BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0037] Figure 1The figure is a logic block diagram of a first embodiment of a smart belt. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0038] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:
[0039] Embodiment 1
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, a smart belt of this embodiment includes a belt body, on which at least one storage bag is arranged. In this embodiment, there are three storage bags, namely, a medicine storage bag, a key storage bag and a mobile terminal storage bag.
[0041] It also includes an object detection module, a wireless communication module, a processing module, an alarm module, a motion monitoring module, a positioning module, a temperature monitoring module, and an interaction module. In this embodiment, the above modules are powered by a lithium battery.
[0042] The item detection module is used to detect whether there are items placed in the storage bag and generate item placement information; in this embodiment, the item detection module includes an ultrasonic sensor fixed at the bottom of the medicine storage bag and the key storage bag; the ultrasonic sensor emits and receives ultrasonic waves to measure the distance from the object to the sensor, thereby determining whether the object exists.
[0043] The wireless communication module is used to connect to a preset communication node and generate connection status information; in this embodiment, the wireless communication module includes a WiFi unit and a 4G communication unit. In other embodiments, a 5G communication unit may also be used. The WiFi unit connects to a preset communication node. The preset communication node refers to the WiFi network at the user's home.
[0044] The processing module is used to obtain connection information and item placement information, and determine whether the connection is interrupted according to the connection information. If the WiFi connection is interrupted, determine whether there are items placed in the storage bag according to the item placement information. If any of the medicine storage bag and the key storage bag is not placed, generate a forgotten item reminder instruction;
[0045] The alarm module is used to generate a reminder message of forgotten items according to the alarm instruction. In this embodiment, the alarm module includes an LED light and a speaker, both of which are fixed on the belt body. For example, the reminder message of the speaker is: please bring medicines and keys, and the LED light flashes at the same time.
[0046] For example, an elderly person forgets to put medicine into the storage bag of the belt when preparing to go out. When the elderly person leaves the preset communication node range at home (such as the Wi-Fi network at home), the wireless communication module of the smart belt detects that the connection is interrupted. The processing module receives this information and checks the item placement information of the item detection module, and finds that there is no medicine in the storage bag. The processing module then generates a reminder instruction for forgotten items, and the alarm module issues a reminder sound to prompt the elderly person to check and bring the medicine.
[0047] The motion monitoring module is used to collect motion data; the processing module is used to determine whether the user is currently falling based on the motion data, and if so, generate a fall alarm instruction; the wireless communication module is also used to send a fall alarm message to a preset recipient according to the fall alarm instruction. Specifically, the fall alarm message is sent to the mobile phone of the user's relatives through the 4G communication unit. In this embodiment, the motion detection module includes a speedometer and a gyroscope, which collect motion data from the speedometer and the gyroscope, and the processing module analyzes the motion data through a preset fall detection algorithm to determine whether the user is currently falling.
[0048] The positioning module is used to collect the current location information, and the processing module is also used to determine whether to leave the preset area based on the location information. If left, a cross-region alarm instruction is generated; the positioning module specifically uses the Beidou positioning module. The wireless communication module is also used to send cross-region alarm information to the preset recipient according to the cross-region alarm instruction.
[0049] The temperature monitoring module is used to collect the user's temperature data; the processing module is used to determine whether the temperature exceeds the preset temperature range based on the temperature data, and if it exceeds the preset temperature range, generate a temperature reminder instruction; the alarm module is used to generate a temperature reminder message based on the temperature reminder instruction. In this embodiment, the temperature detection module uses a temperature sensor, which is arranged on the side of the belt body close to the human body.
[0050] The interactive module is used to receive the user's input signal, and the processing module is also used to generate a one-key call for help instruction according to the input information; the wireless communication module is also used to send a distress alarm message to a preset recipient according to the one-key call for help instruction; the alarm module is also used to generate a distress message according to the one-key call for help instruction. In this embodiment, the interactive module uses a button switch, which can be pressed to realize a one-key call for help.
[0051] The mobile terminal storage bag is fixed with an NFC tag with pairing information; the wireless communication module is also used to receive the pairing information of the mobile terminal, and after verification, it completes pairing with the mobile terminal and establishes a communication connection. When the mobile terminal is placed in the mobile terminal receiving bag, the built-in NFC module can read the pairing information in the NFC tag, and then establish a communication connection with the WiFi unit through the pairing information.
