Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a sensory sports platform. Background Technology
[0003] With the advancement of science, medical technology has improved and living standards have risen, extending the average human lifespan and leading to an aging population.
[0004] Accordingly, the focus of human life is shifting from merely living a long time to a qualitatively improved lifestyle of living a long and healthy life. However, the aging society is generating new problems, and geriatric diseases are increasing significantly, particularly due to a lack of preparation for old age, inadequate health management, and insufficient awareness.
[0005] When health problems arise, adaptability to the surrounding environment decreases, and ultimately, the quality of life can significantly decline. Along with this, social burdens such as increased medical and support costs for the elderly also increase.
[0006] As aging progresses, cognitive functions, including memory, learning, perception, reasoning, and problem-solving, may gradually decline. This decline in cognitive abilities can lead to difficulties in carrying out normal daily life. Furthermore, it can result in severe geriatric mental disorders.
[0007] Cognitive impairment, along with memory decline, can be considered a distinctive characteristic of depression in old age. Depression is also a mental disorder that frequently occurs in the elderly, with approximately 15% of the global elderly population reported to experience depressive symptoms. The elderly develop these symptoms due to a sense of loss resulting from their children's independence and reduced social roles, decreased economic income, the death of family and friends, and changes in the social atmosphere.
[0008] While regular exercise can be recommended as a helpful measure, the lack of physical activity among the elderly is significantly more severe than in the youth or middle-aged populations.
[0009] As is already known through numerous research papers, exercise programs for the elderly can slow the rate of physical decline, thereby maintaining and improving physical fitness. Furthermore, they are beneficial not only in physical aspects, such as increasing muscle strength and enhancing joint flexibility, but also in psychological and mental health and quality of life by alleviating symptoms of anxiety and depression.
[0010] A three-year follow-up study of a healthy elderly population found that while combining cognitive and physical activities is beneficial for reducing the risk of mild cognitive impairment and dementia, physical activity is more important than cognitive activity to further lower the risk.
[0011] Korean Patent Publication No. 2022-0114936 discloses a technology that induces an elderly user to perform exercises related to standing and walking according to a StepUp program and monitors the movements. Prior art literature

Effects of the invention
[0072] The wall device of the present invention can provide a smart platform that allows elderly people to engage in light physical activity while simultaneously performing cognitive activities.
[0073] Although AR or VR devices are widely used as products for immersive sports programs for the elderly, there is a problem of low accessibility due to dizziness during use and complex operation methods.
[0074] Smart devices that enhance cognitive activity mostly feature game-oriented programs centered around touch screens on tables, and there are no products that induce physical activity.
[0075] The wall device of the present invention can provide an environment where users, such as the elderly, can operate it simply and easily without resistance, and where exercise results can be checked immediately.
[0076] The wall device of the present invention may include a motion wall, a terminal, and a management server.
[0077] A motion wall is an exercise device equipped with LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) of various colors on a top plate or main plate and a reaction unit that detects a user's touch or motion, for example, it can be configured to detect the user turning off the LED lights. Twelve reaction units may be installed on the exercise device.
[0078] The terminal can communicate with the motion wall using a Bluetooth communication network.
[0079] To enable users to perform immersive exercise, multiple types of exercise-related content programs can be installed on the motion wall itself or on the terminal.
[0080] Each program may be provided with instructions on usage and an exercise execution (start) button (in the form of a menu displayed on the touchscreen). When the user presses the start button, a light of a designated color may turn on at the reaction part of the exercise equipment according to the operation method set in the program. The user may touch a specific reaction part that has turned on among multiple reaction parts, or block its path with their body. The touch or blocking motion is acquired as motion information by various sensors, and this motion information can function as a command to turn off the light.
[0081] The collection of motion information reflecting the user's physical activity may proceed for a set period of time. Once the set period has elapsed, the wall device may display exercise results through a display provided on the motion wall or terminal. Additionally, the wall device may provide a menu for viewing past exercise history.
[0082] Exercise history corresponding to past exercise results may be stored on a motion wall or terminal, or on a remote management server, for example, in the cloud AWS (Amazon Web Services).
