Extensible Augmented Reality Assisted Contact-Free Patient Surveillance in Emergency Context
Robert Roth, Thomas Pursche, Dena Farooghi, Reinhard Moller · 2020
We present a concept for a supplementary patient monitoring and emergency alerting system. It renders hot pluggability of sensors possible by taking a modular design as a basis. Specialized sensor modules detect the occurrence of particular emergencies such as excessive increasing or decreasing heart rate. The observers operating the system can receive and easily react to these emergencies using augmented reality headsets without having to interrupt their routine. Means to monitor multiple patients per sensor are discussed in this paper as well.
