DISPLAY DEVICE AND BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT METHOD USING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18159945 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT METHOD USING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device that includes a display panel, a pressure sensor, and a photo-sensor. The device is capable of calculating blood pressure information and generating biometric information.

  • The display panel consists of pixels that emit light.
  • The pressure sensor detects pressure.
  • The photo-sensor senses light.
  • The main processor receives signals from the pressure sensor and the photo-sensor.
  • The main processor calculates feature points corresponding to the lowest and highest points in each cycle of the pulse wave signal.
  • The main processor generates a peak detection signal based on the amplitude of the second feature point and the pressure signal in a first mode.
  • The main processor calculates blood pressure information based on the peak detection signal.
  • The main processor generates first biometric information by calculating the ratio between two sections in a second mode.
  • The main processor compares the first biometric information with stored second biometric information.

Potential Applications

  • Medical devices for monitoring blood pressure.
  • Wearable devices for tracking biometric information.
  • Health and fitness applications.

Problems Solved

  • Non-invasive measurement of blood pressure.
  • Convenient monitoring of biometric information.
  • Improved accuracy in calculating blood pressure.

Benefits

  • Eliminates the need for invasive blood pressure measurement methods.
  • Provides real-time monitoring of blood pressure.
  • Enables personalized health tracking and analysis.


Original Abstract Submitted

The display device includes: a display panel including pixels emitting light; a pressure sensor sensing a pressure; a photo-sensor sensing light; and a main processor receiving a pressure signal sensed by the pressure sensor and a first pulse wave signal sensed by the photo-sensor. The main processor calculates a first feature point corresponding to a first lowest point, a second feature point corresponding to a highest point, and a third feature point corresponding to a second lowest point in each of cycles of the first pulse wave signal, generates a peak detection signal based on an amplitude corresponding to the second feature point and the pressure signal in a first mode and calculates blood pressure information accordingly, and generates first biometric information by calculating a first ratio between a first section and a second section in a second mode and decides whether it coincides with second biometric information stored.
