Heartrate tracking is performed entirely optically without the subject being required to wear any monitoring equipment by processing a combination of signals representing frames of video of the sinusoidal motion of a subject's facial skin color changes captured by both IR and visible light (e.g., RGB—red/green/blue) cameras. The IR and RGB graphs that result from the processing are perfectly phase-shifted so that when the IR signal is going down in amplitude, the RGB signal is going up. Such phase-shifting enables the optical heartrate tracking to utilize diverse input feeds so that a tracked signal is accepted as the user's true heartrate when both IR and RGB signals are well correlated.
