In a world where technology is transforming the way we live, Nuralogix’s Anura™ app is pioneering a new era in health and wellness tracking. It was unveiled in January 2024 at CES in Las Vegas and made a strong impression on us.
But what exactly is behind this innovative app?
Anura™ is the world’s first and most comprehensive video-based health and wellness tracking app. This app uses your mobile device’s camera to assess your overall health and provide medical metrics based on data from a 30-second video selfie.

With Anura™, various aspects of your health can be measured, including:
Vital signs such as heart rate, respiratory rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and irregular heartbeat.
Mental health, including the mental stress index, anxiety, and depression.
Physical health, which includes body mass index (BMI), facial skin age, waist-to-hip ratio, and body shape index.
In addition, Anura™ can identify general risks such as the risk of cardiovascular disease, heart attack, and stroke, as well as metabolic risks such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertriglyceridemia.
The app also provides insights into blood biomarkers and the risk of HbA1c levels above 5.7% as well as fasting blood glucose levels above 5.5 mmol/L.
Anura promotes the app with the slogan: “Take a selfie, know your healthie!” According to the manufacturer, the app is designed to improve users’ conscious, proactive approach to their own well-being. A patent application for camera-based heart rate monitoring was filed in the U.S. as early as 2018; the system and method for non-contact blood pressure measurement were filed in 2019; and the method for detecting physiological status via camera was filed in 2020.
The Nuralogix website features several links to clinical studies on the collection of health data using smartphone-based and optical imaging technology. These are exciting innovations, and many more are still to come. How will diagnostics and medicine change in the future?
