A pressure supplier including an actuator that may be selectively expanded and contracted by applying a voltage, an elastic board being transformed in a predetermined direction to apply pressure upon a body part of a user when the actuator is contracted, and a guide member connecting with the actuator and the elastic board, and guiding the elastic board to be transformed in the predetermined direction while applying the pressure when the actuator is contracted.

Pressure-providing instrument and biosignal-measuring device including a pressure-providing instrument

A portable biosignal measurement apparatus and the method is provided. The apparatus includes: a micro pump; a pressure supplier including a cuff which applies a pressure in a direction of a radial artery of a user's wrist by a fluid, which is flowed depending on pressure provided by the micro pump; and a sensor unit to measure a biosignal using displacement of the radial artery.

Portable device for measuring user's biosignals and the method thereof

A biosignal measurement apparatus including: a bracelet membrane to wear around a user's wrist; a fixing supporter to install in a first side portion of the bracelet membrane and to support a first side portion of the wrist; a moving supporter to install in a second side portion of the bracelet membrane, to move towards the fixing supporter, and closely to attach to a second side portion of the wrist; and an information control unit to calculate a distance between the first side portion of the wrist and the second side portion of the wrist by detecting a movement distance of the moving supporter, and to calculate a displacement of the radial artery of the wrist by using a predetermined constant and the calculated distance between the first side portion of the wrist and the second side portion of the wrist.
