Non-Contact Vision-Based Techniques of Vital Sign Monitoring: Systematic Review

Abstract

The development of non-contact techniques for monitoring human vital signs has significant potential to improve patient care in diverse settings. By facilitating easier and more convenient monitoring, these techniques can prevent serious health issues and improve patient outcomes, especially for those unable or unwilling to travel to traditional healthcare environments. This systematic review examines recent advancements in non-contact vital sign monitoring techniques, evaluating publicly available datasets and signal preprocessing methods. Additionally, we identified potential future research directions in this rapidly evolving field.
