In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0041] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, motion data preprocessing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means to monitor, analyze, and provide appropriate instructions to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time.

[0042] System Overview

[0043] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, and a terminal that notifies the user.

[0044] First, sensors detect the user's movements in real time. The sensors capture specific movements, such as walking or lifting, and transmit the data to a device. For example, a sensor collects information on the angle and position of the user's foot while walking with a prosthetic leg.

[0045] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data. The preprocessed data is then sent to a server and input into the generative artificial intelligence.

[0046] The server then analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). Based on the analysis results, it detects improper behavior and risk of falling. From this analysis, it generates instructions to provide to the user.

[0047] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the terminal, which provides the instructions to the user by visual display (e.g., on-screen text message) or audio notification.

[0048] Specific examples

[0049] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[0050] If a user's foot becomes unstable while walking using a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server analyzes it using generative artificial intelligence and recognizes that there is a high risk of falling. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture," and the user is notified via the device. The notification is displayed as a text message on the screen and a voice message is broadcast at the same time.

[0051] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[0052] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic arm, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device removes noise, normalizes the data, and then sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects that the movement is inappropriate. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "The movement is inappropriate. Please check again," and the user is notified via the device. This is also communicated to the user via a screen display and voice message.

[0053] In this way, this system can significantly improve the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly by analyzing the user's movements in real time and providing appropriate instructions quickly.

[0054] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0055] Step 1:

[0056] A user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg. For example, consider a situation in which a user walks with a prosthetic leg.

[0057] Step 2:

[0058] The sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect specific movement data (for example, foot angle and position information over time).

[0059] Step 3:

[0060] The sensors collect and transmit motion data, including real-time location and angle data, to the device.

[0061] Step 4:

[0062] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, which includes denoising and normalizing the data, converting it into a format that is easier to analyze.

[0063] Step 5:

[0064] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where the data has been denoised and normalised.

[0065] Step 6:

[0066] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model that includes advanced learning algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[0067] Step 7:

[0068] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data, detecting inappropriate movements and dangers from the data. For example, if a walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[0069] Step 8:

[0070] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, including specific content such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[0071] Step 9:

[0072] The server generates instructions and sends them to the terminal. The instructions may be in text or audio format.

[0073] Step 10:

[0074] The terminal notifies the user of the instructions received from the server. Notification methods include displaying a text message on the screen or an audio announcement. For example, the user may be shown a message saying "Danger of falling. Please correct your posture.", and simultaneously notified by an audio message.

[0075] Example 1

[0076] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0077] In technology that monitors the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time and provides appropriate instructions quickly, current systems have issues with insufficient noise removal and normalization of movement data, making it difficult to obtain accurate analysis results.In addition, there are limited means of notifying users, which makes it difficult to provide sufficient warnings in certain environments.

[0078] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0079] In this invention, the server includes means for preprocessing motion data received from the bionic sensor, means for removing noise from the motion data and normalizing the motion data, means for analyzing the preprocessed motion data and using generative artificial intelligence to detect inappropriate motions or dangers, and means for providing instructions to the user by visual display or audio notification based on the analysis results of the generative artificial intelligence, thereby enabling more accurate analysis of the user's motions in real time and providing more appropriate and prompt instructions.

[0080] A "bionic sensor" is a device that detects the movement or physiological state of a living organism and acquires this information as data.

[0081] "Motion data" refers to data that includes information about specific movements performed by a user, such as walking or lifting an object, recorded in real time.

[0083] The "means for removing noise and normalizing" refers to a process for removing unnecessary fluctuations and outliers contained in the operational data and converting the data to a uniform scale.

[0084] "Generative AI" is a type of AI that has the ability to analyze the data it receives and generate new instructions or results.

[0085] A "recurrent neural network" is a neural network model used to analyze time-series data, and is capable of storing past information and using it in current analysis.

[0086] "Means for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results" refers to a means for issuing instructions to the user to encourage appropriate actions or corrections based on the results of the generative artificial intelligence's analysis of data.

[0087] "Visual display" refers to a method of conveying analytical results or instructions to the user using text or graphics, typically displayed as a message on a screen.

[0088] "Voice notification" is a method of conveying analysis results and instructions to the user by voice, and is provided as a voice message through a speaker or headset.

[0089] The present invention relates to a system that combines bionic sensors, pre-processing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means, and is capable of monitoring, analyzing, and providing appropriate instructions in real time to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people when using prosthetic limbs.

[0197] Data Preprocessor: A computer / device that performs data denoising and normalization.

[0198] Generative artificial intelligence: Uses deep learning frameworks such as TensorFlow.

[0199] Notification Device: A display, speaker, or any type of alert device.

[0200] Specific scenes and prompts

[0201] 1. Example:

[0202] If a driver's heart rate suddenly rises while driving and the recurrent neural network model determines this to be an abnormality, the system will notify the driver with a message saying, "An abnormality has been detected. Please take a break immediately."

[0203] 2. Example prompt:

[0204] "Predict the probability that the driver's heart rate will reach an abnormal value and notify the driver of the abnormality."

[0205] effect

[0206] This system will ensure the safety of drivers of self-driving vehicles and enable rapid response in emergencies, thereby improving the safety and reliability of self-driving vehicles.

[0207] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0208] Step 1:

[0209] Data collection

[0210] When a user gets into an autonomous vehicle, bionic sensors measure their vital signs, such as heart rate, skin temperature, and muscle activity, in real time, and transmit this data to a device.

[0211] Input: Biometric data from biometric sensors

[0212] Output: Raw data sent to the terminal

[0213] Step 2:

[0214] Data Preprocessing

[0215] The device receives the received biometric data and performs noise reduction and normalization on it. Noise reduction removes unnecessary parts of the data, and normalization converts the data into a format suitable for analysis, allowing for smoother analysis.

[0216] Input: Raw data received from the sensor

[0217] Output: Preprocessed data

[0218] Step 3:

[0219] Data analysis

[0220] The preprocessed data is sent from the device to a server, where it is analyzed by a generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). The purpose of the analysis is to detect abnormalities in the driver's biometric information.

[0221] Input: Preprocessed data

[0222] Output: Analysis results (whether anomalies were detected)

[0223] Step 4:

[0224] Generate notifications

[0225] The server generates a notification to the driver based on the analysis results. For example, if the driver's heart rate suddenly rises, it generates a message saying, "An abnormality has been detected. Please take a break immediately."

[0226] Input: Analysis results

[0227] Output: Notification content (message)

[0228] Step 5:

[0229] Sending notifications

[0230] The generated notification is sent to the terminal, which then notifies the driver visually or audibly. Specifically, it is possible to display a message on the display and play an audio message through the speaker.

[0231] Input: Notification content

[0232] Output: Notification to the driver (visual and audio)

[0233] In this way, the system can ensure safety by monitoring the driver's biometric information in real time and immediately notifying the driver if any abnormalities are detected.

[0234] Furthermore, an emotion engine that estimates the user's emotion may be 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.

[0235] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, a means for preprocessing motion data, generative artificial intelligence, a means for notifying users, and an emotion engine that recognizes users' emotions. This system not only monitors and analyzes the motions of physically disabled or elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time and provides appropriate instructions, but also takes into account the user's emotional state to reduce the psychological burden.

[0236] System Overview

[0237] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[0238] Operation flow

[0239] First, the sensor detects the user's movements in real time. For example, when the user walks with a prosthetic leg, the sensor collects information on the angle and position of the walking leg. The sensor then transmits this movement data to the device.

[0240] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data, and then sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[0241] On the server, generative AI analyzes the preprocessed data and detects inappropriate behavior or danger. Based on the analysis results, instructions are generated for the user. For example, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture."

[0242] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the device, which then communicates the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to receive appropriate advice in real time.

[0243] Emotion Engine Operation

[0244] The emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state. The emotion engine utilizes data obtained from sensors, cameras, and microphones. The results of emotion recognition are added as additional information to the behavior analysis results of generative AI.

[0245] Based on the results of the emotion engine, the instructions to the user can be adjusted accordingly. For example, if the user feels anxious about the risk of falling, a message such as "Please walk slowly and calmly" will be generated to reduce the psychological burden.

[0246] Specific examples

[0247] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[0248] If a user makes unsteady movements while walking with a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device then preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes it and detects the risk of falling. If the emotion engine recognizes anxiety from the user's facial expression, it generates an instruction saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture," and notifies the user via the device. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[0249] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[0250] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic hand, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects the inappropriate movement. Furthermore, if the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the user's tone of voice, it generates an instruction saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the device.

[0251] In this way, the system can detect and analyze the user's movements and emotions in real time, and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support, further improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[0252] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0253] Step 1:

[0254] The user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg, for example, the user starts walking with the prosthetic leg.

[0255] Step 2:

[0256] Sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect movement data, such as the angle and position of the feet while walking.

[0257] Step 3:

[0258] The sensors collect motion data and transmit it to the device, including real-time location and angle data.

[0259] Step 4:

[0260] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, specifically removing noise from the data and normalizing it, making the data easier to analyze.

[0261] Step 5:

[0262] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where it is in a denoised and normalized form.

[0263] Step 6:

[0264] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model, which uses advanced algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[0265] Step 7:

[0266] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data and detect inappropriate movements or dangers. For example, if the user's walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[0267] Step 8:

[0268] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[0269] Step 9:

[0270] The server generates and sends the instructions to the device, which may be in the form of a text or audio file.

[0271] Step 10:

[0272] The terminal notifies the user of the instruction received from the server, for example by displaying a message on the screen and playing a voice message.

[0273] Step 11:

[0274] The device collects the user's facial expressions and tone of voice and inputs them into the emotion engine as emotional data. For example, the device collects the user's reactions through a camera or microphone.

[0275] Step 12:

[0276] The server's emotion engine analyzes the emotion data and recognizes the user's emotional state, for example, determining whether the user is tense or relaxed.

[0277] Step 13:

[0278] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server adjusts the instructions to correspond to the user's psychological state. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, it generates instructions that give a sense of security.

[0279] Step 14:

[0280] The server then sends the adjusted instructions back to the device, and the device notifies the user. For example, the device displays and speaks the instruction "Please walk slowly and calmly."

[0281] Example 2

[0282] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0283] Conventional motion assistance systems can monitor a user's motion and provide necessary instructions, but they cannot consider the user's real-time emotional state and lack the ability to reduce psychological stress. This has led to problems such as increased psychological stress when physically disabled people and elderly people use prosthetic limbs. Therefore, the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to reduce psychological stress by recognizing the user's emotional state in real time and adjusting instructions based on that.

