Abstract
A device connects a light emitting device and a detector. The device includes a first securement device attached to the light emitting device, a second securement device attached to the detector, and a band having a first end connected to the first securement device and a second end connected to the second securement device. The band is made of a flexible material and is configured to align the light emitting device with the detector. The device also includes an extender attached to the first securement device and configured to wrap around the band.
Claims21
A sensor system comprising:
- a light emitting device configured to emit light;
- a first securement device attached to the light emitting device;
- a detector configured to detect the light received from the light emitting device and generate a current based on the amount of light detected;
- a second securement device attached to the detector;
- and
- an adjustable band having a first end connected to the first securement device and a second end connected to the second securement device, the band configured to align the light emitting device and the detector.
