In this case, during electrocardiogram measurement, the first electrode may be in contact with one of the left and right sides of the subject's body, and the second electrode may be in contact with the side opposite to the side where the first electrode is in contact. In this case, the first electrode may be a positive electrode, the second electrode may be a negative electrode, and the third electrode may be a ground electrode, and the potential difference between the first electrode and the second electrode with respect to the third electrode may be used. ECG can be measured. The number and arrangement of these electrodes can be changed.

It may be configured to further include an output unit 120. In this case, a separate power supply is required to operate the first biometric information measuring apparatus 100. In this case, a separate battery may be used for power supply, and a battery in a vehicle may be used. In addition, the analog circuit unit 110 and the signal output unit 120 may be inserted into and installed in the vehicle seat back 10.

Next, an ECG signal that can be measured by the first biometric information measuring apparatus 100 will be described.

3 is a view showing a waveform of an electrocardiogram signal measured using a conductive fiber electrode according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout the body and continues to contract and expand regularly. The pumping of the heart is caused by contraction of the myocardium. Each time the heart beats, weak electricity is generated, which causes an electric current to flow through the body, which causes the distribution of potential on the surface of the body. Electrocardiogram (Electrocardiogram, ECG) is recorded by amplifying and recording a small potential change caused by the activity of the heart in a certain way in the appropriate area of the body surface.

The electrocardiogram obtained by the above method is an electrocardiogram. The electrocardiogram may be used as an important data for not only diagnosing heart disease but also for checking and confirming the presence or absence of cardiac abnormalities including coronary diseases such as angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.

The ECG waveform, which reflects the heart's electrical activation phase, basically consists of P, Q, R, S, and T waves.

As a basic type, a curve having the shape shown in FIG. 3 is obtained. Among these, P is due to excitability of the atrial muscle, and Q-T is considered to be a process in which excitability and excitability of the ventricular muscle are subsided. These waveforms are different depending on the electrode induction method and site, and since their shapes change according to various diseases, each disease diagnosis and prognosis can be determined.

For example, hypertension may be expected if the interval at which the ECG is measured is low, and abnormality in blood vessels and the heart may be determined if one part of the PQRST waves is unusually low or high.

Next, the second biometric information measuring apparatus 200 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 4.

In order to supply a separate battery, a separate battery may be used, and an in-vehicle battery may be used.

In addition, the second biometric information measuring device 200 may measure the body pressure of the user through the pressure measurement of each air cell 21, and thereby measure the posture state of the user.

For example, when the second biometric information measuring device 200 including the four air cells 21 is attached to the vehicle seat seat plate 20, the four air cells 21 are located on the upper left side of the user's seated state. It can be divided into left bottom, right top and right bottom. At this time, the weight or force applied to each air cell 21 is changed according to the change in posture of the user and the pressure is changed. In this case, when the pressure of the upper left and lower left portions is higher than the pressure of the upper right and lower right, the balance of the user is balanced. It may be judged that it is biased to the left side, and when the pressure of the upper left and upper right portions is higher than the pressure of the lower left and lower right portions, the user may be judged to be biased toward the steering wheel.

In the above embodiment, the second biometric information measuring device 200 including four air cells 21 has been described. Alternatively, the second biometric information measuring device 200 includes two air cells 21 in the left and right sides, or three parts in the left part, the middle part, and the right part. The number and arrangement of the air cells 21 are not limited, such as the air cells 21 or the plurality of air cells 21 arranged in the form of a checkerboard.

In addition, the second biosignal measuring apparatus 200 may collect basic body pressure information of the user during a predetermined period of time for measuring a user's body balance.

Collecting the basic body pressure information of the user is to measure based on the basic posture habits of the user.

For example, when the user leans forward, the pressure of the air cells 21 located on the upper left and right sides will be measured high, and when the driver is leaning backward, the pressure of the air cells 21 located on the lower left and the right bottom will be measured. Can be measured highly.

The collected basic body pressure information becomes user's reference information, and compares the difference between the basic body pressure information and the body pressure currently measured by the second biometric information measuring device 200, and the difference exceeds a preset allowable range for a predetermined time. If so, it can be measured that the user's body balance is unbalanced.

5 is an implementation diagram of a real-time health diagnosis system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, as mentioned above, the first biometric information measuring device 100 may be installed in the vehicle seat back 10, and the second biometric information measuring device 200 may include a seat plate of the vehicle seat. The third biometric information measuring device 300 may be installed at the position where the heart rate and / or respiratory rate can be measured in a non-contact manner (for example, below the steering wheel) without disturbing the user's operation. Can be.

