Stereoscopic facial imaging for pain assessment using rotational offset microlens arrays based structured illumination

Abstract Conventional pain assessment methods such as patients’ self-reporting restrict the possibility of easy pain monitoring while pain serves as an important role in clinical practice. Here we report a pain assessment method via 3D face reading camera assisted by dot pattern illumination. The fa...
