking him to wait 30 seconds along the face border.


After a short period of time, the message "Data is being analyzed" appeared on the screen. Five seconds later, pulse rate, respiration rate (breathing rate per minute), and blood pressure were displayed.

The reporter's heartbeat was measured 68 times per minute and respiration was measured 20 times. The camera recognized that the blood pressure was 75 in diastolic phase and 110 in systolic phase. Although simple comparison is difficult, the blood pressure measured four months ago was 70 in diastolic phase and 110 in systolic phase.

When I chose the "mental" category, the stress index was also displayed as a number. The arrow stopped at 3.4 between 1 and 5. Green color for 1 and 2 with low stress levels, yellow color for 3 and red color for 4 and 5.