[0083] The wall device can extract exercise history stored in the motion wall or terminal and display it on the display upon a user's request. Alternatively, the wall device can send a message to the management server requesting the transmission of the user's exercise history.
[0084] The management server can receive and store the operation history of the reaction unit of the motion wall from the wall device. Alternatively, the management server can receive and store only the analysis results from the wall device that analyzed the operation history of the reaction unit.
[0085] In addition, when the management server receives a request for past exercise history from the monthly device, it can extract the relevant exercise history and transmit it to the monthly device.
[0086] Past exercise history transmitted to the wall device can be displayed via the motion wall or terminal.
[0087] The motion wall can be formed into a wall shape.
[0088] Twelve reaction parts that the user can visually detect and touch through light movements may be formed on the front of the motion wall facing the user. The reaction parts may be formed protruding from the front of the motion wall in the shape of convex lenses with a diameter of approximately 10 cm. The twelve reaction parts may be arranged within a rectangular section measuring 2 meters in width and 1 meter in height on the front of the motion wall.
[0089] The reaction unit may include a main board equipped with a circuit for operating a light source, and a cover made of a transparent material that covers the main board and a light source such as an LED.
[0090] An elastic means may be additionally provided to movably support the cover in order to provide a touch sensation when a user touches the reaction part. The main board and the light source may be housed in a cylindrical body. The body may be fixed to a frame forming the skeleton of the motion wall or to a main plate forming the front of the motion wall. Alternatively, the body may be fixed to a separate installation rod protruding from the frame. In this state, an elastic means, such as a spring, may be provided, with one end fixed to the body. The other end of the elastic means may be connected to the cover.
[0091] According to this, the cover can be elastically movably connected to the body along the extension direction of the elastic means.
[0092] The cover can move away from the body by means of the elastic force of the elastic means. At this time, to prevent the cover from detaching from the body, the body or the cover may be provided with a stopper that prevents the cover from moving more than a set distance away from the end of the body.
[0093] When a user touches a cover that has stopped at a point protruding a set distance from the end of the body by a stopper, the elastic force of the elastic means yields due to the touching force, and the cover can move in a direction closer to the body. At this time, a reaction force that overcomes the elastic force is applied to the user, and through this reaction force, the user can feel a touch sensation.
[0094] In addition, the reaction part may be provided with a push button bracket that supports the cover and performs the function of a stopper, a push button intermediate body, a push button base body, a fixing nut, a switch component, etc. Additionally, a touch sensor or a laser sensor, etc., may be additionally provided on the main board.
[0095] A power supply unit that provides driving power for a light source and a sensor may be additionally mounted in the reaction section.
[0096] The user can turn on the power button of the motion wall. This allows the reactive unit to receive driving power and enter a ready state to emit light or detect the user's motion.
[0097] The wall device can be mounted on any one of a terminal, a motion wall, or a management server.
[0098] An example of a case where a wall device is installed in a terminal is as follows.
[0099] The terminal's wall device can communicate via Bluetooth with the motion wall's response unit.
[0100] When it is confirmed through communication with the motion wall that the motion wall is in an operational state, the wall device can display a selection menu on the terminal's display that allows selecting a type of exercise. Multiple types of exercise can be displayed alternately on the display through a touch gesture of swiping the display left and right using a finger.
[0101] When a user selects a specific type of exercise, guide information, such as how to perform the exercise, may be displayed on the screen. The guide information or selection menu may include an execution menu, such as a start exercise button.
[0102] When an execution menu is selected by the user, driving information matching the corresponding movement can be transmitted to the response part of the motion wall.
[0103] The reaction part that receives driving information emits light and can induce the user to touch the emitting reaction part.
[0104] When a user touches or covers the corresponding response part with their hand, the motion can be detected by the response part. The detection result of the response part can be transmitted to a terminal device via a wireless communication network.
[0105] The terminal's wall device can analyze the user's exercise results through the analysis of motion information corresponding to the detection result of the reaction unit received from the reaction unit.
[0106] The analysis results can be displayed through the terminal's display. Additionally, the detection results from the response unit or the exercise results analyzed by the wall device are transmitted to the management server. This stored information can serve as exercise history that the user can view in the future.
