Fusing UWB and Depth Sensors for Passive and Context-Aware Vital Signs Monitoring
2021 IEEE/ACM Conference on Connected Health: Applications …, 2021•ieeexplore.ieee.org
This demonstration presents a working prototype of VitalHub, a practical solution for
longitudinal in-home vital signs monitoring. To balance the trade-offs between the
challenges related to an individual's efforts thus compliance, and robustness with vital signs
monitoring, we introduce a passive monitoring solution, which is free of any on-body device
or cooperative efforts from the user. By fusing the inputs from a pair of co-located UWB and
depth sensors, VitalHub achieves robust, passive, context-aware and privacy-preserving …

This demonstration presents a working prototype of VitalHub, a practical solution for longitudinal in-home vital signs monitoring. To balance the trade-offs between the challenges related to an individual's efforts thus compliance, and robustness with vital signs monitoring, we introduce a passive monitoring solution, which is free of any on-body device or cooperative efforts from the user. By fusing the inputs from a pair of co-located UWB and depth sensors, VitalHub achieves robust, passive, context-aware and privacy-preserving sensing. We use a COTS UWB sensor to detect chest wall displacement due to the respiration and heartbeat for vital signs extraction. We use the depth information from Microsoft Kinect to detect and locate the users in the field of view and recognize the activities of the respective users for further analysis. We have tested the prototype extensively in engineering and medical lab environments. We will demonstrate the features and performance of VitalHub using real-world data in comparison with an FDA approved medical device.
