Dr. Kevin Hung

As global populations age, healthcare systems face increasing pressures. Mobile health (m-health) solutions—through wearable sensors and communication technologies—offer potential for continuous, non-intrusive monitoring. In this talk, Dr. Kevin Hung will introduce the development of a smart eyewear m-health system, which uses pupillary dynamics, eye and head movements to assess cardiovascular and mental conditions. He will also discuss biosignal processing and feature extraction techniques powering such systems.
