[0002] As the aging of our society continues to intensify, the proportion of the elderly population is increasing year by year, and more and more elderly people choose to live at home. However, existing elderly monitoring systems generally rely on basic sensors or cameras, and these systems often lack an in-depth understanding of the elderly's daily living habits and activity patterns. Therefore, they are prone to false alarms or missed alarms during the monitoring process and cannot effectively identify emergency situations that the elderly may encounter. In addition, these systems have certain limitations in the alarm mechanism. For example, the fixed alarm duration threshold cannot adapt to the different activity patterns of the elderly, resulting in poor monitoring effects.

[0050] Embodiment 1

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, a danger alarm method for elderly monitoring is applied to a target device, and the target device is used to monitor a target user, including steps S101 to S104:

[0052] Step S101: Determine whether the current moment is in the high-frequency activity time period of the target user.

[0053] Among them, the high-frequency activity time period refers to the time period during which the target user is more active in a day, which can be determined based on the target user's daily activity habits and historical activity data.

[0054] Specifically, historical activity data of target users are collected, including activity time, activity type, etc., and the historical activity data is analyzed to count the peak activity period of target users. The current time is compared with the peak activity period of target users to determine whether it is in a high-frequency activity time period.

[0055] The purpose of step S101 is to identify the peak activity period of the target user, so as to set the sensitivity of the alarm system more reasonably and avoid false alarms when the user is in normal activities.

[0056] Step S102: If the current moment is in a high-frequency activity time period, the preset associated device usage and device non-touch time are obtained, where the device non-touch time is the accumulated time that the target device is not touched.

[0057] Among them, associated devices refer to devices that are closely related to the target user's activities, such as mobile phones, bracelets, smart necklaces, tablets, and smart home devices. The device non-touch time is an indicator used to measure whether the device is used normally over a period of time.

[0058] Specifically, the device's usage status is monitored through the device's sensors or application programming interfaces (APIs), and the device's usage time and non-use time are recorded. The accumulated time from the last time the device was touched to the current moment is the device's non-touch time. A threshold for non-touch time is set based on the device type and user habits. Exceeding this threshold may indicate that the device is not being used normally or that the user may be abnormal.

[0059] For example, suppose the associated device is currently a smartphone that is used to monitor the daily activities of an elderly person living alone. The elderly person usually uses the phone to read the news and talk to family members in the morning, and the smartphone detects through its built-in sensors and applications that the elderly person frequently touches the phone between 7 and 8 every morning. If the elderly person touches the phone at 7:10 and does not touch the phone again until 7:40, the system starts calculating the no-touch time from 7:10, and by 7:40, the no-touch time has accumulated to 30 minutes. Based on the elderly person's daily habits, the system presets a no-touch time threshold of 20 minutes. This means that if the phone has not been touched for more than 20 minutes between 7 and 8 in the morning, the system will consider that there may be an abnormality.

[0060] The purpose of step S102 is to understand the user's behavior pattern during high-frequency activity time periods by analyzing the device non-touch time, thereby monitoring whether the user is acting according to normal habits.

[0061] Step S103: According to the usage of the associated device, the current alarm duration threshold is adjusted accordingly.

[0062] The alarm duration threshold refers to the maximum time limit allowed for the device to be untouched before the system determines whether to trigger an alarm. This threshold can be set based on the user's activity habits and the normal usage mode of the device.

[0063] Specifically, collect and analyze the usage data of associated devices, including usage frequency, usage duration, and non-touch duration. Dynamically adjust the alarm duration threshold based on the usage of the device. For example, if the device is frequently used over a period of time, the threshold can be appropriately increased to reduce false alarms; conversely, if the device is used less frequently, the threshold can be lowered to detect anomalies more sensitively. When adjusting the threshold, the personalized habits of the target users also need to be considered. For example, some users may be accustomed to not touching the device for a long time, in which case the threshold should be relaxed accordingly.

[0064] An example is as follows: If the elderly usually use their mobile phone to check the news and weather forecast between 7 and 8 in the morning, the historical data shows that the elderly usually do not touch their mobile phone for more than 15 minutes during this time period. If the current time is 7:30 in the morning, and the system detects that the elderly have frequently used their mobile phone in the past 30 minutes, the system can infer that the elderly are in their normal activity mode. In this case, the system may set the alarm duration threshold to 30 minutes, so that even if the user does not touch the phone between 7:45 and 8:15, the system will not trigger an alarm. Assuming that the user has the habit of taking a nap and usually does not use the phone between 1 and 3 pm, then the alarm duration threshold is adjusted to 60 minutes or longer during the time period from 1 to 3 pm to avoid false alarms during the user's nap.

