Abstract
There is provided a recognition system adaptable to a portable device or a wearable device. The recognition system senses a body heat using a thermal sensor, and performs functions such as the living body recognition, image denoising and body temperature prompting according to detected results.
Claims20
A face recognition system, comprising:
- a thermal sensor configured to acquire and output a thermal image with a first field of view;
- an image sensor configured to acquire and output an image frame with a second field of view;
- and
- a processor configured to perform a face recognition according to the image frame, and perform a living body recognition according to a regional heat distribution in the thermal image corresponding to facial features of a face image in the image frame.

A gesture recognition system, comprising:
- a thermal sensor configured to acquire and output a thermal image with a first field of view;
- an image sensor configured to acquire and output an image frame with a second field of view;
- and
- a processor configured to determine a processed region in the thermal image, and perform a gesture recognition only according to an image region in the image frame corresponding to the processed region in the thermal image.

A medical monitoring system, comprising:
- a wearable accessory, comprising:
- a thermal sensor configured to measure a body temperature;
- and
- a transmitter configured to send a temperature message of the body temperature and a label message of the wearable accessory;
- and
- a central computer system configured to
- receive and store the temperature message, and
- provide a warning message associated with the label message when the body temperature indicated by the temperature message exceeds a predetermined range.
5 more elements
A body temperature monitoring device, comprising:
- a wearable accessory configured to be worn on a human body;
- a thermal sensor disposed in the wearable accessory, and configured to measure a basal body temperature of the human body;
- a display disposed in the wearable accessory, and configured to prompt an ovulatory phase;
- and
- a processor disposed in the wearable accessory, and configured to
- record the basal body temperature every day, and
