What if the camera already on your patient’s phone could take their vitals?

Przemek Jaworski is co-founder and CTO of Shen AI. Their camera-based engine reads heart rate, HRV, breathing rate and blood pressure from 30 seconds of looking into a lens – now CE-certified as a medical device in Europe. Before that, Przemek built 3D printers sold to SpaceX and Apple.

He joins Jakub Grajcar to explain how it works in plain language, what it means for remote monitoring, and where AI goes once it can read how a person feels.

🏥 Przemek’s #1 tip for growing a practice – find where patients hit friction with you, and make that step quick and easy
🩸 How a camera sees your pulse through the translucency of your skin
🎯 The second heartbeat signal almost no competitor uses, and what it adds to the reading
💡 What a good 30-second reading needs – light that isn’t behind the person, very little movement, and a clear view of the face
📱 Why remote monitoring gets easier when the device is the patient’s own phone
🤖 What’s next for AI agents once they can read how a person feels
🔥 Przemek’s way out of burnout – alternate hard focus with real time away, and trust your team with tougher responsibilities
🚗 Where this could go next – passive checks while you drive or work, flagging overfocus and eye strain before you notice them
