The present invention relates to the field of cosmetic medicine, and more particularly, to an artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment.

There are three stages of demand for skin care: the first stage is the demand for basic skin care, the second stage is the demand for improvement of skin blemishes, and the third stage is the demand for skin disease treatment.

Skin care refers to the action of satisfying the first-stage, second-stage, and even third-stage demands of the skin through medical treatment and treatment. Creatively combining a number of new skin care technologies currently on the market with traditional skin care methods can improve the condition of less-than-ideal skin, maintain skin health, and delay skin aging.

Solve thoroughly. Currently, skin care has already developed into a systematic beauty industry.

Various tools are needed to work for skin care. Examples include a laser beauty device, an IPL photon beauty device, a radio frequency (RF) device, an ultrasonic skin firming device, a hair removal device, and a spray spray nozzle.

Method 1

As described above, various tools are required to manipulate skin treatment. Examples include a laser beauty device, an IPL photon beauty device, a radio frequency (RF) device, an ultrasonic skin firming device, a hair removal device, and a spray spray nozzle. Because these tools are typically used by trained professionals, the labor costs are high.

In addition, it is quite unstable because each expert's skill level is different and the precision of work can vary depending on the mental state of the person and the work environment.

In order to solve the above technical problem, the first implementation method of the present invention proposes an artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment, as shown in FIG. 1A.

A treatment tool 2 for performing a treatment on the skin;

A mechanical arm 1 for operating the processing tool 2; And

It includes a system controller 3 that is communicatively connected with the machine arm 1 to plan the motion of the machine arm 1.

Specifically, the treatment tool 2 may include any one of a laser beauty device, an IPL photon beauty device, an RF device, a focused ultrasonic skin firming device, a non-invasive water light and a compressed oxygen therapy device, or a combination thereof. have. Here, the light source wavelength of the laser beauty device is 532nm, 592nm, 755nm, 810nm or 1064nm. Those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains will appreciate that a laser, illumination or non-illumination device mounted on a treatment tool can satisfy the process of a dermatologist's laser or non-irradiation based treatment. . Through the treatment tool 2 and related facilities, for example, the system controller, the scanner, the machine arm 1, and the like can interact with each other to obtain an optimal treatment effect.

The term "skin" in the present invention may be any part of a human body or an animal's body surface, and in general, the market demands the most for the beauty of human facial skin. Using the present invention, it is possible to automate various tasks such as spot, acne, wound removal, hair removal, skin elasticity improvement, cleanliness, moisturizing, beauty, etc. on the skin of a human or animal body.

The system controller 3 of the present invention may be disposed in an integrated method, a separate method, or a distributed method, and may be installed in the mechanical arm 1 or independently installed outside the mechanical arm 1 in terms of its physical position.

Preferably, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Fig. 1A, there may be a plurality of machine arms 1, and the number of processing tools 2 and machine arms 1 are the same and correspond one by one.

The processing tool 2 is fixedly installed on the corresponding machine arm 1.

When a plurality of mechanical arms (1) are installed and each of the mechanical arms (1) and the treatment tool (2) correspond one-to-one, the method of operating the plurality of mechanical arms (1) at the same time is adopted to improve cosmetic efficiency and reduce treatment time. You can shorten it. In addition, since there is no need to install a clamping structure at the connection portion between the machine arm 1 and the processing tool 2, the facility structure can be further simplified.

It should be explained that in the embodiment of the present invention, the processing tool 2 and the control system 3 are communicatively connected. By connecting the processing tool 2 directly to the system controller 3, turn the processing tool 2 on/off, or adjust the output power of an adjustable processing tool 2 such as a dryer. I can.

For example, when the system controller 3 controls the machine arm 1 on which the laser beauty device is installed to move to the target position, the laser power is turned on and the output power is adjusted within a suitable range so that the laser is advanced. It can be turned off after being irradiated for a set amount of time.

