  • Patent number: 11532400
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable media are provided for obtaining a first set of skin data from an image capture system including at least one ultraviolet (UV) image of a user's skin. Performing a correction on the skin data using a second set of skin data associated with the user. Quantifying a plurality of skin parameters of the user's skin based on the first skin data, including quantifying a bacterial load. Quantifying the bacterial load by applying a brightness filter to isolate portions of the at least one UV image containing fluorescence, applying a dust filter, identifying portions of the at least one UV image that contain fluorescence due to bacteria, and determining a quantity of bacterial load in the users skin. Determining, using a machine learning model, an output associated with a normal skin state of the user and a current skin state of the user.
