Detailed implementation manners

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0023] It should be noted that: similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings. Therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings. At the same time, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for differential description and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which is a schematic flowchart of a wheelchair adaptation and usage status evaluation and detection method provided by an embodiment of the present application. This wheelchair adaptation and usage status evaluation and detection method is applied to a wheelchair control system. The wheelchair control system includes a central processing unit, a Bluetooth transmission module, a power management unit, a gyroscope, and a sensor group provided on the seat cushion. The method includes: 100. Obtain various sensing data; wherein, the sensing data includes pressure sensing data, humidity sensing data, and temperature sensing data.

[0025] Specifically, temperature sensing data is obtained through a thermistor, humidity sensing data is obtained through a humidity sensor, pressure sensing data is obtained through a pressure sensor, and the obtained various sensing data is sent to a central processing unit for processing. The processed data is wirelessly transmitted to an external device, such as a smartphone, a tablet computer, or a monitoring system in a care center, via a Bluetooth transmission module. Thus, various data is comprehensively detected to achieve the health monitoring and care management of the user.

[0026] Optionally, preprocess the collected sensing data. Exemplarily, for a temperature sensor, non-linear correction may be required to reflect the real temperature.

[0027] Optionally, monitor the working state of the wheelchair by combining pressure and temperature data.

[0028] 200. Obtain the detected angle data of the gyroscope.

[0029] Optionally, the gyroscope is installed on a strap and fixed at the chest position of the wheelchair user for monitoring the front-back and left-right angles of the user's spine. The forward tilt angle θ (in degrees) of the spine is monitored in real time. If the forward tilt angle θ is positive, it means the body is tilted forward, and if the backward tilt angle θ is negative, it means the body is tilted backward.

[0030] Specifically, the central processing unit collects and processes the data from the pressure sensor, humidity sensor, thermistor, and gyroscope, and analyzes the data through a built-in algorithm to identify abnormal situations.

[0031] 300. Align the timestamps and standardize the sensing data.

[0032] It can be understood that timestamp alignment refers to arranging the data from different sensors or different time points according to a unified time reference to ensure the consistency of the data in time. In a multi-sensor system, due to factors such as the sensor sampling frequency and data transmission delay, the timestamps of the data may be inconsistent. Timestamp alignment is a prerequisite for data fusion and analysis.

[0033] Exemplarily, there are various alignment methods. Interpolation method: For missing time points, the corresponding data values can be estimated through an interpolation algorithm (such as linear interpolation, polynomial interpolation, etc.). Exemplarily, the nearest neighbor method: Select the existing data closest to the missing time point as a substitute. Exemplarily, the time window method: Set a time window and regard the data of all sensors within the window as the data at the same time point.

[0034] It can be understood that standardization processing refers to converting the sensing data into a unified dimension and range for subsequent data analysis and comparison. Standardization helps to eliminate the dimension differences between different sensors and improve the comparability and interpretability of the data.

[0035] Exemplarily, there are multiple standardization methods. Z-score standardization: converts the data into a standard normal distribution with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1, and is applicable to the case where the data distribution is relatively uniform. Min-Max standardization: linearly transforms the data into the range of [0, 1] or [-1, 1], and is applicable to the case where the data range is known and relatively stable. Decimal scaling standardization: converts the data into a value between [-1, 1] by moving the decimal point position of the data, and is applicable to the case where the data distribution is relatively concentrated.

[0036] It should be noted that timestamp alignment and standardization processing are usually carried out simultaneously. First, ensure the temporal consistency of the data through timestamp alignment; then, eliminate the dimensional differences of the data through standardization processing.

[0037] 400. Based on the set detection rules, obtain the analysis result according to the sensing data and the detection angle data, determine whether there is an abnormal situation, and issue a reminder.

[0038] 410. Calculate the centroid coordinates and the maximum pressure position based on the pressure matrix, generate an evaluation index in combination with the gyroscope data, and trigger an abnormal state alarm according to the evaluation index.

[0039] Optionally, the calculating the centroid coordinates and the maximum pressure position based on the pressure matrix, and generating an evaluation index in combination with the gyroscope data includes: Read the pressure data of the sensor matrix; Calculate the total pressure: ; where is the pressure data, representing the pressure value at the i-th row and j-th column, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, 1 ≤ j ≤ m; n represents the number of rows of the sensor matrix, and m represents the number of columns of the sensor matrix; Calculate the centroid coordinates: ; ; where represents the abscissa of each pressure sensor in the seat cushion plane coordinate system; represents the ordinate of each pressure sensor in the seat cushion plane coordinate system; Obtain the maximum value based on the pressure data of all sensor matrices: ; Locate the maximum pressure position: ; Calculate the evaluation index: ; where and is the weight coefficient; represents the relative proportion of the center of gravity shift; is the forward tilt angle of the user detected by the gyroscope.

