A vibration sensor includes a first stationary magnet, a second stationary magnet, a movable magnet positioned between the first and second stationary magnets, and a sensor for sensing movement of the movable magnet. The movable magnet is disposed in a magnetically repulsive relationship with the first stationary magnet and a magnetically attractive relationship with the second stationary magnet.

Vibration sensor including a movable magnet positioned between

A pulsimeter having an improved pulse measurement accuracy by having a good shading is provided. The pulsimeter include a main body 2, a finger insertion section 4 disposed on the main body to be inserted by a finger (FIG. 2), a pulse sensor 5 for sensing pulses of a finger inserted into the finger insertion section 4 (FIG. 2), and a display 6 for displaying the pulses sensed by the pulse sensor 5. The finger insertion section 4 is disposed on a surface (the reverse side of the main body 2) opposite to a surface provided with the display 6.

Pulsimeter provided with or without a pedometer

A pulsimeter includes a main body having a front face and a back face that is opposite the front face. A finger insertion section, into which a finger may be inserted, is arranged on the back face of the main body. Also included is a pulse sensor which is configured to sense pulses from a user's finger that has been inserted into the finger insertion section. A display, which is arranged on the front face of the main body, is configured to display the pulses sensed by the pulse sensor. The display and the finger insertion section are arranged such that the display may be observed by the user while the user's finger is inserted into the finger insertion section.