[0284] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0285] In this invention, the server includes a device for preprocessing motion data received from a bionic sensor, a device using generative artificial intelligence to analyze the preprocessed motion data and detect inappropriate motions or dangers, a device for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results of the generative artificial intelligence, a device for recognizing the emotional state of the user by analyzing the user's facial expressions and tone of voice, a device for adjusting the instructions taking the emotional state into consideration, and a device for notifying the user of the instructions, thereby making it possible to monitor the user's motions and emotions in real time and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support at the same time.

[0286] A "bionic sensor" is a device that detects and measures human movement and physiological data in real time.

[0287] "Motion data" refers to information about the movements, position information, angle information, and other movements when a user uses a prosthetic arm or leg.

[0288] "Preprocessing" is the process of converting raw data received from sensors into a format suitable for analysis by performing processes such as noise removal and normalization.

[0289] "Generative AI" is a machine learning model that analyzes input data and learns and predicts specific patterns and trends. It often uses advanced algorithms, such as recurrent neural networks.

[0290] "Analysis results" are information obtained by generative artificial intelligence analyzing behavioral data, and indicate whether or not there is inappropriate behavior or danger.

[0291] A "device that gives instructions to the user" is a device that provides specific instructions and advice to the user based on the analysis results of generative artificial intelligence.

[0292] "Emotional state" refers to the user's current psychological state and is analyzed based on data such as facial expressions and tone of voice.

[0293] An "emotion engine" is software or algorithm that analyzes a user's facial expressions, tone of voice, etc. to recognize their emotional state.

[0294] "Adjusting the content of instructions" means changing the content of the instructions provided based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, taking into account the user's psychological state.

[0295] "Notification" refers to the act of conveying analysis results or instructions to the user visually or audibly.

[0296] "Real-time" is a term that indicates that sensors and systems instantly recognize the user's actions and emotional state, and then analyze and respond immediately.

[0297] This system combines bionic sensors, a motion data preprocessing device, generative artificial intelligence, a user notification device, and an emotion engine. The system aims to monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, provide appropriate instructions, and reduce the psychological burden by taking into account the user's emotional state.

[0298] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[0299] Hardware and software used

[0300] Sensors: Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Camera, Microphone

[0301] Devices: Mobile devices, tablets, wearable devices

[0302] Server: High-performance computing server, cloud computing platform

[0303] Generative AI model: Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)

[0304] Emotion engine: facial expression recognition algorithm, voice tone analysis algorithm

[0305] Data processing and calculation

[0306] 1. Sensor operation data collection

[0307] As the user uses the prosthetic limb, bionic sensors collect real-time motion data, capturing acceleration, angle, and position information at high frequency, which is then transmitted to a device.

[0308] 2. Preprocessing by the terminal

[0309] The device performs noise reduction and data normalization on the raw data received from the sensors. Denoising is done to remove outliers and unnecessary data, and normalization is done to put the data into a consistent format, making it suitable for analysis by generative artificial intelligence.

[0310] 3. Data analysis by the server

[0311] The preprocessed data is sent to a server and input into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model). The model analyzes the user's movements to detect inappropriate behavior and danger. For example, it can predict the risk of falling based on the movement of the feet while walking.

[0312] 4. Emotion Recognition by Emotion Engine

[0313] The server's emotion engine uses data acquired from the camera and microphone to analyze the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state in real time, for example, detecting anxiety or irritation.

[0314] 5. Instruction Generation and Notification

[0315] Based on the analysis results of the generative AI and the recognition results of the emotion engine, the server generates instructions to give to the user. These instructions are sent to the device in real time, and the device conveys the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to take appropriate action immediately.

[0316] Specific examples

[0317] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[0318] "Prompt: The user is walking with a prosthetic leg and has become unsteady on their feet. The sensor detects this information and sends it to the device. The generative AI analyzes this data and detects the risk of falling. If anxiety is recognized from the user's facial expression, generate appropriate instructions."

[0319] An example of a generated instruction might be: "Danger of falling. Please slowly regain your balance."

[0320] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[0321] "Prompt: The user performed an inappropriate action while lifting an object with the prosthetic arm. The sensor detected this information and sent it to the device. The generative AI analyzed this data and detected the inappropriate action. If frustration is detected in the user's tone of voice, generate appropriate instructions."

[0322] An example of a generated instruction would be: "Inappropriate behavior. Please calm down and try again."

[0323] By using this system, users can receive appropriate instructions and psychological support in real time, thereby improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[0324] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[0325] Step 1:

[0326] Sensors collect user movement data in real time.

[0327] Input: The user's prosthetic arm or leg movements

[0328] Movement: Accelerometer and gyroscope sensors measure your movement at a rate of 50 times per second.

[0329] Output: Raw data (foot angle, position information, etc.)

[0330] Step 2:

[0331] The device preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors.

[0332] Input: Raw data from the sensor

[0333] What it does: It removes noise and normalizes the data, eliminating outliers and scaling the data range to 0-1.

[0334] Output: Preprocessed data

[0335] Step 3:

[0336] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[0337] Input: Preprocessed data

[0338] How it works: Sends data using an HTTP POST request.

[0339] Output: Preprocessed data arriving at the server

[0340] Step 4:

[0341] The server analyzes the preprocessed data using generative artificial intelligence.

[0342] Input: Preprocessed data

[0343] Behavior: Data is fed into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model) to detect inappropriate behavior and danger.

[0344] Output: Analysis results (e.g., whether there is a risk of falling)

[0345] Step 5:

[0346] The server's emotion engine recognizes the user's emotional state in real time.

[0347] Input: Data from camera and microphone (facial expressions, tone of voice)

[0348] How it works: Recognizes emotional states using facial expression recognition and audio tone analysis algorithms.

[0349] Output: Emotion recognition result (e.g., anxiety, irritation)

[0350] Step 6:

[0351] The server generates instructions based on the analysis results and emotion recognition results.

[0352] Input: Analysis results, emotion recognition results

[0353] Action: The analysis results are combined with the emotion recognition results to generate instructions such as "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture."

[0354] Output: Generated instructions

[0355] Step 7:

[0356] The server sends the generated instructions to the terminal.

[0357] Input: Generated instructions

[0358] Operation: Sends instructions to the device in real time using WebSocket.

[0359] Output: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[0360] Step 8:

[0361] The device notifies the user of the instructions.

[0362] Input: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[0363] Operation: Instructions are displayed on the device screen and communicated aloud through the speaker.

[0364] Output: Instructions to the user

[0365] In this way, the processing flow of the entire system is realized by a chain of specific operations and their inputs and outputs at each step.

[0366] (Application example 2)

[0367] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart device 14 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0368] While conventional systems can monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, they are unable to provide psychological support based on the user's emotional state. Furthermore, particularly in factory robot operating environments, there is a need for emotion analysis and appropriate instructions to reduce worker stress and anxiety, in addition to the ability to detect inappropriate movements and dangers.

[0369] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[0370] In this invention, the server includes means for preprocessing motion data received from the bionic sensor, means for using generative artificial intelligence to analyze the preprocessed motion data and detect inappropriate motion or danger, means for using an emotion engine to analyze emotional information such as the user's facial expression and voice, and means for providing instructions to the user based on the results of the motion analysis by the generative artificial intelligence and the results of the emotion analysis by the emotion engine. This not only improves the safety and efficiency of workers in the operating environment of factory robots, but also reduces the psychological burden on workers and provides a comfortable working environment.

[0380] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0381] The present invention is a system for improving worker safety and efficiency in a factory robotic operating environment, which combines bionic sensors, a means for pre-processing motion data, generative artificial intelligence, an emotion engine for recognizing user emotions, and a means for notifying the user.

[0382] System Overview

[0383] This system consists of the following components:

[0384] Bionic sensors: Detect the user's physical movements in real time and transmit the data to the device.

[0385] Device: Receives motion data and performs preprocessing such as noise removal and normalization. The preprocessed data is sent to the server.

[0386] Server: Analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence to detect inappropriate behavior and danger. The server also has an emotion engine that analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice.

[0387] Notification method: Based on the analysis results, instructions are given to the user through visual displays and audio notifications.

[0388] Operation flow

[0389] First, a bionic sensor detects the user's movements in real time. Next, the device preprocesses the movement data received from the sensor, removing noise and normalizing the data. This preprocessed data is sent to a server where a generative AI analyzes it. Based on the analysis results, inappropriate movements and dangers are detected. Furthermore, an emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice fluctuations to recognize the user's emotional state. Finally, appropriate instructions are generated based on the movement analysis results by the generative AI and the emotion analysis results by the emotion engine, and the instructions are communicated to the user via notification means.

[0390] Hardware and Software

[0391] Bionic sensors: devices for detecting user movements

[0392] Terminal: A device that preprocesses data and sends it to the server.

[0393] Server: A server equipped with generative artificial intelligence and emotion engine using TensorFlow and Keras libraries.

[0394] Notification method: Uses the pyttsx3 library for audio output and the display device for visual display

[0395] Specific examples

[0396] Example 1: Detecting dangerous behavior

[0397] If a worker adopts an improper posture while using a robotic arm to lift a heavy object, a bionic sensor detects this. The data sent from the sensor is preprocessed on the terminal to remove noise and normalize it. It is then sent to the server, where generative artificial intelligence detects dangerous movements. At the same time, an emotion engine analyzes the worker's facial expressions and voice and recognizes that his emotional state is unstable. Based on this information, an instruction is generated: "It's dangerous. Please slowly correct your posture." This is communicated to the worker through visual displays and audio notifications.

[0398] Example 2: Fixing improper behavior

[0399] If a worker makes an inappropriate move when using the robotic arm to lift an object, and the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the worker's tone of voice, it generates a message saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the terminal. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[0400] This improves the safety and efficiency of workers in a factory robot operation environment, reduces psychological stress, and provides a comfortable working environment.

[0401] The system can use prompts such as "Dangerous. Please slowly correct your position" or "Inappropriate movement. Please calm down and try again."

[0402] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0418] Specific behavior: A generative AI model analyzes the behavior data and evaluates the risk. The analysis results are saved.

[0419] Step 4:

[0420] The server analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice using an emotion engine.

[0421] Input: Video and audio data from the camera and microphone

[0422] Output: Sentiment analysis results (e.g., user's emotional state)

[0423] Specific operation: The emotion engine analyzes video and audio data to recognize the user's emotions. The analysis results are saved.

[0424] Step 5:

[0425] The server generates instructions for the user based on the results of motion analysis and emotion analysis.

[0426] Input: Motion analysis results and emotion analysis results

[0427] Output: Instructions (prompt)

[0428] Specific actions: Generative AI combines the results of motion analysis and emotion analysis to generate an appropriate prompt, such as "It's dangerous. Please slowly correct your posture."

[0429] Step 6:

[0430] The server sends instructions to the device, and the device notifies the user.

