Abstract
A system and method for detecting medical conditions in individuals in crowded settings is described, including methods and approaches for addressing confounding issues such as variation due to external factors.
Claims20
A system for monitoring the condition of persons in an area, said system comprising:
- A plurality of cameras including at least two cameras sensitive to radiation of distinct wavelength ranges, wherein the fields of view of the at least two cameras are substantially co-registered at the area;
- A processor operatively connected to the cameras having the means to:
- acquire image data of the area;
- Identify all persons within the area;
- Examine all persons within the area according to at least one parameter indicative of their health;
- and
- Evaluating the need to send an alert in response to the evaluation of the at least one parameter.

test
A method for determining the health of each individual in an area, the method comprising:
- Gathering data from sensors that cover the area;
- Extracting data relating to each individual in the area;
- Adjusting the data based on compensation methods relevant to the data;
- Determining values of at least one health-related parameter for each individual in the area;
- Assessing the values of the health-related parameters to determine if the parameters are outside of threshold limits;
- Determining the need for an alert to be sent based on the assessment of values of health-related parameters;
- and
- Generation of an alert based upon assessment of a parameter being outside of threshold limits.
