Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2015037547
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for performing a medical diagnosis for a subject of interest using an RGB video camera and a spot radiometer in a non-contact, remote sensing environment.SOLUTION: Video images 402 of a subject of interest in need of a medical diagnosis are captured using an RGB video camera 212 in real time. The video images 402 are analyzed to identify a region of exposed skin 102 for which desired measurements are obtained. A relative position of a spot radiometer 209 is then adjusted such that the spot radiometer 209 can measure incident radiation at a desired wavelength range from the identified region of exposed skin 102. The measurements are then used to perform a medical diagnosis for the subject.
