To evaluate the hydration of skin, and the like, a sensor with capacitative cells is connected to a micro-computer through an interface to give an image, with a link to a remote server

摘要

The apparatus to measure the hydration of skin or mucous membranes, at a selected zone, has a sensor (10) with a network of non-optical detection cells and preferably capacitative cells with a spatial resolution of at least 100 micron in at least one direction. An image (60) is derived from the sensor signals at a micro-computer (20) through an interface (30). The micro-computer is linked to a remote server (40) through an Internet or intranet communication network (41).
