Abstract
Systems and methods are proposed for non-contact monitoring of spatio-temporal mechanics comprising motion patterns of respiratory muscles, lungs and diaphragm. The depth capable sensors system is comprised of modules, including a depth estimation module, a reference shape generation module, a region of interest shape estimation module, and a shape comparison module. A recommender module is optionally included. The acquisition of spatio-temporal respiratory mechanic data comprising a time varying sequence of spatially dependent representations of the respiratory mechanics of the subject are processed for identifying differences between the subject's actual respiratory mechanics and desired mechanics that can improve the health of the subject, or identify particular maladies.
