Mensuration process with regard to noinvasive biometric apparatus 1 describes below.Fig. 9 is the flow chart that noinvasive biometric apparatus 1 is carried out measurement operation.At first, as shown in Figure 1, band 2 is tied to the user arm, and noinvasive biometric apparatus 1 is worn in wrist.At this moment, the user arm is applied certain pressure by band 2, and the blood flow around the wrist is obstructed, and the blood vessel of wrist expands.Then, user is pressed the power supply/execute key 38 on the noinvasive biometric apparatus 1, and the initialization of software is then carried out in 1 one energisings of noinvasive biometric apparatus, simultaneously, checks each position state (step S1).Subsequently, device is in holding state, and holding state picture shown in Figure 6 is presented at display 54 (step S2).
When the holding state picture was presented on the display 54, user was by power supply/execute key 38 (S3 selects "Yes" in step), and then para-position picture shown in Figure 7 (step S4) appears in display 54.At this moment, CPU53a allows light emitting diode R1, the R2, L1, the L2 that are disposed at light source 51 luminous respectively with certain light quantity, irradiation shooting district CR (Fig. 4), and shooting district CR (step S5) is shone in shooting.
Figure 10 is divided into the accompanying drawing of X, Y two-dimensional coordinate in 0≤x≤640,0≤y≤480 scopes for the rectangular region that will comprise shooting district CR.CPU53a as shown in figure 10, coordinate with the upper left pixel of the rectangular region A that comprises shooting district CR image is (0,0), regional A is divided into X, Y two-dimensional coordinate with coordinate, from the point that coordinate is cut apart, selects (240,60), (400,60), (240,420), (400,420) 4 points.CPU53a asks these 4 mean flow rates (step S6) that cross area B.The coordinate of determining area B is not limited thereto, and other coordinates also can.In addition, area B also can be polygon or the circle beyond the quadrangle.
Next, CPU53a judges that the brightness of area B is whether in target zone (step S7).If the brightness of area B outside target zone, is then adjusted the magnitude of current that flows into light emitting diode R1, R2, L1, L2 by light source input and output interfaces 53d, carry out light quantity and regulate (step S8), and return step S1.If the brightness of area B (is selected "Yes" at step S7) in target zone, then CPU53a is set at initial value (40) (step S9) with the Y coordinate figure of the calculating object of aftermentioned brightness waveform.Ask the pixel intensity of the X coordinate end to end on set Y coordinate figure (40).As shown in figure 11, can obtain the pixel intensity waveform (brightness waveform PF) (step S10) of the directions X on certain Y coordinate with this.CPU53a judges whether set Y coordinate figure is final value (440) (step S11).If the Y coordinate is not a final value (440) (S11 selects "No" in step), then CPU53a is to Y coordinate figure increment certain value (20) (step S12), and processing is turned back to step S10.If the Y coordinate is a final value (440) (S11 selects "Yes" in step), then CPU53a extracts the minimum point (to call " brightness minimum point " in the following text) of brightness in each brightness waveform that extracts, and stores frame memory 53e (step S13) into.
Figure 12 is a key diagram of asking the method for vessel position.Promptly, as shown in figure 12, CPU53a will make a video recording and distinguish near the brightness minimum point of CR picture centre (a1, b1) difference brightness minimum point therewith (a1, b1) vertical adjacent brightness minimum point (a2, b2) reach (a3, b3) connect, (a2 b2) is connected with vertical adjacent point with the brightness minimum point again, (a3 b3) is connected with vertical adjacent some the brightness minimum point.CPU53a carries out this operation repeatedly in entire image, until blood vessel is come out as line extraction, form vascular graphic 61 (step S14).CPU53a shows the image of the shooting district CR that takes as shown in Figure 7 on display 54, and vascular graphic 61, the markings 62a that is stored in flash card 53j and markings 62b (Fig. 4), labelling 63,64,65 and 66 (the step S15) of step display S5 formation.CPU53a judges whether vascular graphic 61 is positioned at regional 62c (Fig. 4) (step S16).If vascular graphic 61 is not positioned at regional 62c (S16 selects "No" in step), CPU53a bright labelling 63,64,65 and 66 respectively then, the direction that indicating instrument main frame 3 should move (step S17), and processing returned step S1.
