DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0065] Comprehensively, the disclosure can be utilized and perceived in the form of various applications. The principle of the described invention is not intended to limit to the specific device or instrumentation application. The disclosure can be chiefly classified into live clinical diagnostic instrument, telemetry medical apparatus, mobile wellness management device, automated recommendation system, real-time intelligent medical reminder, software medical device and other forms of health management devices.

[0066] FIG. 1 is the reflective near-infrared spectrometer apparatus. The near-infrared light sources 1 and 2 are embedded on the LD board 3 at a quantum distance of k, which are tilted at a boundary angle of .sub.B (where k is the constructive interference reference number). The light emitted by the 1 and 2 are focused by the near-infrared optical lens system 4 placed on the contact surface and tilted at the boundary angle of .sub.B. The quantum distance of wavelength number is maintained between the LDs and the light source objects to obtain a constructive interference (i.e. the distance can vary depending on the relative angle and path length between the light sources or any coherent sources such as slits). The near-infrared light sources 1-2 and optical lens system 4 are tilted at the angle of .sub.B to inject the input signal at the glazing boundary angle on the sensing spot. Bone generally tends to absorb the near-infrared radiation; hence the glazing critical angle phenomenon is utilized to make the light bounce back from the bone boundary. The photodetector-end near-infrared lens system 5 is placed at an optimal distance from the signal probes of 1-2-4 for eluding the internal reflection noises and for capturing the near-infrared reflected response. The reflected response is focused by the optical lens system 5 on the near-infrared photodetector 6, which records the real-time response.

[0067] FIG. 2 is the design of the reflective green spectrometer. The green LED signal probe 7 and green optical lens 8 placed on the contact surface are tilted at a critical angle of .sub.c. The light is injected at the critical angle of .sub.c, so that light reflects off the skin boundary. A photodetector-end optical lens system 9 is placed an optimal response distance to capture the internal-reflection free reflected response. The light concentrated by the optical lens system 9 is recorded by the green photodetector 10.

[0068] FIG. 3 shows the red indicator apparatus for recording the reflective dispersive signals. The light emitted by the red LED 11 is focused on the sensing spot by the red optical lens system 12. A red photodetector 13 and red optical lens 14 set are placed at an internal-reflection free proximity position from the signal probes 11-12. A red photodetector 15 and red optical lens 16 set are placed on the other side of the signal probes 11-12 at a noise free proximity position. A red photodetector-red optical lens system 17-18 set are placed at the distant position from the signal probes 11-12. The red optical lens-red photodetector 20-19 set are placed on the other side at the optimal distant position.

The light emitted by the infrared LED 21 is focused on the sensing spot by the infrared optical lens system 22. An infrared photodetector 23 and infrared optical lens 24 set are placed at an internal-reflection free proximity position from the signal probes 21-22. An infrared photodetector 25 and infrared optical lens 26 set are placed on the other side of the signal probes 21-22 at a noise free proximity position. An infrared photodetector-infrared optical lens system 27-28 set are placed at the distant position from the signal probes 21-22. The infrared optical lens-infrared photodetector 30-29 set are placed on the other side at the optimal distant position. The output response recorded by the set of proximity photodetection probes of 25-26 and 23-24 and the set of distant photodetection probes of 27-28 and 29-30 are analysed to obtain real-time information on the dispersive and non-dispersive signals.

The radiation emitted by 31-32 is constructively focused by a primary near-infrared optical lens system 33 on the mini beam-splitter 34. The beam splitter 34 splits the incoming radiation into the reflected and refracted space. A mini mirror 35 in the reflected space inverts the phase of the reflected radiation and focuses the light on the secondary near-infrared lens system 36. The secondary near-infrared lens 36 is tilted at an angle of .sub.B1 and placed on the contact surface to inject the light at the glazing angle on the sensing spot. The light refracted by 34 is focused by a secondary near-infrared optical lens system 37, which is placed on the other side of the contact surface.
