Detecting neural activity in the brain (or any other turbid medium) is useful for medical diagnostics, imaging, neuroengineering, brain-computer interfacing, and a variety of other diagnostic and consumer-related applications. For example, it may be desirable to detect neural activity in the brain of a user to determine if a particular region of the brain has been impacted by reduced blood irrigation, a hemorrhage, or any other type of damage. As another example, it may be desirable to detect neural activity in the brain of a user and computationally decode the detected neural activity into commands that can be used to control various types of consumer electronics (e.g., by controlling a cursor on a computer screen, changing channels on a television, turning lights on, etc.).
Neural activity and other attributes of the brain may be determined or inferred by measuring responses of tissue within the brain to light pulses. One technique to measure such responses is time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC). Time-correlated single-photon counting detects single photons and measures a time of arrival of the photons with respect to a reference signal (e.g., a light source). By repeating the light pulses, TCSPC may accumulate a sufficient number of photon events to statistically determine a histogram representing the distribution of detected photons. Based on the histogram of photon distribution, the response of tissue to light pulses may be determined in order to study the detected neural activity and/or other attributes of the brain.
A photodetector capable of detecting a single photon (i.e., a single particle of optical energy) is an example of a non-invasive detector that can be used in an optical measurement system to detect neural activity within the brain. An exemplary photodetector is implemented by a semiconductor-based single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD), which is capable of capturing individual photons with very high time-of-arrival resolution (a few tens of picoseconds).
The accompanying drawings illustrate various embodiments and are a part of the specification. The illustrated embodiments are merely examples and do not limit the scope of the disclosure. Throughout the drawings, identical or similar reference numbers designate identical or similar elements.
Optical measurement systems and methods, and wearable modules for use in an optical measurement system, are described herein. For example, an optical measurement system may include a wearable module and a signal processing circuit. A wearable module may include at least one time-resolved single photon photodetector configured to detect photons from at least one light pulse after the at least one light pulse is scattered by a target within a body of a user, at least one light guide configured to receive the photons and guide the photons to the at least one photodetector, and a housing that houses both the at least one photodetector and at least a portion of the at least one light guide. The housing is configured to support and/or house other components of the wearable module. A signal processing circuit may be configured to determine a temporal distribution of the photons detected by the at least one photodetector and generate a histogram based on the temporal distribution of the photons. The signal processing circuit may be housed in the housing or in an additional housing separate from the housing.
The systems, methods, and apparatuses described herein provide various benefits and advantages compared with conventional optical measurement systems, methods, and apparatuses. For example, by integrating a detector and a light guide into a wearable module as described herein, the path length a photon travels along the light guide to the detector is substantially shortened relative to conventional configurations. As a result, temporal dispersion in the detected signal may be substantially reduced or eliminated.
Furthermore, the configurations described herein eliminate long optical fibers used in conventional configurations to connect a wearable module to a detector that is located off the module, thereby improving comfort to the user when wearing the wearable module. In conventional systems, the weight of the long optical fibers applies a torque and other forces to the wearable module, thereby causing the wearable modules to move and thus degrading signal quality. In contrast, by not using long optical fibers, the wearable modules described herein are not subject to such undesirable movement. These and other advantages and benefits of the present systems, methods, and apparatuses are described more fully herein and/or will be made apparent in the description herein.
In some examples, optical measurement operations performed by optical measurement system 100 are associated with a time domain-based optical measurement technique. Example time domain-based optical measurement techniques include, but are not limited to, TCSPC, time domain near infrared spectroscopy (TD-NIRS), time domain diffusive correlation spectroscopy (TD-DCS), and time domain digital optical tomography (TD-DOT).
As shown, optical measurement system 100 includes a detector 104 that includes a plurality of individual photodetectors (e.g., photodetector 106), a processor 108 coupled to detector 104, a light source 110, a controller 112, and optical conduits 114 and 116 (e.g., light guides, as described more fully herein). However, one or more of these components may not, in certain embodiments, be considered to be a part of optical measurement system 100. For example, in implementations where optical measurement system 100 is wearable by a user, processor 108 and/or controller 112 may in some embodiments be separate from optical measurement system 100 and not configured to be worn by the user.
