Problems solved by technology

[0004] Compared with the traditional canes, the canes currently on the market have greatly changed their functions, such as strengthening the simple functions such as anti-slip, lighting, and radio, but they still lack humanized care functions: if it is impossible to accurately determine whether the elderly have fallen or Abnormal or unexpected situations such as sudden physical discomfort

Embodiment 1

[0042] When the user puts the cane aside, or accidentally falls, etc. and causes the cane to drop, the microprocessor module 1 detects that the signals output by the capacitance sensor 2 and the vibration sensor 3 do not change, and the timing module automatically counts the time immediately. If the signal output by the vibration sensor 3 within 30 seconds remains unchanged, the microprocessor module 1 controls the voice module 6 to automatically send a relatively weak alarm sound of "didi", and the LED light used for status display in the control display module 7 sends out Flashes to prompt the user whether to continue using the cane. If the user determines to no longer use the walking stick, then turn off the walking stick power switch 9 to get final product. If the user needs to continue using the cane, just pick it up, the "Didi" alarm sound will disappear automatically, and the LED light will stop flashing. If the old man falls down and is in a coma and cannot hear the "...

Embodiment 2

[0044]When the user does not use the cane in a short period of time, or accidentally falls, etc. and the cane is not released, the microprocessor module 1 detects that the signal output by the capacitance sensor 2 has changed, but when the signal output by the vibration sensor 3 has not changed, The timing module automatically counts the time immediately. If the signal output by the vibration sensor 3 within 30 seconds remains unchanged, the microprocessor module 1 controls the voice module 6 to automatically send a relatively weak alarm sound of "didi", and the LED light used for status display in the control display module 7 sends out Flashes to prompt the user whether to continue using the cane.

Abstract

The invention provides an intelligent walking stick based on Internet of Things. The intelligent walking stick based on Internet of Things comprises a microprocessor module, a capacitive sensor, a vibrating sensor, a GPS positioning module, a GPRS communication module, a voice module, a display module, a USB interface, a power switch and an intelligent mobile device. The capacitive sensor, the vibrating sensor, the GPRS communication module, the GPS positioning module, the voice module, the display module, the USB interface and the power switch are connected with the microprocessor module. The microprocessor module performs data communication with the intelligent mobile device through the GPRS communication module. The intelligent walking stick can accurately judge the accidental tumble or body discomfort or other abnormal or emergency situations of an old person, can automatically send a help seeking signal to the surroundings, enables the old person to be timely helped within shortest time, and efficiently guarantees the body of the old person. In addition, care and worry feelings of relatives are relieved, economic burden is reduced, and more medical resources are saved for society.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a cane, in particular to an intelligent cane based on the Internet of Things. Background technique [0002] Since the 1990s, China's aging process has accelerated. my country is the country with the largest elderly population in the world. In 2013, the population aged 60 and over in my country reached 202 million, accounting for 14.9% of the total population, and the population aged 65 and over reached 131 million, accounting for 9.7% of the total population. According to the forecast of PADIS-INT, the aging situation in my country will further intensify in the future. It is estimated that by 2040, the proportion of the elderly population aged 65 and above will exceed 20% of the total population; by 2050, the elderly population in my country will exceed 400 million. The aging level will reach 30%. At the same time, the aging trend of the elderly population is becoming more and more obvious: the elderly aged 80 and above are i...
