DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] The principle of using a probe to detect auricular acupoint signals to identify a positive state is based on the theory of auricular acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine and modern bioelectricity. Auricular acupoints are specific reflex areas on the human ear that correspond to various organs and systems of the body. When an abnormality occurs in a part of the body, the corresponding auricular acupoint will experience a change in potential or resistance. The probe detects the signals from the auricular acupoints, and by measuring these changes, the health of the body can be analyzed. A positive state usually refers to a detected signal indicating that the body has some abnormality or disease state. By analyzing the bioelectric characteristics of auricular acupoints, diagnosis and treatment can be assisted.

[0034] Next, the present invention will propose a device and application scheme for detecting the positive state of ear acupoints based on the principle that the probe detects ear acupoint signals to identify the positive state.
