Abstract

A device for assessing the physical condition of a person comprises a belt (10) to be arranged around the person's chest, a sensor unit (50) for detecting a distance between ends (12, 13) of the belt (10), and a processor unit for processing output provided by the sensor unit (50) during operation of the device. The sensor unit (50) comprises a LED (51) for emitting light, a phototransistor (52) for generating an output signal on the basis of a received amount of light, and a light blocking element (53) having a wedge-shaped light-varying section (54). The LED (51) and the phototransistor (52) are associated with one end (12) of the belt (10), while the light-blocking element (53) is associated with the other end (13) of the belt (10). As a result, when the person inhales and exhales, the amount of light that is received by the phototransistor (52) varies, and an output signal of the phototransistor (52) may be used as a measure of the chest circumference.
