Abstract:
An apparatus for measuring bio-information such as blood pressure is provided. The bio-information measuring apparatus includes: a pulse wave sensor configured to measure a pulse wave signal from an object; a fingerprint sensor configured to obtain fingerprint information of the object; and a processor configured to estimate a contact area of the object based on the fingerprint information, and obtain bio-information based on the pulse wave signal and the contact area.
