Current state-of-the-art remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) algorithms are capable of extracting a clean pulse signal in ambient light conditions using a regular color camera, even when subjects move significantly. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of rPPG in the (near)-infrared spectrum...
