Vital Signs Monitoring using Depth Cameras
Cardiovascular disease is responsible for an estimated 17.9 million deaths each year, making it the leading cause of death worldwide. Continuous heart health monitoring way is the best preventative for heart failure. However, standard monitoring devices, including ECG and PPG, require direct physical contact, which can be difficult for certain patient...

Terahertz Wave Plethysmography
Heart rate and other cardiac function monitoring is conventionally performed in a healthcare setting utilizing devices such as EKGs and finger pulse oximeters. While effective, this requires physical contact with the patient and a doctor visit, making continuous or long-term monitoring difficult. Microwave radars have been used extensively for...

A Rapid On-Site Detection Method for Gamma-Hydroxybutyric Acid (GHB), a Popular Psychoactive Drug.
INV-20053 Background Gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) is used for recreational purposes as a club drug and often leads to drug-facilitated sexual assault. GHB can cause severe cognitive dysfunction and even death when overdosed. The risks associated with a lack of quick on-site diagnostic solutions as intoxicated individuals are often left unaided...

A probiotic product for detoxification of the recreational drug gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB)
INV-20018 Background GHB is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter and a psychoactive drug. It is a precursor to γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate in certain brain areas. GHB has been used for recreational purposes as a club drug and, in some instances, leads to drug-facilitated sexual assault. When over-dosed, GHB can cause severe...
