1. A device for obtaining vital sign information of a living being, comprising:
- a detector that receives light in at least one wavelength interval reflected from at least a region of interest of a living being and that generates an input signal from the received light,an illuminator that illuminates at least said region of interest with light, anda processor that processes the input signal and derives vital sign information of said living being from said input signal by use of remote photoplethysmography and that controls said illuminator based on said input signal and/or said derived vital sign information,wherein said control of said illuminator comprises one or more changes to one or more parameters of the illuminator, the one or more parameters of the illuminator comprising intensity, wavelength, direction, and/or illumination angle of the light emitted by said illuminator.

Abstract
A device for obtaining vital sign information of a living being comprises a detection unit that receives light in at least one wavelength interval reflected from at least a region of interest of a living being and that generates an input signal from the received light. A processing unit processes the input signal and derives vital sign information of the living being from the input signal by use of remote photoplethysmography. An illumination unit illuminates at least the region of interest with light, and a control unit controls the illumination unit based on the input signal and/or the derived vital sign information.
