User's mental state is concerned gradually, during the interaction course of human robot. As the measurement and identification method of psychological state, tension, has certain practical significance role. At presents there is no…
Respiratory ailments afflict a wide range of people and manifests itself through conditions like asthma and sleep apnea. Continuous monitoring of chronic respiratory ailments is seldom used outside the intensive care ward due to the large…
Goal: A new method for heart rate monitoring using photoplethysmography (PPG) during physical activities is proposed. Methods: It jointly estimates spectra of PPG signals and simultaneous acceleration signals, utilizing the multiple…
The accuracy with which the human proprioceptive system estimates hand speed is not well understood. To investigate this, we designed an experiment using hobby-grade mechatronics parts and integrated it as a laboratory exercise in a large…
The measurement of the pulse wave has proven to be a vital tool in medical diagnosis. Whereby most pulse wave measurements are carried out at extremities, this work proposes a system for measuring the pulse wave and the Pulse Arrival Time…
Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG), or the remote monitoring of a subject's heart rate using a camera, has seen a shift from handcrafted techniques to deep learning models. While current solutions offer substantial performance gains, we…
Breathing signal monitoring can provide important clues for human's physical health problems. Comparing to existing techniques that require wearable devices and special equipment, a more desirable approach is to provide contact-free and…
Abdominal sounds (ABS) have been traditionally used for assessing gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. However, the assessment requires a trained medical professional to perform multiple abdominal auscultation sessions, which is…
According to the Lancet report on the global burden of disease published in October 2020, air pollution is among the five highest risk factors for global health, reducing life expectancy on average by 20 months. This paper describes a…
This manuscript contains a description and basic principles for observing inaccessible areas using low cost, easily deployed equipment. The basic premise is to suspend a tiny video camera at an altitude of 10 - 200 meters over the area to…
We demonstrate the feasibility of the radar-based measurement of body movements in scenarios involving multiple students using a pair of 79-GHz millimeter-wave radar systems with array antennas. We quantify the body motion using the Doppler…
Children diagnosed with anxiety disorders are taught a range of strategies to navigate situations of heightened anxiety. Techniques such as deep breathing and repetition of mantras are commonly employed, as they are known to be calming and…
Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) is an attractive camera-based health monitoring method that can measure the heart rhythm from facial videos. Many well-established deep-learning models have been reported to measure heart rate (HR) and…
Background: Several studies have shown that both respiratory and cardiac motion can be extracted from the Pilot Tone (PT) signal successfully. However, most of these studies were performed in healthy volunteers. In addition, validating PT…
We develop and evaluate a respiratory rate estimation algorithm that utilizes data from pressure-sensitive mat (PSM) technology for continuous patient monitoring in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). An analysis of the random effect of…
Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) allows for noncontact monitoring of blood volume changes from a camera by detecting minor fluctuations in reflected light. Prior applications of rPPG focused on face videos. In this paper we explored the…
This paper demonstrates a variation on the classic Kundt's tube experiment for measuring the speed of sound. The speed of sound in air is measured using a smartphone and a cardboard tube, making the experiment very economical in terms of…
Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) offers a state-of-the-art, non-contact methodology for estimating human pulse by analyzing facial videos. Despite its potential, rPPG methods can be susceptible to various artifacts, such as noise,…
A non-invasive method for the monitoring of heart activity can help to reduce the deaths caused by heart disorders such as stroke, arrhythmia and heart attack. The human voice can be considered as a biometric data that can be used for…
Hypertension is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The ability to diagnose and treat hypertension in the ambulatory population is hindered by limited access and poor adherence to current methods of monitoring blood…
