Tongue fur image acquisition and analysis system with distributed user terminals

Abstract

Provided is a tongue fur image acquisition and analysis system with distributed user terminals. Advantages of the system are that the system is provided with the distributed user application terminals which can stably work on various mobile terminals (such as Android mobile phones of various brands like Samsung, Lenovo, MIUI, Motorola and HTC, other mobile phones with similar level of configuration, and intelligent cameras or intelligent video cameras with a communication function) without additional hardware resource investment so that the system can be really applied to daily life of ordinary people; upgrading work is mainly concentrated on a central unit end so that the whole system is easy to upgrade without any influence on users; and continuous individualized tongue picture analysis can be provided by the system due to specific connection between the mobile terminals and people so that reference is provided for customized health condition monitoring, disease prevention or disease development and treatment process monitoring for the users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a tongue coating image acquisition and analysis system with distributed user terminals. Background technique [0002] Traditional Chinese medicine has accumulated thousands of years of Chinese people's experience in fighting against physical diseases. It has its own unique theoretical basis and philosophical outlook. It is a great treasure of Chinese traditional culture. As an important content of "look" in the four diagnostic methods of traditional Chinese medicine - looking, smelling, asking, and feeling - looking at the tongue coating can understand the physiological and pathological state of the human body through observing the tongue. important role. However, looking at the tongue coating is highly subjective, and the diagnosis of the tongue coating depends on the doctor's experience. With the advancement of digital image technology, image processing technology, and pattern recognition technology, the computer-aided tong...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the existing instruments have overcome various difficulties and reached today's level after more than ten years of development, they still have some significant shortcomings, including: 1) The configuration, operation, and use are too professional: although the purpose of the computer-aided diagnosis and treatment system is to be able to Carry out automated diagnosis and treatment, but the existing instruments need professionals to guide users and operate the instruments; 2) Inconvenient upgrading: the hardware system and software system of the existing instruments are strongly coupled, so it is difficult to directly upgrade the existing instruments 3) Inconvenient communication: Existing instruments work on a single machine in the form of a workstation, and the communication function is poor, so it is difficult to transmit the tongue coating image analysis process and tongue coating image analysis results; 4) Too expensive: consider For the above factors, each instrument integrates all functions, and its price factor also prevents ordinary users from freely performing automatic tongue coating image acquisition and analysis at home, but needs to go to hospitals or research institutions;

[0005] To sum up, the shortcomings of existing instruments are mainly reflected in the waste and dispersion (non-centralization) of resources: their specialization leads to the need for additional professionals to operate on site, resulting in a waste of manpower; their comprehensive functions lead to hardware Waste of resources and computing resources
