[0070] Specific examples

[0071] At 11 PM, the user launches a smartphone app and sets it to sleep mode. The device collects movement data and sounds throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 AM the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the total sleep time to be 7 hours, the deep sleep time to be 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the snoring frequency to be 10 times. As a result, the server generates recommendations to the user, such as "stretching before going to bed at night" and "using a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." The user follows the advice provided to improve their lifestyle habits and gradually achieve their goals.

[0072] This allows users to get better quality sleep and improve their overall health and well-being. The present invention provides a system for achieving such multifaceted health management based on the claims.

[0073] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0074] Step 1:

[0075] The user opens an app on their smartphone and sets Bedtime mode, then checks the permissions the app needs to use to function properly (such as using the microphone or accelerometer).

[0076] Step 2:

[0077] The device checks the user's Bedtime setting and activates the accelerometer and microphone, preparing to record the user's movements and sounds in real time.

[0078] Step 3:

[0079] The device continuously collects user movement data and environmental sounds while the user sleeps. The accelerometer records the user's movements and movements, and the microphone records snoring and environmental sounds. This data is stored in a buffer at regular intervals (e.g., every second).

[0080] Step 4:

[0081] When the user wakes up the next morning and opens their smartphone, the app will self-check the collected data and prepare it to be sent to the server. The user can then tap the "Send Data" button to send the collected data to the server.

[0082] Step 5:

[0085] The server runs a data analysis algorithm to analyze the collected sleep data, specifically calculating the following metrics:

[0086] Total sleep time

[0087] Deep sleep time

[0088] Light sleep duration

[0089] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[0090] Step 7:

[0091] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[0092] Step 8:

[0093] The server uses the generated report to generate specific recommendations and action plans for the user, which, depending on the analysis results, may include advice such as:

[0094] Relaxation techniques to do before bed

[0095] Adjusting the bedroom environment (temperature, humidity, sound)

[0096] Daytime activities (exercise, caffeine intake, etc.)

[0097] Step 9:

[0098] The server receives the user's goal settings and generates a customized action plan based on them. For example, if the goal is "30 minutes of exercise every day," the server will suggest the type of exercise and timing.

[0099] Step 10:

[0100] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user. The app notifies the user that a new report is available.

[0101] Step 11:

[0102] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan.

[0103] Step 12:

[0104] The device manages the user's daily schedule and sets reminders to help them use their time efficiently. For example, if the user sets a goal of "going to bed at 10 p.m.", the device will display a notification such as "take some time to relax at 9:30 p.m."

[0105] Through these processing steps, users receive specific advice and action plans to improve their sleep quality and build healthy lifestyle habits.

[0316] Program processing

[0317] Collection and transmission of sleep and emotional data

[0318] User: The smartphone app is started at night, sleep mode is set, facial expression analysis function is enabled, and the emotion engine is running.

[0319] Device: The acceleration sensor and microphone are activated to continuously collect data while the user is sleeping. The camera analyzes the user's facial expressions and collects emotional data.

[0320] Receiving and analyzing data

[0321] On the device: The next morning, when the user wakes up and reopens the app, the collected data is sent to the server.

[0322] Server: Receives the collected data and first verifies the data integrity. Then, it analyzes the data using algorithms to calculate metrics such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, light sleep time, and snoring frequency. In addition, it analyzes the user's emotional data using an emotion engine.

[0323] Generate recommendations and action plans

[0324] Server: Based on the analysis results, it generates different recommendations for each user. For example, if a user snores a lot, it recommends using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity in the bedroom. Based on emotional data, if the user is under a lot of stress, it suggests meditating to relax before going to bed at night.

[0325] Server: Generates a detailed action plan based on the goals set by the user. For example, if the goal is to exercise 30 minutes a day, the server will suggest specific exercise content and timing.

[0326] User notification and assistance

[0327] Device: Displays the recommendations and action plans received from the server to the user. It also suggests optimal time management based on the user's daily schedule and sets reminders.

[0328] User: Opens the app, reviews the recommendations and action plans provided, and acts on them.

[0329] Specific examples

[0330] The user enables the emotion engine and sets the bedtime mode at 10 p.m. The device collects motion, sound, and emotion data throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 a.m. the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the data and determines that the total sleep time is 7 hours, the deep sleep time is 2 hours and 30 minutes, the snoring frequency is 10 times, and the stress level is high. As a result, the server generates and notifies the user of the recommendation to "meditate before bed and use a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." The user follows the suggested advice, improving their sleep quality and promoting their overall health.

[0331] This allows users to combine emotional data to receive more accurate advice and action plans to build healthy lifestyle habits.The present invention provides a comprehensive system for supporting users' sleep and emotional management based on the claims.

[0332] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0333] Step 1:

[0334] A user opens a smartphone app, sets the sleep mode, enables the facial expression analysis function, and runs the emotion engine. At this time, the app checks for necessary permissions (such as access to the microphone, accelerometer, and camera).

[0335] Step 2:

[0336] The device checks the user's Bedtime setting and activates the accelerometer, microphone, and camera, ready to record the user's movements, sounds, and facial expressions in real time.

