Smart Kiosk for Screening Main Symptoms of COVID-19
We aim to develop an efficient app and algorithm to run in real-time on a kiosk prototype, collect vital signs and provide a COVID score accordingly.
Keywords: interdisciplinary approach, time series analysis, biosignal analysis, data science, medical technologies, and digital health.
The purpose of this study is to develop a prototype for an intelligent kiosk accompanied by an Infrared (IR) thermographic camera to detect contactless vital signs such as temperature measurements and provide a risk score for COVID-19.
The purpose of this study is to develop a prototype for an intelligent kiosk accompanied by an Infrared (IR) thermographic camera to detect contactless vital signs such as temperature measurements and provide a risk score for COVID-19.
- Build a prototype of a kiosk with either smartphone or a tablet
- Collect vital signs using an IR camera
- Develop a user interface
- Associate vital signs measurement with COVID-19
- Create a COVID-19 risk score (0-1, where 0 is diagnosed as a healthy subject while 1 is a subject diagnosed with COVID-19)
**Tasks**
- Literature review (10%)
- Develop a conceptual prototype for effective vital signs measurement (40%)
- Develop an app or an algorithm to differentiate between subjects with and without COVID-19 (40%)
- Report and present results (10%)
**Profile**
- Background in Medicine, Engineering, Computer Science, Biostatistics, or related fields
- Prior experience with programming (Matlab or Python)
- Able to work independently, pay attention to detail, and deliver results remotely
- Can visualize data effectively using different charts such as boxplots and scatter plots
- Background in statistics, time series analysis, and machine learning is needed.
