The technical solution of the embodiments of the present application is applicable to any electro-mechanical device having a bio-signal measuring function operable by a human body, for example, a smart phone, a portable phone, a game machine, a television, a display unit, a steering wheel/joystick for vehicles (cars, subways, trains, ships, aircrafts, etc.), a notebook computer, a laptop computer, a tablet Personal Computer (PC), a Personal Media Player (PMP) machine, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a home health monitor, and the like. The electronic device may be implemented as a portable communication terminal having a wireless communication function. Further, the electromechanical device may be a flexible device or a flexible display device. And may be referred to as a terminal, a portable terminal, a mobile terminal, a communication terminal, a portable mobile terminal, a display device, or the like, on the condition that the electromechanical device has a communication function. The use posture also includes a posture when the user transports the electromechanical device with his body, such as walking with a mobile phone, walking with a notebook computer, etc. As long as the gesture is in normal contact with the electromechanical device, the use gesture referred to in this application is considered.
The terminal-type electromechanical device may communicate with an external electronic apparatus such as a server or the like, or perform an operation by interworking with the external electronic apparatus. The network may be, but is not limited to, a mobile or cellular communication network, a Local Area Network (LAN), a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), a Wide Area Network (WAN), the internet, a Small Area Network (SAN), and the like.
First, an electromechanical device to which the embodiment of the present application is applied will be described with reference to a cellular phone 100 shown in fig. 1A as an example. The middle and lower parts of the two side edges of the mobile phone are respectively provided with a signal acquisition part 110. The two sides are respectively a left side frame and a right side frame when the mobile phone is vertically arranged. When the user uses the mobile phone 100, the skin of the fingers or palms of the user usually contacts with at least one signal acquisition part 110 in the normal use posture, the detection signals sent by the at least two signal acquisition parts will pass through the skin of the user contacting with the at least two signal acquisition parts, the detection signals are absorbed and attenuated by human tissues and then reflected or projected outside the body, and part of the reflected or projected signals are received by the signal acquisition part 110 and converted into second signals which are easy to be transmitted and processed by electromechanical devices. The signal acquisition unit 110 is, for example, a PPG sensor. The electromechanical device 100 may also be implemented as other flat-panel electronic devices, such as a tablet computer. The handset 100 may include, for example, one or more of the following components: a processing component, a memory, a power component, a multimedia component, an audio component, an input/output (I/O) interface, a sensor component, and a communication component.
FIG. 1B illustrates an exemplary usage scenario of the handset 100 of FIG. 1A. The posture in which the user holds the cellular phone 100 with one hand is a normal use posture in which the cellular phone 100 is used, and is also a regular use posture. In this posture, the signal acquisition units 110 on both sides of the mobile phone 100 are in contact with the skin of the user. Therefore, the user can measure the biological signal without making a measurement gesture intentionally in the process of using the mobile phone 100 normally. The bio-signal can also be monitored for long periods of time without interrupting the normal use of the handset 100 by the user or engaging in other activities while holding the handset 100.
Wearable products on the current market have some physiology detection function such as heart rate detection, blood pressure detection, breathing and detect like intelligent wrist-watch, intelligent bracelet etc. these physiology detection functions have been familiar with and accepted by masses. However, the wearable product is limited to objective reasons such as small size, narrow screen, and continuous range, and generally the wearable product needs to be used with the smartphone, for example, to measure the real-time heart rate of the user in a specific scene (playing games, watching movies), currently, the heart rate of the user can only be detected by the wearable product, but cannot be directly detected by the smartphone, the smartphone can only detect the usage scene mode of the user, and it is significant to record the dynamic heart rate change in the scene; in addition, because the screen of the wearable product is very small, certain mobile healthy applications such as sharing at cardiac moments, great risk in real heart and control games can only give play to better experience by detecting the change of physiological indexes in real time through a mobile phone and presenting APP.
The mobile phone 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention can measure the bio-signal of the user during the normal use of the mobile phone, and can realize real-time measurement, long-time monitoring, large-screen display of physiological index changes, and the like without increasing the burden on the user.
