A sensing system for non-contact determination of a presence or absence of a condition of a subject comprising: a housing which houses a vibroacoustic sensor module for sensing vibroacoustic signals and comprising a voice coil component, a magnet component, a connector and a diaphragm; and an Echo Doppler sensor module including at least one emitter component and at least one receiver component; the vibroacoustic sensor module and Echo Doppler sensor module being communicatively connected to a processor of a computing device having a memory storing executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive vibroacoustic signal data corresponding to the subject; receive ultrasound signal data corresponding to the subject; and output, based on the received vibroacoustic signal data and the ultrasound signal data and using a trained machine learning model, an indication of the presence or absence of the condition in the subject.
