AutonomicScope

Estimates heart rate, HRV (RMSSD, SDNN), frequency-domain PRV (LF/HF), respiration, and pupillary light reflex from your phone camera alone — no external sensors.
⚠ Experimental, not medical. Not FDA cleared, not validated against clinical devices. HR is reasonably established via camera PPG; HRV, RR, and LF/HF are rougher estimates, and the PLR test is a consumer-camera approximation — not clinical pupillometry. Don't use any of this for diagnosis; consult a clinician for health concerns.
Camera — Fingertip PPG
Cover the rear camera and flash completely with your fingertip. Hold still, light but steady pressure.

Pupillary Light Reflex (PLR)
"Right Eye" / "Left Eye" below refer to your own right and left eye (not mirrored, i.e. not left/right as they appear in the on-screen preview).
Uses the front camera — run separately from the finger scan.
Pupil mm is estimated by using average adult iris diameter (~11.7mm, anatomically stable, an established calibration technique in eye-tracking research) as a built-in ruler, then locating the pupil's dark boundary in the image via pixel-brightness analysis. This second step is experimental and hasn't been validated against real hardware — treat these mm values as a rough estimate, not a measurement.
Guided Eye Movement & Fixation Stability
Uses spoken audio cues and a tone for direction changes — not on-screen text — since you can't read the screen while looking away from it. Screens gross extraocular movement in four directions, then a brief fixation-stability check. Not a substitute for a clinical exam; cannot detect true ocular torsion (rotation) or fast (VNG-grade) nystagmus, which need equipment beyond a consumer webcam.
Known limitation: downward gaze narrows the visible eyelid opening in a way that's hard to tell apart from a genuine blink using this front-camera technique, so the "down" direction is tracked less reliably than up/right/left — sometimes it registers, sometimes it doesn't, across otherwise-identical conditions. Up, right, and left have tested reliably across lighting, distance, and phone-angle variations. Treat a "down" result here with lower confidence than the other three directions.
Turn your device sound on. Listen for the spoken direction and tone — you don't need to read anything during the test.
