Pulse Information Detection Based on Image Senor

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to simulate the diagnosis by feeling the pulse with Traditional Chinese Medicine,the pulse image acquisition system was developed. A CMOS camera attached to a magnifying lens is used to solve the problem that industrial cameras can not carry out the image acquisition in microspur. The improved system could avoid the influence from environment light. The cantilever beam structure was adopted to obtain the pulse-taking pressure value directly and accurately. The thin film is made of the liquid membrane silica gel, which can overcome some shortages of the previous film. The typical pulse images were collected from the MM-3 pulse pattern generator by using the improved system. The results show that the improved system provides reliable conditions for analyzing the pulse information.
