A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11881312B2) discloses a vital sign information sensor designed to acquire vital sign information from a subject's physiological tissue. The sensor includes a sensor element and a memory storing pieces of URI information that can access electronic content from a WEB server on a communication network. The sensor is configured to connect to a vital sign information display apparatus, which determines the connection status and position information of the display apparatus. Upon connection, the sensor selects a piece of URI information based on the display apparatus's position and automatically transmits it to display apparatus, providing electronic content related to the sensor's information.

Furthermore, the patent details a vital sign information display system comprising the sensor and a display apparatus. The system operates by acquiring vital sign information from the subject's tissue, determining the connection status and position of the display apparatus, and automatically accessing electronic content from a WEB server using URI information stored in the sensor's memory. The electronic content includes information specific to the sensor, such as operating manuals or multilingual instructions. The system ensures seamless communication between the sensor and display apparatus, enhancing the accessibility and usability of vital sign information for healthcare professionals and patients alike.
