1. An apparatus of variation amplification to communicate biological vital signs, the apparatus comprising:

  • a microprocessor that is programmed to execute;

    a cropper that is operable to receive at least two images and that is operable to crop each of the images to exclude a border area of the images, generating at least two cropped images;

    a skin-pixel-identifier that is operably coupled to the cropper and that identifies pixel values that are representative of skin in the at least two cropped images;

    a spatial bandpass filter that is operably coupled to the skin-pixel-identifier and that processes output of the skin-pixel-identifier;

    a regional facial clusterial module that is operably coupled to the spatial bandpass filter and that applies spatial clustering to the output of the spatial bandpass filter;

    a temporal bandpass filter that is operably coupled to the regional facial clusterial module and that is applied to output of the regional facial clusterial module;

    a temporal-variation identifier that is operably coupled to the temporal bandpass filter and that identifies a temporal variation of the output of the temporal bandpass filter;

    a vital-sign generator that is operably coupled to the temporal-variation identifier that generates at least one vital sign from the temporal variation; and

    a display device that is operably coupled to the vital-sign generator that is operable to display the at least one vital sign; and

    a wireless communication subsystem that is operably coupled to the microprocessor and that is operable to transmit a representation of the at least one vital sign,wherein the apparatus does not support specific discovery protocols or domain name service.
