  • Patent number: 10338662
    Abstract: A low power detection apparatus and a method for displaying information are provided. When a low power manager drives a proximity detection sensor to generate a proximity interrupt in a state within which the portable terminal is in an idle state, the low power manager drives a motion detection sensor and determines a motion of the portable terminal for a preset time. When there is no motion of the portable terminal for the preset time, the low power manager generates proximity data for displaying screen information and then transmits the generated proximity data to an application processor so as to display screen information which the user desires with low power.

  • Publication number: 20190125201
    Abstract: A method of measuring blood pressure is disclosed. The method includes receiving electrocardiogram information and blood flow rate information from a first sensor module, calculating a pulse transit time on the basis of the electrocardiogram information and the blood flow rate information, calculating a mean blood pressure value of a user on the basis of the pulse transit time, receiving a reference data from a second sensor module, and calculating a diastolic blood pressure value and a systolic blood pressure value of the user on the basis of the mean blood pressure value and the reference data. Because the present invention continuously measures blood pressure for 24 hours in a non-pressing manner, there is an effect in that abnormal signs of the blood pressure may be easily checked.