Detector 104 may include any number of photodetectors 106 as may serve a particular implementation, such as 2n photodetectors (e.g., 256, 512, . . . , 16384, etc.), where n is an integer greater than or equal to one (e.g., 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 14, etc.). Photodetectors 106 may be arranged in any suitable manner.
Photodetectors 106 may each be implemented by any suitable circuit configured to detect individual photons of light incident upon photodetectors 106. For example, each photodetector 106 may be implemented by a single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) circuit and/or other circuitry as may serve a particular implementation.
Processor 108 may be implemented by one or more physical processing (e.g., computing) devices. In some examples, processor 108 may execute instructions (e.g., software) configured to perform one or more of the operations described herein.
Light source 110 may be implemented by any suitable component configured to generate and emit light. For example, light source 110 may be implemented by one or more laser diodes configured to emit light in one or more discrete wavelengths or narrow wavelength bands. In some examples, the light emitted by light source 110 is high coherence light (e.g., light that has a coherence length of at least 5 centimeters) at a predetermined center wavelength. In some examples, the light emitted by light source 110 is emitted as a plurality of alternating light pulses of different wavelengths.
Light source 110 is controlled by controller 112, which may be implemented by any suitable computing device (e.g., processor 108), integrated circuit, and/or combination of hardware and/or software as may serve a particular implementation. In some examples, controller 112 is configured to control light source 110 by turning light source 110 on and off and/or setting an intensity of light generated by light source 110. Controller 112 may be manually operated by a user, or may be programmed to control light source 110 automatically.
Light emitted by light source 110 travels via an optical conduit 114 (e.g., a light pipe, a light guide, a waveguide, a single-mode optical fiber, and/or or a multi-mode optical fiber) to body 102 of a subject. Body 102 may include any suitable turbid medium. For example, in some implementations, body 102 is a head or any other body part of a human or other animal. Alternatively, body 102 may be a non-living object. For illustrative purposes, it will be assumed in the examples provided herein that body 102 is a human head.
As indicated by arrow 120, the light emitted by light source 110 enters body 102 at a first location 122 on body 102. Accordingly, a distal end of optical conduit 114 may be positioned at (e.g., right above, in physical contact with, or physically attached to) first location 122 (e.g., to a scalp of the subject). In some examples, the light may emerge from optical conduit 114 and spread out to a certain spot size on body 102 to fall under a predetermined safety limit. At least a portion of light indicated by arrow 120 may be scattered within body 102.
As used herein, “distal” means nearer, along the optical path of the light emitted by light source 110 or the light received by detector 104, to the target (e.g., within body 102) than to light source 110 or detector 104. Thus, the distal end of optical conduit 114 is nearer to body 102 than to light source 110, and the distal end of optical conduit 116 is nearer to body 102 than to detector 104. Additionally, as used herein, “proximal” means nearer, along the optical path of the light emitted by light source 110 or the light received by detector 104, to light source 110 or detector 104 than to body 102. Thus, the proximal end of optical conduit 114 is nearer to light source 110 than to body 102, and the proximal end of optical conduit 116 is nearer to detector 104 than to body 102.
As shown, the distal end of optical conduit 116 (e.g., a light pipe, a light guide, a waveguide, a single-mode optical fiber, and/or a multi-mode optical fiber) is positioned at (e.g., right above, in physical contact with, or physically attached to) output location 126 on body 102. In this manner, optical conduit 116 may collect at least a portion of the scattered light (indicated as light 124) as it exits body 102 at location 126 and carry light 124 to detector 104. Light 124 may pass through one or more lenses and/or other optical elements (not shown) that direct light 124 onto each of the photodetectors 106 included in detector 104.
Photodetectors 106 may be connected in parallel in detector 104. An output of each of photodetectors 106 may be accumulated to generate an accumulated output of detector 104. Processor 108 may receive the accumulated output and determine, based on the accumulated output, a temporal distribution of photons detected by photodetectors 106. Processor 108 may then generate, based on the temporal distribution, a histogram representing a light pulse response of a target (e.g., tissue, blood flow, etc.) in body 102. Example embodiments of accumulated outputs are described herein.