[0065] The purpose of step S103 is to reduce false alarms and missed alarms by dynamically adjusting the alarm duration threshold, thereby improving the overall accuracy of the alarm system. Reasonable setting of the alarm duration threshold can avoid waste of system resources and ensure timely response when needed.

[0066] Step S104: If the device is not touched for a certain period of time, an alarm prompt message is sent.

[0067] Among them, the alarm prompt information refers to the notification automatically issued by the system when the system detects that the device has not been touched for longer than the preset alarm duration threshold. The notification may include text messages, sound alarms, application push notifications, etc.

[0068] Specifically, the system continuously monitors the duration of the device being untouched, and once it reaches or exceeds the preset alarm duration threshold, the alarm mechanism is immediately triggered. The system generates alarm prompt information based on the preset alarm template, including but not limited to the alarm reason, device ID, user information, alarm time, etc. The system sends the alarm prompt information to the set contacts, such as family, friends, or emergency rescue services, through SMS, phone calls, emails, application push, etc.

[0069] For example: When the mobile phone has not been touched for 30 minutes, the alarm mechanism is triggered. The system generates the following alarm prompt information based on the preset alarm template: "Emergency Notice: The target user's mobile phone has not been touched for more than 30 minutes, and there may be an abnormal situation. Device ID: 123456789, Alarm time: November 8, 2023 07:40." The system immediately sends an alarm prompt information via SMS, phone, email or application push notification. After the guardian receives the alarm prompt information, he can check whether the elderly are out or in the house through the existing indoor surveillance cameras and door sensors.

[0070] The purpose of step S104 is to increase the monitoring of the target user's safety status through timely alarm prompts, especially when the target user is unable to seek help on his own, so as to provide the target user with necessary help.

[0071] Through the above technical solution, a danger alarm method for elderly care can monitor the activity status of the elderly in real time, identify abnormal situations in time, improve the efficiency of care, and ensure that the elderly can get a prompt response when they need help; reduce the false alarm rate, avoid unnecessary disturbances, and improve user experience; personalize the alarm threshold to better suit the living habits of the elderly and enhance the pertinence and accuracy of care.

[0072] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the following steps are also included:

[0073] Step S201: if the associated device is in use, the alarm duration threshold is determined to be a first duration threshold; otherwise, the alarm duration threshold is determined to be a second duration threshold, and the second duration threshold is greater than the first duration threshold.

[0074] Among them, the first time threshold refers to a shorter no-touch time threshold set when the device is in use, which is used to quickly respond to possible emergencies; the second time threshold refers to a longer no-touch time threshold set when the device is not in use, so as to reduce false alarms.

[0075] Specifically, the system monitors in real time whether the associated device is in use, and automatically selects the first or second duration threshold according to whether the device is in use. For example, if the device is in use, the first duration threshold (such as 15 minutes) is selected, and if the device is not in use, the second duration threshold (such as 30 minutes) is selected. The system dynamically adjusts the alarm duration threshold according to the usage of the device to ensure that the user status can be effectively monitored in different situations.

[0076] Here is an example: Assume that the associated device is a smartwatch, which senses the tiny movements of the wrist through an accelerometer. The smartwatch worn by the elderly Ms. Li continuously monitors her activities. At 10 a.m., Ms. Li is using the smart device in the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Her watch detects the activity and determines that the device is in use. The system sets two different alarm duration thresholds for Ms. Li: the first duration threshold is 15 minutes (device in use) and the second duration threshold is 30 minutes (device not in use). Because Ms. Li is using the kitchen equipment, the system automatically selects the first duration threshold, which is 15 minutes. After 10 minutes, Ms. Li finishes preparing breakfast and stops her activities. The smartwatch detects that the device is not in use. The system immediately adjusts the alarm duration threshold from 15 minutes to 30 minutes to accommodate Ms. Li's current low activity state. Assume that at 10:20 a.m., Ms. Li sits down to rest and does not touch any device. The system starts counting the no-touch duration. If Ms. Li does not touch the watch or other devices in the next 15 minutes (the first duration threshold), the system will not trigger an alarm because the system has adjusted the threshold based on her activity state. If by 10:35, Ms. Li is still inactive and the inactivity time reaches 30 minutes (the second time threshold), the system will trigger the alarm mechanism and send an alarm prompt message to the set emergency contact.

