Solution Overview

Problem

Existing biological information management systems fail to accurately transmit user-condition data as they do not allow messages created by users to be sent alongside measured data, leading to incomplete user condition determination.

Innovation Solution

A biological information management system comprising a first and second information processing apparatus that enables biological information to be transmitted together with user-created messages, allowing for accurate user condition assessment by integrating biological information obtaining, message creation, and transmission capabilities.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If biological information is transmitted to a server through automatic dialing once a day, then the transmission process is simple, but the measured data cannot be transmitted at a timing desired by a user and any message created by the user cannot be transmitted together with the measured data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser-friendly transmission timingVSAvoidtransmission system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The transmission timing is made dynamic and flexible, allowing users to transmit biological information at any desired time rather than being fixed to automatic daily dialing. The system enables on-demand transmission initiated by users through input operations, adapting the transmission schedule to user needs while maintaining system functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system merges the transmission of biological information with user-created messages into a single integrated transmission process. When a user creates a message and executes the transmission operation, both the message and associated biological information are combined and transmitted together to the server, ensuring complete data delivery.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Measurement precision

If only step count data is transmitted to the server, then the transmission process is simple, but it is difficult to accurately determine the condition of a user

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser condition determination accuracyVSAvoiduser condition information completeness
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The transmission system is designed to handle multiple types of data uniformly. It can transmit not only biological information from measuring apparatuses but also user-created messages and other relevant data. This multi-functional approach ensures that comprehensive user condition information is captured and transmitted, enabling accurate determination of user status.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by obtaining biological information from measuring apparatuses before the user creates a message. This ensures that all relevant biological data is ready and can be automatically attached to the message during transmission, preventing any loss of information and ensuring complete user condition data is transmitted to the server.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A healthcare professional terminal 90 creates a question message based on an input operation of a healthcare professional, and transmits the question message to a game apparatus 12. The game apparatus 12 creates, based on an input operation of a healthcare recipient, an answer message including an answer to a question contained in the question message received from the healthcare professional terminal 90, and transmits the answer message to the healthcare professional terminal 90 together with automatically obtained biological information (weight data, exercise time data, and step count data) of the healthcare recipient.
