Abstract
A user input device includes an optical window facing onto a region of skin of the user when the user input device is in normal use, a monochromatic light source arranged to emit light through the optical window, a spectral dispersal unit adapted to disperse the spectrum of light reflected back from the region of skin of the user, the reflected light no longer being wholly monochromatic due to Raman scattering, and a light sensor operable to detect at least some of the dispersed spectrum of light and output corresponding light data.