[0107] The wall device can request the management server to transmit the relevant exercise history upon a user's request. When the exercise history is transmitted from the management server that received the request, the wall device can display the exercise history on the terminal's display.

[0118] FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a wall device (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing a system in which the wall device (100) of the present invention can be mounted.
[0119] The wall device (100) illustrated in FIG. 1 may include an acquisition unit (110), a display unit (150), a providing unit (170), and a control unit (130).
[0120] The acquisition unit (110) can acquire the type of exercise selected by the user.
[0121] For example, when the acquisition unit (110) receives driving power, it can provide a guide menu indicating the type of exercise on a preset display (229).
[0122] When a specific type of exercise is selected by a user, the acquisition unit (110) can acquire selection information including the type of exercise selected by the user from a device equipped with a display (229). The device equipped with the display (229) may be a user's terminal (220) or a wall-shaped motion wall (210) in which a reaction unit (350) corresponding to an exercise device is installed.
[0123] The display unit (150) can display guide information that matches the type of exercise selected by the user. For example, the display unit (150) can extract guide information that matches the selected information from among a plurality of guide information and provide the extracted guide information to the display (229). The guide information is visually displayed through the display (229), and the user can recognize how to perform the exercise through the display (229).
[0124] The providing unit (170) can provide driving information that matches the type of exercise to the motion wall (210).
[0125] The providing unit (170) can generate driving information based on the user's selection information obtained through the acquiring unit (110).
[0126] The driving information may include the operation sequence of a plurality of reaction units (350) provided in the motion wall (210) or the operation method.
[0127] For example, it is assumed that the type of exercise selected by the user is an exercise in which the right arm is shaken back and forth and rotated in a clockwise direction. And, it is assumed that the reaction part (350) is provided in multiple equal intervals on the circumference.
[0128] In this case, to induce a user's movement that matches the above movement, a first reaction part (350), a second reaction part (350), a third reaction part (350),... may be arranged in order along a clockwise direction on the circumference.
[0129] At this time, the driving information may include a command to keep the remaining reaction unit (350) in a non-emitting state and to emit only the first reaction unit (350).
[0130] Additionally, the driving information may include a command to de-illuminate the touched first reaction unit (350) and de-illuminate the second reaction unit (350) when the first reaction unit (350) is touched by a user. Likewise, the driving information may include a command to de-illuminate the touched second reaction unit (350) and de-illuminate the third reaction unit (350) when the second reaction unit (350) that is emitting light is touched by a user.
[0131] According to the driving information, the reaction unit (350) can emit light in a clockwise direction in accordance with the user's touch motion. When all movements of the reaction unit (350) are completed, the user can be in a state of performing a movement of rotating the arm in a clockwise direction while shaking the arm back and forth (which is a movement for touching the reaction unit (350)).
[0132] The reaction unit (350) can transmit motion information indicating the user's touch time to the control unit (130).
[0133] The control unit (130) can analyze motion information obtained from the motion wall (210).
[0134] The control unit (130) can analyze the user's exercise results based on the analysis results. For example, the control unit (130) can arrange the touch times obtained from each reaction unit (350) in a chronological order together with the corresponding reaction unit (350). Then, the control unit (130) can identify the action taken by the user by connecting the touched reaction units (350) in sequence according to the time order. In the above embodiment, if the user has touched all the reaction units (350) without omission, the user's action can be analyzed by the control unit (130) as an exercise of rotating the arm in a clockwise direction.
[0135] The control unit (130) can extract exercise result values corresponding to the correct answer for the type of exercise selected by the user, and compare the extracted correct answer with the exercise results analyzed for the user. The control unit (130) can score the comparison results and display the score on the display (229).
[0136] The wall device (100) of the present invention can be mounted on a motion wall (210), a terminal (220), or a management server (230).
[0137] FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view showing a motion wall (210) according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a motion wall (210) according to one embodiment of the present invention.
[0138] The motion wall (210) may be provided with a driving unit, a sensing unit, and a wall communication unit.
[0139] The driving unit can operate a guiding means that induces a user's motion according to driving information transmitted from the providing unit (170). For example, the guiding means may include a light source that emits light. The guiding means may be provided at various locations on the motion wall (210). If only one of the multiple guiding means emits light, the user can naturally recognize that they need to touch the guiding means that emits light and perform a touch action.
