Abstract: A venous positioning projector includes an infrared light source module, a light splitting element, an infrared light image capture module, a processor, and a visible light projection module. The infrared light source module outputs a first infrared light to a target surface. The infrared light image capture module includes a filter and an infrared light image capture element. The light splitting element transmits a second infrared light reflected by the target surface to the filter. The infrared light image capture element receives the second infrared light passing through the filter. The processor generates venous image data according to the first infrared light and the second infrared light received by the infrared light image capture element. The visible light projection module generates a visible light based on the venous image data. The visible light is transmitted to the target surface through the light splitting element to generate a venous image.

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.

Abstract: A photoacoustic imaging apparatus for detecting a photoacoustic image of an object, a photoacoustic sensing structure, and a photoacoustic image capturing method are provided. The photoacoustic imaging apparatus includes an electromagnetic wave source for emitting an electromagnetic wave, a first electromagnetic wave transmissible substrate disposed on a transmission path of the electromagnetic wave, electromagnetic wave transmitting needles disposed on the first electromagnetic wave transmissible substrate, and an ultrasonic sensor disposed at one side of the object. The electromagnetic wave transmitting needles can be inserted into the object. The electromagnetic wave is transmitted to at least a part of the electromagnetic wave transmitting needles through the first electromagnetic wave transmissible substrate and to the inside of the object through at least the part of the electromagnetic wave transmitting needles.

Abstract: A photoacoustic imaging apparatus for detecting a photoacoustic image of a detected object is provided. The photoacoustic imaging apparatus includes a laser probe and a transparent ultrasonic sensor. The laser probe is configured to emit a laser beam. The transparent ultrasonic sensor is disposed over the laser probe. The laser beam emitted from the laser probe passes through the transparent ultrasonic sensor to be transmitted to the detected object.