[0431] Input: Generated prompt statement

[0432] Output: User notification (visual and audio)

[0433] Specific operation: The server sends the generated instructions to the device, and the device communicates the instructions to the user through visual display and audio notification.

[0434] This allows users to receive proper instructions and psychological support regarding their actions in real time, improving safety and efficiency.

[0435] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart device 14. In the smart device 14, the control unit 46A causes the output device 40 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 38B acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 38B to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0436] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI (Artificial Intelligence). An example of the data generation model 58 is ChatGPT (registered trademark) (Internet search engine).<URL: https: / / openai.com / blog / chatgpt> ), Gemini (registered trademark) (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.

[0438] [Second embodiment]

[0439] FIG. 3 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 210 according to the second embodiment.

[0440] 3, the data processing system 210 includes the data processing device 12 and smart glasses 214. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0441] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 is an example of a "computer" according to the technology of the present disclosure. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. The database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are also connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0442] The smart glasses 214 include a computer 36, a microphone 238, a speaker 240, a camera 42, and a communication I / F 44. The computer 36 includes a processor 46, a RAM 48, and a storage 50. The processor 46, the RAM 48, and the storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The microphone 238, the speaker 240, and the camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0443] The microphone 238 receives instructions and the like from the user 20 by receiving voice uttered by the user 20. The microphone 238 captures the voice uttered by the user 20, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio in accordance with instructions from the processor 46.

[0450] Next, a description will be given of the identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0451] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, motion data preprocessing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means to monitor, analyze, and provide appropriate instructions to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time.

[0452] System Overview

[0453] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, and a terminal that notifies the user.

[0454] First, sensors detect the user's movements in real time. The sensors capture specific movements, such as walking or lifting, and transmit the data to a device. For example, a sensor collects information on the angle and position of the user's foot while walking with a prosthetic leg.

[0455] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data. The preprocessed data is then sent to a server and input into the generative artificial intelligence.

[0456] The server then analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). Based on the analysis results, it detects improper behavior and risk of falling. From this analysis, it generates instructions to provide to the user.

[0457] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the terminal, which provides the instructions to the user by visual display (e.g., on-screen text message) or audio notification.

[0458] Specific examples

[0459] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[0460] If a user's foot becomes unstable while walking using a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server analyzes it using generative artificial intelligence and recognizes that there is a high risk of falling. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture," and the user is notified via the device. The notification is displayed as a text message on the screen and a voice message is broadcast at the same time.

[0461] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[0462] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic arm, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device removes noise, normalizes the data, and then sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects that the movement is inappropriate. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "The movement is inappropriate. Please check again," and the user is notified via the device. This is also communicated to the user via a screen display and voice message.

[0463] In this way, this system can significantly improve the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly by analyzing the user's movements in real time and providing appropriate instructions quickly.

[0464] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0465] Step 1:

[0466] A user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg. For example, consider a situation in which a user walks with a prosthetic leg.

[0467] Step 2:

[0468] The sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect specific movement data (for example, foot angle and position information over time).

[0469] Step 3:

[0470] The sensors collect and transmit motion data, including real-time location and angle data, to the device.

[0471] Step 4:

[0472] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, which includes denoising and normalizing the data, converting it into a format that is easier to analyze.

[0473] Step 5:

[0474] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where the data has been denoised and normalised.

[0475] Step 6:

[0476] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model that includes advanced learning algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[0477] Step 7:

[0478] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data, detecting inappropriate movements and dangers from the data. For example, if a walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[0479] Step 8:

[0480] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, including specific content such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[0481] Step 9:

[0482] The server generates instructions and sends them to the terminal. The instructions may be in text or audio format.

[0483] Step 10:

[0484] The terminal notifies the user of the instructions received from the server. Notification methods include displaying a text message on the screen or an audio announcement. For example, the user may be shown a message saying "Danger of falling. Please correct your posture.", and simultaneously notified by an audio message.

[0485] Example 1

[0486] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0487] In technology that monitors the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time and provides appropriate instructions quickly, current systems have issues with insufficient noise removal and normalization of movement data, making it difficult to obtain accurate analysis results.In addition, there are limited means of notifying users, which makes it difficult to provide sufficient warnings in certain environments.

[0488] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0494] "Generative AI" is a type of AI that has the ability to analyze the data it receives and generate new instructions or results.

[0495] A "recurrent neural network" is a neural network model used to analyze time-series data, and is capable of storing past information and using it in current analysis.

[0496] "Means for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results" refers to a means for issuing instructions to the user to encourage appropriate actions or corrections based on the results of the generative artificial intelligence's analysis of data.

[0497] "Visual display" refers to a method of conveying analytical results or instructions to the user using text or graphics, typically displayed as a message on a screen.

[0498] "Voice notification" is a method of conveying analysis results and instructions to the user by voice, and is provided as a voice message through a speaker or headset.

[0499] The present invention relates to a system that combines bionic sensors, pre-processing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means, and is capable of monitoring, analyzing, and providing appropriate instructions in real time to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people when using prosthetic limbs.

[0589] An "autonomous vehicle" is a vehicle that is capable of driving autonomously without the intervention of a human driver.

[0590] "Driver's biometric information" refers to data that indicates the driver's physical condition and state, such as heart rate, skin temperature, and muscle movement.

[0591] "Means for real-time monitoring" refers to a system that instantly analyzes information obtained from sensors and monitors the driver's condition.

[0592] The "means for detecting and notifying abnormalities" is a system that issues an alert when an abnormality is detected based on the driver's biometric information.

[0593] This invention is a system for monitoring the biological information of a driver of an autonomous vehicle in real time and quickly detecting and notifying an abnormality. A specific embodiment of the system is described below.

[0594] System Configuration

[0595] The system includes the following components:

[0596] 1. Bionic sensors: Sensor devices that measure the driver's heart rate, skin temperature, muscle movement, etc.

[0597] 2. Terminal: A device that processes data received from sensors.

[0600] Operation overview

[0602] 2. Data preprocessing: The terminal performs preprocessing on the received data, such as noise removal and normalization, to convert it into a format suitable for analysis.

[0603] 3. Data analysis: The server analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). Based on the analysis results, it detects driver anomalies.

[0615] effect

[0616] This system will ensure the safety of drivers of self-driving vehicles and enable rapid response in emergencies, thereby improving the safety and reliability of self-driving vehicles.

[0617] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0618] Step 1:

[0619] Data collection

[0620] When a user gets into an autonomous vehicle, bionic sensors measure their vital signs, such as heart rate, skin temperature, and muscle activity, in real time, and transmit this data to a device.

[0621] Input: Biometric data from biometric sensors

[0622] Output: Raw data sent to the terminal

[0623] Step 2:

[0624] Data Preprocessing

[0625] The device receives the received biometric data and performs noise reduction and normalization on it. Noise reduction removes unnecessary parts of the data, and normalization converts the data into a format suitable for analysis, allowing for smoother analysis.

[0626] Input: Raw data received from the sensor

[0627] Output: Preprocessed data

[0628] Step 3:

[0629] Data analysis

[0630] The preprocessed data is sent from the device to a server, where it is analyzed by a generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). The purpose of the analysis is to detect abnormalities in the driver's biometric information.

[0631] Input: Preprocessed data

[0632] Output: Analysis results (whether anomalies were detected)

[0633] Step 4:

[0634] Generate notifications

[0635] The server generates a notification to the driver based on the analysis results. For example, if the driver's heart rate suddenly rises, it generates a message saying, "An abnormality has been detected. Please take a break immediately."

[0636] Input: Analysis results

[0637] Output: Notification content (message)

[0638] Step 5:

[0639] Sending notifications

[0640] The generated notification is sent to the terminal, which then notifies the driver visually or audibly. Specifically, it is possible to display a message on the display and play an audio message through the speaker.

[0641] Input: Notification content

[0642] Output: Notification to the driver (visual and audio)

[0643] In this way, the system can ensure safety by monitoring the driver's biometric information in real time and immediately notifying the driver if any abnormalities are detected.

[0644] 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.

[0645] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, a means for preprocessing motion data, generative artificial intelligence, a means for notifying users, and an emotion engine that recognizes users' emotions. This system not only monitors and analyzes the motions of physically disabled or elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time and provides appropriate instructions, but also takes into account the user's emotional state to reduce the psychological burden.

[0646] System Overview

[0647] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[0648] Operation flow

[0649] First, the sensor detects the user's movements in real time. For example, when the user walks with a prosthetic leg, the sensor collects information on the angle and position of the walking leg. The sensor then transmits this movement data to the device.

[0650] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data, and then sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[0651] On the server, generative AI analyzes the preprocessed data and detects inappropriate behavior or danger. Based on the analysis results, instructions are generated for the user. For example, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture."

[0652] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the device, which then communicates the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to receive appropriate advice in real time.

[0653] Emotion Engine Operation

[0654] The emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state. The emotion engine utilizes data obtained from sensors, cameras, and microphones. The results of emotion recognition are added as additional information to the behavior analysis results of generative AI.

[0655] Based on the results of the emotion engine, the instructions to the user can be adjusted accordingly. For example, if the user feels anxious about the risk of falling, a message such as "Please walk slowly and calmly" will be generated to reduce the psychological burden.

[0656] Specific examples

[0657] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[0658] If a user makes unsteady movements while walking with a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device then preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes it and detects the risk of falling. If the emotion engine recognizes anxiety from the user's facial expression, it generates an instruction saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture," and notifies the user via the device. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[0659] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[0660] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic hand, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects the inappropriate movement. Furthermore, if the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the user's tone of voice, it generates an instruction saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the device.

[0661] In this way, the system can detect and analyze the user's movements and emotions in real time, and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support, further improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[0662] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0663] Step 1:

[0664] The user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg, for example, the user starts walking with the prosthetic leg.

[0665] Step 2:

[0666] Sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect movement data, such as the angle and position of the feet while walking.

[0667] Step 3:

[0668] The sensors collect motion data and transmit it to the device, including real-time location and angle data.

[0669] Step 4:

[0670] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, specifically removing noise from the data and normalizing it, making the data easier to analyze.

[0671] Step 5:

[0672] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where it is in a denoised and normalized form.

[0673] Step 6:

[0674] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model, which uses advanced algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[0675] Step 7:

[0676] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data and detect inappropriate movements or dangers. For example, if the user's walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[0677] Step 8:

[0678] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[0679] Step 9:

[0680] The server generates and sends the instructions to the device, which may be in the form of a text or audio file.

[0681] Step 10:

[0682] The terminal notifies the user of the instruction received from the server, for example by displaying a message on the screen and playing a voice message.

[0683] Step 11:

[0684] The device collects the user's facial expressions and tone of voice and inputs them into the emotion engine as emotional data. For example, the device collects the user's reactions through a camera or microphone.