[0337] Step 3:

[0338] The device continuously collects motion and sound data from the user while they sleep. The acceleration sensor records the user's movements and movements, and the microphone records snoring and environmental sounds. The camera also records the user's facial expressions, which the emotion engine analyzes to generate emotion data.

[0339] Step 4:

[0340] The data collected by the terminal is stored in a buffer at regular intervals (for example, every second), which ensures data consistency and integrity.

[0341] Step 5:

[0342] When the user wakes up the next morning and opens their smartphone, the app prepares to send the data collected during the night to the server. The user taps the "Send Data" button to send the collected data to the server.

[0343] Step 6:

[0344] The server receives the data sent by the user and checks the data for completeness and consistency. If there are any missing or inconsistent data, it notifies the user and asks them to resubmit.

[0345] Step 7:

[0346] The server runs a data analysis algorithm and emotion engine to analyze the collected sleep and emotion data, and calculates the following metrics:

[0347] Total sleep time

[0348] Deep sleep time

[0349] Light sleep duration

[0350] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[0351] Emotional fluctuation patterns

[0352] Step 8:

[0353] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[0354] Step 9:

[0355] Based on the generated report, the server generates specific recommendations and action plans suited to the user. For example, if the user snores a lot, it may suggest using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity, or if the user is under high stress based on emotional data, it may advise them to practice meditation to relax before going to bed at night.

[0356] Step 10:

[0357] The server receives the user's goal setting and generates a customized action plan accordingly. For example, if the goal is set to "exercise 30 minutes every day," the server will suggest the type and timing of exercise.

[0358] Step 11:

[0359] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user, and also sets reminders based on daily schedules to help users use their time efficiently.

[0360] Step 12:

[0361] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan and incorporate it into their daily activities.

[0362] Step 13:

[0363] The device periodically records the user's daily progress and emotional data and sends it to the server, which can then use the latest data to provide further recommendations and refine the action plan.

[0364] In this way, the system of the present invention collects and analyzes the user's sleep and emotional data, and provides personalized advice and action plans to improve the user's sleep quality and overall health. By implementing specific processing steps, the user can effectively manage their health.

[0591] Light sleep duration

[0592] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[0593] Step 7:

[0594] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[0595] Step 8:

[0596] The server uses the generated report to generate specific recommendations and action plans for the user, which, depending on the analysis results, may include advice such as:

[0597] Relaxation techniques to do before bed

[0598] Adjusting the bedroom environment (temperature, humidity, sound)

[0599] Daytime activities (exercise, caffeine intake, etc.)

[0600] Step 9:

[0601] The server receives the user's goal settings and generates a customized action plan based on them. For example, if the goal is "30 minutes of exercise every day," the server will suggest the type of exercise and timing.

[0602] Step 10:

[0603] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user. The app notifies the user that a new report is available.

[0604] Step 11:

[0605] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan.

[0606] Step 12:

[0607] The device manages the user's daily schedule and sets reminders to help them use their time efficiently. For example, if the user sets a goal of "going to bed at 10 p.m.", the device will display a notification such as "take some time to relax at 9:30 p.m."

[0738] Program processing

[0739] Data collection and transmission

[0740] The user launches the app on their device at night and activates sleep mode. This allows the device to collect sleep data using the accelerometer and microphone, and store it in a buffer. When the user reopens the app the next morning, the collected data is sent to the server.

[0741] Receiving and analyzing data

[0742] The server receives the collected data, first verifies its integrity, and then analyzes it using specific algorithms to calculate metrics such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, and snoring frequency.

[0743] Generate recommendations and meal plans

[0744] The server generates personalized recommendations based on the analysis results, and also suggests nutritionally balanced meal plans based on the user's health status, for example, suggesting a high-protein breakfast to a sleep-deprived user.

[0745] Fulfilling delivery orders

[0746] The application automatically places food and meal delivery orders based on the generated meal plan, allowing the user to receive the food and meals according to the proposed meal plan.

[0747] Examples of concrete examples and prompts

[0748] As a specific example, a user launches an app on their device at 11 PM and sets it to sleep mode. The device collects movement data and sounds throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 AM the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the total sleep time to be 7 hours, the deep sleep time to be 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the snoring frequency to be 10 times. As a result, it generates recommendations to the user, such as "stretching before going to bed at night" and "using a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." In addition, based on the user's health condition, it recommends a "high-protein breakfast," and appropriate food is delivered.

[0749] Example prompt sentence:

[0750] The user's sleep data for the past 7 days is as follows: Total sleep time: 6 hours on average, Deep sleep time: 2 hours on average, Snoring frequency: 15 times on average. Based on this, provide appropriate diet and lifestyle recommendations to maintain good health.

[0751] This not only allows users to get quality sleep, but also allows them to eat a nutritionally balanced diet that is appropriate for their health condition.

[0752] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0753] Step 1:

[0754] Bedtime mode settings

[0755] At night, the user launches the app on their device and sets it to sleep mode, which prepares the device to start collecting motion data and sounds.

