Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a neckband-type wearable device and an activity notification system using the wearable device.

The present invention relates to a neckband-type wearable device and an activity notification system using the same, and more particularly, to a neckband-type wearable device capable of collecting environment information and activity information, The present invention relates to a neckband-type wearable device for providing an activity notification so as to minimize harmfulness of health by warning a harmful environment situation and over activity, and an activity notification system using the same.

As we all know, to live a healthy life or to regain health, but it can hurt health by excessive exercise without knowing it yourself, Is harmful to health. Therefore, it is desirable to avoid such an environment or to carry out the maintenance after maintenance. However, most of them have a problem that they do not know about such harmful environment and harm health.

Also, in the past, a technique has been proposed in which a wearable device is used to sense an abnormality of a health state by sensing a heartbeat or a body temperature, or notifying a danger to another person through a terminal. For example, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2016-0018178 (The name of the invention: a wearable system for health and risk management and its method; hereinafter referred to as a "cited invention").

As shown in FIG. 1, the wearable system for health and risk management of the cited invention measures wearer's body condition information and is wirelessly charged through a wireless charging module 141 in a completely waterproof state, A wearable device 100 in the form of a chest or bracelet that communicates wirelessly through the module 130; The wearable device 100 is installed in the smartphone 200 and communicates with the wearable device 100 via Bluetooth to receive the physical status information, compares the received physical status information with a set value to determine a risk, and notifies the mobile communication terminal 300 of the administrator A health management application 210 that performs the health management application 210 shown in FIG.

Such a cited invention is that wearable device 100 is configured in the form of a stretchable chest or bracelet so that it can be easily worn by young, infant or elderly person, and analyzes the physical condition information transmitted from healthcare app 210, It is possible to judge and notify the state and thus it is possible to manage the health and the risk of the infant, the infant or the elderly who can keep his or her health and can not eliminate the dangerous state.

However, the wearable device 100 in the form of a chest strap or a bracelet having such elasticity has to be worn directly on the skin to measure the user's physical condition information, and the wearable portion is pressed due to elasticity, It is difficult to judge the risk from the user's environment. Moreover, since the cited invention judges the danger only by the user's physical condition information, Since the device itself is hidden by clothes or the like, there is a problem in collecting information on the user's surrounding environment.
