LIFESAVING KIT FOR MONITORING VICTIM CONDITION

The present invention relates to a lifesaving kit for monitoring the condition of a person in distress in a distress situation.

In general, in the case of drowning accidents that occur on water or at sea, as well as falls that occur while hiking, it is important to rescue the survivors within the golden time because many people who are in an accident are already in an emergency situation.

However, despite the urgent situation requiring urgent rescue of the victims, it is often difficult to quickly access the scene of the accident because it is difficult to locate the victims. Therefore, it takes a considerable amount of time to rescue the survivors, and eventually the rescue time delay may lead to the death of the survivors.

In addition, there may be situations where it is impossible to know the exact information about the accident situation of the survivors, so that appropriate actions cannot be taken in a timely manner. This can happen.

Therefore, there is a need for an efficient way to rescue the distressed within the golden time by taking appropriate rescue measures through monitoring the distressed state.

Conventionally, in the case of overturning or drowning accidents occurring on water or at sea, and falling or tripping accidents occurring in mountainous areas, it was difficult to rescue the survivors within the golden time because the location of the victims could not be accurately known.

Specifically, when these accidents occur, the location of the shipwreck can be identified by delivering a rescue kit to the person in distress, or the location of the shipwreck can be determined through a lifesaving kit already in possession of the person in distress. However, if the lifesaving kit is not properly delivered to the survivor, or if the rescuer loses the lifesaving kit he was carrying during an accident, the rescuer will be dispatched to the wrong place instead of the actual location of the survivor. , which can lead to a situation in which time is wasted in finding the actual location of the distressed person, and ultimately the golden time is missed.

In order to solve the problems of the prior art, the present invention uses various sensors such as a sound recognition sensor and an acceleration sensor to immediately grasp the situation of the distress occurrence and to determine the exact location of the person in distress so that a more rapid rescue can be achieved, and also pressure It uses various sensors such as sensors to determine whether the person in distress has properly secured a lifesaving kit, and takes appropriate measures depending on the situation so that the rescue can be carried out more quickly.

1) Monitoring through sound recognition sensor

The controller 13 may sense sound information of at least one of an ambient environment sound and a voice of a survivor through the sound recognition sensor. In this case, the sound recognition sensor may be included in the first sensor unit 14 .

The control unit 13 may detect an abnormal situation of the distressed person using the first learning model related to sound recognition based on the sensed sound information, and transmit a rescue request signal or an additional action request signal to the remote terminal 20 . .

Here, the abnormal situation means a distress situation, for example, a situation in which an overturning or drowning accident occurs on water or at sea, or a situation in which a fall or trip accident occurs in a mountainous area.

That is, when an accident occurs through the sound recognition sensor built in the kit 10 , an abnormal situation can be detected by recognizing the sound of the surrounding environment, the voice of a person in distress, or the sound of a whistle.

For example, in the event of an overturning accident at sea, the sound recognition sensor built into the lifesaving kit 10 carried by the survivor or delivered (via a carrier) to the shipwrecked person can detect the voice of the shipwreck, for example, " When the sentence "Please help me" is recognized or the whistle sound connected to the tube 15 is recognized, the first learning model analyzes the recognized sound information to determine that an accident has occurred.

Accordingly, the control unit 13 may transmit a rescue request signal or an additional action request signal to the remote terminal 20 together with the location information of the distressed person sensed by the GPS location sensor.

Here, the first learning model is a learning model to which an artificial intelligence algorithm related to sound recognition is applied, and may be constructed by learning various sounds that may appear in a distress situation.

The control unit 13 may analyze sound information sensed through the first learning model, for example, ambient sound, and predict whether an accident occurred at sea or water or an accident occurred in a mountainous area.

The control unit 13 may analyze the sound information sensed through the first learning model and the voice of the person in distress, and predict the distance between the victim and the kit 10 . If the distance between the distressed person and the kit 10 is greater than or equal to the preset reference distance, it is determined that the distressed person cannot acquire the kit 10 , and the control unit 13 may transmit an additional action request signal to the remote terminal 20 .

According to the embodiment, even when the sound information sensed by the sound recognition sensor is not clear due to the inaccuracy of the voice of the distressed, the noise of the surrounding environment, the limitation of communication, etc., the sound information is obtained using the first learning model. By analyzing and predicting the contents of the sound information, it is possible to detect anomalies. Alternatively, by analyzing the sound information and expressing it in other forms, such as textualization, light or color change, vibration, etc., it is possible to take appropriate measures according to the situation.

2) Monitoring via pressure sensor

The control unit 13 may receive pressure change information for the tube sensed by the pressure sensor from the communication module through the communication unit 12 . In this case, the pressure sensor and the communication module may be included in the second sensor unit 16 .

The control unit 13 may determine whether the person in distress is holding the tube based on the pressure change information, and may transmit a rescue request signal or an additional action request signal to the remote terminal 20 based on the determined result.

