  • a "pulse” can preferably be understood as describing the mechanical effects of the pressure and volume fluctuations caused by the systolic blood output from the heart on the immediate vicinity of the heart or their propagation to distant regions of the body through the vascular system, which may also be referred to as a pulse wave.
  • the pulse can denote both the frequency of the pressure surges that can be detected when counting the pulse, as well as their amplitude and course.
  • the pressure surges can, for example, be specified in number per minute and the course can also provide information about the pulse quality, such as a soft, weak or buzzing pulse.
  • the pulse develops as a wave with local time profiles of the pressure, the cross-sectional area and the volume flow or flow velocity.
  • the heart rate can be measured in different ways.
  • a practically very simple, inexpensive and precise method of measuring the instantaneous value is the use of a pulse oximeter, which is clipped onto a finger and measures and displays the oxygen saturation in the blood in addition to the current pulse.
  • Other methods are the use of special heart rate measuring devices, which, depending on the version, also allow the pulse rate to be recorded over a longer period of time with automatic data recording.
  • Another simple and common method is manual measurement using a watch, counting the number of heartbeats per unit of time. Conversely, the time required for a specific number of pulse beats can also be read off the watch.
  • Heart rate is usually given in beats per minute. Again The state of the art, but also the present invention shows that the heart rate can also be measured with means that most people usually carry with them anyway, such as a smartphone.
  • the pulse relates in particular to the pulse of an animal.
  • the sensor is preferably used to measure the heart rate of a warm-blooded animal.
  • the present invention relates to use in a mammal or in a human.
  • a human could benefit greatly from the sensor according to the invention or from the measurement and evaluation method because, on the one hand, the pulse is checked much more frequently and more commonly in humans than in other animals.
  • the technology of the present invention can be combined with smartphones that are only used by humans, so that the invention is particularly suitable for measuring the heart rate of humans. It goes without saying, however, that the basic functionality of heart rate measurement can also be transferred to corresponding equipment in such a way that, for example, the heart rate of animals can be measured.
  • optically measurable, dynamic variables can also be correspondingly measured if they are not a pulse.
  • the “optical sensor” can be any device that can measure a pulse optically and emit a preferably electrical or electronic signal that follows the dynamics of the pulse.
  • optical sensors which are used to measure the pulse are already known from the prior art.
  • the optical sensor is part of a known pulse sensor.
  • a pulse sensor known per se can be used in this way. What just a well-known and recognized methodology for heart rate measurement. Since the heart rate is to be measured using a mobile phone in particular, an electrical connection of the heart rate sensor to the mobile phone or to the computing unit would also be conceivable, which ultimately corresponds to the use of the known heart rate sensors.
  • the use of a known pulse sensor is made possible with simultaneous output of the signal measured by the pulse sensor via an optical interface, which includes the camera or a mobile phone or other computing unit, to the mobile phone or to the computing unit.
  • the optical sensor or the pulse sensor can have its own light source, which radiates a constant light into the body, for example. Fluctuations caused by the pulse can then be detected with a suitable light-sensitive energy converter, such as a photo cell, and forwarded to the output unit or to the control unit.
  • a suitable light-sensitive energy converter such as a photo cell
  • the light source of the output unit is controlled with the dynamics measured by the optical sensor or the pulse sensor, it can be suggested to the mobile phone or the computing unit and the associated camera that the pulse or the other optical measurable dynamic variable can be captured by the camera.
  • the “output unit” can be any unit that is able to output a measurement signal corresponding to the measurement of the pulse.
  • the output can be both in the form of a digital and in the form of an analog output or both in the form of a digital and in the form of an analog signal.
  • the output unit comprises a light source, which emits an optical signal and is to be controlled with the dynamics measured by the optical sensor.

  • the light source can be realized by any type of electric lamp which can be controlled with a sufficiently high frequency in order to follow the dynamics corresponding to the pulse and which can emit a light signal which can be recorded by a camera. So if the human pulse is to be measured, it is actually sufficient if the lamp can be controlled at a frequency of up to 300 flashes of light per minute, i.e. up to 50 Hz.
  • the light source of the output unit is an IR light source.
  • an IR light source can be understood to mean a light source that emits infrared radiation, where IR is the abbreviation for infrared.
  • infrared radiation is electromagnetic radiation in the spectral range between visible light and longer-wave Terraherz radiation. This usually means light with a wavelength between 780 nm and 1 mm. This corresponds to a frequency range from 300 GHZ to 400 THZ.
  • the advantage of using an IR light source as a light source is that the infrared radiation is invisible to humans, so little or no interference is to be expected and common cameras, especially those on mobile phones, can still record the light.
  • IR sensors could possibly also be installed directly in mobile phones, which is the case with certain mobile phones anyway.
  • the light frequency of the light source is preferably selected in such a way that as many common cameras as possible, in particular in common cell phones, can measure light signals emitted by the light source.
  • the light source of the output unit can also be an LED.
  • An LED can preferably be understood as a light-emitting diode, which is preferably a semiconductor component that emits light when electric current flows in the forward direction. In the opposite direction, the LED blocks.
  • the electrical properties of the LED thus correspond to those of a diode.
  • the wavelength of the emitted light depends on the semiconductor material and the doping of the diode. The light can be visible to the human eye or it can be in the range of infrared or ultraviolet radiation.
  • LED is used for the light source, such a structural design can be particularly simple and is also particularly energy-efficient. It goes without saying that theoretically any other illuminant can also be used instead of LEDs, such as incandescent bulbs, energy-saving lamps, fluorescent tubes or halogen lamps, since all of them are able to emit corresponding optical signals.
  • Any structural and/or information technology unit can be used as a "control unit" which is capable of controlling a light source, in particular one of the aforementioned ones or the light source arranged in the measuring sensor, with the dynamics measured by the optical sensor and with a brightness variability that is sufficient for the present purpose, ie in particular with a brightness variability that can be adequately captured by a camera.
  • the light source can emit visible light on the one hand.
  • the light source can also emit light with a wavelength that is invisible to humans.
  • the light is then modulated with the dynamics measured by the optical sensor, which is preferably done by modulating the brightness, since such modulation compensates for any brightness fluctuations that are caused by the optically measurable dynamic variable or by the pulse and are actually directly from the camera could be detected corresponds.
  • the optically measurable variable expresses its dynamics in another optically measurable property, such as a wavelength fluctuation
  • the light source can preferably be modulated in a corresponding property, ie also in its wavelength.
  • dynamics can preferably be understood to mean the temporal behavior of a system.
  • a measurement can then also be carried out using conventional measuring devices that are already available, such as cameras, which are connected or can be connected to computing units such as those found in mobile phones, tablets, laptops or desktops, be tried.
  • a suitable overall constellation as already explained above, an attempt can also be made to carry out the measurement entirely with equipment already available on the market, which, however, as also already explained above, is currently not proving to be practicable in every case.
  • the pulse or the pulse wave refers to such an optically measurable variable that is measured by the sensor, converted in a suitable manner and then used to output a measurement signal, which can then be processed with conventionally available and inexpensive computing units.
  • the dynamics with which the light source is controlled by the control unit does not have to correspond exactly to the dynamics of the dynamic variable.
  • the change in the gradient of the measurement signal corresponds to the change in the gradient of the dynamic variable or the measured dynamics, while the amplitude or even the absolute value of the gradient is suitably selected according to the reaction time and the sensitivities of the camera.
  • the amplitude or even the absolute value of the gradient is suitably selected according to the reaction time and the sensitivities of the camera.
  • frequency components of the dynamics of the optically measurable dynamic variable or the measurement output by the optical sensor when controlling the light source if these are then carried out for the type of measurement or evaluation that is carried out with the measurement signal should, does not seem important.
  • the feature that the light source is or can be controlled with the dynamics measured by the optical sensor is to be understood in the sense that the control of the light source and thus the measurement signal emitted by it are essential for the measurement to be carried out Frequency or in its essential frequencies for the measurement to be carried out should follow the dynamics of the measured dynamics.
  • control unit controls or can control the light source within a predetermined measuring accuracy for the output of an analog signal.
  • a digital evaluation and analysis in the evaluation unit is possible, but it is then preferably at least a quasi-analog measurement signal. Otherwise, the measurement signal can also be passed through in analog form, even if digital parameters, for example digital control of an input of an otherwise analog operational amplifier, act digitally on the signal or to output the measurement signal.
  • an "analog signal” can be understood as a form of a signal with a continuous and uninterrupted course. Therefore, an analog signal can be described as a smooth function and it can be used to describe, for example, the temporally continuous progression of a physical variable, which in the present context is, for example, the pulse signal or the pulse wave.
  • the range of values of an analog signal is referred to as the dynamic range, which in general technical, physical or mathematical contexts describes the quotient of the maximum and minimum of a physical variable or function. In this way, a dynamic of the pulse can also be measured with the measuring sensor explained here.
  • a “digital signal” in the present context preferably describes a signal that is represented by discrete values and describes a development over time.
  • the digital signal can be formed from an analog signal that describes the time-continuous progression of a physical quantity.
  • An analogue signal can be converted into a digital signal by quantization and sampling, which takes place at defined points in time. Digital values are usually encoded as binary numbers. Their quantization is thus specified in bits.
  • the analog signal output by the control unit can also be converted into a digital signal if this is more suitable for further processing than the analog signal.
  • the control unit controls or can control the light source to output a measurement signal that follows the measurement within the framework of a specified measurement accuracy, since both digital and analog control are possible in this way, which is then transmitted as an analog measurement signal from the camera or other optical receiver can be recorded.
  • the signal can be processed, for example, with the control unit including a filter for filtering out unwanted frequencies of the pulse or the optically measurable, dynamic variable. Unwanted frequencies that are to be filtered out can be, for example, regularly recurring, exceptionally high signal peaks, which very unlikely can come from the dynamic variable itself and, for example, any external interference signals that have nothing to do with the pulse or any other variable to be measured optically . Likewise, very high-frequency signals can be filtered out if corresponding frequencies are irrelevant for an evaluation of the measurement result to be carried out subsequently.
  • the filter can also filter out certain phases or amplitudes from the signal which the optical sensor provides to the control unit.
  • the optical sensor can already have a filtering effect to a certain extent, since—naturally—the optical sensor cannot pass on its own properties of the signal, which the optical sensor picks up, to the control unit.
  • the filter of the control unit is preferably an electrical, electronic or even signal-processing filter, with which the signal sent from the optical sensor to the control unit is acted upon in a targeted manner.
  • the control unit can preferably cumulatively or alternatively comprise an amplifier.
  • the signal can then be intensified via the light source so that a camera or other optical measuring device can capture it better. Since every person is individual, the measurement can also be carried out individually. For example, the pulse could be measured differently by the optical sensor from person to person because, for example, blood movements cannot be recorded so well.
  • This signal can be amplified so that the measured signal, which is as weak as possible, is then forwarded as error-free and precisely as possible so that it can be captured by the camera.
  • the amplification of a signal in general is well known in the prior art.
  • an “amplifier” can be understood in particular as an electronic assembly with at least one active component, which processes an incoming analog signal in such a way that the output variable is greater than the input variable.
  • the output usually has to be able to deliver more power than the input absorbs.
  • the additional power is preferably taken from the energy source, ie for example a battery or a power pack.
  • the essential characteristic is the linearity, whereby this, as already explained above, is not of essential importance in the present case, since the transmission of the dynamics is important.
  • the control unit advantageously includes signal processing in order to be able to already clean up artifacts or also typical errors in the optically measurable, dynamic variable, such as individual pulses that are skipped.
  • the signal processing can be used here as an additional means to improve the signal, so that overall the pulse can then be output as a measurement signal and measured by the camera or another optical receiver with much greater accuracy.
  • the term "signal processing" can be understood to summarize all processing steps that have the aim of extracting information from a received or measured signal or information for transmission from an information source, i.e. the optical sensor in this case an information consumer, in this case the camera or another optical receiver.
  • the signal processing preferably prepares the measured signal for measuring the pulse for the corresponding transmission.
  • the components required for signal processing can be arranged, for example, in a case of a mobile phone or in a housing of the measuring sensor.
  • the necessary components can also be represented in the control unit and/or in the output unit or by components in which the control unit or the output unit are represented.
  • signal processing can be used to clean up errors from both analog and digital signals.
  • digital signal processing is advantageous, since very deep interventions in the signal are already carried out here, which then no longer have to be carried out by the processing unit.
  • drastic interventions of this kind really make sense if the type of evaluation to be carried out at the end is known within certain limits.
  • Digital signal processing also usually means that, through sufficient post-processing, the digital signals can again be converted into an analogue or quasi-analogue, i.e. for the subsequent camera, optical recording and computing units, such as those in mobile phones, tablets, laptops or other can be found on computers that can be used directly by private individuals, detectable signal must or should be generated, as has already been explained above as being advantageous.
  • the filter, the amplifier or the signal processing, parts thereof and/or functions thereof can be implemented analogously or digitally or using information technology.
  • the latter two will usually require analogization or quasi-analogization when generating the measurement signal or when controlling the light source, unless the results obtained via digital or IT process steps are used to control analog electronic assemblies or analog electrical assemblies, such as analog variable filters or analog operational amplifiers.

  • the senor has an IR light source for interaction with the optical sensor.
  • An IR light source as a component of the sensor enables precise measurement under certain circumstances, since the influence of visible light is minimized and the penetration depth of longer wavelengths is greater, which is advantageous, for example, for x-raying body parts, such as is used for heart rate measurements, among other things.
  • the senor is designed as an ear clip or as a finger-rest sensor or includes such an arrangement, since in this case a device known per se is used to record the measurement, the one allows easy operation with very precise measurement.

If necessary, a corresponding coupling can take place here.
  • Existing charging stations can then also be used for the measurement sensor explained here.
  • the energy source may cumulatively or alternatively comprise a light charging device.

Abstract

En fournissant un signal de mesure qui correspond à une variable dynamique optiquement mesurable et qui peut ensuite être mis à la disposition d'une unité de calcul au moyen d'une caméra pour une mesure propre, il est possible de déterminer de meilleures valeurs par l'unité de calcul afin que la mesure et l'évaluation de la variable dynamique optiquement mesurable, plus particulièrement d'une impulsion, soient réalisées de la manière la plus fiable possible au moyen d'une unité de calcul comportant une caméra, telle qu'un téléphone cellulaire. En outre, il est possible d'optimiser un enregistreur de mesures correspondant pour la mesure respective afin d'effectuer des mesures optimales, contrairement à une caméra d'un téléphone cellulaire ou d'une autre unité de calcul dont l'utilisation est maximalement diversifiée. À cet égard, un capteur de pouls connu en soi ou un autre capteur optimisé pour la mesure en question peut être utilisé à des fins de mesure, par exemple. Les capteurs de pouls sont, par exemple, des capteurs de pouls connus tels que les pinces auriculaires correspondantes ou les lecteurs digitaux.