In some examples, SPAD circuit 202 includes a SPAD and a fast gating circuit configured to operate together to detect a photon incident upon the SPAD. As described herein, SPAD circuit 202 may generate an output when SPAD circuit 202 detects a photon.
The fast gating circuit included in SPAD circuit 202 may be implemented in any suitable manner. For example, the fast gating circuit may include a capacitor that is pre-charged with a bias voltage before a command is provided to arm the SPAD. Gating the SPAD with a capacitor instead of with an active voltage source, such as is done in some conventional SPAD architectures, has a number of advantages and benefits. For example, a SPAD that is gated with a capacitor may be armed practically instantaneously compared to a SPAD that is gated with an active voltage source. This is because the capacitor is already charged with the bias voltage when a command is provided to arm the SPAD. This is described more fully in U.S. Pat. Nos. 10,158,038 and 10,424,683, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
In some alternative configurations, SPAD circuit 202 does not include a fast gating circuit. In these configurations, the SPAD included in SPAD circuit 202 may be gated in any suitable manner.
Control circuit 204 may be implemented by an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or any other suitable circuit configured to control an operation of various components within SPAD circuit 202. For example, control circuit 204 may output control logic that puts the SPAD included in SPAD circuit 202 in either an armed or a disarmed state.
In some examples, control circuit 204 may control a gate delay, which specifies a predetermined amount of time control circuit 204 is to wait after an occurrence of a light pulse (e.g., a laser pulse) to put the SPAD in the armed state. To this end, control circuit 204 may receive light pulse timing information, which indicates a time at which a light pulse occurs (e.g., a time at which the light pulse is applied to body 102). Control circuit 204 may also control a programmable gate width, which specifies how long the SPAD is kept in the armed state before being disarmed.
Control circuit 204 is further configured to control signal processing circuit 208. For example, control circuit 204 may provide histogram parameters (e.g., time bins, number of light pulses, type of histogram, etc.) to signal processing circuit 208. Signal processing circuit 208 may generate histogram data in accordance with the histogram parameters. In some examples, control circuit 204 is at least partially implemented by controller 112.
TDC 206 is configured to measure a time difference between an occurrence of an output pulse generated by SPAD circuit 202 and an occurrence of a light pulse. To this end, TDC 206 may also receive the same light pulse timing information that control circuit 204 receives. TDC 206 may be implemented by any suitable circuitry as may serve a particular implementation.
Signal processing circuit 208 is configured to perform one or more signal processing operations on data output by TDC 206. For example, signal processing circuit 208 may generate histogram data based on the data output by TDC 206 and in accordance with histogram parameters provided by control circuit 204. To illustrate, signal processing circuit 208 may generate, store, transmit, compress, analyze, decode, and/or otherwise process histograms based on the data output by TDC 206. In some examples, signal processing circuit 208 may provide processed data to control circuit 204, which may use the processed data in any suitable manner. In some examples, signal processing circuit 208 is at least partially implemented by processor 108.
In some examples, each photodetector 106 (e.g., SPAD circuit 202) may have a dedicated TDC 206 associated therewith. For example, for an array of N photodetectors 106, there may be a corresponding array of N TDCs 206. Alternatively, a single TDC 206 may be associated with multiple photodetectors 106. Likewise, a single control circuit 204 and a single signal processing circuit 208 may be provided for one or more SPAD circuits 202 and/or TDCs 206.
Timing diagram 300 shows a sequence of light pulses 302 (e.g., light pulses 302-1 and 302-2) that may be applied to the target (e.g., tissue within a brain of a user, blood flow, a fluorescent material used as a probe in a body of a user, etc.). Timing diagram 300 also shows a pulse wave 304 representing predetermined gated time windows (also referred as gated time periods) during which photodetectors 106 are gated ON to detect photons. As shown, light pulse 302-1 is applied at a time t0. At a time t1, a first instance of the predetermined gated time window begins. Photodetectors 106 may be armed at time t1, enabling photodetectors 106 to detect photons scattered by the target during the predetermined gated time window. In this example, time t1 is set to be at a certain time after time t0, which may minimize photons detected directly from the laser pulse, before the laser pulse reaches the target. However, in some alternative examples, time t1 is set to be equal to time t0.
