當使用者按下按鍵210,控制器310會收到來自感應器230的觸發信號,然後控制器310因應此觸發信號而發出電子信號S1。放大器322放大電子信號S1並將其輸出至光發射器221。光發射器221將放大後的電子信號S1轉換為光信號,並透過按鍵210發出光信號。當光發射器221所發出的光信號遇到一物件,例如使用者的手指或其他皮膚部位後,此光信號會反射回並通過按鍵210而被光接收器241接收。接著,光接收器241會將反射的光信號轉換為另一個電子信號S2,並傳送電子信號S2至濾波器332。濾波器332濾除電子信號S2中的雜訊。放大器334放大電子信號S2。類比數位轉換器336將放大後的電子信號S2自一類比信號轉換為一數位信號。儲存單元338將類比數位轉換器336輸出的數位信號轉換為二進位數值,並儲存此對應於該數位信號的二進位數值,以供控制器310讀取。控制器310收集並分析此二進位數 值後,可根據此二進位數值獲得使用者的生理資訊。 When the user depresses button 210, the controller 310 receives a trigger signal from the sensor 230, and controller 310 in response to this trigger signal to emit an electronic signal S 1. The amplifier 322 amplifies the electronic signal S 1 and outputs it to the light emitter 221. The light emitter 221 converts the amplified electronic signal S 1 into an optical signal and emits an optical signal through the button 210. When the light signal emitted by the light emitter 221 encounters an object, such as a user's finger or other skin site, the light signal is reflected back and received by the light receiver 241 via the button 210. Next, the light receiver 241 converts the reflected optical signal into another electronic signal S 2 and transmits the electronic signal S 2 to the filter 332. Filter 332 to filter out noise in the second electrical signal S. Amplifier 334 amplifies electronic signal S 2 . The analog to digital converter 336 converts the amplified electronic signal S 2 from an analog signal to a digital signal.

圖4是依照本發明的一實施例的一種生理量測方法的流程圖,攜帶式電子裝置100可執行此方法來量測使用者的生理資訊。當使用者按下按鍵210,感應器230在步驟405感應到按鍵210受壓,然後在步驟410發出觸發信號以喚醒處理器130,並發出另一個觸發信號以喚醒控制器310。在另一實施例中,感應器230可發出同一個觸發信號至處理器130和控制器310。當處理器130收到觸發信號,處理器130可根據該觸發信號控制攜帶式電子裝置100從一睡眠狀態進入一操作狀態。在此實施例中,攜帶式電子裝置100的睡眠狀態和操作狀態的定義是顯示器140是否有顯示畫面。當攜帶式電子裝置100在睡眠狀態時,顯示器140係被關閉。而在操作狀態時,顯示器140係被啟動,以顯示一操作畫面。 FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a physiological measurement method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The portable electronic device 100 can perform the method to measure physiological information of a user. When the user presses the button 210, the sensor 230 senses that the button 210 is pressurized at step 405, then issues a trigger signal at step 410 to wake up the processor 130 and issue another trigger signal to wake up the controller 310. In another embodiment, the sensor 230 can issue the same trigger signal to the processor 130 and the controller 310. When the processor 130 receives the trigger signal, the processor 130 can control the portable electronic device 100 to enter an operating state from a sleep state according to the trigger signal. In this embodiment, the definition of the sleep state and the operating state of the portable electronic device 100 is whether the display 140 has a display screen. When the portable electronic device 100 is in a sleep state, the display 140 is turned off. While in the operational state, display 140 is activated to display an operational screen.

控制器310接收來自感應器230的觸發信號,並在步驟415根據此觸發信號而控制感測模組110的光發射器透過按鍵210向按鍵210的外側發出一第一光信號,然後感測模組110的光接收器在步驟420透過按鍵210接收所發出的第一光信號遇到物件 所反射回的一第二光信號。控制器310在步驟425檢查光接收器是否收到反射的第二光信號。如果沒收到,表示使用者的手指在按壓按鍵210之後立即放開,無法量測生理資訊,所以控制器310在步驟440進入睡眠狀態。 The controller 310 receives the trigger signal from the sensor 230, and controls the light emitter of the sensing module 110 to emit a first optical signal to the outside of the button 210 through the button 210 according to the trigger signal, and then senses the mode. The optical receiver of group 110 encounters the object by receiving the first optical signal emitted by button 210 at step 420. A second optical signal reflected back. Controller 310 checks in step 425 whether the optical receiver receives the reflected second optical signal. If not received, it indicates that the user's finger is released immediately after pressing the button 210, and the physiological information cannot be measured, so the controller 310 enters a sleep state at step 440.

