Alternative Design A: “Fiber Optics”

 

 

- 590nm single mode fibers, adjacent to glass microbeads

- Glowstick light source and magnifying glass at opposite ends of fiber

- Microbending causing attenuation corresponding to the Korotkoff pulses

- Thread underneath the cuff along the arm

- Color coding option for three pressure zones (dye fibers, vary case thicknesses)

 

Major Issue: Light source not direct enough for effective use of fiber optics