[0052] The wireless communication module is also used to receive the setting information of the mobile terminal; the processing module is also used to adjust the corresponding configuration according to the setting information. The setting information includes: defining the judgment condition of whether the object exists (for example, setting a reminder when either the medicine storage bag or the key storage bag is not placed, or setting a reminder when neither the medicine storage bag or the key storage bag is placed, etc.), a preset temperature range, a preset communication node (for example, the selection of WiFi), a preset recipient (for example, a mobile phone number), etc.
[0053] For example, an elderly person goes out for a walk in the park. He suffers from high blood pressure and needs to carry antihypertensive drugs with him, but in a hurry he forgets to put the drugs into the drug storage bag of the smart belt. Since the smart belt is equipped with a WiFi module, when the elderly person walks out of the house and exceeds the range of the home WiFi network, the wireless communication module detects that the WiFi connection is interrupted and immediately passes this information to the processing module. After receiving the signal of the connection interruption, the processing module automatically enables the object detection function. Through the ultrasonic sensor, the object detection module checks the drug storage bag and finds that there are no drugs in it. Based on this result, the processing module generates a forgotten item reminder instruction, and then the alarm module issues a reminder. The LED light on the belt starts to flash, and the speaker issues a voice prompt: "Please bring the medicine." After hearing the reminder, the elderly will realize that they forgot to bring the medicine, avoiding possible health risks.
[0054] During the walk in the park, the smart belt also continuously collects the elderly's motion data through the motion monitoring module. Since the belt has a built-in speedometer and gyroscope, these sensors can monitor the elderly's body posture and movements in real time. When the elderly accidentally fall, the motion monitoring module detects the abnormal motion data and analyzes the possibility of the elderly falling through the preset fall detection algorithm. The processing module then generates a fall alarm instruction and sends the alarm information to the elderly's relatives' mobile phones through the wireless communication module, notifying them of the elderly's specific location and the fall event. So that relatives can provide timely help after receiving the information.
[0055] During the walk, the smart belt also collects the elderly's body temperature data in real time through the built-in temperature monitoring module. When the elderly walk for a while and their body temperature rises to a level above the preset safety range, the temperature monitoring module issues an alarm and the processing module generates a temperature reminder instruction. The speaker sounds a reminder again, reminding the elderly "The body temperature is too high, please rest or drink water to cool down." This reminds the elderly to rest and avoid health problems caused by heat stroke or overheating.
[0056] When the elderly finish their walk and are ready to go home, the positioning module of the belt is always running in the background, collecting the elderly's location information and comparing it with the preset safe area. If the elderly accidentally walk out of the preset activity area, such as walking into an unfamiliar neighborhood, the positioning module will issue a cross-area alarm message to notify relatives that the elderly has left the safe area. This function greatly reduces the risk of the elderly getting lost or lost, and is especially suitable for those elderly people with memory loss.
[0057] The smart belt also has a one-button call for help function. If the elderly encounter an emergency, such as sudden physical discomfort, they only need to press the call for help button on the belt, and the belt's interactive module will immediately generate a call for help instruction, and send the call for help information to relatives or emergency personnel through the wireless communication module. At the same time, the speaker will also emit a call for help to attract the attention of people around and help the elderly get rescued quickly.
[0058] Compared with the prior art, the smart belt of this embodiment has the following advantages:
[0059] The item detection module can detect whether there are items in the medicine storage bag and key storage bag, and remind the elderly when they leave home (WiFi connection is interrupted) to prevent them from forgetting to bring medicine or keys. It can also determine whether the user has fallen, and notify family members or caregivers in time when they fall, provide quick help, and improve the safety of the elderly; it can also determine whether the user has left the preset area. Once it is detected that the user has crossed the preset area, a cross-area alarm message will be generated and sent to the preset recipient to prevent the elderly from getting lost or lost, and ensure the safety of the user.
[0060] The temperature monitoring module can collect the user's body temperature data in real time. When the body temperature exceeds the preset range, a temperature reminder message is generated to prompt the user to pay attention to his or her physical condition and take timely measures to ensure health.
[0061] It also provides a one-touch call for help function. When the user encounters an emergency, he only needs to press the one-touch call for help button to send a distress alarm message to the preset recipient through the wireless communication module. At the same time, the speaker on the belt body will issue a call for help, quickly responding to emergencies and improving the self-rescue ability of the elderly.
[0062] Through the pairing information of the NFC tag and the mobile terminal, the smart belt and the mobile terminal can be quickly connected, making it convenient for users to set and adjust the configuration parameters of the smart belt through the mobile terminal, simplifying the operation process and improving ease of use.
[0063] In summary, the solution of this embodiment can meet the special needs of the elderly for smart wearable devices through the collaborative work of multiple modules, and improve the quality of life and safety of the elderly.