如果光接收器收到反射的光信號,則控制器310在步驟430檢查儲存單元338提供的數值是否已足夠獲得使用者的生理資訊。如果不夠,則控制器310在步驟435檢查目前進行的生理量測是否已經逾時(timeout)。例如這個逾時的時限可設定為0.5秒、1秒、2秒或3秒。如果尚未逾時,則流程返回步驟415以收集更多數值供控制器310分析。如果已經逾時,則控制器310在步驟440進入睡眠狀態。 If the optical receiver receives the reflected optical signal, the controller 310 checks in step 430 whether the value provided by the storage unit 338 is sufficient to obtain the physiological information of the user. If not, the controller 310 checks in step 435 whether the currently performed physiological measurement has timeout. For example, the time limit for this timeout can be set to 0.5 seconds, 1 second, 2 seconds, or 3 seconds. If it has not expired, the flow returns to step 415 to collect more values for analysis by controller 310. If it has timed out, the controller 310 enters a sleep state at step 440.

回到步驟430,若檢查結果是儲存單元338提供的數值已足夠獲得使用者的生理資訊,則控制器310在步驟445分析上述數值以獲得使用者的生理資訊。然後控制器310在步驟450檢查是否需要通知處理器130來讀取生理資訊,因為可能在生理資訊累積到預設數量後才需要通知處理器130來讀取生理資訊。如果不需要通知處理器130,則控制器310在步驟440進入睡眠狀態。如果需要通知處理器130,則控制器310在步驟455向處理器130發出通知信號。處理器130根據此通知信號自控制器310取得使用者的生理資訊。處理器130可將生理資訊儲存於儲存裝置150,或控制顯示器140以顯示生理資訊,或對生理資訊做進一步處理。 Returning to step 430, if the result of the check is that the value provided by the storage unit 338 is sufficient to obtain the physiological information of the user, the controller 310 analyzes the above value in step 445 to obtain the physiological information of the user. The controller 310 then checks in step 450 whether the processor 130 needs to be notified to read the physiological information, as it may be necessary to notify the processor 130 to read the physiological information after the physiological information has accumulated to a predetermined amount. If the notification processor 130 is not required, the controller 310 enters a sleep state at step 440. If the processor 130 needs to be notified, the controller 310 sends a notification signal to the processor 130 at step 455. The processor 130 acquires the physiological information of the user from the controller 310 according to the notification signal. The processor 130 can store the physiological information in the storage device 150 or control the display 140 to display physiological information or further process the physiological information.

In the flowchart, the portable electronic device 100 can perform this method to utilize physiological information to verify the identity of the user. For example, a heartbeat waveform is like a fingerprint that can be used to identify an identity. The portable electronic device 100 can perform the method shown in FIG. 4 at step 510 to obtain physiological information of a certain user. The processor 130 can store the physiological information in the storage device 150 at step 520. This physiological information can be used as the identity certificate of the user. Then, when the button 210 is pressed by the user, the portable electronic device 100 can perform the method shown in FIG. 4 again in step 530 to obtain the physiological information of the user. In this embodiment, the button 210 is a power button of the portable electronic device 100.

接下來,處理器130可在步驟540比對步驟530的量測 所得的生理資訊與步驟520存入在儲存裝置150的生理資訊,並在步驟550檢查這兩次量測所得的生理資訊是否符合。如果不符合,表示步驟530的使用者並非正確使用者,流程至此結束。如果兩次量測所得的生理資訊符合,表示步驟530的使用者是正確使用者,則處理器130可在步驟560執行對應的預設功能。 Next, the processor 130 may compare the measurements of step 530 at step 540. The obtained physiological information and the step 520 are stored in the physiological information of the storage device 150, and in step 550, it is checked whether the physiological information obtained by the two measurements is consistent. If not, the user indicating step 530 is not the correct user, and the process ends here. If the physiological information obtained by the two measurements is consistent, indicating that the user of step 530 is the correct user, the processor 130 may perform the corresponding preset function at step 560.

As previously mentioned, display 140 is a touch display. In this embodiment, the locked state means that the display 140 displays a lock screen, which needs to be unlocked by a conventional sliding unlocking or password unlocking mode to enter an operable state, thereby displaying Various application icons and function buttons are provided for the user to touch. However, through the method of FIG. 5 above, the portable electronic device 100 can use the physiological information to verify the identity of the user, thereby directly releasing the locked state of the display 140, and omitting the conventional sliding unlocking or password unlocking. Or above The preset function may further include controlling the display 140 to display the physiological information of the user. Alternatively, the preset function described above may further include controlling the display 140 to display related information of the physiological information.
