Monitoring breathing rates and patterns helps in the diagnosis and potential avoidance of various health problems. Current solutions for respiratory monitoring, however, are usually invasive and/or limited to medical facilities. In this…
Hand hygiene has long been promoted as the most effective way to prevent the transmission of infection. However, due to the low compliance and quality of hand hygiene reported in previous studies, constant monitoring of healthcare workers'…
Remote heart rate measurement is an increasingly concerned research field, usually using remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) to collect heart rate information through video data collection. However, in certain specific scenarios (such as low…
Today's diagnostics include devices such as pulse oximeters, blood pressure monitors, and temperature measurements. These devices provide vital information to medical personnel when making treatment decisions. Drawing inspiration from the…
This study proposes a sensing method using a millimeter-wave array radar and a depth camera to measure pulse waves at multiple sites on the human body. Using a three-dimensional shape model of the target human body measured by the depth…
This paper proposes a novel method for human hands tracking using data from an event camera. The event camera detects changes in brightness, measuring motion, with low latency, no motion blur, low power consumption and high dynamic range.…
We propose a novel heart rate (HR) estimation method from facial videos that dynamically adapts the HR pulse extraction algorithm to separately deal with noise from 'rigid' head motion and 'non-rigid' facial expression. We first identify…
In post-covid19 world, radio frequency (RF)-based non-contact methods, e.g., software-defined radios (SDR)-based methods have emerged as promising candidates for intelligent remote sensing of human vitals, and could help in containment of…
The security of private information is becoming the bedrock of an increasingly digitized society. While the users are flooded with passwords and PINs, these gold-standard explicit authentications are becoming less popular and valuable.…
Vital signs such as pulse rate and breathing rate are currently measured using contact probes. But, non-contact methods for measuring vital signs are desirable both in hospital settings (e.g. in NICU) and for ubiquitous in-situ health…
Breathing disorders such as sleep apnea is a critical disorder that affects a large number of individuals due to the insufficient capacity of the lungs to contain/exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide to ensure that the body is in the stable…
This study proposes a method for radar-based identification of individuals using a combination of their respiratory and heartbeat features. In the proposed method, the target individual's respiratory features are extracted using the…
Human heartbeat can be measured using several different ways appropriately based on the patient condition which includes contact base such as measured by using instruments and non-contact base such as computer vision assisted techniques.…
Monitoring respiratory health with the use of channel state information (CSI) has shown promising results. Many existing methods focus on monitoring only the respiratory rate, while others focus on monitoring the motion of the chest as a…
Heart rate and respiratory rate measurement is a vital step for diagnosing many diseases. Non-contact camera based physiological measurement is more accessible and convenient in Telehealth nowadays than contact instruments such as fingertip…
In this study, we present a non-contact respiratory anomaly detection method using incoherent light-wave signals reflected from the chest of a mechanical robot that can breathe like human beings. In comparison to existing radar and…
Heart rate is an important physiological indicator of human health status. Existing remote heart rate measurement methods typically involve facial detection followed by signal extraction from the region of interest (ROI). These SOTA methods…
In this paper, we explore the use of channel state information (CSI) from a WiFi system to estimate the breathing rate of a person in a room. In order to extract WiFi CSI components that are sensitive to breathing, we propose to consider…
