Embodiment Construction

[0018] figure 1 An embodiment of a sensor construction according to the invention is presented, presenting a base on which a sensor structure 100 of the construction according to the invention fits. In the case of this embodiment, the base is a bed 110 . The base may also be, for example, a seat, such as a chair, armchair or sofa. In an embodiment according to the invention, the presence of persons on the base and whether the base is wet can be determined by means of the sensor arrangement. Sensor structures for use in the present invention may include sensors that measure moisture or changes in moisture. The sensor structure used in the present invention may also include a configuration by means of which the effect of the presence of a person on the conductivity of the environment surrounding the sensor can be measured. In one embodiment of the invention, the sensor arrangement according to the invention can also comprise a pressure-measuring sensor. Sensors for measuring...

Abstract

Sensor configurations and methods of using sensor configurations to monitor humans. The sensor configuration includes measurement electronics and a sensor structure (100) that can be fitted onto a base. The sensor arrangement (100) comprises at least one sensor and the arrangement is adapted to determine a change in moisture of the base and the presence of a person on the base by means of data measured by the measurement electronics and the sensor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to sensor configurations and methods that may be used in particular to monitor persons on a base. Background technique [0002] Monitoring of the condition of older persons in various settings is indispensable if it is desired to respond to increasing proportions of the aging population. Various devices have been proposed in the art for monitoring patients or other persons in need of care, both in the home setting and in institutional care. For example, over time, a variety of monitoring devices have been used to monitor patients in hospital settings. [0003] Bed sensors form a class of sensors related to the monitoring of the state of a person. For example, a bed sensor is proposed in the art, with which the presence of a person on the bed can be measured by means of a pressure sensor placed on the bed by detecting the person's weight while the person is lying on the bed. [0004] It is also known in the art to use fl...
