Home care system

Abstract

To solve the problem that even if elderly and disabled people with weak legs can go to a bathroom alone in a barrier-free environment, they need their family to accompany them or stay close to them because they are worried that they will have an accident in the bathroom or fall, and often quit their jobs or give up their hobbies.SOLUTION: A bed / reclining chair is set to support four parts of the head, shoulders, buttocks, and feet with a low resilience material and a spring adapted to the shape of each part, adjust the height and position of each part, and apply vibration to each part by the rotation of a deformation cam. The bed / reclining chair is controlled by an avatar of chat GPT according to an instruction of a user by conversation.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This relates to home care system technology that is barrier-free (handrails, wheelchairs, etc.), enables individuals to move to the toilet independently, does not require diaper changing, and places no physical burden on family members, for the elderly or disabled. [Background technology]

[0002] Even if elderly or disabled people with weak legs are able to go to the toilet by themselves in a barrier-free area, their families need to stay with them or be nearby at all times, as there is a concern that they may have an accident or fall. This often leads to them quitting their jobs or giving up their hobbies. For this reason, call buttons have been set up for emergencies, surveillance cameras have been set up, and monitoring systems exist at certain institutions (such as nursing homes), but these systems do not function adequately as staff are not able to respond immediately and the seriousness of the situation is unclear. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2023-79961 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] To provide at-home care for elderly people and people with disabilities who are barrier-free (handrails, wheelchairs, etc.), who can move to the toilet by themselves, who do not require diaper changes, and who have weak legs and are physically unable to do so without putting a physical burden on their families, or for elderly people living alone who have no family and are in a similar situation, so that they can live happily. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The bed / recliner is set up so that the head, shoulders, buttocks, and feet are supported in four places by low-resilience material and springs that match the shape of each part, and the height and position of each supporting part can be adjusted.Furthermore, each supporting part can be vibrated by the rotation of a deformable cam linked to a motor. The bed / recliner is controlled by a chat GPT avatar via spoken commands from the user. Users will be able to converse with Chat GPT's avatar, and also have video calls with many people, including foreigners, whom Chat GPT connects with, after slightly beautifying their own faces, using automatically translated conversations. A facial recognition system will also ensure that only safe people will be allowed in and out of a user's room, enabling various types of care to be provided. Chat GPT will also be able to contact users when problems arise and communicate the user's current situation. Effect of the Invention

[0006] Elderly people living alone who have weak legs will be able to live happily and securely, and families with elderly people who have weak legs or who are disabled will be relieved of the physical burden and will be able to continue to enjoy their work and hobbies. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0007] [Figure 1] This shows the gist of the present invention. [Diagram 2] The main operation of the present invention is shown below. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] The bed / recliner is set up so that the head, shoulders, buttocks, and feet are supported in four places by low-resilience material and springs that match the shape of each part, and the height and position of each supporting part can be adjusted.Furthermore, each supporting part can be vibrated by the rotation of a deformable cam linked to a motor. Incidentally, the arms may be held in conjunction with the shoulders, or the arms may be held individually. The bed / recliner can be precisely adjusted to any angle by the user's chat GPT avatar in response to verbal instructions from the user. Users will be able to converse with Chat GPT's avatar, and also have video calls with many people, including foreigners, whom Chat GPT connects with, after slightly beautifying their own faces, using automatically translated conversations. A facial recognition system will also allow only safe people to enter and leave the user's room, making various types of care possible. Chat GPT will also be able to contact users when problems arise and communicate the user's situation to external agencies.

[0009] As shown in Figure 1, the height, shoulder width, etc. of the person who will be using this system (hereinafter referred to as the person) are obtained in advance, and a bed / recliner chair is set up in which the height, shoulders, buttocks, and feet are supported and held in four places by low-resilience material and springs that match the shape of each part of the person, and the height and horizontal position of each supporting part can be adjusted, and each supporting part can be vibrated by rotating a deformation cam. The bed / recliner chair is controlled by the chat GPT's AI (hereafter referred to as AI) based on the user's spoken instructions. The AI ​​remembers the positions that were previously set when you requested, such as "Let me sleep a little longer" or "Wake me up," and will set the AI ​​to that position, or it will respond to smaller requests such as "Wake me up more" and make adjustments. In addition, the AI ​​can rotate multiple motor-linked transforming cams in sequence or randomly to give micro-vibrations to each part of the person. The AI ​​creates the way to give the micro-vibrations in response to the images displayed on the large TV monitor and the audio output from the ear speakers. The person can enjoy audio through wide dynamic range speakers installed near both ears and video on a large screen TV monitor, and can transmit audio (conversation) to the AI ​​through a microphone built into the large screen TV monitor. The microphone can also be placed near the mouth for people who cannot speak loudly. The person in question can converse with a Chat GPT (AI) avatar (hereafter referred to as the avatar), and can also have video phone conversations with many people, including foreigners, that the avatar connects with, with their face slightly beautified and automatically translated. For example, you can share live camera footage of scenic spots around the world with your avatar or someone connected to you by your avatar, and discuss your thoughts and feelings as if you were actually there (at the location of the live footage). (You can empathize.) It is also possible to set up multiple avatars (either fictional or real friends), including your own (beautified) avatar, so you could, for example, go to ancient times such as the Jomon period (on a TV monitor) and talk, hunt, and play with multiple avatars of the inhabitants of that time (by setting your avatar's clothing and situation). By setting an avatar as your favorite teacher, such as a person you admire, and repeatedly studying various subjects or languages, or by being taught the meanings in depth, you will be able to understand them well. (It is believed that the current study content in textbooks and cram schools will become unnecessary.) As shown in Figure 2, a facial recognition system is installed at the entrance of the building where the bed / recliner chair is installed, and only safe people who have been registered in advance for facial recognition can enter the person's room, making it possible to provide various types of care.For example, even elementary and junior high school students can serve meals and converse with the person, which reduces the physical burden on the person's family and allows them to fully enjoy work and hobbies. Furthermore, if the individual falls or experiences a problem or changes in their physical condition, the AI ​​will check the video information from the camera and the audio information from the microphone and contact the care liaison center, providing detailed information about the individual's situation and condition.This will allow the care liaison center to learn of the individual's situation, including the dispatch of an ambulance, and the hospital or home care and support institution that receives the call will be able to take appropriate action. Until now, when outsiders provide home care, only a very small number of people who have signed a contract are given the keys and enter the rooms of the people receiving care to provide care, but this can lead to problems such as the scheduled person suddenly quitting, being hospitalized due to poor health, or the care facility going bankrupt. However, if many people (helpers) from different agencies register using facial recognition and a system can be built to care for multiple people receiving care, if someone is suddenly unable to make it, the person who is available can take over. (It will be possible to cancel if an appointment suddenly comes up, and conversely, if you register as "available" when no other appointments are made, you will be able to work as a caregiver.) In other words, a person living alone who is being cared for will always be in conversation (through an avatar), and through video information from the camera and audio information from the microphone, any changes in their physical condition, such as groans or facial expressions, can be reported to the outside world.Furthermore, with facial recognition, there is no need to go through procedures such as contract renewals, and the person can easily receive safe home care from someone using facial recognition. [Industrial Applicability]

[0010] Elderly people living alone who have weak legs will be able to live happily and securely, and families with elderly people who have weak legs or who are disabled will be relieved of the physical burden and will be able to continue to enjoy their work and hobbies.