[0685] Step 12:

[0686] The server's emotion engine analyzes the emotion data and recognizes the user's emotional state, for example, determining whether the user is tense or relaxed.

[0687] Step 13:

[0688] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server adjusts the instructions to correspond to the user's psychological state. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, it generates instructions that give a sense of security.

[0689] Step 14:

[0690] The server then sends the adjusted instructions back to the device, and the device notifies the user. For example, the device displays and speaks the instruction "Please walk slowly and calmly."

[0691] Example 2

[0692] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0693] Conventional motion assistance systems can monitor a user's motion and provide necessary instructions, but they cannot consider the user's real-time emotional state and lack the ability to reduce psychological stress. This has led to problems such as increased psychological stress when physically disabled people and elderly people use prosthetic limbs. Therefore, the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to reduce psychological stress by recognizing the user's emotional state in real time and adjusting instructions based on that.

[0694] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0695] In this invention, the server includes a device for preprocessing motion data received from a bionic sensor, a device using generative artificial intelligence to analyze the preprocessed motion data and detect inappropriate motions or dangers, a device for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results of the generative artificial intelligence, a device for recognizing the emotional state of the user by analyzing the user's facial expressions and tone of voice, a device for adjusting the instructions taking the emotional state into consideration, and a device for notifying the user of the instructions, thereby making it possible to monitor the user's motions and emotions in real time and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support at the same time.

[0697] "Motion data" refers to information about the movements, position information, angle information, and other movements when a user uses a prosthetic arm or leg.

[0698] "Preprocessing" is the process of converting raw data received from sensors into a format suitable for analysis by performing processes such as noise removal and normalization.

The system aims to monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, provide appropriate instructions, and reduce the psychological burden by taking into account the user's emotional state.

[0708] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[0709] Hardware and software used

[0710] Sensors: Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Camera, Microphone

[0711] Devices: Mobile devices, tablets, wearable devices

[0712] Server: High-performance computing server, cloud computing platform

[0713] Generative AI model: Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)

[0714] Emotion engine: facial expression recognition algorithm, voice tone analysis algorithm

[0715] Data processing and calculation

[0716] 1. Sensor operation data collection

[0717] As the user uses the prosthetic limb, bionic sensors collect real-time motion data, capturing acceleration, angle, and position information at high frequency, which is then transmitted to a device.

[0718] 2. Preprocessing by the terminal

[0719] The device performs noise reduction and data normalization on the raw data received from the sensors. Denoising is done to remove outliers and unnecessary data, and normalization is done to put the data into a consistent format, making it suitable for analysis by generative artificial intelligence.

[0720] 3. Data analysis by the server

[0721] The preprocessed data is sent to a server and input into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model). The model analyzes the user's movements to detect inappropriate behavior and danger. For example, it can predict the risk of falling based on the movement of the feet while walking.

[0722] 4. Emotion Recognition by Emotion Engine

[0723] The server's emotion engine uses data acquired from the camera and microphone to analyze the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state in real time, for example, detecting anxiety or irritation.

[0724] 5. Instruction Generation and Notification

[0725] Based on the analysis results of the generative AI and the recognition results of the emotion engine, the server generates instructions to give to the user. These instructions are sent to the device in real time, and the device conveys the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to take appropriate action immediately.

[0726] Specific examples

[0727] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[0728] "Prompt: The user is walking with a prosthetic leg and has become unsteady on their feet. The sensor detects this information and sends it to the device. The generative AI analyzes this data and detects the risk of falling. If anxiety is recognized from the user's facial expression, generate appropriate instructions."

[0729] An example of a generated instruction might be: "Danger of falling. Please slowly regain your balance."

[0730] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[0731] "Prompt: The user performed an inappropriate action while lifting an object with the prosthetic arm. The sensor detected this information and sent it to the device. The generative AI analyzed this data and detected the inappropriate action. If frustration is detected in the user's tone of voice, generate appropriate instructions."

[0732] An example of a generated instruction would be: "Inappropriate behavior. Please calm down and try again."

[0733] By using this system, users can receive appropriate instructions and psychological support in real time, thereby improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[0734] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[0735] Step 1:

[0736] Sensors collect user movement data in real time.

[0737] Input: The user's prosthetic arm or leg movements

[0738] Movement: Accelerometer and gyroscope sensors measure your movement at a rate of 50 times per second.

[0739] Output: Raw data (foot angle, position information, etc.)

[0740] Step 2:

[0741] The device preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors.

[0742] Input: Raw data from the sensor

[0743] What it does: It removes noise and normalizes the data, eliminating outliers and scaling the data range to 0-1.

[0744] Output: Preprocessed data

[0745] Step 3:

[0746] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[0747] Input: Preprocessed data

[0748] How it works: Sends data using an HTTP POST request.

[0749] Output: Preprocessed data arriving at the server

[0750] Step 4:

[0751] The server analyzes the preprocessed data using generative artificial intelligence.

[0752] Input: Preprocessed data

[0753] Behavior: Data is fed into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model) to detect inappropriate behavior and danger.

[0754] Output: Analysis results (e.g., whether there is a risk of falling)

[0755] Step 5:

[0756] The server's emotion engine recognizes the user's emotional state in real time.

[0757] Input: Data from camera and microphone (facial expressions, tone of voice)

[0758] How it works: Recognizes emotional states using facial expression recognition and audio tone analysis algorithms.

[0759] Output: Emotion recognition result (e.g., anxiety, irritation)

[0760] Step 6:

[0761] The server generates instructions based on the analysis results and emotion recognition results.

[0762] Input: Analysis results, emotion recognition results

[0763] Action: The analysis results are combined with the emotion recognition results to generate instructions such as "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture."

[0764] Output: Generated instructions

[0765] Step 7:

[0766] The server sends the generated instructions to the terminal.

[0767] Input: Generated instructions

[0768] Operation: Sends instructions to the device in real time using WebSocket.

[0769] Output: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[0770] Step 8:

[0771] The device notifies the user of the instructions.

[0772] Input: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[0773] Operation: Instructions are displayed on the device screen and communicated aloud through the speaker.

[0774] Output: Instructions to the user

[0775] In this way, the processing flow of the entire system is realized by a chain of specific operations and their inputs and outputs at each step.

[0776] (Application example 2)

[0777] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the smart glasses 214 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0778] While conventional systems can monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, they are unable to provide psychological support based on the user's emotional state. Furthermore, particularly in factory robot operating environments, there is a need for emotion analysis and appropriate instructions to reduce worker stress and anxiety, in addition to the ability to detect inappropriate movements and dangers.

[0779] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

This not only improves the safety and efficiency of workers in the operating environment of factory robots, but also reduces the psychological burden on workers and provides a comfortable working environment.

[0790] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0791] The present invention is a system for improving worker safety and efficiency in a factory robotic operating environment, which combines bionic sensors, a means for pre-processing motion data, generative artificial intelligence, an emotion engine for recognizing user emotions, and a means for notifying the user.

[0792] System Overview

[0793] This system consists of the following components:

[0794] Bionic sensors: Detect the user's physical movements in real time and transmit the data to the device.

[0795] Device: Receives motion data and performs preprocessing such as noise removal and normalization. The preprocessed data is sent to the server.

[0796] Server: Analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence to detect inappropriate behavior and danger. The server also has an emotion engine that analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice.

[0797] Notification method: Based on the analysis results, instructions are given to the user through visual displays and audio notifications.

[0798] Operation flow

[0799] First, a bionic sensor detects the user's movements in real time. Next, the device preprocesses the movement data received from the sensor, removing noise and normalizing the data. This preprocessed data is sent to a server where a generative AI analyzes it. Based on the analysis results, inappropriate movements and dangers are detected. Furthermore, an emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice fluctuations to recognize the user's emotional state. Finally, appropriate instructions are generated based on the movement analysis results by the generative AI and the emotion analysis results by the emotion engine, and the instructions are communicated to the user via notification means.

[0800] Hardware and Software

[0801] Bionic sensors: devices for detecting user movements

[0802] Terminal: A device that preprocesses data and sends it to the server.

[0803] Server: A server equipped with generative artificial intelligence and emotion engine using TensorFlow and Keras libraries.

[0804] Notification method: Uses the pyttsx3 library for audio output and the display device for visual display

[0805] Specific examples

[0806] Example 1: Detecting dangerous behavior

[0807] If a worker adopts an improper posture while using a robotic arm to lift a heavy object, a bionic sensor detects this. The data sent from the sensor is preprocessed on the terminal to remove noise and normalize it. It is then sent to the server, where generative artificial intelligence detects dangerous movements. At the same time, an emotion engine analyzes the worker's facial expressions and voice and recognizes that his emotional state is unstable. Based on this information, an instruction is generated: "It's dangerous. Please slowly correct your posture." This is communicated to the worker through visual displays and audio notifications.

[0808] Example 2: Fixing improper behavior

[0809] If a worker makes an inappropriate move when using the robotic arm to lift an object, and the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the worker's tone of voice, it generates a message saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the terminal. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[0810] This improves the safety and efficiency of workers in a factory robot operation environment, reduces psychological stress, and provides a comfortable working environment.

[0811] The system can use prompts such as "Dangerous. Please slowly correct your position" or "Inappropriate movement. Please calm down and try again."

[0812] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

[0828] Specific behavior: A generative AI model analyzes the behavior data and evaluates the risk. The analysis results are saved.

[0829] Step 4:

[0830] The server analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice using an emotion engine.

[0831] Input: Video and audio data from the camera and microphone

[0832] Output: Sentiment analysis results (e.g., user's emotional state)

[0833] Specific operation: The emotion engine analyzes video and audio data to recognize the user's emotions. The analysis results are saved.

[0834] Step 5:

[0835] The server generates instructions for the user based on the results of motion analysis and emotion analysis.

[0836] Input: Motion analysis results and emotion analysis results

[0837] Output: Instructions (prompt)

[0838] Specific actions: Generative AI combines the results of motion analysis and emotion analysis to generate an appropriate prompt, such as "It's dangerous. Please slowly correct your posture."

[0839] Step 6:

[0840] The server sends instructions to the device, and the device notifies the user.

[0841] Input: Generated prompt statement

[0842] Output: User notification (visual and audio)

[0843] Specific operation: The server sends the generated instructions to the device, and the device communicates the instructions to the user through visual display and audio notification.

[0844] This allows users to receive proper instructions and psychological support regarding their actions in real time, improving safety and efficiency.

[0845] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits audio data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0846] 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.

[0860] Next, a description will be given of the identification process performed by the identification processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as the "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as the "terminal."

[0861] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, motion data preprocessing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means to monitor, analyze, and provide appropriate instructions to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time.

[0862] System Overview

[0863] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, and a terminal that notifies the user.

