    Abstract: An apparatus for estimating blood pressure may include: a photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor configured to measure a PPG signal from a user; and a processor configured to: extract a cardiovascular feature from the PPG signal; calculate a first variation in the extracted cardiovascular feature compared to a reference cardiovascular feature measured at a reference time; determine a measurement posture of the PPG signal based on a time interval between two waveform components of the PPG signal; in response to the measurement posture corresponding to the reference posture, estimate the blood pressure based on the first variation; and in response to the measurement posture not corresponding to the reference posture, obtain a second variation by correcting the first variation; and estimate blood pressure based on the second variation.

    Abstract: Disclosed are a power stabilization circuit and a display device to which the power stabilization circuit is applied. The power stabilization circuit includes a thermistor provided on a first path through which an input power is supplied, to limit an inrush current of the power, a relay that provides a second path through which the power is supplied without passing through the thermistor, to allow the power to be transferred through the second path instead of the first path when a current is supplied, and a switching circuit that is switched to supply the current generated from the input power to the relay when an activation signal for activating at least one of a display and a backlight of the display is received.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a plug-integrated adaptor that improves usability of a power strip by reducing interference with adjacent plugs when the adaptor is used in the power strip. A plug-integrated adaptor includes a case body having an open side and a printed circuit board therein, a case base provided to cover the open side of the case body and including a first side extending in a first direction and a second side having a length shorter than a length of the first side, a plug having a pair of pins arranged in a second direction and a plug case protruding from the case base and extending in the second direction, and a connecting member coupled to the pin of the plug and connecting the plug to the printed circuit board. The plug case extending in the second direction is inclined at an angle with a range of 0 to 45 degrees with respect to the case base extending in the first direction.

    Abstract: An apparatus for estimating blood pressure is provided. The apparatus for estimating blood pressure according to an example embodiment includes: a sensor configured to measure a photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal from an object; and a processor configured to detect a position of a dicrotic notch based on a local maximum point and a local minimum point of a second-order derivative signal of the PPG signal, to obtain a first value and a second value from a first section and a second section of the PPG signal divided based on the dicrotic notch of the PPG signal, to obtain a pulse pressure feature value based on the first value and the second value, and to estimate blood pressure based on a variation in the obtained pulse pressure feature value compared to a reference pulse pressure feature value.
