Abstract: Remote sensing of biomedical and industrial parameters is very appealing. The vibration information of the human body reflects many biomedical parameters, such as pulse, breathing rate, blood pressure, and much more. In the industrial arena vibration measurements are common for malfunction detection, while remote monitoring in many cases is the only way to measure it. The speckle-based vibration monitoring approach is very modular and does not apply any constraints regarding the relative position of the body and the detection device. The optical setup doing the detection is very simple and versatile. The setup consists of a laser and a small camera. The principle is to observe the movement of the secondary speckle patterns that are generated on top of the target when it is illuminated by a spot of a laser beam. Those secondary speckle patterns are self-interfering patterns and therefore the movement detection based upon phase extraction of the optical wavefront does not require an external interferometer. The temporal trajectories of the speckles that are captured by the camera are proportional to the temporal information. Various vibration sources are imaged in different spatial pixels and thus movement separation is becoming a very simple task using the proposed concept.
Dr Yevgeny Beiderman obtained his B.Sc in Mechanical Engineering and M.Sc in Intermediate studies in Engineering from Tel-Aviv University, Israel in 1999 and 2002 respectively. Yevgeny made his Ph.D. jointly in Math and Electro-Optical Engineering at Bar-Ilan University, Israel. He stayed later for the post-doc period at the same university. Yevgeny filled various scientific and engineering positions in the industry for more than 15 years. His fields of interest are optical remote sensing, biomedical engineering, and machine learning / AI. Yevgeny is currently with the Holon Institute of Technology, Israel (HIT). Yevgeny published more than 40 papers, 2 book chapters, and filed 8 patents. Yevgeny won various international prizes for the development of remote sensing technology applications.