[0756] Input: User launches app and sets Bedtime mode

[0757] Output: The device switches to data collection mode

[0758] Step 2:

[0761] Input: User motion data and sound

[0762] Output: Buffered sleep data (motion data and sound)

[0763] Step 3:

[0764] Sending data

[0765] The next morning, when the user reopens the app, the saved sleep data is sent to the server.

[0766] Input: Buffered sleep data

[0767] Output: Sleep data sent to the server

[0768] Step 4:

[0769] Data Receipt and Validation

[0770] The server checks the integrity of the received data, verifying that there are no missing data or outliers.

[0771] Input: Sleep data sent to the server

[0772] Output: Verified sleep data

[0773] Step 5:

[0774] Data analysis

[0775] The server analyzes the verified data using a specific algorithm, calculating indicators such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, and snoring frequency to evaluate the user's sleep quality.

[0776] Input: Verified sleep data

[0777] Output: Analysis results (total sleep time, deep sleep time, snoring frequency, etc.)

[0778] Step 6:

[0779] Generating recommendations

[0780] Based on the analysis results, the server generates personalized recommendations and action plans, such as "avoid caffeine late at night" or "adjust the humidity in your bedroom."

[0781] Input: Analysis results

[0782] Output: personalized recommendations and action plans

[0783] Step 7:

[0784] Generate a meal plan

[0785] Based on the analysis results, the server proposes a suitable meal plan for the user, for example, recommending a high-protein breakfast for a sleep-deprived user.

[0786] Input: Analysis results

[0787] Output: Suitable meal plan

[0788] Step 8:

[0789] View recommendations and meal plans

[0790] The terminal displays the recommendations and meal plans received from the server to the user.

[0791] Input: Recommendations and Meal Plans

[0792] Output: Recommendations and meal plans displayed on the device screen

[0793] Step 9:

[0794] Fulfilling delivery orders

[0795] Once the user agrees to the meal plan, the device automatically sends a delivery order to the server, and the food or meal is delivered to the user.

[0796] Input: User consent

[0797] Output: Sending delivery orders and delivering food and dishes

[0798] Through these steps, users can ensure they get good quality sleep and eat a diet that is optimal for their health.

[0799] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[0800] The present invention provides a system for ensuring a user's quality sleep and improving their overall health and well-being. The system collects and analyzes sleep and emotional data from the user, and provides personalized advice and action plans based on the collected data. Specific embodiments are described in detail below.

[0801] System configuration

[0802] This system consists of the following elements:

[0817] Recommendation display: Displaying advice and action plans from the server to the user.

[0818] Goal setting: Users can set goals for health, stress management, exercise, etc. and send them to the server.

[0819] Program processing

[0820] Collection and transmission of sleep and emotional data

[0821] User: The smartphone app is started at night, sleep mode is set, facial expression analysis function is enabled, and the emotion engine is running.

[0822] Device: The acceleration sensor and microphone are activated to continuously collect data while the user is sleeping. The camera analyzes the user's facial expressions and collects emotional data.

[0823] Receiving and analyzing data

[0824] On the device: The next morning, when the user wakes up and reopens the app, the collected data is sent to the server.

[0825] Server: Receives the collected data and first verifies the data integrity. Then, it analyzes the data using algorithms to calculate metrics such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, light sleep time, and snoring frequency. In addition, it analyzes the user's emotional data using an emotion engine.

[0826] Generate recommendations and action plans

[0827] Server: Based on the analysis results, it generates different recommendations for each user. For example, if a user snores a lot, it recommends using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity in the bedroom. Based on emotional data, if the user is under a lot of stress, it suggests meditating to relax before going to bed at night.

[0828] Server: Generates a detailed action plan based on the goals set by the user. For example, if the goal is to exercise 30 minutes a day, the server will suggest specific exercise content and timing.

[0829] User notification and assistance

[0830] Device: Displays the recommendations and action plans received from the server to the user. It also suggests optimal time management based on the user's daily schedule and sets reminders.

[0831] User: Opens the app, reviews the recommendations and action plans provided, and acts on them.

[0832] Specific examples

[0833] The user enables the emotion engine and sets the bedtime mode at 10 p.m. The device collects motion, sound, and emotion data throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 a.m. the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the data and determines that the total sleep time is 7 hours, the deep sleep time is 2 hours and 30 minutes, the snoring frequency is 10 times, and the stress level is high. As a result, the server generates and notifies the user of the recommendation to "meditate before bed and use a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." The user follows the suggested advice, improving their sleep quality and promoting their overall health.

[0834] This allows users to combine emotional data to receive more accurate advice and action plans to build healthy lifestyle habits.The present invention provides a comprehensive system for supporting users' sleep and emotional management based on the claims.

[0835] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0836] Step 1:

[0837] A user opens a smartphone app, sets the sleep mode, enables the facial expression analysis function, and runs the emotion engine. At this time, the app checks for necessary permissions (such as access to the microphone, accelerometer, and camera).

[0838] Step 2:

[0839] The device checks the user's Bedtime setting and activates the accelerometer, microphone, and camera, ready to record the user's movements, sounds, and facial expressions in real time.

[0840] Step 3:

[0841] The device continuously collects motion and sound data from the user while they sleep. The acceleration sensor records the user's movements and movements, and the microphone records snoring and environmental sounds. The camera also records the user's facial expressions, which the emotion engine analyzes to generate emotion data.