If vascular graphic 61 is positioned at regional 62c (S16 selects "Yes" in step), it is effective that then CPU53a makes power supply/execute key 38, can continue to measure.At this moment, CPU53a ring sound notice user power supply/execute key 38 effective (step S18).Then, CPU53a waits for the input (step S19) from power supply/execute key 38.User is pressed power supply/execute key 38, and indication continues to measure (S19 selects "Yes" in step), and then CPU53a carries out the mensuration (step S20) of hemoglobin concentration, as shown in Figure 8 measurement result is presented at display 54 (step S21).
Figure 13 is the detail flowchart of handling at the hemoglobin concentration that the step S20 of flow chart shown in Figure 9 implements.At first, CPU53a control light source input and output interfaces 53d, light emitting diode R1, the R2 (first light source) that are disposed at a sidelight source in the light source of both sides with the folder blood vessel shine with suitable light quantity and contain blood vessel at interior organism (step S101), with camera system 52 take pictures (step S102).Next, CPU53a judges whether the mean flow rate of area B surpasses 100 (step S103).If brightness does not surpass 100, then CPU53a adjusts the magnitude of current that flows to light emitting diode R1, R2 with light source input and output interfaces 53d, regulates the light quantity (step S104) of light emitting diode R1, R2, returns step S102 afterwards.
The digital translation value (changing) of 8 bit pads that the image input interface 53f that refers to use in the present embodiment in the value of this said brightness is had from 0~255.The size of the picture signal of the brightness of image and CCD photographing unit 52c input is directly proportional, and therefore, is brightness value with the A/D conversion value (0~255) of picture signal.
When the mean flow rate of area B surpassed 100 (S103 selects "Yes" in step), CPU53a obtained the brightness waveform PF1 of relevant step S102 gained image and does not rely on the concentration waveform NP1 (step S105) that injects light quantity.CPU53a also controls light source input and output interfaces 53d, light emitting diode L1, the L2 (secondary light source) that are disposed at opposite side light source in the light source of both sides with the folder blood vessel shine with suitable light quantity and contain blood vessel at interior organism (step S106), with camera system 52 take pictures (step S107).Then, CPU53a judges whether the mean flow rate of area B surpasses 100 (step S108).If brightness does not surpass 100, then CPU53a adjusts the magnitude of current that flows to light emitting diode L1, L2 with light source input and output interfaces 53d, regulates the light quantity (step S109) of light emitting diode L1, L2, returns step S107 afterwards.
When the mean flow rate of area B surpassed 100 (S108 selects "Yes" in step), CPU53a carried out the same processing with step S105 for step S107 gained image, obtained brightness waveform PF2 and did not rely on the concentration waveform NP2 (step S110) that injects light quantity.
Figure 15 is the scattergram of the brightness B of correspondence position X, and brightness waveform PF1 forms by step S105, and brightness waveform PF2 forms by step S110.Figure 16 is the scattergram of the concentration D of correspondence position X, and concentration waveform NP1 forms by step S105, and concentration waveform NP2 forms by step S110.
CPU53a obtains peak height h1 and barycentric coodinates cg1 from the concentration waveform NP1 that step S105 obtains respectively, the concentration waveform NP2 that obtains from step S110 obtains peak height h2 and barycentric coodinates cg2, and with these values of obtaining, calculate blood vessel depth index S by following formula (1), store result of calculation into frame memory 53e (step S111).
S=(cg2-cg1)/{(h1+h2)/2}……(1)
CPU53a calculates the light amount ratio and the luminous quantity (step S112) of the light source (light emitting diode R1, R2 and light emitting diode L1, L2) about blood vessel respectively according to the brightness waveform PF1 of step S105 acquisition and the brightness waveform PF2 of step S110 acquisition.CPU53a regulates the luminous quantity (step S113) of two light sources according to gained result of calculation.
Particularly, brightness waveform (with reference to Figure 15) in the bright lamp of bright lamp image in right side (step S102) and left side (the bright lamp of light emitting diode L1, L2) [secondary light source] gained bright lamp image in left side (step S106) generation that obtains according to the bright lamp in right side (the bright lamp of light emitting diode R1, R2) [first light source], high-high brightness position with left-half is x1, is x2 with right half part high-high brightness position.The brightness value of establishing the x1 position on the brightness waveform PF2 when the bright lamp in left side is L1, and the brightness value of x2 position is L2, and on the brightness waveform PF1 when the bright lamp in right side, the brightness value of establishing the x1 position is R 1, the brightness value of x2 position is R 2
If the current value of left and right sides light source is expressed as current value=(left and right), current value=(a C left side, 0) during left side bright lamp, current value during right side bright lamp=(0, the C right side), then the Luminance Distribution when making the bright lamp in both sides is that source current that level (evenly) is carried out distributes can be by a left side: the right side=x: the electric current when ratio (1-x) distributes one-sided bright lamp.That is current value=(an xC left side, (1-x) C right side) during the bright lamp in both sides.