At a time t2, the predetermined gated time window ends. In some examples, photodetectors 106 may be disarmed at time t2. In other examples, photodetectors 106 may be reset (e.g., disarmed and re-armed) at time t2 or at a time subsequent to time t2. During the predetermined gated time window, photodetectors 106 may detect photons scattered by the target. Photodetectors 106 may be configured to remain armed during the predetermined gated time window such that photodetectors 106 maintain an output upon detecting a photon during the predetermined gated time window. For example, a photodetector 106 may detect a photon at a time t3, which is during the predetermined gated time window between times t1 and t2. The photodetector 106 may be configured to provide an output indicating that the photodetector 106 has detected a photon. The photodetector 106 may be configured to continue providing the output until time t2, when the photodetector may be disarmed and/or reset. Optical measurement system 100 may generate an accumulated output from the plurality of photodetectors. Optical measurement system 100 may sample the accumulated output to determine times at which photons are detected by photodetectors 106 to generate a TPSF.
Optical measurement system 100 may be implemented by or included in any suitable device(s). For example, optical measurement system 100 may be included in a non-wearable device (e.g., a medical device and/or consumer device that is placed near the head or other body part of a user to perform one or more diagnostic, imaging, and/or consumer-related operations). Optical measurement system 100 may alternatively be included, in whole or in part, in a sub-assembly enclosure of a wearable invasive device (e.g., an implantable medical device for brain recording and imaging).
Alternatively, optical measurement system 100 may be included, in whole or in part, in a non-invasive wearable device that a user may wear to perform one or more diagnostic, imaging, analytical, and/or consumer-related operations. The non-invasive wearable device may be placed on a user's head or other part of the user to detect neural activity. In some examples, such neural activity may be used to make behavioral and mental state analysis, awareness and predictions for the user.
Mental state described herein refers to the measured neural activity related to physiological brain states and/or mental brain states, e.g., joy, excitement, relaxation, surprise, fear, stress, anxiety, sadness, anger, disgust, contempt, contentment, calmness, focus, attention, approval, creativity, positive or negative reflections/attitude on experiences or the use of objects, etc. Further details on the methods and systems related to a predicted brain state, behavior, preferences, or attitude of the user, and the creation, training, and use of neuromes can be found in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/047,991, filed Jul. 3, 2020. Exemplary measurement systems and methods using biofeedback for awareness and modulation of mental state are described in more detail in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 16/364,338, filed Mar. 26, 2019, published as US2020/0196932A1.

No. 16/853,614, filed Apr. 20, 2020, published as US2020/0337624A1. Exemplary measurement systems and methods used for detecting and modulating the mental state of a user through awareness of priming effects are described in more detail in U.S. patent application Ser.

Head-mountable component 502 includes a plurality of detectors 504, which may implement or be similar to detector 104, and a plurality of light sources 506, which may be implemented by or be similar to light source 110. It will be recognized that in some alternative embodiments, head-mountable component 502 may include a single detector 504 and/or a single light source 506.
Brain interface system 500 may be used for controlling an optical path to the brain and/or for transforming photodetector measurements into an intensity value that represents an optical property of a target within the brain. Brain interface system 500 allows optical detection of deep anatomical locations beyond skin and bone (e.g., skull) by extracting data from photons originating from light sources 506 and emitted to a target location within the user's brain, in contrast to conventional imaging systems and methods (e.g., optical coherence tomography (OCT), continuous wave near infrared spectroscopy (CW-NIRS)), which only image superficial tissue structures or through optically transparent structures.
Brain interface system 500 may further include a processor 508 configured to communicate with (e.g., control and/or receive signals from) detectors 504 and light sources 506 by way of a communication link 510. Communication link 510 may include any suitable wired and/or wireless communication link. Processor 508 may include any suitable housing and may be located on the user's scalp, neck, shoulders, chest, or arm, as may be desirable. In some variations, processor 508 may be integrated in the same assembly housing as detectors 504 and light sources 506. In some examples, processor 508 is implemented by or similar to processor 108 and/or controller 112.
