Abstract
There is provided a system for measuring a physiological parameter of a person indicative of physiological pathology, comprising: a plurality of remote non-contact sensors, each of a different type of sensing modality, at least one hardware processor executing a code for: simultaneously receiving over a time interval, from each of the plurality of remote non-contact sensors monitoring a person, a respective dataset, extracting, from each respective dataset, a respective sub-physiological parameter of a plurality of sub-physiological parameters, analyzing a combination of the plurality of sub-physiological parameters, and computing a physiological parameter indicative of physiological pathology according to the analysis, wherein an accuracy of the physiological parameter computed from the combination is higher than an accuracy of the physiological parameter independently computed using any one of the plurality of sub-physiological parameters.