If x=-(R 1-R 2)/{ (L 1-L 2)-(R 1-R 2), then with the L that as above stipulates 1, L 2, R 1And R 2Value, can obtain x.Such as, if current value=(18,0), the current value the when right side is bright=(0,16), x=0.4375 when the left side is bright, the current value when then both sides are bright=(18 * 0.4375,16 * 0.4375)
Figure 2007101513495_0
(8,9).So, the light quantity that can regulate two light sources is calculated the CR (step S114) with the shooting district, illumination shooting district CR equably to take hemoglobin concentration.
CPU53a control light source input and output interfaces 53d, with light emitting diode R1, R2, L1 and L2 through light modulation is shooting district CR illumination, with camera system 52 take pictures (step S114), the same with step S6 then, ask the mean flow rate of area B shown in Figure 10, judge whether the mean flow rate of the area B of asking surpasses 150 (step S115).If do not surpass 150, then show wrong (step S116).
The mean flow rate of area B is as surpassing 150 (S115 selects "Yes" in step), then CPU53a draws expression corresponding to the brightness waveform of first Luminance Distribution of shooting district CR (Fig. 4) axis AX (to the distribution of the brightness B of position X) PF (Figure 11), reduces noise component with the fast Fourier transform (FFT) scheduling algorithm.CPU53a also formats this brightness waveform PF with datum line BL.This datum line BL is that try to achieve on the basis with the brightness waveform of blood vessel absorption portion.Like this, just can obtain not relying on the concentration waveform of injecting light quantity (with respect to the distribution of the concentration D of position X) NP (step S117).
Figure 14 is the scattergram with respect to the concentration D of position X, and the concentration waveform NP of formation promptly as shown in the figure.Then, CPU53a calculates peak height h and half value fabric width w according to the concentration waveform NP that forms.Represent the light intensity by survey blood vessel (blood) and the ratio of the light intensity by tissue part at this gained h, i.e. the degree of the light intensity that absorbs of blood vessel; W represents to be equivalent to the length of blood vessel diameter.CPU53a also uses following formula (2) to calculate and does not revise hemoglobin concentration D, and the result is stored in frame memory 53e (step S118).
D=h/w n……(2)
Wherein, the non-linear constant widened for the half value width of cloth that brings of expression light scattering of n.During no light scattering, n=1, when light scattering is arranged, n>1.
Next, CPU53a analyzes the tissue picture (step S119) around step S114 gained biometric image medium vessels, and that calculates contained blood volume in this perienchyma of expression organizes blood volume index M (step S120).Particularly, according to being arranged in, extract the Luminance Distribution that distributes along this blood vessel picture apart from the blood vessel of biometric image blood vessel perienchyma picture as this biometric image of certain distance (for example 2.5mm).Not only taking in the biometric image has the purpose blood vessel, also has this circumvascular tissue.Brightness in the image also is exponential function decay, the ratio of brightness decay and the proportional variation of the blood volume in the cell with light source to the distance of irradiation position.Therefore, as long as calculate the brightness decay rate of perivascular cells picture, can extrapolate the blood volume in the perienchyma.
Blood vessel in photographic images, be arranged in slightly by middle, like with middle body is vertical be truncated into about on the position of (about Fig. 3~4 are) two-stage nitration.Therefore, can use in the calculating of above-mentioned attenuation rate parallel with this blood vessel, apart from blood vessel only on the straight line of certain distance (as markings 62a or 62b among Fig. 4) or along collinear Luminance Distribution (also claiming second Luminance Distribution) (following Luminance Distribution (first Luminance Distribution)) corresponding to transversal blood vessel.
Suppose that blood vessel perienchyma is average substantially, though then the light that sends of light source is the exponential function decay with the distance of distance light source, but because as the light emitting diode of light source be disposed at shooting district CR about (about in Fig. 3~4 being), so above-mentioned second Luminance Distribution is reciprocal parabolic shape to the exponential function coincidence.Figure 17 is the displayed map along the second Luminance Distribution example of blood vessel picture distribution.The longitudinal axis is brightness in Figure 17, and transverse axis is the position of shooting district inner rim tissue along the blood vessel picture.Such as, be example with second Luminance Distribution of measuring on the markings 62b (with reference to Fig. 4), d1 on the transverse axis and d2 correspond essentially to above-mentioned markings 62b and distinguish cross point d1 and the d2 of CR with circular the shooting as shown in Figure 4.
