Abstract
When a disaster occurs, there is a possibility that lot of suffering person results.Therefore, there are many researches about rescue robots for the disaster. If we can measure sufferer's vital sign at the disaster area, measured data will be useful for triage. So, we are investigating a measured system which is installed on a rescue robot and can measure the vital sign at the disaster area easily. SPO_2 (Arterial blood oxygen saturation degree) is one of the important vital sign of a human.We developed and assessed a SPO_2 measurement system which can measure SPO_2 by only easy touching to the skin. Four subjects were studied with our system. In all cases, our developed system was able to measure SPO_2 correctly.
