Noncontact Respiratory Monitoring Using Depth Sensing Cameras: A Review of Current Literature
Sensors, 2021 There is considerable interest in the noncontact monitoring of patients as it allows for reduced restriction of patients, the avoidance of single-use consumables and less patient–clinician contact and hence the reduction of the spread of disease.
