Abstract—The Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is the most common cardiovascular disease due to the risk of heart-related complications. Currently, pulse diagnosis in Chinese medicine is an important method to recognition tool recognition of CHD. Here we designed pulse signal acquisition and recognition system based on the pressure sensors. The sensing units of the pulse signal utilized the ionic gel-based pressure sensors. Combined with the acquisition circuit board and convolution neural networks, the pulse signal acquisition and recognition system was established to identify CHD. This developed system provides an idea for the diagnosis of CHD in the homes of middle-aged and elderly people, and accelerated the development of the modernization of Chinese medicine.
