| Abstract: | In recent years, the concept of contactless and remote monitoring of patients has gained momentum due to its multiple advantages over traditional contact monitoring involving leads and wires. The Non-Invasive Vital Signs Monitoring Project (NIVS) aims to extract heart rate data from both healthy volunteers as well as patients in real-world hospital scenarios using normal red-green-blue (RGB) and thermal imaging cameras. NIVS aims to overcome the limitations which exist with current contact systems. This article describes the underlying scientific principles, the execution and the potential benefits of such a system in the local healthcare setting. |
