    摘要: The present invention discloses a system and method to measure the pulse pressure signals, which inflates and deflates at least one air bag to detect pulse pressure signals of a human limb. The system comprises a detection device and a host device. The detection device is place on an artery of a human limb and includes one or more air bags. The host device controls inflation and deflation of the air bags, measures pressure variation of the air bags, and records and analyzes pulse pressure signals. The system and method of the present invention can simulate the three-finger technique of pulse diagnostics of the traditional Chinese medicine and provide physicians with more reliable pulse-diagnostics information.

    摘要: The invention is related to a noninvasive pulse measurement system with constant pressure for extremities of a human, and the constant pressure is modulated among 30 to 120 mmHg. There are an auto-mode and a manual mode for measurement algorithm. The auto-mode completes measurement and recording processes automatically during 2 minutes and pressurizes the system from low pressure (30 mmHg) to high pressure (120 mmHg) with 10 mmHg gradient every 5 seconds while the manual mode completes measurement and recording processes during a long time under a user's setting. Moreover, by a post-treatment of the system, the system is able to obtain continuous pulse signals, continuous pulse differential signals, and continuous pulse integral signals that are useful for Chinese medicine to evaluate and monitor the user's cardio-physiology and circulatory system.

    摘要: The present invention discloses a PPG imaging device and a PPG measuring method. The PPG imaging device comprises a light emitting unit, a collimator unit, a beam splitter unit, an image sensing unit, and an image analysis unit. The light emitting unit provides an incident light signal. The collimator unit receives the incident light signal and transforms the incident light signal into a parallel light signal. The beam splitter unit receives the parallel light signal and reflects it to a tested region. The image sensing unit receives a reflected light signal reflected from the tested region and converts it into image signals. The image analysis unit connects with the image sensing unit and analyzes the image signals to obtain PPG signals of the tested region. The PPG imaging device may be arranged in an anti-light pollution unit, whereby to prevent from optical interference and obtain higher measurement precision.