[0140] The sensing unit can detect the user's motion. For example, the sensing unit may include a touch sensor (351) that detects the user's body contact. Alternatively, the sensing unit may detect whether a part of the user's body is present on the optical axis using various types of light, such as a laser. A result value obtained by blocking the light of the sensing unit using a part of the body or a touch result value obtained by the sensing unit is output from the sensing unit, and the result value can be used as motion information representing the user's motion.
[0141] The communication unit can transmit the detected user motion information to the acquisition unit (110) and at the same time transmit the type of motion information included in the driving information to the acquisition unit (110).
[0142] According to the wall communication unit, the acquisition unit (110) can acquire motion information along with motion type information. The motion type information may be the same as the information provided to the motion wall (210) by the existing providing unit (170).
[0143] The motion wall (210) can be operated by the first driving information generated by the user's first selection. If the user performs a second selection of a different type of exercise while the operation of the motion wall (210) is not yet completed, second driving information matching the second selection can be provided to the motion wall (210) by the providing unit (170).
[0144] In this case, a problem may arise regarding how to process the user's first motion information that was detected through the motion wall (210) until the second driving information is reached.
[0145] The first motion information is based on the first driving information and may be treated as useless information when changed to the second driving information.
[0146] However, the present invention may adopt a method of providing first motion information to the user. At this time, the first motion information may be received back into the wall device (100) through the acquisition unit (110) and transmitted to the control unit (130). From the perspective of the control unit (130), a method is required to determine whether the first motion information received in this manner is due to the existing first driving information or to the newly changed second driving information. To this end, in this embodiment, information on the type of motion including the driving rod may be transmitted to the acquisition unit (110) together with the detected user's motion information.
[0147] According to the present embodiment, the control unit (130) can clearly distinguish whether the motion information received from the acquisition unit (110) is due to the first driving information or the second driving information.
[0148] The motion wall (210) may be provided with a frame (310), a plate (380), and a reaction part (350).
[0149] The reaction unit (350) may include an induction means and a sensing means. The sensing means may include the sensing unit described above.
[0150] The frame (310) may include a plurality of columns erected on the ground and a crossbar connecting each column.
[0151] The plate (380) can cover the crossbar and the column and at least one.
[0152] The guiding means may be installed on the frame (310). Alternatively, the guiding means may be installed on an installation rod (320) formed to protrude from the frame (310).
[0153] The induction means may be installed on the main plate (330) covering the front of the frame (310). An installation hole (339) may be formed in the main plate (330) to which the body (355) of the induction means or reaction part (350) is installed.
[0154] The guidance means may display visual information, auditory information, or tactile information based on driving information. As an example, the guidance means may include a light source that generates light.
[0155] The sensing means can be formed integrally with the induction means.
[0156] The sensing means can detect that the induction means is touched or detect movement of a user on a sensing axis. For example, the sensing means may include a touch sensor (351) or a laser sensor (352).
[0157] A touch or user movement detected by a sensing means may be provided to a control unit (130) as motion information. For example, motion information may be acquired through an acquisition unit (110) and transmitted to a control unit (130) by the acquisition unit (110).
[0158] The motion wall (210) may be provided with a reaction unit (350) that operates according to driving information and generates motion information.

FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram showing guide information displayed through a display (229). FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram showing an execution menu and exercise results displayed through a display (229).
[0160] The reaction unit (350) may include a body (355), a cover (353), a touch sensor (351), and a laser sensor (352).
[0161] The body (355) can be formed in a cylindrical shape.
[0162] The cover (353) is formed in the shape of a convex lens and can cover the upper surface of the body (355).
[0163] The cover (353) may include a transparent material.
[0164] A light source that emits light according to driving information may be installed in the internal space of the body (355) facing the cover (353).
[0165] The touch sensor (351) can be formed in a disc shape in the center of the cover (353) on a flat surface.
[0166] The touch sensor (351) can detect physical contact with the user or pressure applied by the user.
[0167] The laser sensor (352) can be installed in the center of the touch sensor (351) on a flat surface.