As shown, brain interface system 500 may optionally include a remote processor 512 in communication with processor 508. For example, remote processor 512 may store measured data from detectors 504 and/or processor 508 from previous detection sessions and/or from multiple brain interface systems (not shown). In some examples, remote processor 512 is implemented by or similar to processor 108 and/or controller 112.
Power for detectors 504, light sources 506, and/or processor 508 may be provided via a wearable battery (not shown). In some examples, processor 508 and the battery may be enclosed in a single housing, and wires carrying power signals from processor 508 and the battery may extend to detectors 504 and light sources 506. Alternatively, power may be provided wirelessly (e.g., by induction).
In some alternative embodiments, head mountable component 502 does not include individual light sources. Instead, a light source configured to generate the light that is detected by detector 504 may be included elsewhere in brain interface system 500. For example, a light source may be included in processor 508 and/or in another wearable or non-wearable device and coupled to head mountable component 502 through an optical connection.
Each of the light sources described herein may be implemented by any suitable device. For example, a light source as used herein may be, for example, a distributed feedback (DFB) laser, a super luminescent diode (SLD), a light emitting diode (LED), a diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) laser, a laser diode (LD), a super luminescent light emitting diode (sLED), a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL), a titanium sapphire laser, a micro light emitting diode (mLED), and/or any other suitable laser or light source.
In some alternative embodiments, head mountable component 502 does not include individual detectors 504. Instead, one or more detectors configured to detect the scattered light from the target may be included elsewhere in brain interface system 500. For example, a detector may be included in processor 508 and/or in another wearable or non-wearable device and coupled to head mountable component 502 through an optical connection.
Optical measurement system 100 may be modular in that one or more components of optical measurement system 100 may be removed, changed out, or otherwise modified as may serve a particular implementation. Additionally or alternatively, optical measurement system 100 may be modular such that one or more components of optical measurement system 100 may be housed in a separate housing (e.g., module) and/or may be movable relative to other components. Exemplary modular optical measurement systems are described in more detail in U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/081,754, filed Sep. 22, 2020, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/038,459, filed Jun. 12, 2020, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/038,468, filed Jun. 12, 2020, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/038,481, filed Jun. 12, 2020, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/064,688, filed Aug. 12, 2020, which applications are incorporated herein by reference in their respective entireties.
As mentioned, one or more components of optical measurement system 100 (e.g., head-mountable component 502) may be implemented in a wearable module.
As shown in
Housing 602 is configured to support and/or house various components of module 600, including light-emitting member 604 and light-receiving members 606 as well any other components of module 600 not shown in
In some examples, as shown in
As shown in
Light-emitting member 604 is configured to emit light (e.g., light 120, light pulses 302, or light pulse 404) from a distal end (e.g., an upper surface) of light-emitting member 604. Light-emitting member 604 may be implemented by any suitable optical conduit (e.g., optical conduit 114). Light-emitting member 604 is included in a light source assembly that is configured to generate and emit the light toward the target. In the examples shown in
When module 600 is worn by a user, a portion of the light emitted by light-emitting member 604 may be scattered by a target within the body of the user, and a portion of the scattered light (e.g., light 124) may be received by one or more light-receiving members 606 (e.g., one or more light-receiving light guides). Light-receiving members 606 may be implemented by any suitable optical conduit (e.g., optical conduit 116) and/or any other suitable means for conveying light. Light-receiving members 606 are included in a detector assembly configured to receive the scattered light and convey the scattered light (e.g., photons) to a photodetector (e.g., photodetector 106). In the examples shown in
As shown in
In time domain-based optical measurement systems, such as systems based on TD-NIRS, alternating short light pulses of near-infrared (NIR) light in two or more wavelengths are emitted toward a target. A portion of the emitted light is scattered by the target while a portion of the light is absorbed, such as by hemoglobin (Hb) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (deoxy-Hb). Differences in the absorption spectra of Hb and deoxy-Hb at different wavelengths can be measured and used to determine or infer biological activity (e.g., neural activity).