[0842] Step 4:

[0843] The data collected by the terminal is stored in a buffer at regular intervals (for example, every second), which ensures data consistency and integrity.

[0844] Step 5:

[0845] When the user wakes up the next morning and opens their smartphone, the app prepares to send the data collected during the night to the server. The user taps the "Send Data" button to send the collected data to the server.

[0846] Step 6:

[0847] The server receives the data sent by the user and checks the data for completeness and consistency. If there are any missing or inconsistent data, it notifies the user and asks them to resubmit.

[0848] Step 7:

[0849] The server runs a data analysis algorithm and emotion engine to analyze the collected sleep and emotion data, and calculates the following metrics:

[0850] Total sleep time

[0851] Deep sleep time

[0852] Light sleep duration

[0853] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[0854] Emotional fluctuation patterns

[0855] Step 8:

[0856] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[0857] Step 9:

[0858] Based on the generated report, the server generates specific recommendations and action plans suited to the user. For example, if the user snores a lot, it may suggest using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity, or if the user is under high stress based on emotional data, it may advise them to practice meditation to relax before going to bed at night.

[0859] Step 10:

[0860] The server receives the user's goal setting and generates a customized action plan accordingly. For example, if the goal is set to "exercise 30 minutes every day," the server will suggest the type and timing of exercise.

[0861] Step 11:

[0862] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user, and also sets reminders based on daily schedules to help users use their time efficiently.

[0863] Step 12:

[0864] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan and incorporate it into their daily activities.

[0865] Step 13:

[0866] The device periodically records the user's daily progress and emotional data and sends it to the server, which can then use the latest data to provide further recommendations and refine the action plan.

[0867] In this way, the system of the present invention collects and analyzes the user's sleep and emotional data, and provides personalized advice and action plans to improve the user's sleep quality and overall health. By implementing specific processing steps, the user can effectively manage their health.

[1075] User: Review and act on the recommendations and action plans provided.

[1076] Specific examples

[1077] At 11 PM, the user launches a smartphone app and sets it to sleep mode. The device collects movement data and sounds throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 AM the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the total sleep time to be 7 hours, the deep sleep time to be 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the snoring frequency to be 10 times. As a result, the server generates recommendations to the user, such as "stretching before going to bed at night" and "using a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." The user follows the advice provided to improve their lifestyle habits and gradually achieve their goals.

[1078] This allows users to get better quality sleep and improve their overall health and well-being. The present invention provides a system for achieving such multifaceted health management based on the claims.

[1079] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1080] Step 1:

[1081] The user opens an app on their smartphone and sets Bedtime mode, then checks the permissions the app needs to use to function properly (such as using the microphone or accelerometer).

[1082] Step 2:

[1083] The device checks the user's Bedtime setting and activates the accelerometer and microphone, preparing to record the user's movements and sounds in real time.

[1084] Step 3:

[1085] The device continuously collects user movement data and environmental sounds while the user sleeps. The accelerometer records the user's movements and movements, and the microphone records snoring and environmental sounds. This data is stored in a buffer at regular intervals (e.g., every second).

[1086] Step 4:

[1087] When the user wakes up the next morning and opens their smartphone, the app will self-check the collected data and prepare it to be sent to the server. The user can then tap the "Send Data" button to send the collected data to the server.

[1091] The server runs a data analysis algorithm to analyze the collected sleep data, specifically calculating the following metrics:

[1092] Total sleep time

[1093] Deep sleep time

[1094] Light sleep duration

[1095] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[1096] Step 7:

[1097] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[1098] Step 8:

[1099] The server uses the generated report to generate specific recommendations and action plans for the user, which, depending on the analysis results, may include advice such as:

[1100] Relaxation techniques to do before bed

[1101] Adjusting the bedroom environment (temperature, humidity, sound)

[1102] Daytime activities (exercise, caffeine intake, etc.)

[1103] Step 9:

[1104] The server receives the user's goal settings and generates a customized action plan based on them. For example, if the goal is "30 minutes of exercise every day," the server will suggest the type of exercise and timing.

[1105] Step 10:

[1106] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user. The app notifies the user that a new report is available.

[1107] Step 11:

[1108] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan.

[1109] Step 12:

[1110] The device manages the user's daily schedule and sets reminders to help them use their time efficiently. For example, if the user sets a goal of "going to bed at 10 p.m.", the device will display a notification such as "take some time to relax at 9:30 p.m."

[1111] Through these processing steps, users receive specific advice and action plans to improve their sleep quality and build healthy lifestyle habits.

[1241] Program processing

[1242] Data collection and transmission

[1243] The user launches the app on their device at night and activates sleep mode. This allows the device to collect sleep data using the accelerometer and microphone, and store it in a buffer. When the user reopens the app the next morning, the collected data is sent to the server.

[1244] Receiving and analyzing data

[1245] The server receives the collected data, first verifies its integrity, and then analyzes it using specific algorithms to calculate metrics such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, and snoring frequency.

