  • Patent number: 10265485
    Abstract: A medication concentration detecting device includes a medicine container, a three-way pipe, a light emitting member, a first light receiver and a processor. The medicine container has a chamber configured for accommodating nebulized medicine. The three-way pipe has a passageway connected to the chamber for the nebulized medicine to flow along the passageway. The light emitting member is disposed on the three-way pipe and configured for emitting a light beam toward the passageway. The first light receiver is disposed on the three-way pipe and configured for receiving the light beam and outputting a luminous flux signal. The processor is connected to the first light receiver and configured for calculating a luminous flux reference value according to the luminous flux signal. The luminous flux reference value is used for determining whether outputs a low nebulized medicine concentration warning.

  • Patent number: 10123701
    Abstract: An intraocular pressure detecting device includes a pressure generation unit, a light source, an image sensing unit and a processing unit. The pressure generation unit applies pressure to a target surface of an eyeball along a first operation axis direction, such that a deformation is generated on the target surface. The light source emits light that irradiates the target surface along a second operation axis direction, so as to generate a speckle pattern on the target surface. The image sensing unit observes and records an image variation of the speckle pattern along a third operation axis direction. The processing unit is signally connected with the image sensing unit to receive an image of the speckle pattern. The processing unit identifies and analyzes a feature size of the image of the speckle pattern for obtaining an intraocular pressure value of the eyeball. An intraocular pressure detecting method is also described.
