Abstract
The research group of Brian Anthony has several projects related to the remote sensing of vitals, designed for patients spanning from infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) to elderly confined to the home. Many of which utilize a similar collection of sensors designed to collect data without making physical contact with the patient. Despite similarities between the systems, each was developed independently of the other and are largely incompatible, making it difficult to collaborate by sharing sensors and code. An agnostic testing system was developed from Ivan Goryachev’s Kiosk for Non-Contact Vital Sign Detection to incorporate RGB camera, thermal camera, radar, and auxiliary sensors for the measuring of heart rate, respiratory rate, body temperature, blood oxygen saturation, motion performance, ambient temperature and relative humidity, and position, with options to add more sensors. This system will act as a plug-and-play prototyping system for current and future projects of any remote vitals sensing configuration.