Fig. 1C shows an exemplary usage scenario of the handset 100 of fig. a. The user often holds the cellular phone 100 with both hands while playing a game or watching a video program, for example, which is also a normal use posture of the cellular phone 100. In this posture, one of the signal acquisition sections 110 on both sides of the cellular phone 100 is in contact with the skin of the user, so that the biological signal of the user can be measured.
Fig. 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of an electromechanical device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The electromechanical device 100 includes signal acquisition sections 110 provided on both side edges. In the case where the user normally uses the electromechanical device, there is a local skin in contact with the signal acquisition section 110.
The light emitting portion 111 of the signal acquiring portion 110 includes, for example, a light emitting LED that emits light of a specific wavelength as a detection signal under the drive of the signal acquiring control portion 120 of the electromechanical device 100, the light is absorbed and attenuated by the user, and then reflected from the skin of the user, and a part of the reflected light is acquired as a first signal by the light receiving portion 112 of the signal acquiring portion 110.
The light receiving section 112 includes a photosensor, for example, a photodiode array, converts the reflected light into an electrical signal as a second signal, and outputs the second signal to the signal acquisition control section 120. The photodiode array is provided, for example, in the form of a photovoltaic film.
The signal acquisition control unit 120 includes, for example, an AFE (Active Front End). The second signal, i.e. the electrical signal in this embodiment, is typically weak, e.g. with a peak value of only about 0.6V, and contains noise due to ambient light interference, user movement, etc., and can therefore be subjected to signal processing including filtering and amplification to enhance the useful signal. In addition, in the case of a non-pulsating part of human tissue, i.e., a part where blood is pulsating, the absorption of light by bones, tissues, cells, etc. is almost unchanged without a large change in the measurement site, and arterial blood changes the absorption of light due to pulsation. The electrical signal can therefore be divided into an AC component representing arterial blood changes and a DC component representing other non-pulsatile tissue. The signal acquisition control unit 120 may filter out the DC component and only retain the AC component to more clearly represent the change in arterial blood. This technique is called photoplethysmography PPG. The AC component may also be analog-to-digital converted by the signal acquisition control 120 for subsequent transmission and analysis. In one embodiment, the signal acquisition control portion may further compare the third signal with a preset intensity threshold and truncate the third signal below the preset intensity threshold. The signal preprocessed by the signal acquisition control part 120 is transmitted to the signal analysis part 130 as a third signal.
For example, it is possible to provide one signal acquisition control section for each signal acquisition section, have one signal acquisition control section shared by all signal acquisition control sections, one signal acquisition control section shared by signal acquisition control sections arranged on the same side, one signal acquisition control section shared by signal acquisition control sections arranged on the upper half of the apparatus and one signal acquisition control section shared by signal acquisition control sections arranged on the lower half of the apparatus, and so on.
The signal analysis section 130 may perform time domain and/or frequency domain analysis on the third signal to derive a fourth signal. The fourth signal is, for example, heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, body water content, psychological stress, fatigue, respiratory training, and blood pressure of the subject, and may also be an indication of a measurement failure for a particular physiological parameter.
Taking blood oxygen detection as an example, which is a new field of mobile health, the blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) refers to the percentage of hemoglobin that carries oxygen, i.e. the ratio of the oxygen-carrying hemoglobin to all hemoglobin, multiplied by 100.
Blood oxygen detection is also of great significance clinically, and primary or secondary polycythemia, blood concentration and oxygen poisoning may exist when the blood oxygen saturation is increased, so that hyperbaric oxygen treatment is required. When the blood oxygen saturation is lowered, hypoxia-related hypoxia (such as emphysema, pulmonary congestion and the like), circulatory hypoxia, tissue hypoxia, anemic hypoxia (such as anemia, carboxyhemoglobinemia and the like), stasis hypoxia (such as cardiac insufficiency compensation phase), toxic hypoxia in tissues (such as alcoholism and cyanide poisoning) and the like may exist.
