| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have investigated that sensor of oxy-hemoglobin using near-infrared lights have excellent fitting characteristics. This is because that performance of sensor used in yes/no judging device and monitoring blood flow during the rehabilitation greatly influences the accuracy of device. In order to realize the near-infrared sensor on the flexible substrate, we have checked the several materials form points of size, flexibility and durability. Also the flexible substrate material required heat and chemical resistance then we have decided that Mitsubishi chemical’s Neo-prim is suitable material for substrate. The sensor structure is metal/electrodeposited germanium/copper/titanium/flexible substrate. Introducing the copper/titanium layer on the substrate is key technique for electrodeposition of germanium on flexible substrate.
For long-time monitoring, the basic system which a caregiver could share the same screen via the Internet in the distant place is developed.
