Publication number: 20110141016Abstract: A mouse for measuring consistency of blood oxygen includes a mouse case, on which two transmitters, a transmitting circuit, a receiver, a receiving feedback circuit, a filtrate amplifying circuit, and a calculating unit are disposed. The transmitting circuit serves to control the transmitters to alternately radiate a red glow and an infrared light to the receiver. The receiving feedback circuit applies to convert them into an electrical signal, and the filtrate amplifying circuit obviates any promiscuous frequency existing in the electrical signal and amplifies the electrical signal. The calculating unit accordingly computes the signal to obtain the value of consistency of blood oxygen, which would thence be outputted from a communication interface for informing users about the consistency of blood oxygen, so as to prevent the discomfort suffered by the occurrence of oxygen deficiency in blood.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2009Publication date: June 16, 2011Inventors: Chun Hao LU, Cheng Chi Tai, Jiun Hung Lin
