The specific method for realizing the respiration sensor combining the ultrasonic technology and the infrared technology comprises the following steps:
1. design and implementation of ultrasonic sensor
Transmitting ultrasonic signals: ultrasonic waves of a specific frequency are emitted by an ultrasonic transmitter.
Receiving a reflected signal: an ultrasonic receiver is used to capture ultrasonic reflected signals caused by respiratory motion (e.g., up and down movements of the chest).
Processing and analyzing the signals: the depth and frequency information of the breath is obtained by analyzing the time difference or frequency change between the transmitted and received signals and calculating the displacement of the chest.
2. Design and implementation of infrared sensor
Emitting infrared rays: infrared emitters are used to emit infrared light toward a target area.
Detecting reflected infrared rays: the reflected infrared signals are captured by an infrared receiver or a camera, so that the body surface temperature change and the up-and-down movement information of the chest are obtained.
Data analysis: by analyzing the intensity and distribution of infrared rays, respiration-related body surface temperature changes and chest movement information are obtained.
3. Data fusion and processing
Synchronous data acquisition: it is ensured that the data acquisition of the two sensors (ultrasound and infrared) is synchronized for further data fusion and analysis.
Data fusion algorithm: data from both sensors is integrated together using one or more data fusion algorithms (e.g., a Kalman filter, neural network, etc.) to obtain more accurate respiration information.
Calculating respiratory parameters: the fused data is analyzed through an algorithm, and related respiratory parameters (such as respiratory rate, respiratory depth and the like) are calculated.
4. Displaying and/or storing results
And (3) data display: the calculated breathing parameters are displayed in real time, and visual feedback is provided for a user or doctor.
And (3) data storage: the breathing parameters and raw data are stored locally or in the cloud for further analysis or review.

The working principle of the data processing unit is as follows: the data processing unit is connected to the respiration sensor via a wireless communication protocol, such as bluetooth, wi-Fi, or other proprietary wireless protocol. When the respiration data of the child is captured by the respiration sensor, these data will be transmitted wirelessly to the data processing unit. Once the data is received, the data processing unit first performs preprocessing including cleaning, normalization, denoising, etc., for further analysis. The processed data is input into a preset algorithm for analysis. This includes statistical analysis, such as calculating the average frequency and depth of breathing, or more complex machine learning models, such as deep learning networks, for identifying complex breathing patterns. These patterns include rapid changes in respiratory rate, abnormal inhalation and exhalation ratios, or other patterns indicative of asthma symptoms. Based on the analysis results, the data processing unit will determine whether an asthma symptom is present. If an asthma symptom is identified, the data processing unit will activate the connected alarm device, emit a sound, vibration or visual signal, alerting the user or healthcare provider. The data processing unit is also responsible for storing the respiration data and the analysis results, which can be transmitted wirelessly to a remote server or healthcare provider via a built-in communication module for further analysis or for appropriate medical intervention. In general, the data processing unit implements the overall process from receiving and preprocessing data, analyzing the data, interpreting the results and raising an alarm, and finally storing and transmitting the data.

When the data processing unit 2 detects a breathing pattern that does not correspond to the reference data, the alarm device 3 triggers an alarm signal in the form of sound, light and vibration, which draws the attention of the guardian.
The communication module 4, including a Wi-Fi transceiver, a bluetooth transceiver and a mobile network transceiver, is configured to communicate with a cloud server or a smart phone application program, so that a doctor, a parent or a guardian can remotely monitor the respiratory status of a child, view historical data and receive alarm information, and as shown in fig. 2, the usage method of the device for screening and monitoring asthma of a child includes the following steps:
