Patent attributes
Example embodiments relate to an apparatus for non-invasively estimating bio-information is provided. An apparatus for estimating bio-information may include a sensor part including a pixel array of pixels, each pixel having a light source and a detector; and a processor configured to, based on an object being in contact with the sensor part, drive the sensor part based on a first sensor configuration; obtain contact information of the object based on an amount of light received by each pixel according to the first sensor configuration; determine a second sensor configuration based on the contact information; drive the sensor part based on the second sensor configuration; and estimate the bio-information based on light signals obtained according to the second sensor configuration.
