Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for obtaining blood pressure measurements are presented. The blood pressure measurements may be obtained by determining a pulse-transit time (PTT) as a function of a photoplethysmography (PPG) measurement and electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement. A mobile device includes outer body sized to be portable for a user of the mobile device. The mobile device also includes a plurality of light emitting components distributed along at least one portion of the mobile device and a plurality of light collecting components configured to measure reflected light from the plurality of light emitting components reflected off of blood vessels within the user. The light emitting and light collecting components are distributed along the at least one portion of the mobile device. The mobile device may also include a light guide configured to direct light emitted by the at least one light emitting component toward blood vessels with the user.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus related to touch and gesture recognition with an electronic interactive display. The interactive display has a front surface that includes a viewing area, a planar light guide disposed proximate to and behind the front surface, a light source, and at least one photo sensing element coupled with the first planar light guide. The planar light guide is configured to receive scattered light, the received scattered light resulting from interaction between light emitted by the light source and an object in optical contact with the front surface. The photo sensing element is configured to detect at least some of the received scattered light and to output, to a processor, image data. The processor is configured to recognize, from the image data, one or both of a contact pressure and a rotational orientation of the object.

Abstract: This disclosure provides implementations of systems, devices, components, methods, and techniques for producing an optical sensing interface capable of detecting touches or gestures. In one aspect, an apparatus includes a light source, a photo-detector, and a substrate. The apparatus includes an emitting waveguide that extends at least partially over the substrate and that is configured to propagate light from the light source to one or more corresponding emitting portions. Each emitting portion is capable of emitting at least a portion of the light outwards from a plane defining the substrate. The apparatus further includes a sensing waveguide that extends at least partially over the substrate and that includes one or more sensing portions. Each sensing portion is arranged proximate an emitting portion and is capable of receiving light scattered by an object over the corresponding emitting portion. The sensing waveguide is configured to propagate the received light to the photo-detector.
