Binah iOS SDK Developer Portal

Welcome to the Binah.ai Developer Portal!

This portal provides information about the API and the steps required for integration with the Binah.ai SDK. The Binah.ai SDK utilizes PPG technology to compute health indicators either by capturing a short video stream from the user’s face or finger, or by analyzing data from external PPG devices.

What's New in This Version

1. Continuous Measurements

SDK 5.2 introduces continuous measurement using the Polar Verity SenseTM. Polar Verity Sense is an optical device that offers users maximum freedom during usage. It doesn't require users to focus on the measurement or look directly into the camera, allowing them to multitask while monitoring their health indicators. The Polar Verity Sense device can be used for a single spot measurement or for continuous measurements spanning hours and more.

For additional information about Polar Verity Sense, visit the Polar website.

For 'best practices' instructions on how to take measurements using the Polar Verity Sense, please consult Binah.ai's best practices for taking a measurement.

2. Updated Vital Signs Models

The AI models for Blood Pressure and Hemoglobin have been updated based on our latest research and data.

3. Downloadable Alerts File

The alerts list is now available for download in JSON format for your convenience. See the Alerts List page for more details.

4. Supporting iOS 14 or Later

Starting from this version, running the Binah Framework requires iOS 14 or later.

Known Limitations

  • Instruct the user to wait for 3 minutes between measurements to prevent device overheating.
  • Breathing rate results may exhibit fluctuations during finger measurement.
  • The SDK must have a valid internet connection on the first launch to obtain license information. If an issue occurs, instruct the user to check their network connection and recreate the SDK session.
  • Hemoglobin and Hemoglobin A1c are under research.
  • Polar pairing issues:
    • During the discovery process, some other Polar devices might appear in the device list as Polar Verity Sense. Instruct users to pair only with Polar Verity Sense devices.
    • In some cases, repeated connections to the same device fail. In such cases, instruct the user to open the iOS Bluetooth settings, find the device, open its settings and choose to 'forget' it. If the problem persists, the user should verify the official Polar Flow app successfully pairs with this device and follow the instructions on https://support.polar.com/en/support/pairing_polar_device_with_flow_app_fails_now_what.

Getting the SDK and a License Key

In order to build and run the sample application, you must have the SDK binary and a valid license key. To obtain the SDK binary and the license key, please contact us through our website at https://www.binah.ai/contact/.

Sample Application

Binah.ai has prepared a sample application that demonstrates the integration with the SDK. The purpose of this app is to facilitate the development process of a new application. It is highly recommended as a starting point for developers to familiarize themselves with the API. For more information, please refer to the Sample App page.
