AN OPTICAL SENSOR SYSTEM OF A WEARABLE DEVICE, A METHOD FOR CONTROLLING OPERATION OF AN OPTICAL SENSOR SYSTEM AND CORRESPONDING COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT

摘要

The invention relates to an optical sensor system (200) of a wearable device (100). The system (200) comprises: at least two photo transmitters (102a, 102b), a photoreceiver (104), receiving electronics (202), and a microcontroller (204). The microcontroller (204) is configured to: set measurement conditions of the system (200); control taking at least one main sample from the received signal at one receiver channel; analyze the at least one main sample; control taking at least one test sample with at least one changed measurement condition at the same receiver channel; analyze the at least one test sample separately; compare at least one characteristic of the at least one test sample signal to the corresponding at least one characteristic of the at least one main sample signal; and change the measurement conditions to correspond to the measurement conditions used for the at least one test sample, if at least one characteristic of at least one test sample signal is better than corresponding at least one characteristic of the at least one main sample signal. The invention relates also to a method for controlling operation of an optical sensor system and a corresponding computer program product.
