1. A system configured to detect an allergic reaction of a user, comprising:
- a frame configured to be worn on the user'"'"'s head;
a thermal camera, weighing less than 5 g, physically coupled to the frame, located less than 10 cm away from the user'"'"'s face, and configured to take thermal measurements of at least part of the user'"'"'s nose (THN); and
a circuit configured to determine an extent of the allergic reaction based on THN.

Abstract
Described herein are systems, methods, and computer programs for detecting an allergic reaction. In one embodiment, a system configured to detect an allergic reaction of a user, includes: a frame configured to be worn on the user'"'"'s head; a thermal camera, weighing less than 5 g, physically coupled to the frame, located less than 10 cm away from the user'"'"'s face, and configured to take thermal measurements of at least part of the user'"'"'s nose (THN); and a circuit configured to determine an extent of the allergic reaction based on THN.

12. A method for detecting an allergic reaction of a user, comprising:
-
receiving, by a system comprising a circuit, thermal measurements of at least part of the user'"'"'s nose (THN);
wherein the measurements are taken by a thermal camera weighing less than 5 g, which is physically coupled to the frame worn on the user'"'"'s head and is located less than 10 cm away from the user'"'"'s face;determining, based on THN, whether there is an increase in temperature in the nasal region of the user reaches a threshold; and responsive to a determination that the increase in temperature in the nasal region of the user reaches the threshold, generating an indication indicative of an onset of an allergic reaction of the user. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a system including a processor and memory, causes the system to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving, by a system comprising a circuit, thermal measurements of at least part of the user'"'"'s nose (THN);
wherein the measurements are taken by a thermal camera weighing less than 5 g, which is physically coupled to the frame worn on the user'"'"'s head and is located less than 10 cm away from the user'"'"'s face;determining, based on THN, whether there is an increase in temperature in the nasal region of the user reaches a threshold; and responsive to a determination that the increase in temperature in the nasal region of the user reaches the threshold, generating an indication indicative of an onset of an allergic reaction of the user. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
