Australian and Iraqi engineers have developed an artificial intelligence-based system that permits contactless measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressures using video cameras.  The technique captures video data from two forehead regions over a 10 second interval and uses artificial intelligence algorithms to extract estimates of the subject’s blood pressure that are 90% accurate when compared to those gathered with conventional arm cuffs.  The same researchers have worked on measuring other vital signs including respirator rates, oxygen saturations, body temperatures, and jaundice.  All of this in support of telemedicine that is rapidly becoming more sophisticated.