With this real-time health diagnosis system, the user can measure and analyze electrocardiogram, heart rate, respiratory rate, posture state in real time even by sitting on the seat of the vehicle without attaching a separate device, thereby diagnosing the user's health state. If the health condition is considered to be a risk, it is possible to take appropriate measures to maintain life quickly.

6 is a flowchart illustrating an operation of diagnosing a health state of a user and providing a user state according to the health state according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 6, a driver (user) starts to travel by sitting on a vehicle seat for driving a car. In this case, the user may sit on the vehicle seat without installing a separate measuring device or attaching it to the body, and the first biometric information measuring device 100 measures the electrocardiogram, and the second biometric information measuring device 200 may be used by the user. The body balance is measured (S101, S102).

The measured values are transmitted to the diagnostic apparatus 400, and the diagnostic apparatus 400 may receive the transmitted values, combine and analyze them, and diagnose a health state of the user (S103).

At this time, the back of the user may not be in close contact with the backrest 10 of the vehicle seat due to a change in the posture of the user, and thus, the first biometric information measuring apparatus 100 may not be able to measure the electrocardiogram of the user. have.

In such a case, a value of the heart rate and / or respiratory rate of the user measured by the third biometric information measuring device 300 installed at the bottom of the steering wheel is transmitted to the diagnostic device 400 to diagnose the user's health state. Can be.

That is, the biometric information measured by the first, second and third biometric information measuring devices 300 is transmitted to the diagnostic device 400, and the diagnostic device 400 transmits the biometric information measuring device 300 to the first and third biometric information measuring devices 300. The state of the user is diagnosed by combining the electrocardiogram, heart rate, respiratory rate measured in one of the body balance changes of the user measured by the second biometric information measuring device 200.

For example, as the ECG / breath measured by one of the first and third biometric information measuring devices 300 is out of a normal range, the body balance of the user measured by the second biometric information measuring device 200 is unbalanced. If determined to be resolved, the user may be diagnosed with a stunful state due to brain or heart disease or a state in which normal activity (specifically, driving) is impossible.

At this time, the diagnostic apparatus 400 may receive the user's body information, for example, height, weight, blood type, age, etc., and provides health information about the user's usual respiratory rate, electrocardiogram, and posture state for a predetermined period of time. Can be measured and accumulated.

Referring to FIG. 7, a pressure measuring device including a plurality of air cells 21 is installed in a vehicle seat (S201).

Thereafter, when the user sits on the vehicle seat for driving the vehicle, the body pressure is measured according to the change in the posture of the user (S202).

Thereafter, the second biometric information measuring device 200 undergoes a process of comparing the measured body pressure with existing data (S203).

In this case, the existing data to be compared represents a user's normal or normal state, and in order to generate this, the body pressure according to the user's usual posture state may be measured and stored or accumulated for a predetermined period.

Thereafter, as a result of the comparison, if the difference between the existing data and the measured body pressure exceeds a predetermined allowable reference value, it is determined whether the state is continued, and if it does not exceed the reference value, the process goes back to step S202. (S204).

On the contrary, if the reference value is exceeded, the control unit continuously checks whether the reference value continues for a predetermined time, and if the reference value continues for a predetermined time, it is determined that the user's body balance is unbalanced. It goes through (S206).

If it is determined that the user's body balance is unbalanced, the second biometric information measuring device 200 may transmit the user's body balance information to the diagnosis device 400.

8 is a flowchart illustrating an operation for notifying a user state when it is determined that the user's body balance is imbalanced in the real-time health diagnosis system according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 8, the body balance of the user is unbalanced when the second biometric information measuring apparatus 200 exceeds a preset threshold based on a measured value of body pressure according to a user's movement and existing data. It is determined (S211).

Thereafter, the diagnostic apparatus 400 may determine that the first biometric information measuring device 100 and / or the second biometric information is detected for a predetermined time based on a time point when the second biometric information measuring device 200 determines that the user's body balance is unbalanced. The biological information measured by the biometric information measuring apparatus 200 is analyzed to diagnose a user's health state (S212).

Subsequently, if the user's state is dangerous as a result of the analysis of the diagnosis apparatus 400, the user's location information and the user's state information are transmitted from the user's location to the emergency center 600 and the preset guardian terminal device 700. (S213).

At this time, the reason for analyzing the biometric information such as electrocardiogram, heart rate, respiratory rate, etc. on the basis of when the body balance is unbalanced is to more accurately determine whether the user's body balance imbalance is caused by health abnormalities. , ECG, heart rate, respiratory rate, abnormalities appear in the body balance imbalance due to stun or paralysis within a certain time. In addition, this information is necessary for the doctor to more accurately and quickly diagnose the user's condition when the user is transferred.
