A device for detecting a sleeping state that judges a sleeping state of a subject includes a brain activity measuring unit that measures an index which reflects brain activities and which indicates an extent of changes in an activity state of a brain of the subject during sleeping at every given unit time; and a sleeping state judging unit that judges the sleeping state at a given time in a time window which covers one cycle of sleeping, based on the index which reflects the brain activities and which is measured by the brain activity measuring unit at every given unit time within the time window.
摘要:
A wearable life support apparatus worn by a user is disclosed. A physiological information acquirement unit acquires the user's physiological information. An action information acquirement unit acquires the user's action information. A status recognition unit recognizes the user's status in accordance with the action information. A physiological information decision unit decides whether the physiological information is normal in accordance with the user's status. A presentation unit presents the decision result of the physiological information decision unit to the user.
摘要:
A biotic sleep state determining apparatus that determines a sleep state of a subject based on a series of pulse interval data that indicate a time interval of one cycle of a pulse wave of the subject, and on body movement data that indicates a body movement of the subject, the apparatus includes a body movement determining unit that determines that the body movement occurs if a fluctuation amount of the body movement data is greater than a first predetermined threshold, a pulse interval data processor that processes the series of pulse interval data after removing pulse interval data measured in parallel with the body movement data from the series of pulse interval data, if the body movement determining unit determines that the body movement occurs, and a sleep state determining unit that determines the sleep state based on autonomic nerve indexes acquired from the series of pulse interval data processed by the pulse interval data processor.
摘要:
A bio-information measuring includes a detector including a light source emitting light to a hand of an examinee and an optical receiver receiving the light emitted from the light source; and a supporter bent to clamp a paddle between fingers of the examinee. The clamping portion of the supporter is provided with the detector. The bio-information measuring apparatus also includes a measurer worn on the examinee, measuring bio-information based on pulse wave data obtained from the optical receiver; and a puller pulling the support member toward the measurer.
摘要:
In a multimedia information collection control apparatus, a multimedia information collection unit collects information from more than one kind of medium (multimedia). A multimedia correspondence memory correspondingly stores multimedia information collected by the multimedia information collection unit. An information recognition unit recognizes the multimedia information stored in the multimedia correspondence memory and analyzes the multimedia information as personal data according to the recognition result. A multimedia database relationally stores the multimedia information as the personal data analyzed by the information recognition unit.
摘要:
An embodiment of an apparatus for speech recognition includes a speech input unit configured to acquire acoustic signal, a first recognition unit configured to recognize the acoustic signal, a communication unit configured to communicate with an external server, a second recognition unit configured to recognize the acoustic signal by utilizing the external server via the communication unit, and a remote signal input unit configured to acquire a control signal from a remote controller. The switching unit is configured to switch between the first recognition unit and the second recognition unit for recognizing the acoustic signal in response to a start trigger. The switching unit selects the second recognition unit when the start trigger is detected from the control signal, and the switching unit selects the first recognition unit when the start trigger is detected from the acoustic signal.
摘要:
A voice recognition search apparatus includes: a dictionary create unit creating a first voice recognition dictionary from a search subject data; a voice acquisition unit acquiring first and second voices; a voice recognition unit creating first and second text data by recognizing the first and second voices using the first and second voice recognition dictionaries; a first search unit searching the search subject data by the first text data; and a second search unit searching a search result of the first search unit by the second text data.
摘要:
A pulse wave measuring apparatus includes a sensor unit, a light emitting unit provided on the sensor unit and configured to emit light to a target region that is a body part of a subject, a light receiving unit provided on the sensor unit and configured to receive the light reflected from the target region to generate a received light signal that represents a change in blood flow in the target region, a measuring unit having a principal surface, holding the sensor unit on the principal surface and configured to measure a pulse wave of the subject, from the change in blood flow in the target region, a belt being expandable and configured to wrap around the target region to hold the measuring unit, with the principle surface facing the target region, and an elastic member arranged on the principle surface to surround the sensor unit.
摘要:
A thermal sensation determining apparatus includes a skin temperature detecting unit configured to detect a skin temperature of a peripheral site of a subject's body, a variation state determining unit configured to determine a variation state of the skin temperature during a first interval to obtain a variation state determination result, a gradient detecting unit configured to detect a gradient of the skin temperature during a second interval to determine the gradient to obtain a gradient detection result, and a thermal sensation determining unit configured to determine the subject's thermal sensation using the variation state determination result and the gradient detection result to obtain a thermal sensation determination result classified into levels ranging from “hot” to “cold” based on a “moderate” temperature.