[0077] The purpose of step S201 is that the method reduces false alarms and improves the reliability of the alarm system by distinguishing the use status of the device, thereby optimizing the user experience and reducing unnecessary alarms when the user is using the device normally, thereby avoiding disturbing the user's normal life.

[0078] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, in S201, that is, if the usage status of the associated device is in use, determining the alarm duration threshold as the first duration threshold, the following steps are also included:

[0079] Step S301: determine whether there is an associated device status adjustment instruction;

[0080] Step S302: If there is an instruction to adjust the state of the associated device, reset the device's non-touch time

[0081] The associated device status adjustment instruction refers to an instruction issued by a user or a system administrator to change the monitoring status of the associated device, such as turning monitoring on or off, adjusting monitoring parameters, etc.

[0082] Specifically, the system continuously monitors and receives instructions for adjusting the status of associated devices that may come from users or administrators. The system analyzes the received instructions to determine whether they are status adjustment instructions. Once the status adjustment instruction is confirmed, the system immediately resets the device's touchless time counter and starts counting again. For example, if the elderly have family activities to participate in, such as going to the beach or barbecues with the whole family, the guardian can adjust the status of the associated device and set the device's touchless time to 5 hours or 12 hours, etc., to avoid false alarms due to long periods of non-touch of associated devices during parties.

[0083] The purpose of step S301 to step S302 is that the method allows the user or administrator to dynamically adjust the monitoring status according to actual conditions, thereby increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the system.

[0084] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the following steps are also included:

[0085] Step S401: Obtaining incoming call information of the target device;

[0086] Step S402: judging whether there is a missed call record according to the incoming call information;

[0087] Step S403: If there is a missed call record, determine whether there is a call-back record within the first preset time, and if there is no call-back record, send an alarm prompt message.

[0088] The first preset time refers to the time period from when a missed call occurs to when the system expects the user to call back, for example, 10 minutes.

[0089] Specifically, the system periodically obtains incoming call information from the target device (such as a smartphone), including the time of the call, the caller number, and the answering status. The system analyzes the obtained incoming call information and checks whether there is a record of missed calls. If there is a missed call, the system will check whether there is a callback record for the missed call within the first preset time. If there is no callback record within the first preset time, the system will send an alarm prompt message to indicate that there may be an emergency. It should be noted that the incoming call information is in the high-frequency active time period of the target user. The target user may be resting in the low-frequency time period to avoid disturbing the target user.

[0090] For example, if the smartphone of an elderly woman, Ms. Wang, receives a call from her son. The monitoring system records the call information, including the time of the call (3 p.m.), the caller number (the son's mobile phone number), and the answering status (unanswered). The system sets the first preset time to 30 minutes. Within 30 minutes after the missed call occurs, the system checks whether there is a callback record for the missed call. If there is no callback record within the first preset time, the system determines that this may be an abnormal situation, and immediately sends an alarm prompt message to Ms. Wang's son and other emergency contacts, including: "Emergency Notice: Your mother, Ms. Wang, may not be able to answer your call. Please check her condition as soon as possible. Device ID: 123456, Alarm time: 3:30 p.m. on December 5, 2023."

[0091] The purpose of steps S401 to S403 is that, by monitoring missed calls and callbacks, the system can take quick action when the user may not be able to respond in time.

[0092] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, in S403, that is, if there is a missed call record, it is determined whether there is a call back record within the first preset time, and the following steps are also included:

[0093] Step S501: If there is a missed call record, determine whether the calling user corresponding to the missed call record is a preset guardian;

[0094] Step S502: If the calling user is the preset guardian, determine whether there is a call-back record within a second preset time, and the second preset time is no longer than the first preset time;

[0095] Step S503: If there is no call-back record within the second preset time, an alarm prompt message is sent to the preset guardian, and a positioning prompt message is sent to all preset guardians within the preset range.

[0096] The preset guardian refers to the contact person set by the user in advance who needs to be notified in an emergency, such as a family member, friend or emergency service personnel.

[0097] Specifically, the system allows users to specify which phone numbers are preset guardians during setup so that they can be notified in time in an emergency. After detecting a missed call, the system will check whether the caller is in the preset guardian list. The system sets two preset time windows, the first preset time is the longest callback time, and the second preset time is a shorter callback time, to allow a certain time difference to assess whether an alarm is needed. Send alarm and location prompt: If there is no callback record within the second preset time, the system will send an alarm prompt message to the preset guardian, and include the elderly’s location information, so that the guardian can quickly locate the elderly and take action.

