Abstract
Touch-free vital sign monitoring is particularly useful for burn victims and critically ill patients, for whom conventional sensor attachment can cause pain, irritation, or infection. This paper presents a contactless system for real-time monitoring of respiration rate, heartbeat activity, and body temperature using non-invasive sensing techniques integrated with an embedded processing unit. The acquired signals are processed using signal conditioning and filtering techniques to reduce noise and improve measurement reliability. The proposed system is designed to be low-cost, portable, and suitable for real-time operation in burn care units, intensive care, emergency, and remote healthcare environments. By minimizing physical contact, the system provides a practical alternative to conventional monitoring methods while improving patient comfort and supporting timely medical attention.
Keywords— Touch-free vital sign monitoring, burn victims, contactless system, respiration rate, heartbeat activity, body temperature, non-invasive sensing, signal processing.