[0864] First, sensors detect the user's movements in real time. The sensors capture specific movements, such as walking or lifting, and transmit the data to a device. For example, a sensor collects information on the angle and position of the user's foot while walking with a prosthetic leg.

[0865] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data. The preprocessed data is then sent to a server and input into the generative artificial intelligence.

[0866] The server then analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). Based on the analysis results, it detects improper behavior and risk of falling. From this analysis, it generates instructions to provide to the user.

[0867] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the terminal, which provides the instructions to the user by visual display (e.g., on-screen text message) or audio notification.

[0868] Specific examples

[0869] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[0870] If a user's foot becomes unstable while walking using a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server analyzes it using generative artificial intelligence and recognizes that there is a high risk of falling. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture," and the user is notified via the device. The notification is displayed as a text message on the screen and a voice message is broadcast at the same time.

[0871] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[0872] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic arm, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device removes noise, normalizes the data, and then sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects that the movement is inappropriate. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "The movement is inappropriate. Please check again," and the user is notified via the device. This is also communicated to the user via a screen display and voice message.

[0873] In this way, this system can significantly improve the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly by analyzing the user's movements in real time and providing appropriate instructions quickly.

[0874] The processing flow will be explained below.

[0875] Step 1:

[0876] A user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg. For example, consider a situation in which a user walks with a prosthetic leg.

[0877] Step 2:

[0878] The sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect specific movement data (for example, foot angle and position information over time).

[0879] Step 3:

[0880] The sensors collect and transmit motion data, including real-time location and angle data, to the device.

[0881] Step 4:

[0882] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, which includes denoising and normalizing the data, converting it into a format that is easier to analyze.

[0883] Step 5:

[0884] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where the data has been denoised and normalised.

[0885] Step 6:

[0886] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model that includes advanced learning algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[0887] Step 7:

[0888] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data, detecting inappropriate movements and dangers from the data. For example, if a walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[0889] Step 8:

[0890] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, including specific content such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[0891] Step 9:

[0892] The server generates instructions and sends them to the terminal. The instructions may be in text or audio format.

[0893] Step 10:

[0894] The terminal notifies the user of the instructions received from the server. Notification methods include displaying a text message on the screen or an audio announcement. For example, the user may be shown a message saying "Danger of falling. Please correct your posture.", and simultaneously notified by an audio message.

[0895] Example 1

[0896] Next, a description will be given of Example 1. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[0897] In technology that monitors the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time and provides appropriate instructions quickly, current systems have issues with insufficient noise removal and normalization of movement data, making it difficult to obtain accurate analysis results.In addition, there are limited means of notifying users, which makes it difficult to provide sufficient warnings in certain environments.

[0898] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the first embodiment is realized by the following means.

[0899] In this invention, the server includes means for preprocessing motion data received from the bionic sensor, means for removing noise from the motion data and normalizing the motion data, means for analyzing the preprocessed motion data and using generative artificial intelligence to detect inappropriate motions or dangers, and means for providing instructions to the user by visual display or audio notification based on the analysis results of the generative artificial intelligence, thereby enabling more accurate analysis of the user's motions in real time and providing more appropriate and prompt instructions.

[0900] A "bionic sensor" is a device that detects the movement or physiological state of a living organism and acquires this information as data.

[0901] "Motion data" refers to data that includes information about specific movements performed by a user, such as walking or lifting an object, recorded in real time.

[0902] "Preprocessing means" refers to the process of processing raw data obtained from a sensor, such as by removing noise and normalizing it, and converting it into a format that is easy to analyze.

[0903] The "means for removing noise and normalizing" refers to a process for removing unnecessary fluctuations and outliers contained in the operational data and converting the data to a uniform scale.

[0904] "Generative AI" is a type of AI that has the ability to analyze the data it receives and generate new instructions or results.

[0905] A "recurrent neural network" is a neural network model used to analyze time-series data, and is capable of storing past information and using it in current analysis.

[0906] "Means for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results" refers to a means for issuing instructions to the user to encourage appropriate actions or corrections based on the results of the generative artificial intelligence's analysis of data.

[0907] "Visual display" refers to a method of conveying analytical results or instructions to the user using text or graphics, typically displayed as a message on a screen.

[0908] "Voice notification" is a method of conveying analysis results and instructions to the user by voice, and is provided as a voice message through a speaker or headset.

[0909] The present invention relates to a system that combines bionic sensors, pre-processing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means, and is capable of monitoring, analyzing, and providing appropriate instructions in real time to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people when using prosthetic limbs.

[1000] "Driver's biometric information" refers to data that indicates the driver's physical condition and state, such as heart rate, skin temperature, and muscle movement.

[1001] "Means for real-time monitoring" refers to a system that instantly analyzes information obtained from sensors and monitors the driver's condition.

[1002] The "means for detecting and notifying abnormalities" is a system that issues an alert when an abnormality is detected based on the driver's biometric information.

[1003] This invention is a system for monitoring the biological information of a driver of an autonomous vehicle in real time and quickly detecting and notifying an abnormality. A specific embodiment of the system is described below.

[1004] System Configuration

[1005] The system includes the following components:

[1006] 1. Bionic sensors: Sensor devices that measure the driver's heart rate, skin temperature, muscle movement, etc.

[1007] 2. Terminal: A device that processes data received from sensors.

[1008] 3. Server: A computer with generative artificial intelligence to analyze incoming data and generate appropriate instructions.

[1009] 4. Notification means: Visual display device and audio output device to notify the driver of abnormalities.

[1010] Operation overview

[1011] 1. Data collection: When a driver gets into an autonomous vehicle, biometric sensors measure the driver's vital signs in real time and transmit the data to a terminal.

[1012] 2. Data preprocessing: The terminal performs preprocessing on the received data, such as noise removal and normalization, to convert it into a format suitable for analysis.

[1013] 3. Data analysis: The server analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). Based on the analysis results, it detects driver anomalies.

[1025] effect

[1026] This system will ensure the safety of drivers of self-driving vehicles and enable rapid response in emergencies, thereby improving the safety and reliability of self-driving vehicles.

[1027] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1028] Step 1:

[1029] Data collection

[1030] When a user gets into an autonomous vehicle, bionic sensors measure their vital signs, such as heart rate, skin temperature, and muscle activity, in real time, and transmit this data to a device.

[1031] Input: Biometric data from biometric sensors

[1032] Output: Raw data sent to the terminal

[1033] Step 2:

[1034] Data Preprocessing

[1035] The device receives the received biometric data and performs noise reduction and normalization on it. Noise reduction removes unnecessary parts of the data, and normalization converts the data into a format suitable for analysis, allowing for smoother analysis.

[1036] Input: Raw data received from the sensor

[1037] Output: Preprocessed data

[1038] Step 3:

[1039] Data analysis

[1040] The preprocessed data is sent from the device to a server, where it is analyzed by a generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). The purpose of the analysis is to detect abnormalities in the driver's biometric information.

[1041] Input: Preprocessed data

[1042] Output: Analysis results (whether anomalies were detected)

[1043] Step 4:

[1044] Generate notifications

[1045] The server generates a notification to the driver based on the analysis results. For example, if the driver's heart rate suddenly rises, it generates a message saying, "An abnormality has been detected. Please take a break immediately."

[1046] Input: Analysis results

[1047] Output: Notification content (message)

[1048] Step 5:

[1049] Sending notifications

[1050] The generated notification is sent to the terminal, which then notifies the driver visually or audibly. Specifically, it is possible to display a message on the display and play an audio message through the speaker.

[1051] Input: Notification content

[1052] Output: Notification to the driver (visual and audio)

[1053] In this way, the system can ensure safety by monitoring the driver's biometric information in real time and immediately notifying the driver if any abnormalities are detected.

[1054] 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.

[1055] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, a means for preprocessing motion data, generative artificial intelligence, a means for notifying users, and an emotion engine that recognizes users' emotions. This system not only monitors and analyzes the motions of physically disabled or elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time and provides appropriate instructions, but also takes into account the user's emotional state to reduce the psychological burden.

[1056] System Overview

[1057] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[1058] Operation flow

[1059] First, the sensor detects the user's movements in real time. For example, when the user walks with a prosthetic leg, the sensor collects information on the angle and position of the walking leg. The sensor then transmits this movement data to the device.

[1060] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data, and then sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[1061] On the server, generative AI analyzes the preprocessed data and detects inappropriate behavior or danger. Based on the analysis results, instructions are generated for the user. For example, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture."

[1062] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the device, which then communicates the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to receive appropriate advice in real time.

[1063] Emotion Engine Operation

[1064] The emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state. The emotion engine utilizes data obtained from sensors, cameras, and microphones. The results of emotion recognition are added as additional information to the behavior analysis results of generative AI.

[1065] Based on the results of the emotion engine, the instructions to the user can be adjusted accordingly. For example, if the user feels anxious about the risk of falling, a message such as "Please walk slowly and calmly" will be generated to reduce the psychological burden.

[1066] Specific examples

[1067] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[1068] If a user makes unsteady movements while walking with a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device then preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes it and detects the risk of falling. If the emotion engine recognizes anxiety from the user's facial expression, it generates an instruction saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture," and notifies the user via the device. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[1069] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[1070] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic hand, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects the inappropriate movement. Furthermore, if the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the user's tone of voice, it generates an instruction saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the device.

[1071] In this way, the system can detect and analyze the user's movements and emotions in real time, and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support, further improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[1072] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1073] Step 1:

[1074] The user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg, for example, the user starts walking with the prosthetic leg.

[1075] Step 2:

[1076] Sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect movement data, such as the angle and position of the feet while walking.

[1077] Step 3:

[1078] The sensors collect motion data and transmit it to the device, including real-time location and angle data.

[1079] Step 4:

[1080] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, specifically removing noise from the data and normalizing it, making the data easier to analyze.

[1081] Step 5:

[1082] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where it is in a denoised and normalized form.

[1083] Step 6:

[1084] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model, which uses advanced algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[1085] Step 7:

[1086] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data and detect inappropriate movements or dangers. For example, if the user's walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[1087] Step 8:

[1088] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[1089] Step 9:

[1090] The server generates and sends the instructions to the device, which may be in the form of a text or audio file.

[1091] Step 10:

[1092] The terminal notifies the user of the instruction received from the server, for example by displaying a message on the screen and playing a voice message.

[1093] Step 11:

[1094] The device collects the user's facial expressions and tone of voice and inputs them into the emotion engine as emotional data. For example, the device collects the user's reactions through a camera or microphone.

[1095] Step 12:

[1096] The server's emotion engine analyzes the emotion data and recognizes the user's emotional state, for example, determining whether the user is tense or relaxed.