[0098] The purpose of step S501 to step S503 is that by judging whether the calling user is the preset guardian, the system can more accurately judge whether it is necessary to send an alarm prompt message, thereby reducing false alarms and disturbances.

[0099] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0100] Step S601: determining whether the location information of the target device has not moved for a preset time;

[0101] Step S602: If the location information does not move for a preset time, determine whether the location information is within the permanent activity range of the target user;

[0102] Step S603: If the positioning information is not within the permanent activity range, an alarm prompt is triggered.

[0103] Among them, the permanent activity range refers to the main area of ​​daily activities of the target users.

[0104] Specifically, the system continuously obtains the user's real-time location information through the positioning function of the target device (such as a smartphone). The system sets a preset time, such as 30 minutes, to determine whether the user's location information has not moved continuously. The system analyzes the user's location information and determines whether the current location is within the permanent activity range. If the location information has not moved for a preset time and is not within the permanent activity range, the system will trigger an alarm prompt to notify the preset guardian.

[0105] For example: Mr. Zhao’s smartphone uses the built-in GPS positioning function to continuously send real-time location information to the monitoring system. The system sets a preset time of 30 minutes to determine whether Mr. Zhao’s location information has not moved. Mr. Zhao’s permanent activity range includes his home and nearby parks. The system analyzes Mr. Zhao’s location information to determine whether his current location is within his permanent activity range. One day, Mr. Zhao’s location information did not move for 30 minutes starting at 2 pm, and the system determined that his current location was not within his permanent activity range, that is, not at home or in a nearby park. The system determined that this might be an abnormal situation, and immediately sent an alarm prompt message to Mr. Zhao’s son and other emergency contacts, including: "Emergency Notice: Your father, Mr. Zhao, may not be able to move safely. Please check his condition as soon as possible. Device ID: 123456, Alarm time: December 5, 2023, 2:30 pm."

[0106] The purpose of steps S601 to S603 is that by monitoring the positioning information, the system can detect whether the user stays in an abnormal position for a long time. When the user's positioning information has not moved and exceeds the permanent activity range, the system can quickly judge and trigger an alarm, thereby improving the efficiency and response speed of monitoring.

[0107] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, in S602, in addition to determining whether the positioning information is within the permanent activity range of the target user, the following steps are also included:

[0108] Step S701: if the current time is not in the high-frequency activity time period of the target user, determine whether the touch frequency of the target device is abnormal;

[0109] Step S702: if the touch frequency exceeds the preset frequency range, obtaining the location information of the target device;

[0110] Step S703: If the device location information is not within the target user's permanent activity range, a device abnormality prompt message is sent.

[0111] Specifically, the frequency of device touches is monitored through sensors or application programming interfaces (APIs) of associated devices (such as smartphones), and the touch time and frequency of the device are recorded. A threshold for touch frequency is set based on the target user's daily activity habits. Exceeding this threshold may indicate that the device touch frequency is abnormal. If the touch frequency exceeds the preset frequency range, the system obtains the positioning information of the target device for further analysis. The positioning information is analyzed to determine whether the current location of the device is within its permanent activity range. If the device positioning information is not within the permanent activity range, a device abnormality prompt message is sent to notify the preset guardian.

[0112] An example is as follows: The smartphone continuously sends real-time touch frequency information to the monitoring system through built-in sensors and monitoring software. The system sets a touch frequency threshold based on the target user's daily activity habits, such as at least one touch every 15 minutes. If the touch frequency does not reach the preset frequency threshold for 30 minutes starting at 3 pm, the target user's location information is obtained and it is found that he is still at home. The system analyzes the positioning information and determines that Mr. Zhao's current location is still within his permanent activity range. Since the target user's touch frequency is abnormal and the positioning information does not exceed the permanent activity range, the system determines that this may be an abnormal situation and immediately sends an abnormal prompt message to the target user's emergency contact, including: "Abnormal prompt: The target user's touch frequency is abnormal. Please check his condition as soon as possible."

[0113] The purpose of steps S701 to S703 is that the method reduces the possibility of triggering an alarm during normal user activities by determining the touch frequency and positioning information, thereby reducing the false alarm rate.
