Patent number: 7212659Abstract: An apparatus for measuring biological data such as blood pressure of a user has a pulse detector for simultaneously obtaining fingerprint data and a first signal from the user's body such as a pulse wave signal. The fingerprint data are used to check if the user is a registered user. After the user's biological data such as pulse waves are measured and a second signal is obtained from the user, the first and second signals are compared to check if this is the same user from whom the fingerprint data were taken in order to prevent the apparatus from being used by a wrong person. Comparison may be made between the first signal and a pattern of pulse waves extracted from earlier obtained pulse waves stored in a memory. Similar components may be used for an exercising machine to prevent it from being used by a person not preliminarily registered or a person different from the one who passed the fingerprint test on the machine.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2003Date of Patent: May 1, 2007Assignee: Omron CorporationInventors: Shinya Noro, Takehiro Hamaguchi, Takefumi Nakanishi, Yasutaka Murase, Susumu Minamikawa

Publication number: 20030092976Abstract: An interactive medical diagnostic device includes control, display, input and memory devices. Dosage data related to administration of medicaments given to a patient and physiological values obtained by measurement from the patient are stored, and an interactive medical examination is carried out by outputting questions to and receiving answers from the patient. These data are compared and propriety of the current treatment of the patient is determined and outputted. Either data on prescribed dosage or those on actually administered dosage may be used by the control device. During the interactive medical examination, the patient may be allowed to review the earlier posed questions and supplied responses. The answers may be given not only in terms of “yes” and “no” but also as “neither.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2002Publication date: May 15, 2003Applicant: OMRON CorporationInventors: Yasutaka Murase, Takehiro Hamaguchi, Takefumi Nakanishi, Shinya Noro, Susumu Minamikawa
