  • Publication number: 20210386301
    Abstract: A blood flow measurement device easily measures the blood flow of a user, and includes a first body portion, a second body portion, and a hinge. The first body portion includes a first casing having a first bottom face, a light source that emits near-infrared radiation from the first bottom face to the outside of the first casing, and a first light reception unit that receives the near-infrared radiation from the first bottom face side on the outside of the first casing. The second body portion includes a second casing having a second bottom face, and a second light reception unit that receives the near-infrared radiation from the second bottom face side on the outside of the second casing. The hinge joins the first body portion to the second body portion so as to make an angle formed by the first bottom face and the second bottom face variable.
