    摘要: An apparatus estimates vital signs of a person from video images with color channels representing a digitization of optical sensor signals. A first detector (203) detects a first image area being a skin area of the person and a second detector (205) detect a second image area corresponding to a different area of the person than the first image area. A determiner (207) determines color channel distributions for pixels of the first image area. A processor (209) provides a skin tone indication and a reference processor (211) provides a reference color channel distribution property for the skin tone. A gain processor (213) determines gains for the optical sensor signals in dependence on a luminance property of the second image area and on a comparison of the reference distribution property and a property of the color channel distributions. A gain controller (215) accordingly controls gain values applied to the optical sensor signals and a vital sign determiner (217) estimates a vital sign property for the person from the images.