Fig. 3 shows a waveform diagram of light absorption by arterial blood in an artery provided by an embodiment of the present application. It can be seen that it represents the cardiac cycle. For example, when the light emitting unit 111 emits green light (wavelength range is 500nm to 560nm, for example, 525nm), the signal analyzing unit 130 can calculate the heart rate from the number of peaks in the pulsation cycle by the time domain analysis method. The signal analysis unit 130 may also use a frequency domain analysis method, for example, FFT conversion of the AC signal to obtain a frequency domain map, and further directly obtain the heart rate. The green light is suitable for measuring the heart rate under the condition that the tested object user moves. Heart rate can also be measured using infrared light.
The electromechanical device 100 may also perform a measurement of blood oxygen saturation based on, for example, the Lambert-Beer (Beer-Lambert) law and the difference in light absorption characteristics of reduced hemoglobin (Hb) and oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO2) in blood. Specifically, the light receiving portion 111 emits red light λ 1 (wavelength range 600-. The signal analyzer 130 calculates the blood oxygen saturation level of the measurement subject as follows:
Figure GWB0000003328010000141
wherein epsilon: absorption coefficient C: the content L: penetration depth Iin: input light Io: output light
I max λ1 =I in λ1 *exp(-ε s C s L s )
I min λ1 =I in λ1 *exp(-ε s C s L s -(ε Hb λ1 C Hb λ1HbO2 λ1 C HbO2 λ1 )L’)
I max λ2 =I in λ2 *exp(-ε s C s L s )
I min λ2 =I in λ2 *exp(-ε s C s L s -(ε Hb λ2 C Hb λ2HbO2 λ2 C HbO2 λ2 )L”)
Imax is the output intensity of the pulsatile arterial blood at its minimum, Imin is the maximum worth of output intensity of the pulsatile arterial blood, epscsls is the absorption of all static parts non-pulsatile parts of the blood, such as bones, tissues, cells, etc., (epshb λ 1CHb λ 1+ epsilono 2 λ 1CHbO2 λ 1) L 'is the absorption of the pulsatile arterial blood, L' and L "are the penetration depths of different wavelengths in the tissue. The difference value between Imax and Imin is an alternating current component signal obtained by testing, and Imax is a direct current component signal
An empirical formula of the blood oxygen saturation is obtained by combining equations of two wavelengths:
SpO2=C Hbo2 /(C Hbo2 +C Hb )=(ε Hb λ1Hb λ2 *R)/(ε Hb λ1HbO2 λ1 -(ε Hb λ2HbO2 λ2 )*R)
wherein R is log (1-I) ac λ1 /I dc λ1 )/log(1-I ac λ2 /I dc λ2 )≈I ac λ1 /I dc λ1 /I ac λ2 /I dc λ2
Since absorption in tissue is also affected by scattering, SO2 cannot be calculated directly from R by the formula, usually using empirical formulas. The empirical formula SpO2 (100-a R (a given by a big data fit) is typically used.
Heart rate measurements may be combined with blood oxygen content measurements to provide an effective indication/monitoring of the health condition of the user.
Taking the water content measurement as an example, the electromechanical device 100 can remind the user of drinking water reasonably and increasing the morbidity of cerebral thrombosis and coronary heart disease due to water shortage in the body through the body water content detection; urinary calculus and urinary tract infection are easy to form; the skin is easy to dry, wrinkles are increased, and aging of the human body is accelerated; can cause the toxin in the body to be discharged in time, and can cause the acidosis symptoms of abdominal distension, dizziness and the like. Therefore, scientific water supplement is needed in time, a small amount of water needs to be drunk for many times, and water needs to be drunk regularly, so that the user does not need to think about drinking water only when the user is thirsty.
Fig. 4 shows absorptance of water in human skin to light of different wavelengths according to an embodiment of the present application. Water molecules vibrate when they encounter a particular energy band. The hydroxide bonds in water molecules may stretch, contract, or otherwise change morphology. External energy is required to cause these vibrations. The degree of absorption of the oxyhydrogen bond is different for different bands. It can be seen that a distinct absorption peak is formed around 1450 nm. The electromechanical device 100 may emit infrared light (wavelength range 1400-1600nm, for example 1450nm) as a detection signal by the light emitting section 111. The wavelength of the infrared light is, for example, 1900 nm. The energy in the detection signal is absorbed by the hydrogen-oxygen bond of the moisture in the skin tissue of the tested object. Along with the change of the water content of the human body, the absorption rate of the water in the skin tissue to the detection signal changes. Thereby an indication of the moisture content of the subject's skin can be derived. The skin moisture content is then compared to, for example, a specific standard of total body moisture content, and an indication of the total body moisture content can be derived.
