Video Health Monitoring in Hospitals

Video Health Monitoring in Hospitals discusses the emergence of camera-based, contactless physiological measurement as a groundbreaking solution in healthcare monitoring. The book highlights the technology's non-invasiveness, capacity for continuous and long-term monitoring, and its ability to capture not only vital signs but also contextual information and behaviors. A unique aspect of this book is its rich set of compelling healthcare applications that will attract broader audiences (including researchers, engineers, clinicians, and students) from multidisciplinary fields.
Finally, the book discusses the role of artificial intelligence in enhancing healthcare applications and aims to engage the healthcare industry in adopting this innovative approach to improve patient care and outcomes.

Dr. Wenjin Wang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at SUSTech, a PhD advisor, and the Principal Investigator (PI) of the Contactless Healthcare Lab. His research focuses on contactless health monitoring using camera sensors. Before joining SUSTech, he was an Assistant Professor at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and a Scientist at Philips Research Eindhoven. He earned his PhD from TU/e in 2017 and his MSc from the University of Amsterdam in 2013 (recipient of the Amsterdam Merit Scholarship, Top 5%). Upon returning to China, he was awarded the National Excellent Young Scholars (Overseas) in 2022.
Dr. Wang is recognized on the Stanford Top 2% Scientists List. In 2023, he was named one of the Top 20 Young Scientists in China by the Journal of Scientific Chinese. In 2024, he received the Young Scientist Innovation Prize from the Guangdong Provincial Government. He has authored 110 SCI journal articles and international conference papers (including IEEE-TBME/JBHI/IOTJ/TIM), accumulating over 4,100 Google Scholar citations. He has received the IEEE-EMBS Prize Paper Award, published 2 Elsevier books, and holds 20 granted US/EP/JP patents and 15 Chinese patents.
