| Research Abstract |
We aimed a unconstrained and unconscious biometric monitoring system using hetero-core fiber optic sensors. As a result, unconstrained respiration monitoring during sleep and pulse pressure sensor in real-time using fiber optics have been proposed and developed. These techniques were also tested by means that multiple subjects tried to be measured, and we confirmed that they were useful for practical daily health monitoring. On the other hands, human motion capturing techniques without vision tools have also developed using fiber optic stretching sensors, which can detect complex motion such as not only bending the human joints but also twisting the body parts.