[1097] Step 13:

[1098] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server adjusts the instructions to correspond to the user's psychological state. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, it generates instructions that give a sense of security.

[1099] Step 14:

[1100] The server then sends the adjusted instructions back to the device, and the device notifies the user. For example, the device displays and speaks the instruction "Please walk slowly and calmly."

[1101] Example 2

[1102] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1103] Conventional motion assistance systems can monitor a user's motion and provide necessary instructions, but they cannot consider the user's real-time emotional state and lack the ability to reduce psychological stress. This has led to problems such as increased psychological stress when physically disabled people and elderly people use prosthetic limbs. Therefore, the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to reduce psychological stress by recognizing the user's emotional state in real time and adjusting instructions based on that.

[1104] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[1105] In this invention, the server includes a device for preprocessing motion data received from a bionic sensor, a device using generative artificial intelligence to analyze the preprocessed motion data and detect inappropriate motions or dangers, a device for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results of the generative artificial intelligence, a device for recognizing the emotional state of the user by analyzing the user's facial expressions and tone of voice, a device for adjusting the instructions taking the emotional state into consideration, and a device for notifying the user of the instructions, thereby making it possible to monitor the user's motions and emotions in real time and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support at the same time.

[1106] A "bionic sensor" is a device that detects and measures human movement and physiological data in real time.

[1107] "Motion data" refers to information about the movements, position information, angle information, and other movements when a user uses a prosthetic arm or leg.

[1108] "Preprocessing" is the process of converting raw data received from sensors into a format suitable for analysis by performing processes such as noise removal and normalization.

[1109] "Generative AI" is a machine learning model that analyzes input data and learns and predicts specific patterns and trends. It often uses advanced algorithms, such as recurrent neural networks.

[1110] "Analysis results" are information obtained by generative artificial intelligence analyzing behavioral data, and indicate whether or not there is inappropriate behavior or danger.

[1111] A "device that gives instructions to the user" is a device that provides specific instructions and advice to the user based on the analysis results of generative artificial intelligence.

[1112] "Emotional state" refers to the user's current psychological state and is analyzed based on data such as facial expressions and tone of voice.

[1113] An "emotion engine" is software or algorithm that analyzes a user's facial expressions, tone of voice, etc. to recognize their emotional state.

[1114] "Adjusting the content of instructions" means changing the content of the instructions provided based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, taking into account the user's psychological state.

[1115] "Notification" refers to the act of conveying analysis results or instructions to the user visually or audibly.

[1116] "Real-time" is a term that indicates that sensors and systems instantly recognize the user's actions and emotional state, and then analyze and respond immediately.

[1117] This system combines bionic sensors, a motion data preprocessing device, generative artificial intelligence, a user notification device, and an emotion engine. The system aims to monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, provide appropriate instructions, and reduce the psychological burden by taking into account the user's emotional state.

[1118] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[1124] Emotion engine: facial expression recognition algorithm, voice tone analysis algorithm

[1125] Data processing and calculation

[1126] 1. Sensor operation data collection

[1127] As the user uses the prosthetic limb, bionic sensors collect real-time motion data, capturing acceleration, angle, and position information at high frequency, which is then transmitted to a device.

[1128] 2. Preprocessing by the terminal

[1129] The device performs noise reduction and data normalization on the raw data received from the sensors. Denoising is done to remove outliers and unnecessary data, and normalization is done to put the data into a consistent format, making it suitable for analysis by generative artificial intelligence.

[1130] 3. Data analysis by the server

[1131] The preprocessed data is sent to a server and input into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model). The model analyzes the user's movements to detect inappropriate behavior and danger. For example, it can predict the risk of falling based on the movement of the feet while walking.

[1132] 4. Emotion Recognition by Emotion Engine

[1133] The server's emotion engine uses data acquired from the camera and microphone to analyze the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state in real time, for example, detecting anxiety or irritation.

[1134] 5. Instruction Generation and Notification

[1135] Based on the analysis results of the generative AI and the recognition results of the emotion engine, the server generates instructions to give to the user. These instructions are sent to the device in real time, and the device conveys the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to take appropriate action immediately.

[1136] Specific examples

[1137] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[1138] "Prompt: The user is walking with a prosthetic leg and has become unsteady on their feet. The sensor detects this information and sends it to the device. The generative AI analyzes this data and detects the risk of falling. If anxiety is recognized from the user's facial expression, generate appropriate instructions."

[1139] An example of a generated instruction might be: "Danger of falling. Please slowly regain your balance."

[1140] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[1141] "Prompt: The user performed an inappropriate action while lifting an object with the prosthetic arm. The sensor detected this information and sent it to the device. The generative AI analyzed this data and detected the inappropriate action. If frustration is detected in the user's tone of voice, generate appropriate instructions."

[1142] An example of a generated instruction would be: "Inappropriate behavior. Please calm down and try again."

[1143] By using this system, users can receive appropriate instructions and psychological support in real time, thereby improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[1144] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[1145] Step 1:

[1146] Sensors collect user movement data in real time.

[1147] Input: The user's prosthetic arm or leg movements

[1148] Movement: Accelerometer and gyroscope sensors measure your movement at a rate of 50 times per second.

[1149] Output: Raw data (foot angle, position information, etc.)

[1150] Step 2:

[1151] The device preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors.

[1152] Input: Raw data from the sensor

[1153] What it does: It removes noise and normalizes the data, eliminating outliers and scaling the data range to 0-1.

[1154] Output: Preprocessed data

[1155] Step 3:

[1156] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[1157] Input: Preprocessed data

[1158] How it works: Sends data using an HTTP POST request.

[1159] Output: Preprocessed data arriving at the server

[1160] Step 4:

[1161] The server analyzes the preprocessed data using generative artificial intelligence.

[1162] Input: Preprocessed data

[1163] Behavior: Data is fed into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model) to detect inappropriate behavior and danger.

[1164] Output: Analysis results (e.g., whether there is a risk of falling)

[1165] Step 5:

[1166] The server's emotion engine recognizes the user's emotional state in real time.

[1167] Input: Data from camera and microphone (facial expressions, tone of voice)

[1168] How it works: Recognizes emotional states using facial expression recognition and audio tone analysis algorithms.

[1169] Output: Emotion recognition result (e.g., anxiety, irritation)

[1170] Step 6:

[1171] The server generates instructions based on the analysis results and emotion recognition results.

[1172] Input: Analysis results, emotion recognition results

[1173] Action: The analysis results are combined with the emotion recognition results to generate instructions such as "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture."

[1174] Output: Generated instructions

[1175] Step 7:

[1176] The server sends the generated instructions to the terminal.

[1177] Input: Generated instructions

[1178] Operation: Sends instructions to the device in real time using WebSocket.

[1179] Output: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[1180] Step 8:

[1181] The device notifies the user of the instructions.

[1182] Input: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[1183] Operation: Instructions are displayed on the device screen and communicated aloud through the speaker.

[1184] Output: Instructions to the user

[1185] In this way, the processing flow of the entire system is realized by a chain of specific operations and their inputs and outputs at each step.

[1186] (Application example 2)

[1187] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the headset type terminal 314 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1188] While conventional systems can monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, they are unable to provide psychological support based on the user's emotional state. Furthermore, particularly in factory robot operating environments, there is a need for emotion analysis and appropriate instructions to reduce worker stress and anxiety, in addition to the ability to detect inappropriate movements and dangers.

[1189] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[1190] In this invention, the server includes means for preprocessing motion data received from the bionic sensor, means for using generative artificial intelligence to analyze the preprocessed motion data and detect inappropriate motion or danger, means for using an emotion engine to analyze emotional information such as the user's facial expression and voice, and means for providing instructions to the user based on the results of the motion analysis by the generative artificial intelligence and the results of the emotion analysis by the emotion engine. This not only improves the safety and efficiency of workers in the operating environment of factory robots, but also reduces the psychological burden on workers and provides a comfortable working environment.

[1209] First, a bionic sensor detects the user's movements in real time. Next, the device preprocesses the movement data received from the sensor, removing noise and normalizing the data. This preprocessed data is sent to a server where a generative AI analyzes it. Based on the analysis results, inappropriate movements and dangers are detected. Furthermore, an emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice fluctuations to recognize the user's emotional state. Finally, appropriate instructions are generated based on the movement analysis results by the generative AI and the emotion analysis results by the emotion engine, and the instructions are communicated to the user via notification means.

[1210] Hardware and Software

[1211] Bionic sensors: devices for detecting user movements

[1212] Terminal: A device that preprocesses data and sends it to the server.

[1213] Server: A server equipped with generative artificial intelligence and emotion engine using TensorFlow and Keras libraries.

[1214] Notification method: Uses the pyttsx3 library for audio output and the display device for visual display

[1215] Specific examples

[1216] Example 1: Detecting dangerous behavior

[1217] If a worker adopts an improper posture while using a robotic arm to lift a heavy object, a bionic sensor detects this. The data sent from the sensor is preprocessed on the terminal to remove noise and normalize it. It is then sent to the server, where generative artificial intelligence detects dangerous movements. At the same time, an emotion engine analyzes the worker's facial expressions and voice and recognizes that his emotional state is unstable. Based on this information, an instruction is generated: "It's dangerous. Please slowly correct your posture." This is communicated to the worker through visual displays and audio notifications.

[1218] Example 2: Fixing improper behavior

[1219] If a worker makes an inappropriate move when using the robotic arm to lift an object, and the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the worker's tone of voice, it generates a message saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the terminal. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[1220] This improves the safety and efficiency of workers in a factory robot operation environment, reduces psychological stress, and provides a comfortable working environment.

[1221] The system can use prompts such as "Dangerous. Please slowly correct your position" or "Inappropriate movement. Please calm down and try again."

[1272] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, motion data preprocessing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means to monitor, analyze, and provide appropriate instructions to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time.

[1273] System Overview

[1274] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, and a terminal that notifies the user.

[1275] First, sensors detect the user's movements in real time. The sensors capture specific movements, such as walking or lifting, and transmit the data to a device. For example, a sensor collects information on the angle and position of the user's foot while walking with a prosthetic leg.

[1276] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data. The preprocessed data is then sent to a server and input into the generative artificial intelligence.

[1277] The server then analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). Based on the analysis results, it detects improper behavior and risk of falling. From this analysis, it generates instructions to provide to the user.

[1278] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the terminal, which provides the instructions to the user by visual display (e.g., on-screen text message) or audio notification.

[1279] Specific examples

[1280] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[1281] If a user's foot becomes unstable while walking using a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server analyzes it using generative artificial intelligence and recognizes that there is a high risk of falling. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture," and the user is notified via the device. The notification is displayed as a text message on the screen and a voice message is broadcast at the same time.

