Abstract

An imaging system includes a light sensor, a pulse detection imaging (PDI) circuit, and an image processing unit. The light sensor generates one or both of an image signal and a pulse signal. The pulse PDI circuit includes a first terminal in signal communication with the light sensor to receive one or both of the image signal and the pulse signal and a second terminal in signal communication with a voltage source. The image processing unit is in signal communication with the PDI circuit to receive one or both of the image signal and the pulse signal and to simultaneously perform imagery and pulse detection based on the image signal and the pulse signal, respectively.