[1246] Generate recommendations and meal plans

[1247] The server generates personalized recommendations based on the analysis results, and also suggests nutritionally balanced meal plans based on the user's health status, for example, suggesting a high-protein breakfast to a sleep-deprived user.

[1248] Fulfilling delivery orders

[1249] The application automatically places food and meal delivery orders based on the generated meal plan, allowing the user to receive the food and meals according to the proposed meal plan.

[1250] Examples of concrete examples and prompts

[1251] As a specific example, a user launches an app on their device at 11 PM and sets it to sleep mode. The device collects movement data and sounds throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 AM the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the total sleep time to be 7 hours, the deep sleep time to be 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the snoring frequency to be 10 times. As a result, it generates recommendations to the user, such as "stretching before going to bed at night" and "using a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." In addition, based on the user's health condition, it recommends a "high-protein breakfast," and appropriate food is delivered.

[1252] Example prompt sentence:

[1253] The user's sleep data for the past 7 days is as follows: Total sleep time: 6 hours on average, Deep sleep time: 2 hours on average, Snoring frequency: 15 times on average. Based on this, provide appropriate diet and lifestyle recommendations to maintain good health.

[1254] This not only allows users to get quality sleep, but also allows them to eat a nutritionally balanced diet that is appropriate for their health condition.

[1255] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1256] Step 1:

[1273] The server checks the integrity of the received data, verifying that there are no missing data or outliers.

[1274] Input: Sleep data sent to the server

[1275] Output: Verified sleep data

[1276] Step 5:

[1277] Data analysis

[1278] The server analyzes the verified data using a specific algorithm, calculating indicators such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, and snoring frequency to evaluate the user's sleep quality.

[1279] Input: Verified sleep data

[1280] Output: Analysis results (total sleep time, deep sleep time, snoring frequency, etc.)

[1281] Step 6:

[1282] Generating recommendations

[1283] Based on the analysis results, the server generates personalized recommendations and action plans, such as "avoid caffeine late at night" or "adjust the humidity in your bedroom."

[1284] Input: Analysis results

[1285] Output: personalized recommendations and action plans

[1286] Step 7:

[1287] Generate a meal plan

[1288] Based on the analysis results, the server proposes a suitable meal plan for the user, for example, recommending a high-protein breakfast for a sleep-deprived user.

[1289] Input: Analysis results

[1290] Output: Suitable meal plan

[1291] Step 8:

[1292] View recommendations and meal plans

[1293] The terminal displays the recommendations and meal plans received from the server to the user.

[1294] Input: Recommendations and Meal Plans

[1295] Output: Recommendations and meal plans displayed on the device screen

[1296] Step 9:

[1297] Fulfilling delivery orders

[1298] Once the user agrees to the meal plan, the device automatically sends a delivery order to the server, and the food or meal is delivered to the user.

[1299] Input: User consent

[1300] Output: Sending delivery orders and delivering food and dishes

[1301] Through these steps, users can ensure they get good quality sleep and eat a diet that is optimal for their health.

[1302] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be further combined. That is, the identification processing unit 290 may estimate the user's emotion using the emotion identification model 59, and perform identification processing using the user's emotion.

[1303] The present invention provides a system for ensuring a user's quality sleep and improving their overall health and well-being. The system collects and analyzes sleep and emotional data from the user, and provides personalized advice and action plans based on the collected data. Specific embodiments are described in detail below.

[1304] System configuration

[1305] This system consists of the following elements:

[1321] Goal setting: Users can set goals for health, stress management, exercise, etc. and send them to the server.

[1322] Program processing

[1323] Collection and transmission of sleep and emotional data

[1324] User: The smartphone app is started at night, sleep mode is set, facial expression analysis function is enabled, and the emotion engine is running.

[1325] Device: The acceleration sensor and microphone are activated to continuously collect data while the user is sleeping. The camera analyzes the user's facial expressions and collects emotional data.

[1326] Receiving and analyzing data

[1327] On the device: The next morning, when the user wakes up and reopens the app, the collected data is sent to the server.

[1328] Server: Receives the collected data and first verifies the data integrity. Then, it analyzes the data using algorithms to calculate metrics such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, light sleep time, and snoring frequency. In addition, it analyzes the user's emotional data using an emotion engine.

[1329] Generate recommendations and action plans

[1330] Server: Based on the analysis results, it generates different recommendations for each user. For example, if a user snores a lot, it recommends using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity in the bedroom. Based on emotional data, if the user is under a lot of stress, it suggests meditating to relax before going to bed at night.

[1331] Server: Generates a detailed action plan based on the goals set by the user. For example, if the goal is to exercise 30 minutes a day, the server will suggest specific exercise content and timing.

[1332] User notification and assistance

[1333] Device: Displays the recommendations and action plans received from the server to the user. It also suggests optimal time management based on the user's daily schedule and sets reminders.

[1334] User: Opens the app, reviews the recommendations and action plans provided, and acts on them.

[1335] Specific examples

[1336] The user enables the emotion engine and sets the bedtime mode at 10 p.m. The device collects motion, sound, and emotion data throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 a.m. the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the data and determines that the total sleep time is 7 hours, the deep sleep time is 2 hours and 30 minutes, the snoring frequency is 10 times, and the stress level is high. As a result, the server generates and notifies the user of the recommendation to "meditate before bed and use a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." The user follows the suggested advice, improving their sleep quality and promoting their overall health.