[1282] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[1283] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic arm, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device removes noise, normalizes the data, and then sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects that the movement is inappropriate. As a result, an instruction is generated saying, "The movement is inappropriate. Please check again," and the user is notified via the device. This is also communicated to the user via a screen display and voice message.

[1284] In this way, this system can significantly improve the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly by analyzing the user's movements in real time and providing appropriate instructions quickly.

[1285] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1286] Step 1:

[1287] A user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg. For example, consider a situation in which a user walks with a prosthetic leg.

[1288] Step 2:

[1289] The sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect specific movement data (for example, foot angle and position information over time).

[1290] Step 3:

[1291] The sensors collect and transmit motion data, including real-time location and angle data, to the device.

[1292] Step 4:

[1293] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, which includes denoising and normalizing the data, converting it into a format that is easier to analyze.

[1294] Step 5:

[1295] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where the data has been denoised and normalised.

[1296] Step 6:

[1297] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model that includes advanced learning algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[1298] Step 7:

[1299] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data, detecting inappropriate movements and dangers from the data. For example, if a walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[1300] Step 8:

[1301] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, including specific content such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[1302] Step 9:

[1303] The server generates instructions and sends them to the terminal. The instructions may be in text or audio format.

[1304] Step 10:

[1305] The terminal notifies the user of the instructions received from the server. Notification methods include displaying a text message on the screen or an audio announcement. For example, the user may be shown a message saying "Danger of falling. Please correct your posture.", and simultaneously notified by an audio message.

[1315] "Generative AI" is a type of AI that has the ability to analyze the data it receives and generate new instructions or results.

[1316] A "recurrent neural network" is a neural network model used to analyze time-series data, and is capable of storing past information and using it in current analysis.

[1317] "Means for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results" refers to a means for issuing instructions to the user to encourage appropriate actions or corrections based on the results of the generative artificial intelligence's analysis of data.

[1318] "Visual display" refers to a method of conveying analytical results or instructions to the user using text or graphics, typically displayed as a message on a screen.

[1319] "Voice notification" is a method of conveying analysis results and instructions to the user by voice, and is provided as a voice message through a speaker or headset.

[1320] The present invention relates to a system that combines bionic sensors, pre-processing means, generative artificial intelligence, and user notification means, and is capable of monitoring, analyzing, and providing appropriate instructions in real time to the movements of physically disabled and elderly people when using prosthetic limbs.

[1451] The preprocessed data is sent from the device to a server, where it is analyzed by a generative artificial intelligence (e.g., a recurrent neural network model). The purpose of the analysis is to detect abnormalities in the driver's biometric information.

[1452] Input: Preprocessed data

[1453] Output: Analysis results (whether anomalies were detected)

[1454] Step 4:

[1455] Generate notifications

[1456] The server generates a notification to the driver based on the analysis results. For example, if the driver's heart rate suddenly rises, it generates a message saying, "An abnormality has been detected. Please take a break immediately."

[1457] Input: Analysis results

[1458] Output: Notification content (message)

[1459] Step 5:

[1460] Sending notifications

[1461] The generated notification is sent to the terminal, which then notifies the driver visually or audibly. Specifically, it is possible to display a message on the display and play an audio message through the speaker.

[1462] Input: Notification content

[1463] Output: Notification to the driver (visual and audio)

[1464] In this way, the system can ensure safety by monitoring the driver's biometric information in real time and immediately notifying the driver if any abnormalities are detected.

[1465] 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.

[1466] The present invention provides a system that combines bionic sensors, a means for preprocessing motion data, generative artificial intelligence, a means for notifying users, and an emotion engine that recognizes users' emotions. This system not only monitors and analyzes the motions of physically disabled or elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time and provides appropriate instructions, but also takes into account the user's emotional state to reduce the psychological burden.

[1467] System Overview

[1468] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[1469] Operation flow

[1470] First, the sensor detects the user's movements in real time. For example, when the user walks with a prosthetic leg, the sensor collects information on the angle and position of the walking leg. The sensor then transmits this movement data to the device.

[1471] The device then preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors, which includes removing noise and normalizing the data, and then sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[1472] On the server, generative AI analyzes the preprocessed data and detects inappropriate behavior or danger. Based on the analysis results, instructions are generated for the user. For example, "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture."

[1473] The generated instructions are sent from the server to the device, which then communicates the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to receive appropriate advice in real time.

[1474] Emotion Engine Operation

[1475] The emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state. The emotion engine utilizes data obtained from sensors, cameras, and microphones. The results of emotion recognition are added as additional information to the behavior analysis results of generative AI.

[1476] Based on the results of the emotion engine, the instructions to the user can be adjusted accordingly. For example, if the user feels anxious about the risk of falling, a message such as "Please walk slowly and calmly" will be generated to reduce the psychological burden.

[1477] Specific examples

[1478] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[1479] If a user makes unsteady movements while walking with a prosthetic leg, a sensor detects this and sends the data to the device in real time. The device then preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes it and detects the risk of falling. If the emotion engine recognizes anxiety from the user's facial expression, it generates an instruction saying, "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture," and notifies the user via the device. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[1480] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[1481] If a user makes an inappropriate movement when lifting an object with their prosthetic hand, a sensor detects this movement and sends the data to the device. The device preprocesses the data and sends it to the server. The server's generative artificial intelligence analyzes the data and detects the inappropriate movement. Furthermore, if the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the user's tone of voice, it generates an instruction saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the device.

[1482] In this way, the system can detect and analyze the user's movements and emotions in real time, and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support, further improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[1483] The processing flow will be explained below.

[1484] Step 1:

[1485] The user performs an action using a prosthetic arm or leg, for example, the user starts walking with the prosthetic leg.

[1486] Step 2:

[1487] Sensors detect the user's movements in real time and collect movement data, such as the angle and position of the feet while walking.

[1488] Step 3:

[1489] The sensors collect motion data and transmit it to the device, including real-time location and angle data.

[1490] Step 4:

[1491] The device preprocesses the raw data received from the sensors, specifically removing noise from the data and normalizing it, making the data easier to analyze.

[1492] Step 5:

[1493] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server, where it is in a denoised and normalized form.

[1494] Step 6:

[1495] The server feeds the preprocessed data into a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model, which uses advanced algorithms such as recurrent neural networks.

[1496] Step 7:

[1497] The server uses generative artificial intelligence to analyze the movement data and detect inappropriate movements or dangers. For example, if the user's walking pattern differs from normal, it will be detected as an abnormality.

[1498] Step 8:

[1499] Based on the analysis results, the server generates instructions for the user, such as "There is a risk of falling. Please correct your posture" or "Your movements are inappropriate. Please check again."

[1500] Step 9:

[1501] The server generates and sends the instructions to the device, which may be in the form of a text or audio file.

[1502] Step 10:

[1503] The terminal notifies the user of the instruction received from the server, for example by displaying a message on the screen and playing a voice message.

[1504] Step 11:

[1505] The device collects the user's facial expressions and tone of voice and inputs them into the emotion engine as emotional data. For example, the device collects the user's reactions through a camera or microphone.

[1506] Step 12:

[1507] The server's emotion engine analyzes the emotion data and recognizes the user's emotional state, for example, determining whether the user is tense or relaxed.

[1508] Step 13:

[1509] Based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, the server adjusts the instructions to correspond to the user's psychological state. For example, if the user is feeling anxious, it generates instructions that give a sense of security.

[1510] Step 14:

[1511] The server then sends the adjusted instructions back to the device, and the device notifies the user. For example, the device displays and speaks the instruction "Please walk slowly and calmly."

[1512] Example 2

[1513] Next, a description will be given of Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1514] Conventional motion assistance systems can monitor a user's motion and provide necessary instructions, but they cannot consider the user's real-time emotional state and lack the ability to reduce psychological stress. This has led to problems such as increased psychological stress when physically disabled people and elderly people use prosthetic limbs. Therefore, the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to reduce psychological stress by recognizing the user's emotional state in real time and adjusting instructions based on that.

[1515] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the second embodiment is realized by the following means.

[1516] In this invention, the server includes a device for preprocessing motion data received from a bionic sensor, a device using generative artificial intelligence to analyze the preprocessed motion data and detect inappropriate motions or dangers, a device for giving instructions to the user based on the analysis results of the generative artificial intelligence, a device for recognizing the emotional state of the user by analyzing the user's facial expressions and tone of voice, a device for adjusting the instructions taking the emotional state into consideration, and a device for notifying the user of the instructions, thereby making it possible to monitor the user's motions and emotions in real time and provide appropriate instructions and psychological support at the same time.

[1517] A "bionic sensor" is a device that detects and measures human movement and physiological data in real time.

[1518] "Motion data" refers to information about the movements, position information, angle information, and other movements when a user uses a prosthetic arm or leg.

[1519] "Preprocessing" is the process of converting raw data received from sensors into a format suitable for analysis by performing processes such as noise removal and normalization.

[1520] "Generative AI" is a machine learning model that analyzes input data and learns and predicts specific patterns and trends. It often uses advanced algorithms, such as recurrent neural networks.

[1521] "Analysis results" are information obtained by generative artificial intelligence analyzing behavioral data, and indicate whether or not there is inappropriate behavior or danger.

[1522] A "device that gives instructions to the user" is a device that provides specific instructions and advice to the user based on the analysis results of generative artificial intelligence.

[1523] "Emotional state" refers to the user's current psychological state and is analyzed based on data such as facial expressions and tone of voice.

[1524] An "emotion engine" is software or algorithm that analyzes a user's facial expressions, tone of voice, etc. to recognize their emotional state.

[1525] "Adjusting the content of instructions" means changing the content of the instructions provided based on the analysis results of the emotion engine, taking into account the user's psychological state.

[1526] "Notification" refers to the act of conveying analysis results or instructions to the user visually or audibly.

[1527] "Real-time" is a term that indicates that sensors and systems instantly recognize the user's actions and emotional state, and then analyze and respond immediately.

[1528] This system combines bionic sensors, a motion data preprocessing device, generative artificial intelligence, a user notification device, and an emotion engine. The system aims to monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, provide appropriate instructions, and reduce the psychological burden by taking into account the user's emotional state.

[1529] The system consists of bionic sensors, terminals, a server equipped with generative artificial intelligence, a terminal that notifies the user, and an emotion engine.

[1530] Hardware and software used

[1531] Sensors: Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Camera, Microphone

[1532] Devices: Mobile devices, tablets, wearable devices

[1533] Server: High-performance computing server, cloud computing platform

[1534] Generative AI model: Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)

[1535] Emotion engine: facial expression recognition algorithm, voice tone analysis algorithm

[1536] Data processing and calculation

[1537] 1. Sensor operation data collection

[1538] As the user uses the prosthetic limb, bionic sensors collect real-time motion data, capturing acceleration, angle, and position information at high frequency, which is then transmitted to a device.

