  • Publication number: 20060100533
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for measuring bio signals are provided. The apparatus includes a body, a plurality of electrodes, and a controller. The body is filled with predetermined packing material. The electrodes are positioned at an outermost portion of the body and touch the skin of a subject to measure bio signals from the subject. The controller is positioned inside of the body and connected with the electrodes to analyze the bio signals measured from the electrodes and output bio information of the subject.

  • Publication number: 20050117151
    Abstract: An analyzing method and system includes projecting light onto a specimen, detecting an optical spectrum from the specimen, dividing the detected optical spectrum by a predetermined time interval, applying a weighting vector and a gain and offset vector to the divided spectra to generate a resolution vector, quantizing an analog signal of the resolution vector to a digital signal, and applying a synthesis vector to the quantized spectra to restore the quantized spectra to a size of the optical spectrum. A spectrum having a large amplitude difference is temporally divided and is analyzed by applying different resolutions to individual time intervals. Spectral portions of the spectrum having relatively small peak amplitudes are selected as a region of interest (ROI) to be modified.

  • Patent number: 6735469
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for obtaining data for diagnosing the condition of a living body without harming living tissue using an ultrahigh frequency (UHF) signal includes a signal transmitter, a signal receiver, and a signal processor. Signal transmitter generates a UHF signal and radiates the UHF signal at a first of two acupuncture points of a living body. The signal receiver receives a UHF signal emitted from a second acupuncture point, detects and outputs the magnitude of the received UHF signal.
