Abstract
A living body information measuring apparatus includes an optical system for irradiating light to a subject and detecting light from the subject, a signal processing portion for acquiring information with regard to a tissue condition of the subject based on a detecting signal of light, and a position determining portion for determining an acceptability of an irradiating position of light based on the detecting signal of light.
Claims15
A living body information measuring apparatus including:
- means for irradiating light to a subject;
- means for detecting light from the subject;
- means for acquiring information with regard to a tissue condition of the subject based on a detecting signal of the light;
- and
- position determining means for determining an acceptability of a position of irradiating the light based on the detecting signal of the light.
A living body information measuring apparatus including:
- a light irradiating portion for irradiating light to a subject;
- means for detecting light diffused, transmitted or reflected in the subject;
- means for acquiring information with regard to a tissue condition of the subject based on a detecting signal of the light;
- position determining means for determining an acceptability of a position of irradiating the light based on the detecting signal of the light;
- a moving mechanism for moving the light irradiating portion substantially in parallel with the body surface of the subject;
- and
- control means for controlling the moving mechanism for moving the light irradiating portion when the position of irradiating the light is determined to be improper.
A living body information measuring apparatus including:
- light irradiating means for irradiating light to a subject;
- means for detecting light diffused, transmitted or reflected in the subject;
- means for acquiring information with regard to a tissue condition of the subject based on a detecting signal of the light;
- and
- means for determining an acceptability of an irradiating intensity of the light based on the detecting signal of the light.
