Application: Biological information measurement device, biological information measurement method, and computer-readable recording medium (Patent ID: US20230393117A1)

The patent filed by Furukawa Electric Co Ltd. describes a biological information measurement device that calculates the scattering rate of light at an interface between a medium in a biological object and a particle in the medium. This device also calculates a concentration index based on the correlation between the scattering rate and the concentration of a target substance. The device uses received-light intensity to perform these calculations, enabling the measurement of biological information related to substances like glucose in blood plasma.

Additionally, the patent includes claims for various aspects of the biological information measurement device, such as the type of light used, the target substances measured (e.g., glucose), the components of the device (e.g., scattering rate calculating unit, concentration index calculating unit), and the methods for calculating concentration index based on different parameters like the area of interface or boundary length of the particle image. The patent also covers the use of a computer to execute the biological information measurement method, as well as the recording medium containing the executable program for calculating the scattering rate and concentration index based on the correlation established in the device.