Fig. 5 shows a display interface for moisture content measurement provided by an embodiment of the present application. It shows the moisture content profile of the user on the time axis during the 24 hours of the day, marked as "your today moisture content trend". The lower part of the interface is a health prompt given according to the absolute value and the change condition of the water content, such as "comprehensively see you that the water is insufficient, and then please note".
The electromechanical device 100 may also be used for example for measuring psychological stress, fatigue and blood pressure of the user for respiratory training, but may of course also provide a failure indication as a fourth signal when the measurement of a particular physiological parameter fails.
In one embodiment, the signal analysis section 130 performs weight assignment and weight calculation on a third signal obtained based on the first signal obtained by the at least two signal acquisition sections 110 according to the signal strength. For example, the input with strong signal is used as main information, the input with weak signal is used as auxiliary information, and the main and auxiliary combination can provide more comprehensive and stable signals. For example, signals with strength below a threshold value can be discarded, so that interference and computational complexity are reduced, and the measurement speed is increased.
In one embodiment, the electromechanical device 100 may further include an alarm portion connected to the at least two signal acquisition portions, wherein the alarm portion issues an alarm on condition that a set number of the signal acquisition portions do not obtain the first signal for a set period of time. In some possible implementations, the alarm includes a location of the signal acquisition portion where the first signal is not obtained.
Fig. 6A and 6B are schematic structural diagrams illustrating an electromechanical device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The electromechanical device is implemented in this embodiment as a cell phone 600. The cellular phone 600 includes signal acquisition sections 610 disposed at lower portions on both sides of the edge thereof. Each signal acquisition unit 610 is divided into a light emitting unit 611 that emits a probe signal 640 and a light receiving unit 612 that receives a first signal 650 reflected after absorption and attenuation by the object to be measured. The light emitting portion 611 and the light receiving portion 612 are separated by, for example, an optical isolation portion to avoid mutual optical interference. The cellular phone 600 further includes a measured object detecting part 620 disposed at an upper portion of both side edges thereof for detecting a contact of a measured object thereto, for which the measured object detecting part 620 includes, for example, a touch sensor or a pressure sensor. And the object detecting part 620 has a light transmitting surface at a side facing the outside of the cellular phone. The handset 600 also includes two left and right signal transmission channels 630. The left signal transmission path 630 connects the signal acquisition part 610 disposed on the left edge of the cellular phone 600 and the object detection part 620. The right signal transmission path 630 connects the signal acquisition part 610 disposed on the right edge of the cellular phone 600 and the object detection part 620. In this embodiment, the signal transmission channel 630 is illustratively implemented as an optical fiber.
Those skilled in the art should select an appropriate manner to implement the signal transmission channel 630 according to the nature of the detection signal 640, the installation space, and other factors. For example, signal transmission channel 630 may be designed as a diffractive neural network that causes an optical signal to be transmitted through the network in a diffractive manner. Fig. 7 shows a part of the signal transmission path 630 in this embodiment. It comprises a plurality of 3D printed polymer layers. The surface of each polymer layer is structured to be uneven, including a certain number of pixels, for example, several tens of thousands, to diffract the signal to be transmitted, including the first signal 650 emitted from the object to be measured and the detection signal 640 emitted from the signal acquisition portion 610. The polymer layer may also be fabricated using other techniques such as photolithography.