[1337] This allows users to combine emotional data to receive more accurate advice and action plans to build healthy lifestyle habits.The present invention provides a comprehensive system for supporting users' sleep and emotional management based on the claims.

[1338] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1339] Step 1:

[1340] A user opens a smartphone app, sets the sleep mode, enables the facial expression analysis function, and runs the emotion engine. At this time, the app checks for necessary permissions (such as access to the microphone, accelerometer, and camera).

[1341] Step 2:

[1342] The device checks the user's Bedtime setting and activates the accelerometer, microphone, and camera, ready to record the user's movements, sounds, and facial expressions in real time.

[1343] Step 3:

[1344] The device continuously collects motion and sound data from the user while they sleep. The acceleration sensor records the user's movements and movements, and the microphone records snoring and environmental sounds. The camera also records the user's facial expressions, which the emotion engine analyzes to generate emotion data.

[1345] Step 4:

[1346] The data collected by the terminal is stored in a buffer at regular intervals (for example, every second), which ensures data consistency and integrity.

[1347] Step 5:

[1348] When the user wakes up the next morning and opens their smartphone, the app prepares to send the data collected during the night to the server. The user taps the "Send Data" button to send the collected data to the server.

[1349] Step 6:

[1350] The server receives the data sent by the user and checks the data for completeness and consistency. If there are any missing or inconsistent data, it notifies the user and asks them to resubmit.

[1351] Step 7:

[1352] The server runs a data analysis algorithm and emotion engine to analyze the collected sleep and emotion data, and calculates the following metrics:

[1353] Total sleep time

[1354] Deep sleep time

[1355] Light sleep duration

[1356] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[1357] Emotional fluctuation patterns

[1358] Step 8:

[1359] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[1360] Step 9:

[1361] Based on the generated report, the server generates specific recommendations and action plans suited to the user. For example, if the user snores a lot, it may suggest using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity, or if the user is under high stress based on emotional data, it may advise them to practice meditation to relax before going to bed at night.

[1362] Step 10:

[1363] The server receives the user's goal setting and generates a customized action plan accordingly. For example, if the goal is set to "exercise 30 minutes every day," the server will suggest the type and timing of exercise.

[1364] Step 11:

[1365] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user, and also sets reminders based on daily schedules to help users use their time efficiently.

[1366] Step 12:

[1367] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan and incorporate it into their daily activities.

[1368] Step 13:

[1369] The device periodically records the user's daily progress and emotional data and sends it to the server, which can then use the latest data to provide further recommendations and refine the action plan.

[1370] In this way, the system of the present invention collects and analyzes the user's sleep and emotional data, and provides personalized advice and action plans to improve the user's sleep quality and overall health. By implementing specific processing steps, the user can effectively manage their health.

[1581] At 11 PM, the user launches a smartphone app and sets it to sleep mode. The device collects movement data and sounds throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 AM the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the total sleep time to be 7 hours, the deep sleep time to be 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the snoring frequency to be 10 times. As a result, the server generates recommendations to the user, such as "stretching before going to bed at night" and "using a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." The user follows the advice provided to improve their lifestyle habits and gradually achieve their goals.

[1582] This allows users to get better quality sleep and improve their overall health and well-being. The present invention provides a system for achieving such multifaceted health management based on the claims.

[1583] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1584] Step 1:

[1585] The user opens an app on their smartphone and sets Bedtime mode, then checks the permissions the app needs to use to function properly (such as using the microphone or accelerometer).

[1586] Step 2:

[1587] The device checks the user's Bedtime setting and activates the accelerometer and microphone, preparing to record the user's movements and sounds in real time.

[1597] Deep sleep time

[1598] Light sleep duration

[1599] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[1600] Step 7:

[1601] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[1602] Step 8:

[1603] The server uses the generated report to generate specific recommendations and action plans for the user, which, depending on the analysis results, may include advice such as:

[1604] Relaxation techniques to do before bed

[1605] Adjusting the bedroom environment (temperature, humidity, sound)

[1606] Daytime activities (exercise, caffeine intake, etc.)

[1607] Step 9:

[1608] The server receives the user's goal settings and generates a customized action plan based on them. For example, if the goal is "30 minutes of exercise every day," the server will suggest the type of exercise and timing.

[1609] Step 10:

[1610] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user. The app notifies the user that a new report is available.

[1611] Step 11:

[1612] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan.

[1613] Step 12:

[1614] The device manages the user's daily schedule and sets reminders to help them use their time efficiently. For example, if the user sets a goal of "going to bed at 10 p.m.", the device will display a notification such as "take some time to relax at 9:30 p.m."

[1824] Recommendation display: Displaying advice and action plans from the server to the user.

[1825] Goal setting: Users can set goals for health, stress management, exercise, etc. and send them to the server.

[1826] Program processing

[1827] Collection and transmission of sleep and emotional data

[1828] User: The smartphone app is started at night, sleep mode is set, facial expression analysis function is enabled, and the emotion engine is running.

