Abstract: A system and method for reading and interpreting a wide range of nonverbal communicative cues, to include facial expression, pose, gesture, posture, and voice intonation. The output of this system is a scale between zero and one - with the scale indicating the interpretation of the nonverbal communication and accompanying text describing the interpretation. The system determines how a person intends to react and determines whether the person’s pronouncements are true or false.

Abstract: A system and method using a microphone to collect sound data produced by a potential patient's respiration and speech. The system preferably uses a microphone on a portable electronic device—such as a smart phone. The analysis of the collected data is preferably performed locally—such as by a software application running on the smartphone. The software is used to analyze the data and therefore determine and track useful parameters such as respiration rate and respiratory tidal volume. The software also analyzes phonation patterns. Using the parameters, the inventive system can detect the onset of respiratory distress.