Fig. 8 illustrates the operating principle of the electromechanical device shown in fig. 6A and 6B. For example, when the object detection unit 620 detects the approach of the user, it notifies the signal acquisition control unit 660 of the mobile phone 600 of the event, and the signal acquisition control unit 660 immediately drives the light emitting unit 611 of the signal acquisition unit 610 to emit the detection signal 640. The probe signal is transmitted to the object detection part 620 via the signal transmission channel 630, and is continuously transmitted to the user via the transparent surface of the object detection part 620. The detection signal 640 is emitted as reflected light in the form of first signal 650 after absorption attenuation by the body tissue of the user. The first signal 650 is transmitted to the light receiving portion 612 of the signal acquisition portion 610 via the signal transmission channel 630. The light receiving portion converts the first signal 650 into a second signal through photoelectric conversion. The second signal is passed to the signal acquisition control unit 660 for preprocessing, including, for example, smoothing filtering, analog-to-digital conversion, high-pass filtering, and amplification. The second signal is transferred, for example, through a flexible circuit board or a coaxial cable. The signal acquisition control unit 660 outputs the preprocessed signal as a third signal to the signal analysis unit 670. The signal analysis section 670 may perform a specific analysis, such as a heart rate analysis, a blood oxygen analysis, a water content analysis, etc., on the third signal according to the user's setting. The signal analysis unit 670 may select and perform a specific type of analysis according to a specific program built in the cellular phone 600. The signal analysis part 670 may also actively push an analysis result suitable for the body condition of the user, for example, remind the user to drink water when the body water content is lower than a threshold, and the reminding manner includes, for example, displaying a reminding picture on a screen, vibrating, and voice prompting, and pushing health knowledge about the body water content, a plan for reasonably supplementing water, a product capable of effectively supplementing water, and the like via the screen. The signal analysis section 670 may also provide a specific combination of analyses depending on the specific type of analysis selected by the user. For example, when the user selects moisture content analysis, the signal analysis section 130 may provide a combination of heart rate analysis and moisture content analysis, as heart rate is a valid reference value for both analyzing and interpreting moisture content. For example, when the user selects blood oxygen content analysis, the signal analysis section 670 may provide a combination of heart rate analysis and water content analysis. The post-analysis signal analysis section 670 outputs a fourth signal indicative of the physiological parameter, and the post-analysis signal analysis section 670 may also output a health report including the fourth signal.
In another embodiment not shown in the drawings, the handset 600 may also transmit the third signal to another device, such as a cloud server or another electromechanical device, via its communication interface, and the other device analyzes the third signal and then sends the fourth signal to the communication interface of the handset 600. Thus, the mobile phone 600 can also omit a biological signal analysis unit, provide low-cost and low-cost, and conveniently change, upgrade or expand the biological analysis function.
Fig. 9 shows a schematic structural diagram of an electromechanical device provided by an embodiment of the present application. The electromechanical device 900 is provided with signal acquisition units 910 at lower portions of both side edges. As can be seen in the partial enlarged view, the signal acquisition part 910 includes a light emitting part 911, which is implemented in this embodiment as an LED matrix that emits red, infrared, and green light. The signal acquisition section 910 further includes a light receiving section 912, which is implemented as a photosensor in this embodiment. Illustratively, the light receiving part may be provided in the form of a thin film, i.e., an electro-optical thin film, which facilitates the signal acquisition part 910 to form a compact structure and provides a good touch experience for a user. The signal acquisition unit 910 is covered with a lens 920. The lens 920 is disposed in the light-emitting optical path most downstream of the light-emitting portion 911 and in the light-receiving optical path most upstream of the light-receiving portion 912.
Fig. 10 shows a schematic structural diagram of a lens 920 provided in an embodiment of the present application. The upper sub-diagram of fig. 10 shows a cross-section of the lens 920. The body of lens 920 is optically transparent. At its inner portion, near the upper surface, a texture 9201 is formed in a manner of fitting the surface curvature of the lens for light collection and light transmission to improve optical efficiency, thereby enabling the electromechanical device 100 to obtain more accurate measurement accuracy. The texture 9201 is implemented in this embodiment as a fresnel texture formed by a plurality of concentric circles of varying sizes inscribed on the lens. The fresnel pattern appears as a series of saw-tooth like grooves when viewed in cross-section. The lower subfigure of fig. 10 shows a top view of lens 920 with texture 9201. A plurality of concentric circles constituting the fresnel pattern can be seen. The incident light or the emergent light is converged by the texture 9201 and then continuously transmitted. Meanwhile, the Fresnel patterns can also partially eliminate spherical aberration.
