BIOMETRIC INFORMATION MEASUREMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD USING USER TERMINAL
First Claim
1. A biometric information measurement apparatus using a user terminal, comprising:
- a light-emitting control unit configured to control output of an optical signal from at least one light emitting element which outputs the optical signal to a part of a body of a user;
a camera which is to be placed to face the part of the body, and configured to capture light generated as a result that the optical signal passes through the part of the body or the optical signal is reflected off of the part of the body;
an image analysis unit configured to analyze an image captured using the camera; and
a biometric information measurement unit configured to measure biometric information about the user based on a result of the image analysis.

Abstract
Disclosed herein is a biometric information measurement apparatus using a user terminal. The biometric information measurement apparatus includes a light-emitting control unit, a camera, an image analysis unit, and a biometric information measurement unit. The light-emitting control unit controls the output of an optical signal from at least one light emitting element which outputs the optical signal to a part of a body of a user. The camera is to be placed to face the part of the body, and configured to capture light generated in such a way that the optical signal passes through the part of the body or the optical signal is reflected off of the part of the body. The image analysis unit analyzes an image captured using the camera. The biometric information measurement unit measures biometric information about the user based on the results of the image analysis.
