Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for determining textual transcription from minute facial skin movements. In one implementation, a system may include at least one coherent light source, at least one sensor configured to receive light reflections from the at least one coherent light source; and a processor configured to control the at least one coherent light source to illuminate a region of a face of a user. The processor may receive from the at least one sensor, reflection signals indicative of coherent light reflected from the face in a time interval. The reflection signals may be analyzed to determine minute facial skin movements in the time interval. Then, based on the determined minute facial skin movements in the time interval, the processor may determine a sequence of words associated with the minute facial skin movements, and output a textual transcription corresponding with the determined sequence of words.
