BIOMETRIC INFORMATION DETECTION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18380061 titled 'BIOMETRIC INFORMATION DETECTION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING SAME

Simplified Explanation

An electronic device is described in this patent application. The device includes an output device, a biometric sensor with a light-emitting unit and a light-receiving unit, and a processor connected to both the output device and the biometric sensor. The processor can acquire a perfusion index based on a photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal obtained from the biometric sensor. If the perfusion index meets a first criterion, the processor can measure oxygen saturation using the PPG signal. If the perfusion index meets a second criterion, the processor can provide guide information through the output device to instruct an occlusion operation on a different portion of the subject.

  • The electronic device includes an output device, a biometric sensor, and a processor.
  • The biometric sensor has a light-emitting unit and a light-receiving unit.
  • The processor can acquire a perfusion index based on a PPG signal obtained from the biometric sensor.
  • If the perfusion index meets a first criterion, the processor can measure oxygen saturation using the PPG signal.
  • If the perfusion index meets a second criterion, the processor can provide guide information through the output device to instruct an occlusion operation on a different portion of the subject.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Medical devices: This technology can be used in medical devices for measuring oxygen saturation and guiding occlusion operations.
  • Fitness trackers: The biometric sensor can be used in fitness trackers to monitor the user's perfusion index and oxygen saturation levels.
  • Sleep monitoring devices: This technology can be applied in sleep monitoring devices to track the user's oxygen saturation during sleep.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Accurate oxygen saturation measurement: The device can measure oxygen saturation using the PPG signal, providing a non-invasive and convenient method for monitoring oxygen levels.
  • Guided occlusion operations: The device can provide guide information to assist in performing occlusion operations on specific body parts, improving accuracy and effectiveness.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Non-invasive measurement: The device can measure oxygen saturation without the need for invasive procedures, making it more comfortable for the user.
  • Real-time monitoring: The device can provide real-time feedback on oxygen saturation levels, allowing for prompt intervention if necessary.
  • Improved accuracy in occlusion operations: The guided occlusion operations provided by the device can enhance accuracy and reduce the risk of errors.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device includes an output device, a biometric sensor including a light-emitting unit for emitting light at a first portion of a subject, and a light-receiving unit for receiving light emitted by the light-emitting unit and a processor operatively connected to the output device and the biometric sensor, wherein the processor can be configured to acquire a perfusion index on the basis of a photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal acquired through the biometric sensor, measure oxygen saturation by using the PPG signal if the perfusion index corresponds to a first criterion, and output, through the output device, guide information instructing an occlusion operation for a second portion, differing from the first portion of the subject, if the perfusion index corresponds to a second criterion.
