Abstract:
Disclosed is a method and system for analyzing stress and managing stress by using a mobile electronic apparatus and a data management server. The method includes: generating bio-signal pattern information upon periodically receiving a bio-signal from a bio-signal measuring device connected to each of a plurality of unspecified individuals, and forming reference information for stress analysis based on received answers to each of a plurality of questions for checking a stress level; receiving bio-signal pattern information from a bio-signal measuring device connected to a specified user; and determining a stress level corresponding to the bio-signal pattern information of the specified user based on the reference information.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus are provided for measuring a change in blood pressure caused by respiration control. A number of respirations per minute is measured based on a heart rate when a respiration exercise begins. Respiration of a subject is induced until the number of respirations per minute reaches a predetermined number of respirations per minute. A pulse transit time is calculated during the respiration exercise, a blood pressure value associated with the pulse transit time is calculated, and the blood pressure value is outputted.
Abstract:
Provided are a wearable device and a method for controlling the same. The wearable device may include a distance sensor unit configured to output a first signal for determining a distance between a user and the wearable device and to receive the first signal reflected from the user. The wearable device may also include a biometric sensor unit configured to output a second signal for determining biometric information of the user and to receive the second signal reflected from the user, and a controller configured to determine the distance based on the received first signal and to obtain the biometric information of the user based on a change in an attribute of the received second signal. The controller may control the biometric sensor unit to output the second signal if the determined distance is equal to or less than a reference distance.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for easily and accurately measuring a biological signal by using a wristwatch-type measurement module. After a band of the wristwatch-type measurement module is tightened to wear on a user's wrist, the band is further tightened to make the wristwatch-type measurement module closely contact the user's wrist. An operation mode of the wristwatch-type measurement module closely contacting the user's wrist is switched from a normal mode to a measurement mode, and a user's biological signal is measured from the user's wrist through the wristwatch-type measurement module in the measurement mode. The user's biological signal is then displayed through the wristwatch-type measurement module.
Abstract:
A biometric information measurement device is provided. The device includes a substrate unit including components required for operation of the biometric information measurement device, and electrodes for measuring biometric information. The components and the electrodes are disposed on a single side of the substrate unit. The device also includes a case having a first surface and a second surface. The first surface is attached to an attachment pad for attaching the biometric information measurement device to a body, and the second surface faces the single side of the substrate unit. The electrodes are each exposed through respective openings in the first surface.
Abstract:
An electronic device for enhancing accuracy of a contactless body temperature measurement is provided. The electronic device includes a camera module for determining whether an image of an object is in focus, a temperature sensor for measuring a temperature of the object, and a processor for determining, as a temperature of the object, a temperature output from the temperature sensor corresponding to a focus matching time as a result of determining whether the image of the object is in focus.
Abstract:
