Abstract: Disclosed are an image correction method and apparatus for a visually impaired person, which are capable of dividing, enlarging, and photographing a subject to be photographed, correcting images photographed in a divided state, and providing one image. The image correction method includes: a dividing process of dividing a subject to be photographed into at least two zones; an individual photographing process of, by an image photographing unit, photographing each of the divided zones along an arbitrarily set course; an image correcting process of correcting skewness of an image of each of the photographed zones; and an image synthesizing process of synthesizing the corrected images into one image. Thus, the image is divided, enlarged, and photographed, and the photographed images are generated into one image. Thereby, a high-resolution image is provided along with a high character recognition rate and a still image is provided with a high resolution.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method of measuring a blood pressure of an examinee while detecting the body activity of the examinee uses a pressurizing unit of a blood pressure gauge having first and second driving modes for pressurizing a cuff. A central processing unit classifies signals, which represent the movement, the position, or the direction of the blood pressure gauge detected by a sensor installed in a body of the blood pressure gauge, into a plurality of groups, and selectively performs the first driving mode or the second driving mode according to signal bands classified into the groups. The central processing unit is configured to generate blood pressure data so that the variation in the blood pressure of the examine is exactly determined according to the activity degree and the posture of the examinee.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for measuring blood pressures of both arms, in which an examine simultaneously measures the blood pressures of both arms without getting the arms out of cuffs in the stable and safely posture. The apparatus includes a body (100) mounted on a mounting table such as a desk, a left cuff unit (110) placed at a left upper portion of the body (100), and a right cuff unit (210) placed at a right upper portion of the body (100). The left and right cuff units have the symmetric structure so that the blood pressure is measured at identical blood pressure measurement portions of the left and right arms of the examinee which are placed at internal space parts of the left and right cuff units.

Abstract: Disclosed is a laser device. The laser device includes a pulse generator which irradiates a laser beam between a high reflector mirror and an output coupler mirror to amplify and resonate the laser beam, a pulse output section which receives a laser beam pulse amplified and resonated through the output coupler mirror to output the laser beam pulse, and a Q switch which moves backward or forward in a direction perpendicular to a path of the laser beam formed between the pulse generator and the high reflector mirror. The output coupler mirror includes first and second mirrors provided on a base plate. Positions of the first and second mirrors are selectively changed as the Q switch moves backward or forward.

Abstract: Disclosed is a weight scale having a function of a pulse rate meter or a heartbeat rate meter in which a weight, a pulse, and a heartbeat can be measured using a plus and minus electrode provided at a main part of the weight scale to catch athletic effects according to variation of the weight, the pulse, and the heartbeat measured before and after exercise of a subject, a function that brings the most appropriate exercise intensity can be provided to the subject using exercise intensity according to pulse and heartbeat, and stress of the subject is measured using heartbeat rate variability (HRV) representing regularity of pulse or heartbeat.
