Abstract: In an example, the present invention provides a method for identifying a status of a user and providing feedback to the user based upon the status of the user. In an example, the method includes generating an electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) signal from an RF generating device and emitting the electromagnetic RF signal into a spatial region of a user. In an example, the method includes detecting a back scattered RF signal, using an RF receiving antenna, from the user and converting the back scattered RF signal from an RF analog signal into an RF digital signal.

Abstract: In an example, the technique also detects and measures vital signs of each human target by continuous, non-intrusive method. In an example, the vital signs of interest include a heart rate and a respiratory rate, which can provide valuable information about the human's wellness. Additionally, the heart rate and respiratory rate can also be used to identify a particular person, if more than two target humans living in a home. Of course, there can be other variations, modifications, and alternatives.