[1539] 2. Preprocessing by the terminal

[1540] The device performs noise reduction and data normalization on the raw data received from the sensors. Denoising is done to remove outliers and unnecessary data, and normalization is done to put the data into a consistent format, making it suitable for analysis by generative artificial intelligence.

[1541] 3. Data analysis by the server

[1542] The preprocessed data is sent to a server and input into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model). The model analyzes the user's movements to detect inappropriate behavior and danger. For example, it can predict the risk of falling based on the movement of the feet while walking.

[1543] 4. Emotion Recognition by Emotion Engine

[1544] The server's emotion engine uses data acquired from the camera and microphone to analyze the user's facial expressions and tone of voice to recognize their emotional state in real time, for example, detecting anxiety or irritation.

[1545] 5. Instruction Generation and Notification

[1546] Based on the analysis results of the generative AI and the recognition results of the emotion engine, the server generates instructions to give to the user. These instructions are sent to the device in real time, and the device conveys the instructions to the user through visual displays and audio notifications, allowing the user to take appropriate action immediately.

[1547] Specific examples

[1548] Example 1: Falling Hazard

[1549] "Prompt: The user is walking with a prosthetic leg and has become unsteady on their feet. The sensor detects this information and sends it to the device. The generative AI analyzes this data and detects the risk of falling. If anxiety is recognized from the user's facial expression, generate appropriate instructions."

[1550] An example of a generated instruction might be: "Danger of falling. Please slowly regain your balance."

[1551] Example 2: Incorrect behavior

[1552] "Prompt: The user performed an inappropriate action while lifting an object with the prosthetic arm. The sensor detected this information and sent it to the device. The generative AI analyzed this data and detected the inappropriate action. If frustration is detected in the user's tone of voice, generate appropriate instructions."

[1553] An example of a generated instruction would be: "Inappropriate behavior. Please calm down and try again."

[1554] By using this system, users can receive appropriate instructions and psychological support in real time, thereby improving the quality of life for the physically disabled and elderly.

[1555] The flow of the identification process in the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

[1556] Step 1:

[1557] Sensors collect user movement data in real time.

[1558] Input: The user's prosthetic arm or leg movements

[1559] Movement: Accelerometer and gyroscope sensors measure your movement at a rate of 50 times per second.

[1560] Output: Raw data (foot angle, position information, etc.)

[1561] Step 2:

[1562] The device preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors.

[1563] Input: Raw data from the sensor

[1564] What it does: It removes noise and normalizes the data, eliminating outliers and scaling the data range to 0-1.

[1565] Output: Preprocessed data

[1566] Step 3:

[1567] The device sends the preprocessed data to the server.

[1568] Input: Preprocessed data

[1569] How it works: Sends data using an HTTP POST request.

[1570] Output: Preprocessed data arriving at the server

[1571] Step 4:

[1572] The server analyzes the preprocessed data using generative artificial intelligence.

[1573] Input: Preprocessed data

[1574] Behavior: Data is fed into a generative artificial intelligence (RNN model) to detect inappropriate behavior and danger.

[1575] Output: Analysis results (e.g., whether there is a risk of falling)

[1576] Step 5:

[1577] The server's emotion engine recognizes the user's emotional state in real time.

[1578] Input: Data from camera and microphone (facial expressions, tone of voice)

[1579] How it works: Recognizes emotional states using facial expression recognition and audio tone analysis algorithms.

[1580] Output: Emotion recognition result (e.g., anxiety, irritation)

[1581] Step 6:

[1582] The server generates instructions based on the analysis results and emotion recognition results.

[1583] Input: Analysis results, emotion recognition results

[1584] Action: The analysis results are combined with the emotion recognition results to generate instructions such as "There is a risk of falling. Please slowly correct your posture."

[1585] Output: Generated instructions

[1586] Step 7:

[1587] The server sends the generated instructions to the terminal.

[1588] Input: Generated instructions

[1589] Operation: Sends instructions to the device in real time using WebSocket.

[1590] Output: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[1591] Step 8:

[1592] The device notifies the user of the instructions.

[1593] Input: Instructions that arrive at the terminal

[1594] Operation: Instructions are displayed on the device screen and communicated aloud through the speaker.

[1595] Output: Instructions to the user

[1596] In this way, the processing flow of the entire system is realized by a chain of specific operations and their inputs and outputs at each step.

[1597] (Application example 2)

[1598] Next, a description will be given of Application Example 2. In the following description, the data processing device 12 will be referred to as a "server" and the robot 414 will be referred to as a "terminal."

[1599] While conventional systems can monitor and analyze the movements of physically disabled and elderly people using prosthetic limbs in real time, they are unable to provide psychological support based on the user's emotional state. Furthermore, particularly in factory robot operating environments, there is a need for emotion analysis and appropriate instructions to reduce worker stress and anxiety, in addition to the ability to detect inappropriate movements and dangers.

[1600] The specific processing by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 in the application example 2 is realized by the following means.

[1601] In this invention, the server includes means for preprocessing motion data received from the bionic sensor, means for using generative artificial intelligence to analyze the preprocessed motion data and detect inappropriate motion or danger, means for using an emotion engine to analyze emotional information such as the user's facial expression and voice, and means for providing instructions to the user based on the results of the motion analysis by the generative artificial intelligence and the results of the emotion analysis by the emotion engine. This not only improves the safety and efficiency of workers in the operating environment of factory robots, but also reduces the psychological burden on workers and provides a comfortable working environment.

[1602] definition statement

[1611] MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[1612] The present invention is a system for improving worker safety and efficiency in a factory robotic operating environment, which combines bionic sensors, a means for pre-processing motion data, generative artificial intelligence, an emotion engine for recognizing user emotions, and a means for notifying the user.

[1613] System Overview

[1614] This system consists of the following components:

[1615] Bionic sensors: Detect the user's physical movements in real time and transmit the data to the device.

[1616] Device: Receives motion data and performs preprocessing such as noise removal and normalization. The preprocessed data is sent to the server.

[1617] Server: Analyzes the pre-processed data using generative artificial intelligence to detect inappropriate behavior and danger. The server also has an emotion engine that analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice.

[1618] Notification method: Based on the analysis results, instructions are given to the user through visual displays and audio notifications.

[1619] Operation flow

[1620] First, a bionic sensor detects the user's movements in real time. Next, the device preprocesses the movement data received from the sensor, removing noise and normalizing the data. This preprocessed data is sent to a server where a generative AI analyzes it. Based on the analysis results, inappropriate movements and dangers are detected. Furthermore, an emotion engine analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice fluctuations to recognize the user's emotional state. Finally, appropriate instructions are generated based on the movement analysis results by the generative AI and the emotion analysis results by the emotion engine, and the instructions are communicated to the user via notification means.

[1621] Hardware and Software

[1622] Bionic sensors: devices for detecting user movements

[1623] Terminal: A device that preprocesses data and sends it to the server.

[1624] Server: A server equipped with generative artificial intelligence and emotion engine using TensorFlow and Keras libraries.

[1625] Notification method: Uses the pyttsx3 library for audio output and the display device for visual display

[1626] Specific examples

[1627] Example 1: Detecting dangerous behavior

[1628] If a worker adopts an improper posture while using a robotic arm to lift a heavy object, a bionic sensor detects this. The data sent from the sensor is preprocessed on the terminal to remove noise and normalize it. It is then sent to the server, where generative artificial intelligence detects dangerous movements. At the same time, an emotion engine analyzes the worker's facial expressions and voice and recognizes that his emotional state is unstable. Based on this information, an instruction is generated: "It's dangerous. Please slowly correct your posture." This is communicated to the worker through visual displays and audio notifications.

[1629] Example 2: Fixing improper behavior

[1630] If a worker makes an inappropriate move when using the robotic arm to lift an object, and the emotion engine recognizes irritation from the worker's tone of voice, it generates a message saying, "Your movement is inappropriate. Please calm down and try again," and notifies the user via the terminal. The notification is displayed on the screen and by voice.

[1631] This improves the safety and efficiency of workers in a factory robot operation environment, reduces psychological stress, and provides a comfortable working environment.

[1632] The system can use prompts such as "Dangerous. Please slowly correct your position" or "Inappropriate movement. Please calm down and try again."

[1633] The flow of the specific processing in the application example 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

[1634] Processing Steps

[1635] Step 1:

[1636] Bionic sensors detect user movements in real time.

[1637] Input: User's physical movements

[1638] Output: Motion data (e.g., foot angle and position information)

[1639] Specific operation: The sensor detects motion data and sends it to the device.

[1640] Step 2:

[1641] The device preprocesses the motion data received from the sensors.

[1642] Input: Motion data received from sensors

[1643] Output: Preprocessed motion data

[1644] Specific operations: Denoise and normalize the data, then format it, and send the preprocessed data to the server.

[1645] Step 3:

[1646] The server analyzes the preprocessed data using generative artificial intelligence.

[1647] Input: Preprocessed motion data

[1648] Output: Results of behavior analysis (e.g., whether there is danger or not, detection of inappropriate behavior)

[1649] Specific behavior: A generative AI model analyzes the behavior data and evaluates the risk. The analysis results are saved.

[1650] Step 4:

[1651] The server analyzes the user's facial expressions and voice using an emotion engine.

[1652] Input: Video and audio data from the camera and microphone

[1653] Output: Sentiment analysis results (e.g., user's emotional state)

[1654] Specific operation: The emotion engine analyzes video and audio data to recognize the user's emotions. The analysis results are saved.

[1655] Step 5:

[1656] The server generates instructions for the user based on the results of motion analysis and emotion analysis.

[1657] Input: Motion analysis results and emotion analysis results

[1658] Output: Instructions (prompt)

[1659] Specific actions: Generative AI combines the results of motion analysis and emotion analysis to generate an appropriate prompt, such as "It's dangerous. Please slowly correct your posture."

[1660] Step 6:

[1661] The server sends instructions to the device, and the device notifies the user.

[1662] Input: Generated prompt statement

[1663] Output: User notification (visual and audio)

[1664] Specific operation: The server sends the generated instructions to the device, and the device communicates the instructions to the user through visual display and audio notification.

[1665] This allows users to receive proper instructions and psychological support regarding their actions in real time, improving safety and efficiency.

[1666] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the control target 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires voice indicating a user input regarding the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits voice data indicating the user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing device 12. In the data processing device 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the voice data.

[1667] 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.

[1668] 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.

[1669] 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.

[1670] 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.

[1671] 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.

[1672] 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).

[1673] 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.

[1674] 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."

[1675] 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.

[1676] 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.

Each processor has built-in or connected memory, and each processor uses the memory to execute the specific process.

[1682] 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.

[1683] 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.

[1684] 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.
