US 2023/0267609 A1 · TEMPERATURE MONITORING WITH A THERMAL CAMERA

Abstract

An example system includes a thermal camera, a memory, and processing circuitry coupled to the thermal camera and the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire a core temperature of a patient and acquire a first thermal image associated with the patient. The processing circuitry is configured to determine, based on the first thermal image, a first sensed temperature of a location associated with the patient. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a core temperature delta between the core temperature and the first sensed temperature. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire a second thermal image associated with the patient. The processing circuitry is configured to determine, based on the second thermal image, a second sensed temperature. The processing circuitry is configured to determine, based on the second sensed temperature and the core temperature delta, a measure of the core temperature.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

a thermal camera;
a depth camera;
a memory;
and
processing circuitry coupled to the thermal camera, the depth camera, and the memory, the processing circuitry being configured to:
at a first time, via the depth camera, acquire a first distance between at least one of the depth camera or the thermal camera and a patient;
control a first angle associated with a region of interest (ROI) based on the first distance;
acquire, via the thermal camera, a first thermal image associated with the patient;
determine, based on the first thermal image, a first sensed temperature of a location associated with the patient;
acquire, at a second time different than the first time via the depth camera, a second distance between at least one of the depth camera or the thermal camera and the patient;
control a second angle associated with the ROI based on the second distance;
acquire, via the thermal camera, a second thermal image associated with the patient;
and
determine, based on the second thermal image, a second sensed temperature of the location.
