    Abstract: A device for monitoring heart rate or blood oxygen level during exercise is disclosed having sensors and emitters, wherein the sensors are used to monitor transmission from each of the emitters in turn. This provides a possibility that a smaller device can be provided since less sensors and emitters can be used while obtaining more number of observations. In some embodiments, the repeated use of sensors with different emitters introduces redundancy into the device so that the device is more robust and may function even in the event that one or two of the emitters and sensors have broken down.

    Abstract: A method, and a related device, for obtaining the blood pressure of a person. The method comprising steps of providing a light source (101), and an optical sensor (103) configured to detect light from the light source which has propagated through the wrist of a wearer of the device. The amount of light propagating through the wrist depends on the amount of blood in the wrist. Blood pressure is then observed by monitoring the difference in the amplitude of blood pulsation within the wrist when the wrist is lifted above heart level, and when the wrist is lowered below heart level.

    Abstract: A device for monitoring heart rate or blood oxygen level during exercise is disclosed having sensors (106) and emitters (104), wherein the sensors (106) are used to monitor transmission from each of the emitters (104) in turn. This provides a possibility that a smaller device can be provided since less sensors and emitters can be used while obtaining more number of observations. In some embodiments the repeated use of sensors with different emitters introduces redundancy into the device so that the device is more robust and may function even in the event that one or two of the emitters and sensors have broken down.
