Abstrakt: We developed a system to improve the quality of telemedicine, and the test results obtained have been presented in this paper, along with the technical details of the system. The spread of COVID-19 has accelerated the need for telemedicine to effectively prevent infections. However, in traditional Japanese medicine (Kampo), where color is essential, an accurate diagnosis cannot be made without color reproduction. Because commercial smartphones cannot reproduce colors with the level of fidelity required for medical treatments, we created a color chart that includes the human skin and tongue colors to help doctors identify their colors accurately during a telemedicine examination. Further, we developed a telemedicine system that allows for automatic color correction using a mobile device, with a color chart and non-contact heart rate measurements. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
