ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING ULTRASONIC DEVICE AND PPG SIGNAL ACQUISITION METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18151882 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING ULTRASONIC DEVICE AND PPG SIGNAL ACQUISITION METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
An electronic device is described in this patent application. The device includes a photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor with a light source and a light sensor, an ultrasonic device, at least one processor connected to the PPG sensor and the ultrasonic device, and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions that allow the processor to acquire a PPG signal based on light detected by the light sensor and control the ultrasonic device based on an index value indicating the quality of the PPG signal.
- The device has a PPG sensor with a light source and a light sensor.
- It also includes an ultrasonic device.
- The device has at least one processor and a memory.
- The memory stores instructions for the processor to acquire a PPG signal and control the ultrasonic device based on the quality of the PPG signal.
Potential Applications
- Medical monitoring devices
- Fitness trackers
- Sleep monitoring devices
Problems Solved
- Improving the quality of PPG signals for accurate measurements
- Enhancing the functionality of electronic devices with PPG sensors
Benefits
- More accurate and reliable measurements
- Improved monitoring and tracking capabilities
- Enhanced user experience with electronic devices
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor comprising a light source and a light sensor, an ultrasonic device, at least one processor operatively connected to the PPG sensor and the ultrasonic device, and a memory operatively connected with the at least one processor. The memory may store one or more instructions which, when executed, cause the at least one processor to acquire a PPG signal based on light detected by the light sensor, and control the operation of the ultrasonic device on the basis of an index value indicating the quality of the PPG signal.
