20120016245 | PLETHYSMOGRAM SENSOR - The plethysmogram sensor disclosed in this specification includes a light emitting portion whose output is variable, a light receiving portion to detect a light emitted from the light emitting portion and penetrates a living body of a measured person, and a processing unit to acquire information about the plethysmogram of the measured person based on a measured value provided from the light receiving portion. | 01-19-2012 |
20120150047 | PULSE WAVE SENSOR - Among the technical characteristics disclosed in this specification, the pulse wave sensor with one of the technical characteristic includes a construction to detect the pulse wave at a wrist (i.e., a construction to measure the pulse wave to be worn at the wrist). To be more concrete, the pulse wave sensor includes a measurement unit to measure the pulse wave, a power source unit to supply power to the measurement unit, a cable to connect between the measurement unit and the power source unit electrically, and a armlet type housing to contain the measurement unit, the power source unit, and the cable. | 06-14-2012 |
20140309537 | WIRELESS PLETHYSMOGRAM SENSOR UNIT, A PROCESSING UNIT FOR PLETHYSMOGRAM AND A PLETHYSMOGRAM SYSTEM - A wireless plethysmogram sensor unit is capable of obtaining a plethysmogram from a living tissue of a measuring object and of transmitting the plethysmogram to a processing unit outside the wireless plethysmogram sensor unit. The sensor unit includes a light source to emit measuring light into the living tissue and a light receiving element to receive light emerging from the tissue, which is accompanied by pulsation caused by absorption by arteries in the tissue. A memory stores a plethysmogram obtained in accordance with the light received by the light receiving element. A short range wireless communicator transmits the plethysmogram to the processing unit. A power source provides power to other elements in the sensor unit, and a controller controls the elements of the sensor unit. | 10-16-2014 |