In Figure 17, parabolic curve m represents the brightness of actual measurement, and exponential function n and exponential function o represent the exponential function that this curve m is divided into two with the aftermentioned method.Parabolic curve p is the figure that forms of the above-mentioned exponential function n of superposition and exponential function o in theory, shows consistent with actual measured value.
Parabolic curve m to be divided into two exponential function n and exponential function o, at first will cast out the part that there is saturated sense at two ends among the parabolic curve m, only stay and in fact to be considered as parabolical part.If the left end brightness of the part of staying is that the brightness of y0, minimum mid portion is y1.If each pixel of adjacent pixels brightness is (r * 100) %, this r is defined as attenuation rate.
So, at the above-mentioned left end that stays part, the light that top light emitting diode R1 sends is 100%, the light decay that below light emitting diode R2 sends is kept to the w power of attenuation rate r, therefore, the initial value D0 of the initial value U0 of top light emitting diode R1 and below light emitting diode R2 can be respectively with following formula (3), (4) expression.
U0=y0/(1+r w)……(3)
D0=y0/(1+r w)……(4)
At mid portion, the light that sends of light emitting diode all decays to the w/2 power of r up and down, and therefore following formula (5) is set up.
y1=2×U0×r w/2
=2×y0/(1+r w)×r w/2……(5)
Separate formula (5) with regard to r, can obtain attenuation rate r.If r W/2=X then,
( y 0 - y 0 · y 0 - y 1 · y 1 y 1 ) 2 w
If disclose the described traditional method of 2004-162471 communique, need optical sensor with far and near two special light sources and this source light of detection with U. S. application.And, be v1 if establish the nearside light source projects to the light quantity of optical sensor, the distally light source projects is v2 to the light quantity of optical sensor, then uses M=log (v1/v2) to ask the above-mentioned blood volume index M that organizes.
At this, the definition of attenuation rate r is that each pixel of neighbor brightness is (r * 100) %.Be Ln if establish nearside light source in the above-mentioned traditional method to the distance (pixel unit) of optical sensor, the distally light source is Lf to the distance (pixel unit) of optical sensor, and then about the nearside light source, brightness decay is that r multiply by Ln, about the distally light source, brightness decay is the Lf power of r.Therefore learn,
M=log (C * r Ln)/(C * r Lf), can replace above-mentioned v1, v2 with attenuation rate r and calculate and organize the same value of blood volume index M.C is the early stage light value (the not light value of decaying because of tissue) of above-mentioned nearside light source or distally light source.
CPU53a obtains correction coefficient fs according to the blood vessel depth index S that step S111 calculates, and the blood volume index M that organizes that calculates according to step S120 obtains correction coefficient fm.With these values of obtaining, calculate the correction hemoglobin concentration Do (step S121) that forms by following formula (6).
Do=D×fs×fm……(6)
CPU53a deposits the result of calculation of step S121 in frame memory 53e (step S122), returns mastery routine.
Figure 18 is the hemoglobin concentration at several examinees, measured value that will record with blood-counter system etc. and the figure that is depicted as with the value that the noinvasive organism determinator 1 of embodiment of the present invention calculates.As shown in figure 18, the value that measured value and noinvasive organism determinator 1 calculate all is positioned near the straight line of inclination, measured value and the value of calculating zero difference, and hence one can see that, and noinvasive organism determinator 1 can accurately be measured hemoglobin concentration.
Present embodiment as mentioned above, according to the bright lamp image in right side of the bright lamp in right side (light emitting diode R1, R2 are bright) gained and the bright lamp image in left side of the bright lamp in left side (light emitting diode L1, L2 are bright) gained, regulate the light quantity of two light sources (first light source and secondary light source), so that obtain hemoglobin concentration calculating photographic images.Light right side light emitting diode R1, R2 (first light source) and light emitting diode L1, L2 (secondary light source) so respectively and take, in the time of can obtaining to reflect the bright lamp in right side during the bright lamp in the bright lamp image in right side (first biometric image) of shooting district CR brightness and reflection left side shooting distinguish the bright lamp image in left side (second biometric image) of CR brightness.Can understand of the influence of each light source light quantity from these biometric images, know each dimming light source can make shooting district CR brightness even to which kind of degree shooting district CR brightness.Therefore, the light quantity of using the bright lamp image of bright lamp image in above-mentioned right side and left side can regulate two light sources obtains the light quantity that is suitable for taking.
