    Abstract: A pulse wave measuring device includes a processor and a memory. The processor obtains a visible light image, in a visible light wavelength range, of a user irradiated with visible light by a visible light source, obtains an infrared light image, in an infrared light wavelength range, of the user irradiated with infrared light by an infrared light source, extracts a visible light wave indicative of a user's pulse wave from the visible light image, extracts an infrared light wave indicative of a user's pulse wave from the infrared light image, computes a correlation value between the visible and infrared light waves, supplies a control signal for controlling the amount of infrared light emitted from the infrared light source to the infrared light source in accordance with the correlation value, calculates biological information by using at least one of the visible and infrared light waves, and outputs the biological information.

    Abstract: A muscle fatigue output device is provided with a myoelectric measurement unit that acquires myoelectricity of a user, and a main control unit that determines fatigue of a muscle of the user on the basis of the myoelectricity. The main control unit (a) uses the myoelectricity to acquire a value for a frequency characteristic of the myoelectricity, (b) uses the myoelectricity to acquire a value for an amplitude characteristic of the myoelectricity, (c) acquires a ratio between the value for the frequency characteristic and the value for the amplitude characteristic as an index for the fatigue of the muscle of the user, and (d) outputs information regarding the fatigue of the muscle of the user, on the basis of the index for the fatigue of the muscle of the user.

    Abstract: A pulse wave measuring apparatus includes a visible light receiver having a first surface and a pulse wave calculator. When a vehicle with the visible light receiver is viewed from a side, the first surface is in a first region between a first optical path of first reflection light and a second optical path of second reflection light, first light comes from an eye of a user on a seat of the vehicle, second light comes from a cheek of the user, an upper end of a rearview mirror of the vehicle reflects the first light to produce the first reflection light and reflects the second light to produce the second reflection light, and the pulse wave calculator calculates a pulse wave of the user on the basis of a waveform of visible light received by the visible light receiver via the first surface and outputs the calculated pulse wave.

    Abstract: Provided is a myoelectric potential measurement device that recognizes a user arm movement, including a bracelet having a plurality of electrodes, at least one memory, and a processor. The processor: uses the bracelet having the plurality of electrodes, which come into contact with the arm of the user, to measure a myoelectric potential at each of the plurality of electrodes; detects a measurement state when the each myoelectric potential is being measured; specifies at least one preferred electrode, which has a portion of the arm of the user positioned vertically thereunder, from among the plurality of electrodes in accordance with the measurement state, and weights the each myoelectric potential measured by the specified at least one preferred electrode, with respect to the each myoelectric potential measured by electrodes other than the preferred electrode from among the plurality of electrodes; and uses the weighted myoelectric potential to recognize the movement of the user, and outputs a recognition result.
