  • Publication number: 20230051939
    Abstract: A physiological monitoring device is provided and includes a physiological sensing device, a first PPG sensor, a vital signs detector, and a PPG controller. The physiological sensing device senses at least one physiological feature of a subject to generate at least one sensing signal. The first PPG sensor senses pulses of a blood vessel of the subject to generate a first PPG signal when the first PPG sensor is activated. The vital signs detector obtains vital signs data according to the at least one sensing signal. The PPG controller detects whether a specific event is happening to the subject according to the vital signs data. In response to detecting that the specific event is happening to the subject, the PPG controller activates the first PPG sensor. The physiological monitoring apparatus obtains a blood oxygen level of the subject according to the first PPG signal.

  • Patent number: 8855319
    Abstract: An audio signal processing apparatus and an audio signal processing method are provide. The audio signal processing apparatus comprises: a plurality of individual audio interfaces, an audio signal processing unit, and an audio channel splitting unit. The audio signal processing unit is utilized for determining a total number of audio channels corresponding to the individual audio interfaces and generating a first output audio signal with a first number of audio channels according to an input audio signal and the total number of audio channels when the audio signal processing apparatus is operated under a first operational mode. The audio channel splitting unit is coupled to the audio signal processing unit and the audio interfaces. When the audio signal processing apparatus is operated under the first operational mode, the audio channel splitting unit splits the first output audio signal with the first number of audio channels to the audio interfaces, respectively.