Naturally, the processing tool 2 can also be triggered and controlled via the mechanical arm 1. For example, it is possible to control the processing tool 2 by pressing an interaction device such as a switch or a rotary knob on the processing tool 2 through the mechanical arm 1. When triggering and controlling the processing tool 2 with the mechanical arm 1, a conventional processing tool 2 can be used and there is no need to specifically tailor or modify the processing tool 2. However, correspondingly, the demand level for the structure of the mechanical arm 1 is higher. Both of the above two control methods have their own advantages, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs can select a suitable control method according to demand.

In detail, the implementation method of the present invention proposes a method of operating an artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment, and may include the following steps as shown in FIG. 1B.

1. In the preparation stage, user data can be obtained through various methods, and a treatment plan for the skin to be treated is created based on the skin condition of the target. For example, data can be manually entered into a computer, or data can be directly generated using tools such as various sensors and 3D scanners.

2. After creating a treatment plan, it is possible to selectively detect whether the intensity of the treatment plan is appropriate by performing skin detection in order to verify the treatment plan, and adjust the treatment plan based on the detection result.

3. Clean the skin treatment area, such as the face, before treatment. In the case of a facial part as an example, the process of performing a cleaning operation includes steps 3a of taking a picture of the facial part, recording the condition of the facial part before treatment, and using it as a basic reference for determining the treatment effect; Step 3b to protect a special part of the face, for example, covering the eyes; And a step 3c of performing a moisturizing and cleansing operation on the facial part by performing preoperative care on the facial part, for example, using carbonated lotion.

4. According to the skin treatment plan formed after that, the key coefficient of the operation of the machine arm (1) is input to the system controller (3), and in the coefficient, the work path in which the machine arm (1) runs in space, and different treatments on the route. The working time, output power, output wavelength, etc. of the processing tool 2 in the area are included.

5. After entering the coefficients, you can formally start the treatment process. When the machine arm (1) and the treatment tool (2) are not fixedly connected, the treatment tool (2) is picked up through the machine arm (1) and the movement trajectory of the treatment tool (2) is controlled with the machine arm (1). By doing so, it is possible to cover the treatment area. Since the specific processing procedure is similar to the manual (manual) processing procedure, it will not be described further here.

6. After the operation of each processing tool 2 is finished, the other processing tool 2 can be picked up again through the machine arm 1 to proceed with the processing.

7. After completing all treatment processes, perform a final cleansing operation on the face. The cleaning operation can be implemented by including protective measures such as putting on a moisturizing mask, and the final cleaning operation acts on all materials of the face.

8. Take a picture and organize the experience by comparing it to the situation before processing.

Compared with the prior art, the implementation method of the present invention operates the treatment tool 2 by controlling the mechanical arm 1 using the system controller 3, so that the medical cosmetic treatment for the user's skin can be automated and proceeded. , It can greatly save labor costs and improve beauty effects.

Method 2

In the second embodiment of the present invention, an artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment is proposed. The second implementation method is generally the same as the first implementation method, and the main differences are as follows. That is, in the first embodiment of the present invention, there are a plurality of machine arms (1), and the quantity of the processing tool (2) and the machine arms (1) is the same and corresponds one-to-one, but in the second embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. As shown, the task can be completed only if there is a relatively small number of mechanical arms (1).

Specifically, the artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment of the present embodiment further includes a maintenance area 4 installed within the operating range of the mechanical arm 1, wherein the plurality of treatment tools 2 is a maintenance area 4 ), so that the machine arm 1 is convenient to pick up the treatment tool 2.

For example, when performing the entire cosmetic treatment, the mechanical arm first picks up the laser beauty device in the maintenance area 4, and after the laser treatment is completed, again picks up the skin care spray device in the maintenance area 4 to moisturize the skin. Can be supplemented. After that, another treatment tool 2 is picked up in the maintenance area. Since the order of skin care is more diverse, it will not be described further here.

When the maintenance area 4 is installed, since the treatment tool 2 is picked up by the mechanical arm 1, the quantity of the mechanical arm 1 required can be reduced and the required medical space can be reduced. In addition, the operation of the mechanical arm 1, which has a relatively small quantity, is also easy to program, so the difficulty of use is relatively low.

