Vital sign monitoring system featuring 3 accelerometers

The invention provides a system and method for measuring vital signs (e.g. SYS, DIA, SpO2, heart rate, and respiratory rate) and motion (e.g. activity level, posture, degree of motion, and arm height) from a patient. The system features: (i) first and second sensors configured to independently generate time-dependent waveforms indicative of one or more contractile properties of the patient's heart; and (ii) at least three motion-detecting sensors positioned on the forearm, upper arm, and a body location other than the forearm or upper arm of the patient. Each motion-detecting sensor generates at least one time-dependent motion waveform indicative of motion of the location on the patient's body to which it is affixed. A processing component, typically worn on the patient's body and featuring a microprocessor, receives the time-dependent waveforms generated by the different sensors and processes them to determine: (i) a pulse transit time calculated using a time difference between features in two separate time-dependent waveforms, (ii) a blood pressure value calculated from the time difference, and (iii) a motion parameter calculated from at least one motion waveform.

Dual mode digital imaging and camera system

A dual mode digital imaging system has a still processing mode that produces an output image in a first color space and a motion processing mode that produces an output image in a second color space, in particular a first color space that is RGB and a second color space that is YUV. The digital imaging system includes a dual mode digital camera for use with a computer and a processing application for running on the computer, wherein the motion mode processing is relatively less complex than the still mode processing although at least one common control parameter is used to control both modes. The motion mode processing, which is performed using algorithms and software approaches designed to minimize processing time, nonetheless produces an entirely adequate relatively low resolution YUV image appropriate for applications such as videoconferencing. The still mode processing, on the other hand, uses more elaborate algorithms to optimize the image quality of a relatively high resolution RGB output image.

Compensating for motion induced artifacts in a physiological signal extracted from a single video

What is disclosed is a system and method for compensating for motion induce artifacts in a physiological signal obtained from a video. In one embodiment, a video of a first and second region of interest of a subject being monitored for a desired physiological function is captured by a video device. The first region is an area of exposed skin wherein a desired signal corresponding to the physiological function can be registered. The second region is an area where movement is likely to induce motion artifacts into that signal. The video is processed to isolate pixels in the image frames associated with these regions. Pixels of the first region are processed to obtain a time-series signal. A physiological signal is extracted from the time-series signal. Pixels of the second region are analyzed to identify motion. The physiological signal is processed to compensate for the identified motion.
