Contactless Health Monitoring
Contactless sensing projects for stress, behavior, and physiological monitoring in real-world settings.
This project line focuses on the contactless measurement of stress, its determinants, and its consequences. The core idea is to capture stress-related behavior and physiology with unobtrusive sensing technologies such as radar, video-based motion analysis, and related digital biomarkers, enabling assessment outside tightly controlled laboratory settings.
The broader aim is to understand how stress responses unfold in naturalistic environments and to develop methods that remain robust, interpretable, and practically usable in translational and clinical contexts. This work also connects closely to large-scale multimodal sensing and machine-learning-based analysis of behavior and physiology.