In conventional configurations of optical measurement systems, a light source capable of emitting light in a plurality of different wavelengths is located away from the user so that the emitted light must be conveyed from the light source to the wearable module by a relatively long optical fiber. This creates various problems. For example, the long optical fibers apply torque and other forces to the wearable module, often causing the wearable module to move and shift around when worn by the user. The movement of the wearable module can degrade the detected signal and the overall performance of the optical measurement system. Additionally, the heavy weight of the fibers can make the wearable module uncomfortable to wear. Furthermore, optical measurement systems using long fibers are large, expensive, and difficult to maintain.
To address these issues, light source assembly 802 included in module 600 includes a plurality of light sources 804 (e.g., a first light source 804-1 and a second light source 804-2), an optical member 806, and a light guide 808. Light source assembly 802 also includes a light guide block 810 and a spring member 812, but light guide block 810 and spring member 812 may be omitted in other embodiments. Moreover, while
Each light source 804 is configured to emit light in a distinct wavelength. For example, first light source 804-1 is configured to emit first light 814-1 (e.g., one or more first light pulses) in a first wavelength and second light source 804-2 is configured to emit second light 814-2 (e.g., one or more second light pulses) in a second wavelength that is different from the first wavelength. The first wavelength and the second wavelength may each be a discrete wavelength or narrow wavelength band. For example, the first wavelength may be 750 nm and the second wavelength may be 850 nm. First light source 804-1 and second light source 804-2 may each be implemented by any suitable light source described herein, such as a laser diode configured to emit the first wavelength and the second wavelength, respectively. In some examples, light sources 804 may implement and/or be implemented by light source 110 and/or light source 506. Light sources 804 are disposed (e.g., mounted, attached, etc.) on a light source plate 816, such as but not limited to a printed circuit board (“PCB”). Light source plate 816 may be securely and immovably mounted within housing 602, such as by one or more fasteners (e.g., screws, bolts, snap-fit, etc.).
In the example shown in
In alternative embodiments, optical member 806 may be a prism having any other shape (e.g., a 3- or 4-sided pyramid), a mirror, an optical conduit, a diffractive element, a lens, and/or any other suitable optical device that bends or redirects light. In some examples, light source assembly 802 includes a plurality of optical members each configured to redirect light emitted by a particular light source to light guide 808. Additionally or alternatively, light sources 804 may be configured to emit light in any other direction, such as a direction normal to an upper surface of light sources 804 and/or normal to light source plate 816. Accordingly, optical member 806 may be at any other location to receive the emitted light, such as above light sources 804.
Light guide 808 (e.g., a light-emitting light guide) is configured to receive light 814 from optical member 806 and emit light 814 toward a target within a body of a user when module 600 is worn by a user. Light guide 808 may be implemented by any suitable optical conduit described herein. In some examples, light guide 808 implements or is implemented by optical conduit 114. As shown in
Light guide 808 may be supported within module 600 in any suitable way. In some examples, as shown in
As shown in
In some examples, light guide 808 is configured to move within chamber 818 along an optical axis of light guide 808 (e.g., a longitudinal direction of chamber 818, which is a direction extending from the proximal end of chamber 818 to the distal end of chamber 818). Thus, the extent to which the distal end portion of light guide 808 protrudes from upper surface 614 can be adjusted in order to maintain light guide 808 in physical contact with the user's body.
Spring member 812 is configured to bias the distal end portion of light guide 808 away from upper surface 614. Thus, when module 600 is worn by a user, spring member 812 biases the distal end portion of light guide 808 toward a surface of a body (e.g., skin) of the user, thereby helping to ensure that the distal end portion of light guide 808 is in physical contact with the surface of the body. Spring member 812 may bias the distal end portion of light guide 808 away from upper surface 614 in any suitable way.
In some examples, as shown in
Flange portion 834 has a width (e.g., diameter) approximately equal to a width (e.g., diameter) of chamber 818 (with sufficient tolerance to enable movement of light guide 808) to maintain a lateral position of light guide 808 within chamber 818. Similarly, opening 820 in upper surface 614 and frame support 616 has a width (e.g., diameter) approximately equal to a width (e.g., diameter) of light guide 808 (with sufficient tolerance to enable movement of light guide 808) to maintain a lateral position of light guide 808 within opening 820. With this configuration, a proximal end of light guide 808 may be maintained in optical alignment with optical member 806. In alternative examples, light source assembly 802 does not include spring member 812 or flange portion 834. For instance, chamber 818 may be approximately the same width (e.g., diameter) as light guide 808 and light guide 808 may be immovably attached to light guide block 810 within chamber 818.
