TL;DR: The new trends on Laser Doppler Vibrometry (LDV) development are outlined with particular attention to the innovative solutions answering to the most recent technological requirements which are not met by the current systems as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: This comprehensive review paper charts advances in the development and applications of laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV) since those first pioneering experiments, and considers the challenges that continue to be posed by laser speckle.

TL;DR: A review of the most innovative laser Doppler vibrometry (LDVi) advances is presented with reference to recent publications, and different methodologies are categorized according to their relative fields of application as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: An optical measurement method for the simultaneous assessment of respiration and heart rates based on the measurement of the chest wall movements, associated with inspiratory/expiratory activities of the lungs and by the mechanical pumping action of the heart is presented.

TL;DR: An optical, non-contact measurement method for monitoring of the respiration rate in pre-term infants is reported, based on the assessment of abdominal wall movements detected by a laser Doppler vibrometer and can be operated at a distance from the patient and outside the incubator.