[0040] Thus, the status data of the wheelchair user can be comprehensively detected, facilitating real-time monitoring of the user's status and taking intervention measures when necessary.

[0041] Exemplarily, the pressure sensor uses 32x32 matrix pressure data to calculate the center of gravity coordinates ( , ) and the maximum pressure position .

[0042] Determine the maximum pressure: find the maximum value among all 32x32 matrix pressure data .

[0043] Locate the maximum pressure position: ; Among them, for the slip risk assessment, if the maximum pressure position is close to the front edge or side edge of the seat cushion, such as the distance from any edge of the seat cushion is less than the set distance threshold, it means that the user's body has leaned towards the edge of the seat cushion, presenting a slip hazard. It can be understood that the specific value of the set distance threshold can be set according to requirements.

[0044] Calculation method of the center point coordinates of the center of gravity: Read the seat cushion pressure data of the 32x32 sensor matrix , where 1 ≤ i ≤ 32, 1 ≤ j ≤ 32, representing the pressure value of the i-th row and the j-th column.

[0045] Calculate the total pressure: ; Calculate the center of gravity coordinates ( , ): Let and represent the horizontal and vertical coordinates of each pressure sensor in the seat cushion plane coordinate system.

[0046] Use the following formula to calculate the center of gravity coordinates: ; .

[0047] Thus, the center point coordinates of the pressure distribution on the seat cushion can be accurately calculated, providing a scientific basis for seat cushion design and user comfort.

[0048] ​Optionally, triggering an abnormal status alarm according to the evaluation index includes: If the distance between the maximum pressure position and any edge of the seat cushion is less than the set distance threshold, it is determined as an abnormal status and an alarm is triggered; if the evaluation index exceeds the set evaluation threshold, it is determined as an abnormal status and an alarm is triggered.

[0049] Thus, it is judged whether there is an abnormal risk according to various data, thereby enhancing the use safety of the user and avoiding the occurrence of risks.

[0050] Exemplarily, if the maximum pressure position is close to the front edge or side edge of the seat cushion, such as the distance from any edge of the seat cushion is less than the set distance threshold, it means that the user's body has deviated towards the edge of the seat cushion and there is a risk of slipping. It can be understood that the specific value of the set distance threshold can be set according to requirements.

[0051] Exemplarily, when the evaluation index exceeds the set evaluation threshold, the system determines it as an abnormal status and triggers an alarm. For example, when > 1.5, it means that the user may be in a risk state of falling forward; when < -1.0, it means that the user may be in a risk state of slipping.

[0052] 420. Transmit the processed data to an external device.

[0053] Specifically, the processed data is wirelessly transmitted to an external device through a Bluetooth transmission module, such as a smart phone, a tablet computer or a monitoring system of a nursing center.

[0054] The embodiments of the present application can be used in the clinical services of wheelchairs and pressure ulcer prevention seat cushions. When a person with a disability selects a wheelchair and a pressure ulcer prevention seat cushion, this system is placed above the wheelchair seat cushion. By observing the pressure value of the pressure sensor, the pressure center of gravity coordinates, the temperature and the gyroscope angle, it assists in the clinical services of wheelchairs and pressure ulcer prevention seat cushions. The pressure magnitude and temperature help to judge the risk of pressure ulcer occurrence in a person with a disability; the pressure value magnitude and the pressure center of gravity coordinates help to judge whether the wheelchair sitting posture of the user is correct. For example, if the pressure value is too large and the pressure center is offset, it means that the wheelchair and the seat cushion are not selected or used correctly; within a unit time, the pressure center offset amount and the envelope area reflect the static stability of the user on the wheelchair and the seat cushion; the trunk change angle displayed by the gyroscope reflects the dynamic stability of the user on the wheelchair and the seat cushion. Through this system, it assists in the selection and matching of wheelchairs and pressure ulcer prevention seat cushions, and assists in adjusting the wheelchair (seat width, seat depth, footrest height, armrest height, side support height and seat surface tilt angle, etc.) and the pressure ulcer prevention seat cushion (inflation volume, thickness, positioning module, etc.), and guides the clinical effect evaluation of wheelchairs and pressure ulcer prevention seat cushions.