Specifically, when the pressure applied to the tube 15 changes from the first value to the second value based on the pressure change information, the control unit 13 determines that the tube 15 has expanded and , when the pressure applied to the tube 15 changes from the second value to the third value, it may be determined that the person in distress has gripped the inflated tube 15 .

The pressure applied to the tube 15 in a state in which the tube 15 is not inflated (that is, a state built in the case) may be a first value, and the tube 15 is in an inflated state (ie, a state separated from the case). ), the pressure applied to the tube 15 may be a second value. In this case, the second value may be greater than the first value. In addition, the pressure applied to the tube 15 in a state in which the victim holds the inflated tube 15 may be a third value. In this case, the third value may be greater than the second value.

Therefore, when the pressure applied to the tube 15 changes from the first value to the second value, the control unit 13 may determine that the tube 15 is separated from the case 11 and expanded in contact with water. have. When the pressure applied to the tube 15 changes from the second value to the third value, the control unit 13 may determine that the victim has secured the inflated tube 15 .

Then, the control unit 13, based on the determined result, when the tube 15 is inflated but the survivor does not hold the inflated tube 15, the additional action request signal together with the location information of the survivor and, when the tube 15 is inflated and the survivor grips the inflated tube 15, the rescue request signal may be transmitted along with the location information of the survivor.

That is, when it is determined that the tube 15 is inflated but the survivor does not grip the inflated tube 15 (that is, the pressure applied to the tube 15 changes from the first value to the second value, but If it does not change from the value 2 to the value 3), the control unit 13 determines that the distressed person has not secured the inflated tube 15, and sends an additional action request signal such as an additional kit delivery request to the remote terminal 20 can be sent to

When the tube 15 is inflated and the survivor grips the inflated tube 15 (that is, the pressure applied to the tube 15 changes from the first value to the second value and changes back to the third value) case), the control unit 13 may transmit a rescue request signal such as a rescue team call request to the remote terminal 20 by determining that the person in distress has secured the inflated tube 15 .

By using the pressure sensor to determine whether the victim is holding the tube, it is possible to more quickly determine the position of the person in distress when there are a plurality of kits around the person in distress.

For example, when a sea overturn accident occurs, several kits 10 are thrown to the side of the survivor or delivered through a carrier in order to save lives. At this time, the GPS location information sensed by each kit 10 is emitted. As a result, it is impossible to accurately determine which kit 10 among several kits 10 has a survivor (that is, which tube 15 the survivor is holding), so that the terminal 20 monitors the condition of the survivor. There may be difficulties with

Therefore, the pressure change applied to the tube 15 is sensed using the pressure sensor, and accordingly, it is possible to determine which tube 15 the victim has gripped from several tubes 15, and the tube 10 is It is possible to save lives quickly and efficiently by tracking only the emitted GPS location information.

3) Monitoring using acceleration sensor or vibration sensor

The control unit 13 may sense the acceleration change information of the victim through an acceleration sensor, and sense the shock occurrence information of the victim through a vibration sensor. In this case, the acceleration sensor and the vibration sensor may be included in the first sensor unit 14 .

The controller 13 may detect an abnormal situation based on the sensed acceleration change information and transmit a rescue request signal or an additional action request signal to the remote terminal 20 .

Here, the abnormal situation means a distress situation, for example, a situation in which an overturning or drowning accident occurs on water or at sea, or a situation in which a fall or trip accident occurs in a mountainous area.

That is, when an accident occurs, for example, when a fall from a boat, a fall from a rock or cliff, etc. occur, an abnormal situation can be detected through a change in the acceleration of the kit 10 carried by the person in distress.

More specifically, when the acceleration of the kit 10 carried by the distressed person maintains a constant value and suddenly increases to a difference greater than or equal to a preset value, it can be determined that an abnormal situation has occurred.

According to an embodiment, the controller 13 detects an abnormal situation by combining the acceleration change information and the shock occurrence information, and when an abnormal situation is detected, the rescue request signal or the additional action request signal to the remote terminal 20 You can also send

That is, when an accident occurs, for example, when a fall from a ship, a fall from a rock or cliff, etc. occurs, an abnormal situation can be detected through the change in acceleration and the intensity of the shaking of the kit 10 carried by the person in distress. .

More specifically, it can be determined that an abnormal situation has occurred when the acceleration of the kit 10 carried by the distressed person maintains a constant value and abruptly increases to a difference greater than or equal to a preset value, and at the same time, the shaking intensity becomes greater than a preset value.

As described above, the present invention uses a sound recognition sensor, a pressure sensor, an acceleration sensor, and a vibration sensor to detect an abnormal situation of a distressed person, and according to the situation, by transmitting a rescue request signal or an additional action request signal to the remote terminal, Although the terminal 20 may be able to monitor the situation of the person in distress, according to an embodiment, the first sensor unit 14 and the second sensor unit use one or more sensors among a plurality of sensors included in any one. It is also possible to monitor the condition of the distressed by using the sensing result.

