US Patent 11517225 Multi-purpose dynamically configurable biometric photonics sensor probe

A multi-purpose biometric sensor includes both a transmissive topology and reflective topology for measuring biometric information. The multi-purpose biometric sensor is configured to allow for dynamically switching between the transmissive topology and the reflective topology based on user input or a current measuring scenario. The multi-purpose biometric sensor includes multiple types of light emitting sources and is further configured to dynamically switch between different types of light emitting sources based on user input or a current measuring scenario. The multi-purpose biometric sensor is further configured to measure multiple biometric signals from a single sensor.