Method 3

In the third implementation method of the present invention, an artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment is proposed. The third implementation method is a further improvement of the first or second implementation method, and the main improvements are as follows. That is, in the third implementation method of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3, a data input facility 5 is further included in the artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment, and the data input facility 5 communicates with the system controller 3 It is connected and used to obtain body surface contour data of the object to be processed and transmit it to the system controller 3.

The system controller 3 is used to generate a motion trajectory of the mechanical arm 1 based on the input body surface contour data. The body surface contour may be the contour of the human face. Of course, it could be the outline of another part.

The difficulty of controlling the mechanical arm 1 can be lowered by acquiring the contour of the object to be processed using the data input facility 5.

Here, preferably, the data input facility 5 comprises an imaging facility or a scanning facility. Specifically, it may include an image scanner, an infrared thermal scanner, an EGC sensor, a camera, and a body temperature and pulse sensor. Necessary data is acquired using various sensors, and the data is processed and converted into body surface contour data to guide the movement of the robot.

An accurate 3D model is obtained using various imaging facilities or scanning facilities of the prior art, and the 3D model is applied to a processing process. Taking the human face as an example, after acquiring the facial contour through the data input facility (5), input in the system controller (3) which part of the facial contour is required and what processing is required, and then proceed with the processing using the processing tool (2). Therefore, the automation ability of the skin treatment device is further improved.

Method 4

Since it is difficult for a person to not move the head or a specific body part for a long time while awakening, it is not easy to automate the process.

Therefore, in the fourth implementation method of the present invention, an artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment is proposed. The fourth implementation method is a further improvement of any one of the first to third implementation methods, and the main improvements are as follows. That is, in the fourth implementation method of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, a photographing device 6 in communication with the system controller 3 is further included in the artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment, and the photographing device 6 is a processing target. It is used to acquire the operation of and transmit it to the system controller (3).

The system controller 3 calculates compensation for the motion of the machine arm 1 based on the received motion.

Since the motion motion of the object to be processed can be acquired through the photographing device 6, it is convenient to issue a compensation command from the system controller 3.

For example, when the system controller 3 obtains data that the head of the processing target has moved 5 mm to the right through the photographing device 6, the mechanical arm 1 may also be controlled to move 5 mm to the right. Thus, the treatment tool 2 can continuously move along a preset path of the skin surface to be treated. In detail, it is possible to perform compensation by determining the real-time position of the object to be processed, for example, the nose using image capture and analysis technology.

In other words, in order to prevent deviations from occurring in the motion path of the preset mechanical arm (1) due to uncontrolled movement of the object to be processed, motion for the mechanical arm (1) by photographing the motion target with the photographing device (6). Since the compensation is in progress, the beauty precision can be improved.

Method 5

In cosmetic treatment, it is often possible to use technical means for generating high temperatures, such as lasers.

Therefore, in the fifth implementation method of the present invention, an artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment is proposed. The fifth implementation method is a further improvement of any one of the first to fourth implementation methods, and the main improvements are as follows. That is, in the fifth implementation method of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, a thermal imaging device 7 communicatively connected to the system controller 3 is further included in the artificial intelligence robot for skin treatment, and the thermal imaging device 7 is a processing target. It is used to acquire the thermal image of the head or body surface and transmit it to the system controller 3.

The system controller 3 adjusts the working state of the processing tool 2 based on the received thermal image.

The body surface temperature can be obtained using the thermal imaging device 7, and the output power of the treatment tool 2 can be accurately adjusted through the temperature feedback to obtain a more excellent treatment effect.

For example, the system controller 3 controls the output power of the treatment tool 2 to decrease when the body surface temperature of the object to be treated obtained from the thermal imaging equipment 7 is higher than the expected value, thereby making the treatment tool 2 safer and more secure. It allows the treatment to proceed accurately.

Those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs can understand that in the above implementation manner, many technical details have been described in order to aid the reader's understanding of the present application. However, even if there are no various changes and modifications based on these technical details and each of the above implementation methods, the technical solutions to be protected in each claim of the present application can be basically implemented.