[1829] Device: The acceleration sensor and microphone are activated to continuously collect data while the user is sleeping. The camera analyzes the user's facial expressions and collects emotional data.

[1830] Receiving and analyzing data

[1831] On the device: The next morning, when the user wakes up and reopens the app, the collected data is sent to the server.

[1832] Server: Receives the collected data and first verifies the data integrity. Then, it analyzes the data using algorithms to calculate metrics such as total sleep time, deep sleep time, light sleep time, and snoring frequency. In addition, it analyzes the user's emotional data using an emotion engine.

[1833] Generate recommendations and action plans

[1834] Server: Based on the analysis results, it generates different recommendations for each user. For example, if a user snores a lot, it recommends using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity in the bedroom. Based on emotional data, if the user is under a lot of stress, it suggests meditating to relax before going to bed at night.

[1835] Server: Generates a detailed action plan based on the goals set by the user. For example, if the goal is to exercise 30 minutes a day, the server will suggest specific exercise content and timing.

[1836] User notification and assistance

[1837] Device: Displays the recommendations and action plans received from the server to the user. It also suggests optimal time management based on the user's daily schedule and sets reminders.

[1838] User: Opens the app, reviews the recommendations and action plans provided, and acts on them.

[1839] Specific examples

[1840] The user enables the emotion engine and sets the bedtime mode at 10 p.m. The device collects motion, sound, and emotion data throughout the night, and when the user reopens the app at 7 a.m. the next morning, the data is sent to the server. The server analyzes the data and determines that the total sleep time is 7 hours, the deep sleep time is 2 hours and 30 minutes, the snoring frequency is 10 times, and the stress level is high. As a result, the server generates and notifies the user of the recommendation to "meditate before bed and use a humidifier to maintain humidity in the bedroom." The user follows the suggested advice, improving their sleep quality and promoting their overall health.

[1841] This allows users to combine emotional data to receive more accurate advice and action plans to build healthy lifestyle habits.The present invention provides a comprehensive system for supporting users' sleep and emotional management based on the claims.

[1842] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1843] Step 1:

[1844] A user opens a smartphone app, sets the sleep mode, enables the facial expression analysis function, and runs the emotion engine. At this time, the app checks for necessary permissions (such as access to the microphone, accelerometer, and camera).

[1845] Step 2:

[1846] The device checks the user's Bedtime setting and activates the accelerometer, microphone, and camera, ready to record the user's movements, sounds, and facial expressions in real time.

[1847] Step 3:

[1848] The device continuously collects motion and sound data from the user while they sleep. The acceleration sensor records the user's movements and movements, and the microphone records snoring and environmental sounds. The camera also records the user's facial expressions, which the emotion engine analyzes to generate emotion data.

[1849] Step 4:

[1850] The data collected by the terminal is stored in a buffer at regular intervals (for example, every second), which ensures data consistency and integrity.

[1851] Step 5:

[1852] When the user wakes up the next morning and opens their smartphone, the app prepares to send the data collected during the night to the server. The user taps the "Send Data" button to send the collected data to the server.

[1853] Step 6:

[1854] The server receives the data sent by the user and checks the data for completeness and consistency. If there are any missing or inconsistent data, it notifies the user and asks them to resubmit.

[1855] Step 7:

[1856] The server runs a data analysis algorithm and emotion engine to analyze the collected sleep and emotion data, and calculates the following metrics:

[1857] Total sleep time

[1858] Deep sleep time

[1859] Light sleep duration

[1860] The frequency and frequency of snoring

[1861] Emotional fluctuation patterns

[1862] Step 8:

[1863] The server then generates a report for each user based on the analysis results, which includes the aforementioned metrics and provides an overall assessment of the user's sleep performance.

[1864] Step 9:

[1865] Based on the generated report, the server generates specific recommendations and action plans suited to the user. For example, if the user snores a lot, it may suggest using a humidifier to maintain appropriate humidity, or if the user is under high stress based on emotional data, it may advise them to practice meditation to relax before going to bed at night.

[1866] Step 10:

[1867] The server receives the user's goal setting and generates a customized action plan accordingly. For example, if the goal is set to "exercise 30 minutes every day," the server will suggest the type and timing of exercise.

[1868] Step 11:

[1869] The device displays the reports, recommendations, and action plans received from the server to the user, and also sets reminders based on daily schedules to help users use their time efficiently.

[1870] Step 12:

[1871] The user opens the app, reviews the reports and recommendations provided, and plans specific steps to implement the proposed action plan and incorporate it into their daily activities.

[1872] Step 13:

[1873] The device periodically records the user's daily progress and emotional data and sends it to the server, which can then use the latest data to provide further recommendations and refine the action plan.

[1874] In this way, the system of the present invention collects and analyzes the user's sleep and emotional data, and provides personalized advice and action plans to improve the user's sleep quality and overall health. By implementing specific processing steps, the user can effectively manage their health.

In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.

