Measurement and treatment system and method
First Claim
1. A physiological data measurement system adapted to monitor a subject, comprising:
- a non-intrusive signal emitting mechanism, comprising;
a monitoring mechanism configured to monitor physiological data of and provide support to the subject while the subject is being monitored; and
at least one signal emitter module within the monitoring mechanism;
a signal receiving mechanism configured to receive signals emitted from said at least one signal emitter module; and
a controller configured to control said at least one signal emitter module based at least in part on a determined position of the subject being monitored on the monitoring mechanism.

Abstract
A non-intrusive physiological data measurement system and method, as well as an optically induced treatment system, are described. The measurement system includes a monitoring mechanism that includes light emitter modules capable of emitting light at at least two wavelengths. The light emitted from the light emitter modules is transmitted through a subject and to a light receiving mechanism, such as an optical sensor. Physiological data is taken from the received light. The system also can ascertain movement of the subject by obtaining an initial outline of the subject and comparing that outline with a subsequently obtained outline. A therapeutic optic system includes a non-adhering light emitting mechanism for providing light at therapeutic wavelengths.
