DEVICE AND METHOD HAVING AUTOMATIC USER-RESPONSIVE AND USER-SPECIFIC PHYSIOLOGICAL-METER PLATFORM

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a CPU and a memory circuit that has user-corresponding data stored on the memory circuit, and a platform over which a plurality of electrodes are interleaved, and configured for engaging the user. Based on a plurality of impedance-measurement signals being obtained from the electrodes, signals are generated that correspond to cardiovascular timings specific to the user. In such aspects of the present disclosure, pulse characteristic signals are determined based on the plurality of impedance-measurement signals and comparisons of user-obtained data are made relative to user-data profiles stored in the memory circuit.

主权项

1. A weighing scale comprising:
a CPU and a memory circuit with user-corresponding data stored in the memory circuit, and a platform over which a plurality of electrodes are interleaved and configured and arranged for engaging a user while the user stands on the platform; circuitry configured and arranged for obtaining a plurality of measurement signals from the plurality of electrodes, the circuitry having a first power-consumption mode of operation and a second power-consumption mode of operation; the CPU, the memory circuit and the plurality of electrodes being configured and arranged to:
using a signal-sense circuit to sense wireless-signals indicative of the user approaching the platform and, in response, causing the circuitry to transition from the first power-consumption mode of operation to the second power-consumption mode of operation;after the circuitry is operating in the second power-consumption mode of operation, causing the CPU to access the user-corresponding data stored in the memory circuit and thereafter cause a plurality of impedance-measurement signals to be obtained by using the plurality of electrodes while they are contacting the user via the platform and, therefrom, generating signals corresponding to cardiovascular timings of the user.