To further maintain light guide 808 in optical alignment with optical member 806, as explained above, light source plate 816 is securely mounted within housing 602, thereby preventing movement of light sources 804 and optical member 806 relative to light guide 808.
In some examples, light source assembly 802 may include a controller (e.g., controller 112, processor 508, etc.) configured to control light sources 804 to output one or more light pulses. The controller may be located in any suitable location. In some examples, the controller may be disposed on light source plate 816, support assembly 822, or any other suitable location within housing 602. Alternatively, the controller may be disposed in another device, housing, or module that is separate from module 600 (e.g., a wearable device, a laptop computer, a smartphone, a tablet computer, etc.) and communicatively coupled with light sources 804 by a wired or wireless communication link.
In the example shown in
To address these issues, module 600, when used in a time domain-based optical measurement system, may include a plurality of detector assemblies, as will now be explained with reference to
Each light-receiving member 606 (see
As shown, detector assembly 1002 includes a light guide 1004 and a detector 1006. Detector assembly 1002 also includes a lens system 1008, light guide block 810, a spring member 1010, and support assembly 822, but one or more of these components may be omitted in other embodiments.
Light guide 1004 is configured to receive light scattered by the target (“light 1012”) and guide light 1012 (e.g., photons) toward detector 1006. Light guide 1004 may be implemented by any suitable optical conduit described herein. As shown in
Light guide 1004 may be supported within module 600 in any suitable way. In some examples, as shown in
In some examples, light guide 1004 is supported in a light guide block that is separate from light guide block 810. For example, light guide 1004 may be supported in a light guide block formed separately from upper housing 608 but that is mounted inside upper housing 608 and/or within another chamber (not shown) of light guide block 810.
As shown in
In some examples, light guide 1004 is configured to move within chamber 1014 along an optical axis of light guide 1004 (e.g., a longitudinal direction of chamber 1014, which is a direction extending from the proximal end of chamber 1014 to the distal end of chamber 1014). Thus, the extent to which the distal end portion of light guide 1004 protrudes from upper surface 614 can be adjusted in order to maintain light guide 1004 in physical contact with the user's body.
Spring member 1010 is configured to bias the distal end portion of light guide 1004 away from upper surface 614. Thus, when module 600 is worn by a user, spring member 1010 biases the distal end portion of light guide 1004 toward a surface of the user's body, thereby helping to ensure that the distal end portion of light guide 1004 is in physical contact with the surface of the body. Spring member 1010 may bias the distal end portion of light guide 1004 away from upper surface 614 in any suitable way.
In some examples, as shown in
Flange portion 1018 has a width (e.g., diameter) approximately equal to a width (e.g., diameter) of chamber 1014 (with sufficient tolerance to enable movement of light guide 1004) to maintain a lateral position of light guide 1004 within chamber 1014. Similarly, opening 1016 in upper surface 614 and frame support 616 has a width (e.g., diameter) approximately equal to a width (e.g., diameter) of light guide 1004 (with sufficient tolerance to enable movement of light guide 1004) to maintain a lateral position of light guide 1004 within opening 1016. With this configuration, a proximal end of light guide 1004 may be maintained in optical alignment with detector 1006. In alternative examples, detector assembly 1002-1 does not include spring member 1010. For instance, chamber 1014 may be approximately the same width (e.g., diameter) as light guide 1004 and light guide 1004 may be immovably attached to light guide block 810 within chamber 1014.
To further maintain light guide 1004 in optical alignment with detector 1006, detector 1006 is mounted on support assembly 822 (e.g., on first plate 824 or second plate 826), and support assembly 822 is securely and immovably mounted within housing 602, thereby preventing movement of detector 1006 relative to light guide 1004.