[0055] The embodiments of the present application can be used for the daily use monitoring of a pressure ulcer prevention cushion for wheelchair users. It adopts 24-hour Bluetooth transmission for the daily monitoring of the pressure ulcer prevention cushion for wheelchair users. Whether urinary incontinence occurs is monitored through a humidity sensor (when the humidity sensing value exceeds the critical value), whether there is air leakage in the airbag of the pressure ulcer prevention cushion is monitored through a pressure sensor (when the local pressure exceeds the critical value or changes greatly in a short period), and the user is reminded to perform a sitting position decompression operation through pressure sensing (when the maximum pressure area exceeds the critical value and the duration of the maximum pressure area exceeds the critical value for reminder).

[0056] The embodiments of the present application can be used for the daily sitting posture monitoring and alarm of wheelchair users. Getting-up alarm: For disabled elderly people, especially those with dementia, there are risks when getting up by themselves on a wheelchair. When there is a tendency to get up by themselves, an alarm is triggered. (The pressure center of gravity coordinate moves forward + the gyroscope angle tilts forward + the total pressure value increases). Sitting posture forward-sliding alarm: For various wheelchair users, especially the elderly, there is a risk of falling when sliding forward after sitting on the wheelchair for a long time. When there is a tendency of forward sliding, an alarm is triggered. (The pressure center of gravity coordinate moves + the gyroscope angle tilts backward + the total pressure value changes).

[0057] Among them, a sliding time window T = 3 seconds is set, the data update frequency is Δt = 0.5 seconds, and the window contains N = 6 groups of data. It can be understood that setting the time window mechanism ensures data continuity and reduces false alarms.

[0058] Perform time series analysis on the following parameters: The change amount of the pressure center of gravity coordinate ΔY_c(t) = Y_c(t) - Y_0; where Y_0 is the reference position of the cushion center. The change amount of the gyroscope angle Δθ(t) = θ(t) - ; where is the initial sitting posture angle. The proportion of the area pressed by the rear half of the cushion A(t) = the number of sensors pressed in the rear half area / the total number of sensors; where the number of sensors pressed in the rear half area is the number of sensors with a pressure greater than the set pressure in the rear half area; specifically, the rear half area can divide the area of the cushion into two areas, the rear half area is the area close to the backrest, obtain the pressure of all sensors in the rear half area, and screen out the number of sensors with a pressure greater than the set pressure to get the number of sensors pressed in the rear half area. The set pressure can be set according to specific requirements, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0059] For the risk of body sliding down, combine the change trends within the time window of the following parameters: ΔY_c(t) represents the change amount of the pressure center of gravity coordinate. If ΔY_c < 0, the risk of slipping increases.

[0060] Δθ(t) represents the change in the gyroscope angle. If Δθ < 0, the risk of slipping increases.

[0061] A(t) represents the proportion of the area of the rear half of the seat cushion being pressed. If the descent speed of A(t) is greater than the set descent threshold, it indicates that the body moves forward and slides down, increasing the risk.

[0062] The formula for evaluating the slipping risk is: ; Among them, , , are coefficients, reflecting the influence degree of each parameter on the slipping risk; ΔY_c(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 100, Δθ(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 180, and A(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 100; by real-time monitoring value, the system can give an early warning in time to ensure the safety of patients.

[0063] When (such as -1.2), the slipping alarm is triggered; is the set threshold.

[0064] Regarding the fall risk caused by getting up, the parameter trend is opposite: ΔY_c(t) is the change in the pressure center of gravity coordinate. If ΔY_c > 0, the risk of getting up increases.

[0065] Δθ(t) represents the change in the gyroscope angle. If Δθ > 0, the risk increases.

[0066] A(t) represents the proportion of the area of the rear half of the seat cushion being pressed. If the descent speed of A(t) is greater than the set descent threshold, it indicates that the buttocks leave the seat cushion.

[0067] The formula for evaluating the getting-up risk is: ; Among them, , , are coefficients, reflecting the influence degree of each parameter on the slipping risk. ΔY_c(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 100, Δθ(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 180, and A(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 100.

[0068] When (such as 1.5), the getting-up alarm is triggered; is the set threshold.

[0069] Optionally, ΔY_c(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 100, with the unit of mm; Δθ(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 180, with the unit of degree; A(t) is a parameter in the range of 0 - 100, with the unit of %.

[0071] The above steps are not strictly executed in the order described by the numbers, and should be understood as an overall solution.