Returning to the enlarged partial view on the right side of fig. 9. One end of the flexible electrical connection 930 of the electromechanical device 900 is connected to each of the signal acquisition sections 910 and connects them to the board-to-board connector 940. The board-to-board connector connects the signal acquisition portion 910 to subsequent signal processing components, such as to a signal acquisition control portion and/or a signal analysis portion of the electromechanical device 900. The flexible electrical connection 930 is implemented in this embodiment as a flexible circuit board. The flexible electrical connection portion 930 can flexibly connect the signal acquisition portion 910, which is disposed at any position of the electromechanical device 100, to a subsequent signal processing portion. If the electromechanical device has a curved or irregularly shaped housing, the flexible electrical connection 930 can still conform to the shape of the housing, thereby connecting the signal acquisition portion 910 with the signal processing portion at low installation cost. The use of flexible electrical connections 930 makes the bio-signal measurement module flexible. For example, the types of the electromechanical devices are different, and the positions where the user frequently touches the electromechanical devices when in use are also different, the signal acquisition sections may be laid out on the electromechanical devices so that the user can always be measured in the usual posture change, and the flexible electrical connection sections 930 may be flexibly connected thereto regardless of where the signal acquisition sections are located. The flexible electrical connection 930 is made of a flexible material and can conduct electrical signals and can be implemented as a flexible cable, such as a coaxial cable, and any other suitable flexible electrical connection.
Fig. 11 shows a schematic structural diagram of an electromechanical device provided by an embodiment of the present application. The electromechanical device 1100 is implemented as a cellular phone, which includes four signal acquisition sections 1110 arranged at the upper and lower portions of both side edges. The two sides are a left side frame and a right side frame when the mobile phone is vertically placed. The flexible electrical connection portions 1120 of the electromechanical device 100 are connected with the respective signal obtaining portions 1110, and connect these signal obtaining portions 1110 to the board-to-board connector 1130, thereby connecting to, for example, a subsequent signal processing portion, such as a circuit board with a signal processing function, via the board-to-board connector 1130. In this embodiment, there will be more than two signal acquisitions 1110 covered by the user's skin, regardless of whether the user is holding the electromechanical device 1100 in a lateral or vertical grip. Therefore, at least two paths of first signals are collected, and weight distribution and weighted calculation can be carried out on the multiple paths of signals according to the strength and the weakness and the signal-to-noise ratio in subsequent signal processing, so that the detection precision is improved. For example, the input with strong signal is used as main information, the input with weak signal is used as auxiliary information, and the main and auxiliary combination can provide more comprehensive and stable signals. For example, signals with the strength below a threshold value can be cut off, so that the interference and the computational complexity are reduced, and the measurement speed is increased. The weight assignment and the weight calculation are performed, for example, by the bioanalytical unit on a plurality of third signals obtained based on the plurality of first signals. The electromechanical device 1100 may also be implemented as other tablet-shaped electronic devices, such as a tablet computer.
Fig. 12 shows a schematic structural diagram of an electromechanical device provided by an embodiment of the present application. The electromechanical device 1200 is implemented as a flexible screen mobile phone in this embodiment, the mobile phone body is provided in a reel shape, and the flexible screen 1220 can be wound around the mobile phone body and pulled out when the screen needs to be enlarged, so that the mobile phone can be manufactured in a smaller size, for example, the size of a pen. In this embodiment, the holding portions 1230 are respectively disposed on the left and right edges of the mobile phone reel when the mobile phone reel is placed horizontally, and the signal acquisition portions 1110 are respectively disposed on the upper and lower end surfaces of the holding portions 1230. The bottom drawing of FIG. 12 illustrates a common scenario in which a user is using the electromechanical device 1200, holding the left grip 1230 with the user's hand and pulling the flexible screen out of the scroll with the other hand, thereby enlarging the screen. The signal acquiring portion 1110 provided on the grip portion 1230 is covered with fingers thereof so that a biosignal can be acquired thereby.

