  • Patent number: 11574532
    Abstract: A visible-light-image physiological monitoring system with thermal detecting assistance is disclosed. The system takes a visible-light image and a thermal image of a body at the same time. A processing unit identifies a body feature of the visible-light image and determines a coordinate of the feature. In a learning mode, an initial temperature of the body feature is determined from the thermal image according to the coordinate of the body feature. After then, a physiological status monitoring mode is executed to monitor the temperature changes of the body feature and output an alarm when the temperature is determined to be abnormal. Therefore, a monitoring accuracy of the visible-light-image physiological monitoring system is increased and avoids transmitting false alarms or no alarms.