To eliminate a lossy interface between light guide 1004 and detector 1006 while allowing light guide 1004 to move relative to detector 1006, detector assembly 1002-1 includes lens system 1008. Lens system 1008 includes a first lens 1020 and a second lens 1022. First lens 1020 is configured to collimate light 1012 within chamber 1014. In some examples, first lens 1020 is formed integrally with light guide 1004 and/or flange portion 1018, and thus moves within chamber 1014 as light guide 1004 moves (due to action of spring member 1010 and/or pushing by the user's body). As shown in
Second lens 1022 is configured to focus light 1012 onto detector 1006. Second lens 1022 is supported on first plate 824. Second lens 1022 may be supported on first plate 824 in any suitable way. As shown, second lens 1022 is positioned within a recess 1024 in first plate 824, thereby maintaining the position of second lens 1022 fixed relative to first lens 1020. In some embodiments, first plate 824 may be transparent (e.g., formed of glass), and second lens 1022 may be affixed to first plate 824 by a transparent adhesive. In yet other embodiments, second lens 1022 is formed integrally with an optically transparent first plate 824. Detector 1006 is mounted on second plate 826 in an optical path of light 1012. Thus, second lens 1022 focuses light 1012 onto detector 1006. With this configuration of lens system 1008, light 1012 at the proximal end of light guide 1004 is imaged onto detector 1006, thereby eliminating a lossy interface between light guide 1004 and detector 1006.
Detector 1006 may be implemented by any suitable detector described herein (e.g., detector 104, photodetector 106, etc.). In embodiments in which module 600 is configured for use in a time domain-based optical measurement system, detector 1006 may include at least one time-resolved single photon photodetector configured to detect photons from at least one light pulse after the at least one light pulse is scattered by the target. In some examples, detector 1006 comprises a plurality of SPAD circuits (e.g., an array of SPAD circuits 202).
In some examples, other circuitry associated with detector 1006 may also be included in module 600 (e.g., housed within housing 602). For instance, any one or more components of detector architecture 200 (e.g., control circuit 204, TDC 206, and/or signal processing circuit 208) may be housed, partially or entirely, within housing 602. These components may, for example, be disposed on support assembly 822 (e.g., first plate 824 and/or second plate 826) and/or light source plate 816. Additionally or alternatively, any one or more components of detector architecture 200 may be housed, partially or entirely, within an additional housing of another device that is separate from but communicatively coupled with module 600 (e.g., with detector 1006) by a wired or wireless communication link. The other device may be another wearable device or a non-wearable device.
In the configurations just described, light guides 1004 may have a total length of about 10 millimeters (mm) or less, about 5 mm of less, or even 3 mm or less. As a result, the total distance a photon travels from the distal end portion of light guide 1004 to detector 1006 may be approximately 50 mm or less, 40 mm or less, or even 30 mm or less. Such short distances practically eliminates, or renders negligible, any temporal dispersion in the detected signal.
In operation 1802, a first light source housed within a housing of a wearable module emits a first light pulse toward an optical member housed within the housing. The first light pulse has a first wavelength. Operation 1802 may be performed in any of the ways described herein.
In operation 1804, a second light source housed within the housing emits a second light pulse toward the optical member. The second light pulse has a second wavelength that is different from the first wavelength. Operation 1804 may be performed in any of the ways described herein.
In operation 1806, the optical member directs the first light pulse and the second light pulse to a proximal end of a light guide included in the wearable module. Operation 1806 may be performed in any of the ways described herein.
In operation 1808, the light guide emits, from a distal end of the light guide, the first light pulse and the second light pulse toward a target within a body of a user of the wearable module. Operation 1808 may be performed in any of the ways described herein.
In operation 1902, a light guide included in a wearable module being worn by a user receives photons from at least one light pulse after the at least one light pulse is scattered by a target within a body of the user. Operation 1902 may be performed in any of the ways described herein.
In operation 1904, the light guide guides the photons to at least one time-resolved single photon photodetector housed within a housing of the wearable module. Operation 1904 may be performed in any of the ways described herein.
In operation 1906, the at least one time-resolved single photon photodetector detects the photons guided by the light guide. Operation 1906 may be performed in any of the ways described herein.
