Description

Accessories for detecting physiological characteristics with mobile devices

The present disclosure relates to accessories for performing physiological property detection with a mobile device, and more particularly to each of the adapters in the accessory.

In recent years, in-vitro diagnosis (IVD) devices have been widely used by patients with chronic diseases. In order to perform the test, the patient usually has to carry a single IVD device with him all day. Occasionally, patients forget to carry their own IVD devices and are unable to monitor their health in a timely manner.

For typical IVD testing, test strips including enzymes and reagents are used. When accepting the sample fluid, the characteristics of the test strip (such as electrical impedance or color) will vary according to the concentration of the target analyte (such as blood glucose or blood cholesterol) and will be displayed on the test strip, and then the test strip will be visually observed. The result is lower accuracy.

The accessory for detecting the characteristics of the test strip with the mobile device described in the present case uses the aforementioned test strip with the mobile device, and then uses the light source, camera and software of the mobile device to analyze the reaction result of the test strip on the test strip, which can be compared. Accurate analysis results.

In an example of the present disclosure, an accessory for performing physiological property detection in conjunction with a mobile device is provided. The accessory includes a mobile device adapter for the mobile device. The mobile device adapter can be coupled to a test strip adapter. The mobile device adapter includes a base and an upper cover. The base includes a bottom and a first side formed around the bottom. The upper cover is disposed to be coupled to the base, the upper cover includes a top portion, a second side surface, at least one set of combined structures, and at least one upper cover shading unit. The second side is formed around the top. The at least one set of combined structures is located on a first side of the top and is connectable to the test strip applicator. In addition, the at least one upper cover light shielding portion is located on the second side of the top.

In another example of the present disclosure, an accessory for a mobile device to detect characteristics of a test strip is provided. The accessory includes a test strip adapter that can be used with a mobile device adapter. The test strip adapter includes a test strip, a projection, and at least one set of combined structures. The test strip is disposed in the test strip applicator. The protrusion is formed on one side of the test strip applicator, and the protrusion forms an observation port. The at least one set of combined structures is disposed on a surface of the projection, the set of combined structures being coupled to the first set of combined structures of the mobile device adapter.
