Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of monitoring systems, and in particular to an activity monitoring system for elderly users. Background Art
[0002] As people's living standards improve, health becomes a new lifestyle that people pursue. As an important physiological parameter of the human body, blood oxygen saturation has been widely used in clinical practice. An oximeter is an instrument that detects blood oxygen saturation and pulse rate in human blood. The oximeter uses the part to be tested (such as a finger) as a transparent container for hemoglobin. When measuring blood oxygen, the difference between the absorption of red light (660nm) and infrared light (910nm) by reduced hemoglobin and oxygenated hemoglobin is detected to determine the blood oxygen saturation.
[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN105223801A discloses a watch suitable for health monitoring and satellite positioning of the elderly. The appearance of the watch is similar to that of an ordinary watch. It is provided with a dial and can be used to view time. In the dial of the watch, an ultra-micro and ultra-thin somatosensory detection system is provided, including: a detector, a data analyzer, and an alarm. There is also an ultra-thin GPS positioning system and a transmitter. The normal range of various physical health indicators of the elderly is pre-set in the health monitoring and satellite positioning watch for the elderly. Through the built-in somatosensory detection system, the changes in the heart rate, body temperature, and blood pressure of the elderly are fully monitored. Once an indicator exceeds the normal range, the problem is immediately displayed and an alarm is issued. The data on the health status is transmitted to the hospital and the elderly's children, and the hospital arrives in time through GPS positioning. The present invention can accurately and quickly monitor the health status of the elderly in real time, ensuring the health of the elderly.
[0004] The monitoring system of the above patent is used to monitor the heart rate, body temperature and blood pressure data of the elderly.

It cannot obtain the situation of the elderly falling, and cannot realize the networking of the monitoring system.
