The non-contact monitoring system and the application of smart mobile phone medical care play a vital role in the battle against the epidemic. Frost & Sullivan analysis shows that non-contact patient monitoring technology is gradually developing to use mobile platform, combined with artificial intelligence (AI) and audio-visual analysis technology. Wearable smart medical technology will be transformed into non-contact, replacing the former's disadvantages such as high cost, discomfort and limited use

Business opportunities of contactless technology market

Frost & Sullivan report suggests that some remote monitoring related technologies can help businesses expand profit opportunities, such as voice analysis technology, which can provide remote monitoring for patients with influenza like illness (ILI) according to cough

Video based non-contact monitoring technology can detect physiological and emotional states such as depression, anger and anxiety, and then diagnose mental stress. Novel coronavirus pneumonia can be detected by radar sensor technology through tracking respiration and heart rate, such as asthma, COPD and COVID-19. < RD p>

As for sensor mediated non-contact technology, it helps people interested in health care and fitness to track heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure. In addition, due to the promotion of mobile platform technology, telemedicine market will grow significantly, which is also the business opportunity of the industry

Non contact telemedicine in full bloom

The pandemic has forced medical staff to avoid contact with patients as much as possible, thus providing opportunities for non-contact monitoring technology. Frost & Even pharmaceutical companies can use these technologies to monitor the effectiveness of drug development, sullivanl said

Aline noizet, founder of digital health connector, said that during the epidemic period, the popularization of remote care accelerated. For example, binah.ai uses AI and signal processing to measure the physiological phenomena of patients through the camera lens of mobile phone; Tytocare is developing devices to measure vital signs for patients to use at home during remote consultation

At the same time, the remote platform of physical and mental therapy has also increased greatly. For example, flow, a new entrepreneur of physical and mental health in Sweden, has launched an app for depression, which has been included in the Orcha library and is allowed to be recommended by NHS to patients
