  • Patent number: 11606607
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a home infotainment system having function of non-contact imaging-based physiological signal measurement. In the present invention, an image-based physiological signal (IBPS) measuring device is integrated with a television, and is configured for capture at least one image frame of a user who is watching the television. As such, after detecting detects a face portion from the image frame, the IBPS measuring device is able to subsequently extract at least one physiological signal from the face portion. Consequently, after the physiological signal is applied with at least one signal process by a display processor of the television or the IBPS measuring device, physiological indices of the user are hence calculated, and are subsequently applied with data processes of data storing, data transmitting, and/or displaying the physiological indices by a form of graphs, or diagrams, and/or numeric values.

  • Publication number: 20220301160
    Abstract: A health management system using contactless physiological measurement technology is disclosed. The health management system principally comprises a camera and a first processor, of which the camera is faced to a user for capturing a user image. The first processor is particularly configured to have a face detection unit and an activity index calculating unit therein. By such arrangement, after receiving the user image from the camera, the first processor detects a face portion from the user image, thereby subsequently extracting a PPG signal from the face portion. Consequently, after completing at least one process of the PPG signal, multiple indexes for describing a user's health activity are generated. The health activity indexes include health index, activity index, stability index, relaxation index, metabolism index, and balance index. Therefore, the first processor achieves an evaluation of the user's health activity state according to the forgoing health activity indexes.

  • Patent number: 11213256
    Abstract: A biological image processing method is provided. The method acquires first time-frequency data from an image data; processing the first time-frequency data into the second time-frequency data using a filter module; and converting the second time-frequency data into a time domain signal. The filter module is obtained by machine learning, and is trained using a first sample time-frequency signal as input and a second sample time-frequency signal as output, wherein the noise of the time domain signal corresponding to the second sample time-frequency signal is less than the noise of the time domain signal corresponding to the first sample time-frequency signal. A biological information detection device is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20210106232
    Abstract: Disclosures of the present invention describe a non-contact physiological signal measuring device comprising a light sensing unit and a signal processing module, wherein the light sensing unit is adopted for collecting a scattered light from a surface of a sensing portion of a subject. After receiving the scattered light by a signal receiving unit of the signal processing module, a signal processing unit can subsequently obtain physiological characteristic(s) after applying signal process to a physiological signal with respect to the scattered light. Particularly, this novel non-contact physiological signal measuring device does not include any one camera or image capturing unit, such that the subject is able to receive a physiological signal measurement in the case of having well a personal privacy protection as well as preventing the subject's skin from being hurt.