On the other hand, the case 11 is formed to be coupled to and separated from the carrier by using the link of the joint structure formed on the upper surface, so that the kit 10 can be delivered to the survivor.

As described above, the person in distress may already be in distress while carrying the lifesaving kit 10 , but may be in distress without the kit 10 . In this case, the kit 10 may be delivered to the victim through a carrier (eg, a drone).

For this case, the upper surface of the kit 10 includes a link 116 of a joint structure as shown in FIG. 5 , and may be formed to enable coupling and separation with the carrier. Specifically, through the rotation or horizontal movement of the link 116 of the joint structure, the kit 10 is combined with and separated from the carrier, so that the kit 10 can be delivered to a distressed person in a distress accident occurring in the sea, water, or mountainous area. .

Depending on the embodiment, vaccines, emergency medicines, etc. may be embedded in the kit 10 , and the products may be delivered to people who cannot easily obtain vaccines or emergency medicines in island areas through a carrier.

According to an embodiment, the control unit 13 determines the difference between the sensing result when the kit 10 is successfully delivered to the distressed by the carrier and the sensing result when the kit fails to be delivered to the distressed by the carrier. It is possible to build a second learning model related to kit delivery by learning.

That is, the second learning model provides a sensing result and a transmission failure when transmission is successful by at least one sensor among a plurality of sensors included in the first sensor unit 14 or the second sensor unit 16 in the kit 10 . It can be built by learning the sensing result and learning the difference in each case.

For example, the second learning model may use the sensing result of the GPS location sensor to data and learn the movement of the kit 10 when delivery to the distressed is successful and the movement of the kit 10 when delivery is unsuccessful.

As another example, the second learning model may use a gravity sensor or an acceleration sensor to data and learn the difference in acceleration or movement due to the difference in gravity of the kit 10 when delivery to the distressed is successful and when it fails.

The control unit 13 may increase the kit 10 delivery success rate by analyzing the sensing results transmitted in real time from the kit 10 through the second learning model and predicting the correct path when the kit 10 is delivered.

Meanwhile, the remote terminal 20 may manage the kit 10 using information related to consumables included in the lifesaving kit 10 .

Specifically, the user or the rescuer checks the maintenance information such as the replacement cycle and usage history of the consumables, for example, the tube 15, the compressed gas cylinder, etc. through the application installed in the remote terminal 20, and through this The consumables of the kit 10 can be replaced or cleaned at an appropriate time. In addition, information related to the battery charging status of the kit 10 and movement, on/off status, and usage status of the kit 10 can be checked, and the kit 10 can be managed through this.

Meanwhile, although not shown in FIG. 2 , the lifesaving kit 10 may further include a third sensor unit (not shown).

A third sensor unit (not shown) may be mounted on the case 11 . In more detail, the third sensor unit (not shown) may be mounted on the first part 112 .

The third sensor unit (not shown) may include one or more sensors for sensing at least one of information in the lifesaving kit 10 , surrounding environment information surrounding the lifesaving kit 10 , and survivor information. For example, the third sensor unit (not shown) may include a GPS position sensor, an acceleration sensor, a vibration sensor, a radar sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, a vision sensor, and moisture. Sensitive sensor, sound recognition sensor, pressure sensor, proximity sensor, illumination sensor, touch sensor, magnetic sensor, gravity sensor (G-sensor), Gyroscope sensor, motion sensor, RGB sensor, infrared sensor (IR sensor), fingerprint sensor (finger scan sensor), optical sensor (optical sensor), battery gauge , at least one of an environmental sensor (eg, barometer, hygrometer, thermometer, radiation detection sensor, thermal sensor, gas detection sensor, etc.), chemical sensor (eg, electronic nose, healthcare sensor, biometric sensor, etc.) may include.

A third sensor unit (not shown) may sense a distress situation image using the vision sensor. In this case, the vision sensor may include a general camera module (EO) and a thermal imaging camera module (IR).

That is, the controller 13 may transmit the distress situation image captured by the general camera module EO and the thermal imaging camera module IR included in the vision sensor to the remote terminal 20 .

Accordingly, the user or the rescuer can visually monitor the distress situation through the distress situation image received by the remote terminal 20 .

According to an embodiment, the controller 13 may transmit the general image or the thermal image photographed by the thermal imaging camera module to the remote terminal 20 according to the quality or resolution of the general image photographed by the general camera module. can In this case, the distress situation image may be the general image or the thermal image image.

For example, the controller 13 determines a case in which the image quality or resolution of a general image captured by the general camera module falls below a preset level due to various reasons such as weather, accident site situation, etc., and the general image with reduced image quality or resolution Instead, the thermal image captured by the thermal imaging camera module may be transmitted to the remote terminal 20 .

As another example, the controller 13 determines a case in which the image quality or resolution of a general image captured by the general camera module falls below a preset level due to various reasons such as weather, accident scene situation, etc. The thermal image taken by the thermal imaging camera module may also be transmitted to the remote terminal 20 together with.
