Motion-compensated noncontact imaging photoplethysmography to monitor cardiorespiratory status during exercise
journal contribution
posted on 2016-08-03, 09:31 authored by Yu Sun, Sijung HuSijung Hu, V Azorin-Peris, Stephen Greenwald, Jonathon Chambers, Yisheng ZhuWith the advance of computer and photonics technology, imaging photoplethysmography [(PPG), iPPG]
can provide comfortable and comprehensive assessment over a wide range of anatomical locations. However,
motion artifact is a major drawback in current iPPG systems, particularly in the context of clinical assessment.
To overcome this issue, a new artifact-reduction method consisting of planar motion compensation and blind
source separation is introduced in this study. The performance of the iPPG system was evaluated through the
measurement of cardiac pulse in the hand from 12 subjects before and after 5 min of cycling exercise. Also, a
12-min continuous recording protocol consisting of repeated exercises was taken from a single volunteer. The
physiological parameters (i.e., heart rate, respiration rate), derived from the images captured by the iPPG system,
exhibit functional characteristics comparable to conventional contact PPG sensors. Continuous recordings from
the iPPG system reveal that heart and respiration rates can be successfully tracked with the artifact reduction
method even in high-intensity physical exercise situations. The outcome from this study thereby leads to a new
avenue for noncontact sensing of vital signs and remote physiological assessment, with clear applications in triage
and sports training.
