FaceBit

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically increased the use of face masks across the world. Aside from physical distancing, they are among the most effective protection for healthcare workers and the general population. Face masks are passive devices, however, and cannot alert the user in case of improper fit or mask degradation. Additionally, face masks are optimally positioned to give unique insight into some personal health metrics. Recognizing this limitation and opportunity, we present FaceBit: an open-sourc… Show more

“…A wide variety of sensing technologies and strategies [4,10,[26][27][28][29]49] have been investigated to achieve detection of human activity and measuring a physical environment. More relevant to our work are sensing approaches that utilize camera-based [1,21] and audio-based [25,44] systems.…”

“…Imagine, for example, coordinating behavioral health care with a patient's physician and being able to assist in monitoring diabetes-related variables such as blood sugar. Devices may well be mass produced at low cost in the future, such as "paper-pencil on-skin electronics" that are now in development (Xu et al, 2020) or sensors for mask applications that could readily be adapted to other biometrics (Curtiss et al, 2022). Some advances need not be physical devices.…”

“…Not specific to COVID-19 but to cope with general respiratory disease, Lazaro et al [26], Escobedo et al [27], Zhong et al [28], Yang et al [29], Kim et al [30], and Pan et al [31] monitored breathing patterns. From a general health monitoring perspective, Gravina et al [32], Curtiss et al [33], and Fischer et al [34] monitored biosignals such as heart rate, respiration rate, and body temperature. Acquired sensor readings were then analyzed through smartphone apps for display.…”
