Multi-wavelength imaging photoplethysmography for non-invasive and non-contact assessment of burn severity by You-rim Park, Joo Beom Eom

“…In this burn assessment system, four wavelengths (visible light wavelengths of 405 nm, 520 nm, 660 nm, and near-infrared wavelength of 940 nm) were used, and burn severity was identified based on the fact that each wavelength has different penetration depths. Each wavelength was set to irradiate with the same optical power (1 mW/cm²), and IPPG was acquired using images captured at 35 frames per second for wavelengths with different penetration depths. …”
