1. A method of measuring the human heartbeat rate, comprising the steps of:
- a). using a high definition camera to continuously photograph the position of the face area of a human being, to obtain a series of video images;
b). parsing the video images into a series of image frames;
c). arranging the image frames in sequential order;
d). detecting the position of the region of the face in each image;
e). according to the change of the position of the face area in the image frames, the facial color fluctuation frequency of the human being, which corresponds to the heartbeat of the human being.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for measuring the human heartbeat rate, comprising the steps of: 1) obtaining a video of the measured subject; 2) parsing the video into a series of image frames; 3) arranging the multiple generated image frames in sequential order; 4) detecting the position of the region of the face in each image; 5) obtaining the facial fluctuation frequency of the measured object according to the change of the position of the face region in the image frame system.

8. A method of measuring the frequency of breathing in a human body, comprising the steps of:
-
a). using a high-definition camera to continuously photograph in the position of the face area of a human being, to obtain a series of video images; b). parsing the video images into a series of image frames; c). arranging the image frames in sequential order; d). detecting the area of the face in each image; e). according to the location of the face in each image, determine the location of the thoracic position and detect the chest region, below the upper edge of the face near the location of the chest; f). according to the change of the position of the thoracic region in the image frames, the respiratory rate of the human being is obtained, by the number of changes in the chest region per minute. - View Dependent Claims (9)
