Abstract: A gait posture meter that evaluates a gait posture of a measurement subject includes an accelerometer affixed to a centerline of the measurement subject's waist area and a computation unit. The computation unit calculates a Z feature amount and an X feature amount indicating a degree of a difference between up-down and front-rear axis direction accelerations of the waist area in a left leg reference period and up-down and front-rear axis direction accelerations of the waist area in a right leg reference period using a timewise change waveform in three axis accelerations outputted by the accelerometer, and calculates a Y feature amount indicating a degree of a difference between a displacement of a left-right axis direction trajectory of the waist area in the left leg reference period and a displacement of the left-right axis direction trajectory of the waist area in the right leg reference period by finding a second-level integration of the left-right axis acceleration outputted by the accelerometer.

Abstract: A pulse wave signal expressing a pulse is obtained by detecting a pulse of a measurement subject using a pulse wave sensor. The pulse wave signal is stored in a storage unit. A frequency spectrum of the pulse wave signal is found by converting the time-domain pulse wave signal stored in the storage unit into the frequency domain. It is determined whether or not the measurement subject is at rest by finding a frequency range, within a predetermined total frequency range the pulse rate of a person can take on, in which an intensity of a frequency component of the frequency spectrum exceeds a first threshold, and finding whether or not a ratio of the frequency range with respect to the total frequency range is less than a second threshold. A pulse rate from the point in time when the measurement subject has been determined to be at rest is found as the measurement subject's at-rest pulse rate.

Abstract: An antenna device for biological measurement according to the present invention includes a belt to be worn as surrounding a measurement target site of a living body. A transmission/reception antenna group is provided to the belt and includes a plurality of antenna elements. In a wearing state where the belt is worn as surrounding an outer surface of the measurement target site, a radio wave is emitted toward the measurement target site using any one of the antenna elements as a transmission antenna. A reflected radio wave is received using any one of the antenna elements as a reception antenna. A transmission/reception antenna pair formed of the transmission antenna and the reception antenna is selected by switching or weighted among the plurality of antenna elements based on a reception output.

Abstract: An ultrasonic vibrator driving apparatus applies a sine-waveform alternating voltage as a drive voltage via a conversion circuit to an ultrasonic vibrator that has a unique resonance frequency. A first current detector that detects a first current that flows from the drive voltage generator to the conversion circuit and a second current detector that detects a second current that flows from the conversion circuit to the ultrasonic vibrator are included. A frequency controller performs control on the drive voltage generator to change the frequency of a square-waveform alternating voltage so that the difference between the first current and the second current is reduced or approaches a minimum.

Abstract: An electric toothbrush includes a gyro sensor inside a main body. The gyro sensor detects an angular velocity of the main body and the main body includes a head portion, a neck portion, and a grip portion in a longitudinal axis direction. An angle formed by a longitudinal axis of the main body in a state that brush bristles of the head portion contact with a brushing site in a dentition with respect to the longitudinal axis of the main body in a state that the brush bristles of the head portion contact with a reference position in the dentition is obtained, based on an output from the gyro sensor. A corresponding point corresponding to the brushing site on an approximate curve that curves corresponding to the dentition is obtained based on the angle, and coordinates of the corresponding point are used as a translational position of the brushing site.

A scatter diagram representing data points decided by the Na/K ratio data and the blood pressure data associated with each other is produced on a plane formed by a first coordinate axis representing the Na/K ratio and a second coordinate axis representing the blood pressure, and sensitivity type of a subject is determined as one of predetermined four types existing actually according to a distribution of the data points in the scatter diagram. Information representing a determination result is output.
