The artificial intelligent finger-ring device is designed to pre-alarm heart diseases by detecting potential issues like atrial fibrillation even before symptoms appear. It consists of several components: a detection block, a communication-transmission block, a control block, and a power block. The detection block uses a green light source and a light receiver to generate and capture response light signals from the user's finger. These signals are transmitted to an external device for analysis, which determines time-domain and frequency-domain indices related to heart health.
This wearable device offers continuous monitoring of vital signs, specifically targeting atrial fibrillation and other cardiac arrhythmias that could lead to sudden death. Unlike traditional electrocardiography, which is bulky and requires chest attachment, this ring can be worn comfortably on a finger, making it ideal for continuous use, including during sleep. The device's ability to pre-alarm users about potential heart issues allows for timely medical intervention.
The device includes a detection block with a light receiver and green light source, which reflects off the user's finger to create a response signal. This signal is sent to an external device via the communication-transmission block for analysis. The control block determines if an alert should be issued based on the analysis results, which include time-domain and frequency-domain indices. The power block ensures all components receive the necessary electric power.
The ring features a compact design that houses various blocks essential for its function. The detection block includes both green and red light sources alongside a light receiver, all positioned on the inner surface of the ring to face the finger pulp. This arrangement ensures optimal signal capture. The control block manages the operation frequency of emitted and received light signals, storing these in the storage block for further processing.
The ring also incorporates a sensing block capable of detecting user movement or finger activity. This component uses accelerometers or other sensing technologies to inform the control block about the user's state. Based on this data, the control block can adjust detection activities for real-time monitoring. This integration enhances the device's ability to provide accurate pre-alarms by capturing high-quality response signals when the user's finger is stationary.