Fig. 15A shows a schematic structural diagram of a biosignal measurement unit provided by an embodiment of the present application. The biological signal measuring unit 1500 includes two signal acquiring sections 1510, a flexible electrical connection section 1540, a signal acquisition control section 1520, and a signal analyzing section 1530. The signal acquisition unit 1510 is, for example, a PPG sensor. In the usage state of the bio-signal measurement unit 1500, two signal acquisition sections 1510 thereof are mounted on a first side and a second side of the carrier opposite to the first side. In normal use of the carrier by a user of the carrier, the user often touches both sides by holding the carrier. The signal acquiring unit 1510 includes a light emitting unit 1511 and a light receiving unit 1512, wherein the light emitting unit 1511 can emit a detection signal, the detection signal is absorbed and attenuated by the body tissue of the object to be measured, the object to be measured reflects a first signal, and the light receiving unit 1512 receives the first signal and performs photoelectric conversion on the first signal. The light receiving part outputs the converted signal as a second signal, and the flexible electrical connection part 1540 transmits the second signal to the signal acquisition control part 1520. Since the flexible electrical connection portion 1540 can be flexibly adapted to the shape of the carrier, it is made possible to easily arrange the signal acquisition portion 1510 on both sides of the carrier of an arbitrary shape. The signal acquisition control unit 1520 may drive the signal acquisition unit 1510, for example, to control on/off of the signal acquisition unit, and control the light emission timing, intensity, and the like of the light emission unit 1511. The signal acquisition control section 1520 may also perform preprocessing on the received second signal, such as smoothing, amplification, analog-to-digital conversion, and removal of a direct current component. The signal acquisition control unit 1520 outputs the preprocessed signal as a third signal to the signal analysis unit 1530. The signal analysis unit 1530 analyzes the third signal and outputs a physiological parameter such as a heart rate, a blood oxygen content, and/or a body water content as a fourth signal. For example, if the carrier is a mobile phone, the fourth signal may be transmitted to the mobile phone CPU for being pushed to the user of the mobile phone, i.e. the object to be tested, via the screen display.
Fig. 15B shows a schematic structural diagram of a biosignal measurement unit provided by an embodiment of the present application. Compared to the exemplary biosignal measurement unit in fig. 15A, the biosignal measurement unit 1500 illustrated in fig. 15B further includes a measured object detecting portion 1550 and a signal transmitting channel 1560. In a use state of the biological signal measuring unit 1500, the object detecting part 1550 is arranged on a position different from the signal acquiring part 1510 on the carrier. The object detection unit 1550 and the signal acquisition unit 1510 are connected via a signal transmission path 1560, and the signal transmission path 1560 can transmit the probe signal from the light emitting unit 1511 to the object detection unit 1550 and transmit the probe signal to the object via a light-transmitting portion of the object detection unit 1550, which is directed toward the object. Alternatively, the first signal reflected by the object to be measured enters the object to be measured detection portion 1550 through the light-transmitting portion of the object to be measured detection portion 1550, and is then transmitted to the light receiving portion 1512 through the signal transmission path 1560. The light-transmitting portion may be formed of a void or a transparent plastic.
The bio-signal measurement unit 1500 in fig. 15A or 15B may further include a communication part that transmits the third signal preprocessed by the signal acquisition control part 1520 to another device for analysis via the communication part, and receives a physiological parameter or a health report resulting from the analysis via the communication part. So that the bio-signal measurement unit 1500 can omit the signal analysis part 1530. In another embodiment, the bio-signal measurement unit 1500 may also transmit the third signal to the controller of the carrier, which sends the third signal to another device for analysis through the communication part of the carrier, and receives the returned physiological parameter or health report via the communication part. Thus, the biological signal measuring unit 1500 can omit both the signal analyzing section 1530 and the communication section.

The signal analysis section may analyze a specific physiological parameter, such as blood oxygen, heart rate, body water content, etc., from the third signal according to the setting of the electromechanical device, and output the specific physiological parameter as a fourth signal. The fourth signal can be sent to the tested object by the electromechanical device through screen display, sound playing, vibration and the like.
