Abstract

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), 235 million people suffer from respiratory illnesses which causes four million deaths annually. Regular lung health monitoring can lead to prognoses about deteriorating lung health conditions. This article presents our system SpiroMask that retrofits a microphone in consumer-grade masks (N95 and cloth masks) for continuous lung health monitoring. We evaluate our approach on 48 participants (including 14 with lung health issues) and find that we can estimate parameters such as lung volume and respiration rate within the approved error range by the American Thoracic Society (ATS). Further, we show that our approach is robust to sensor placement inside the mask.
