Could you build this?
No Implementing clinical-grade remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) from webcam video requires specialized signal processing, biomechanical optics understanding, and mathematical algorithms.
What it would actually take: Requires computer vision for facial landmark tracking (MediaPipe/OpenCV) coupled with Plane-Orthogonal-to-Skin (POS) algorithms, CHROM algorithms, and Butterworth bandpass filtering on spatial-temporal RGB signals to extract pulse waves. Specialized expertise in biomedical optics, signal processing, and artifact suppression (for movement and ambient light changes) is required.
