Abstract
A system and a method for processing data obtained from an input signal including physiological information representative of at least one at least partially periodic vital signal. The physiological information is derivable from visible radiation reflected by an object. The system includes a detector for detecting at least one vital signature in the input signal and a converter for creating an output signal by modifying the input signal depending on the detected vital signature. The output signal includes an artificial signature at least partially replacing a respective vital signature of the at least one vital signature of the input signal. The system may further include a sensor for detecting visible electromagnetic radiation within at least one particular wavelength range.
