Abstract

The present invention provides a heartbeat and pulse measuring system comprising a detecting unit, a processing unit and an outputting unit. The detecting unit includes a first light-emitting element, a second light-emitting element and a detecting module. The first light-emitting element emits a first frequency beam to a user'"'"'s body to generate a first scatter light signal. The second light-emitting element emits a second frequency beam to the body to generate a second scatter light signal. The detecting module receives first scattered light signal and the second scattered light signal to covert into a first current signal and a second current signal respectively. The processing unit analyzes and calculates the intensity difference associated with time between the first current signal and the second current signal to produce an analysis information, then the analysis information is outputted by the outputting unit.

a processing module, for obtaining an analysis information by computing the intensity difference between the first current signal and the second current signal in time domain; and

a first transmission module, for transmitting the analysis information; and

an output unit, coupled with the processing unit, for receiving the analysis information for a conversion from the analysis information to a heartbeat and pulse heartbeat and pulse information and exporting the heartbeat and pulse information.

2. The heartbeat and pulse measuring system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first light-emitting element, the second light-emitting element, and the detecting module are spaced at equal intervals.

3. The heartbeat and pulse measuring system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first frequency beam is infrared light.
