Using impedance in parts of living body for generating controlling signal for controllable device

Abstract

In such a method and system, firstly, at least an electrically conducting first connection to a first body area (3a) of the whole body of a living being is established and at least an electrically conducting second connection to a second body area (3b) of the whole body of the living being at a distance from the first body area (3a) and, secondly, a change takes place in the physical relation between at least one body part (1, 2) of the whole body and the whole body, which change in the physical relation causes a change to occur in the impedance value of a bioelectrical impedance, which bioelectrical impedance is present between the first body area (3a) and the second body area (3b) and, thirdly, a detection takes place of the change in the impedance value of said bioelectrical impedance, as a result of which occurrence of the change result information RI is obtained and, fourthly, the control signal (CTRS) is generated in dependence on the result information (RI).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for generating at least one control signal for controlling a controllable device, in which method at least an electrically conductive first connection is established with a first body region of the entire body of a living body and with the entire A second body region at a distance from the first body region on the body establishes at least an electrically conductive second connection. [0002] The invention furthermore relates to a system for generating at least one control signal for controlling a controllable device, having at least an electrically conductive first contact for establishing at least an electrically conductive first connection to a first body region of the entire body of a living being and having at least a conductive second contact for establishing at least a conductive second connection with a second body region at a distance from the first body region on the entire body of the living subject.

Problems solved by technology

[0006] Such disadvantages are observed in this known method and in this known system: as pointed out earlier, appropriate mental training is required to implement this known method, in which only a limited number of users are able to achieve a truly assessable Differences or deliberate changes in skin resistance are used so that such changes in current resistance can be intentionally brought about by the user of an electronic device to control the device

Moreover, there is also a disadvantage that the skin resistance of the user of the personal or electronic device will have a large normal fluctuation, so that it is impossible to directly use the known method and the known system, and it is necessary to use the known method in advance according to the situation. method for users to match or trim

Another disadvantage of the known method is that it is difficult to use a uniform method parameter to control the device in the known method, considering that there are relatively large differences in the absolute value of the user's skin resistance.