[2037] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (Internet Search<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (Internet search <url: https: gemini.google.com ?hl="ja">) and other generation AIs. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. A prompt including an instruction is input to the data generation model 58, and inference data such as voice data indicating voice, text data indicating text, and image data indicating an image is also input. The data generation model 58 performs inference on the input inference data in accordance with the instruction indicated by the prompt, and outputs the inference result in a data format such as voice data and text data. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization.

[2038] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by the data processing device 12, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be performed by the robot 414.

[2039] The emotion identification model 59 as an emotion engine may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to an emotion map (see FIG. 9), which is a specific mapping. Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.

[2040] FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an emotion map 400 on which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. Emotions closer to the center of the concentric circles are more primitive. Emotions representing states and actions arising from a state of mind are arranged on the outer edges of the concentric circles. The concept of emotion includes both affect and mental states. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are arranged on the left side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally induced by situational judgment are arranged on the right side of the concentric circles. Emotions generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the concentric circles. Furthermore, the emotion of "pleasure" is arranged on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "discomfort" is arranged on the lower side. In this way, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure by which emotions are generated, and emotions that tend to occur simultaneously are mapped close to each other.

[2041] These emotions are distributed in the 3 o'clock direction on emotion map 400, and typically fluctuate between relief and anxiety. In the right half of emotion map 400, situational awareness dominates over internal sensations, resulting in a sense of calm.

[2042] The inside of emotion map 400 represents what is going on in the mind, and the outside of emotion map 400 represents behavior, so the further you go outside emotion map 400, the more visible the emotions become (the more they are expressed in behavior).

[2043] Human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. Emotions can also be created for robots, automobiles, and motorcycles, based on various balances, such as posture and remaining battery life. When these balances deviate from the ideal, a state of discomfort is indicated, and when they approach the ideal, a state of pleasure is indicated. An emotion map can be generated, for example, based on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on Voice Emotion Recognition and Emotional Brain Physiological Signal Analysis Systems, Tokushima University, Doctoral Dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "reaction" domain, where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map lists emotions belonging to the "situation" domain, where situational awareness is dominant.

[2044] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is a negative emotion on the situation side, around the middle of "repentance" or "reflection." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is a positive emotion on the response side, around "desire." In other words, this occurs when the robot experiences positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."

[2045] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values ​​indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple pieces of training data that are combinations of user input and emotion values ​​indicating each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions that are located close to each other have similar values, as in the emotion map 900 shown in FIG. 10. FIG. 10 shows an example in which multiple emotions, "relieved," "calm," and "reassuring," have similar emotion values.

[2046] The system according to the present disclosure has been described above mainly with respect to the functions of the data processing device 12, but the system according to the present disclosure is not necessarily implemented on a server. The system according to the present disclosure may be implemented as a general information processing system. The present disclosure may be implemented, for example, as a software program running on a personal computer or an application running on a smartphone, etc. The method according to the present disclosure may be provided to users in the form of SaaS (Software as a Service).

[2047] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing is performed by one computer 22, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and the specific processing may be distributed and performed by a plurality of computers including the computer 22. For example, the data generation model 58 may be provided in an external device of the data processing device 12, and data may be generated in the external device in accordance with input data.

[2048] In the above embodiment, an example in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32 has been described, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-transitory storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-transitory storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes the specific processing in accordance with the specific processing program 56.

[2049] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.

[2050] It is not necessary to store all of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store all of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; only a portion of the specific processing program 56 may be stored.

[2051] The hardware resource for executing a specific process can be any of the following processors: An example of a processor is a CPU, which is a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource for executing a specific process by executing software, i.e., a program. Another example of a processor is a dedicated electrical circuit, such as an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), a PLD (Programmable Logic Device), or an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), which is a processor with a circuit configuration designed specifically for executing a specific process. Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and each processor uses the memory to execute the specific process.

[2052] The hardware resource that executes the specific processing may be configured with one of these various processors, or may be configured with a combination of two or more processors of the same or different types (for example, a combination of multiple FPGAs, or a combination of a CPU and an FPGA). Also, the hardware resource that executes the specific processing may be a single processor.

[2053] As an example of a system configured with a single processor, first, one processor is configured by combining one or more CPUs and software, and this processor functions as a hardware resource that executes a specific process. Second, there is a system that uses a processor that realizes the functions of an entire system including multiple hardware resources that execute a specific process on a single IC chip, as typified by SoC (System-on-a-chip). In this way, a specific process is realized using one or more of the above-mentioned various processors as hardware resources.

[2054] Furthermore, the hardware structure of these various processors can be, more specifically, an electric circuit that combines circuit elements such as semiconductor devices. The specific processing described above is merely an example. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary steps may be deleted, new steps may be added, or the processing order may be rearranged, without departing from the spirit of the invention.

For example, the above description of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects is an explanation of an example of the configuration, functions, actions, and effects of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure. Therefore, it goes without saying that unnecessary parts may be deleted, new elements may be added, or replacements may be made to the above-described description and illustrations within the scope of the gist of the technology of the present disclosure. Furthermore, to avoid confusion and facilitate understanding of the parts related to the technology of the present disclosure, the above-described description and illustrations omit explanations of common technical knowledge that do not require particular explanation to enable the implementation of the technology of the present disclosure.
