It is confirmed that the time of generating the second biometric data is increased compared to the time of generating the first biometric data, so that the user can determine an increase in gastric hyperacidity and indigestion symptoms. It may be confirmed that the time between the generation of the first biometric data and the generation of the second biometric data is not good.

Therefore, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the health state information data file may find a singularity of the change in the health state of the user during the period, and may further include the health information corresponding thereto.

Referring to FIG. 6, health information corresponding to the singularity of the user's health condition is described, and regular eating habits, stimulating food restraint, and the like are described. By providing a guideline, the user can be aware of changes in his or her health condition and provide guidelines to prepare for them.

7 is a structural diagram of a health state change information data file according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 7, the illustrated health state change information data file is accumulated and recorded every time payment is made using the user's biometric information.

In addition, the health state change information data file is characterized in that it contains information on the change in the user's health state between the time of payment, the user's payment time. Thus, the strong state change information data file provides a basis for confirming the trend of the user's health state change.

For example, according to this drawing, the first biometric data and corresponding health state data were recorded on the settlement date of September 12, 2003, and the second biometric data and the health state information thereof on the settlement date of October 3, 2003. It can be confirmed that the data was recorded and the settlement date was recorded on October 17, 2003, when the third biometric data and the corresponding health status data were recorded.

Looking at the health state change information data according to the generation of the biometric data with reference to this figure, the sphincter in the pupil of the user at the time of generating the first biometric data (first payment) shows a slight white sign, The stomach acid or indigestion of the user was predicted.

Later, when the second biometric data is generated, it is confirmed that the whiteness of the sphincter in the pupil of the user is relatively increased, thereby increasing the stomach acidity or indigestion of the user.

Accordingly, it may be confirmed that the health state of the user is changed badly during the time between the first biometric data generation time point and the second biometric information data generation point (about 20 days).

In addition, when the third biometric data is generated at a later point in time, the degree of whiteness of the sphincter in the pupil of the user may be slightly disappeared, and the health state of the user may be improved.

8 and 9 described below are simple implementations for the case where the user biometric information is used as the user's own authentication means (Fig. 8) and the case where the user biometric information is generally used instead of the payment means and the authentication means (Fig. 9). A flow diagram for implementing an example.

8 is a simple flowchart for implementing another preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 8, according to the present invention, when the user's biometric information is used as the user's identity authentication means, the user's fingerprint information is used as the biometric information used as the user's identity authentication means, and the fingerprint information is recognized. By using such an ATM (Auto Teller Machine) machine, by comparing the fingerprint information of the user (comparison of the registered fingerprint information and the current fingerprint information), it is to provide the health status change information of the user.

In general, the ATM receives the card information and key input information from the user who wants to make a transaction, and transmits the bank or card issuing institution through the VAN to perform an automated payment process by performing an approval process for the user's cash payment. As a device for this purpose, when the ATM device includes a system for recognizing a user's fingerprint, the user's health state change according to the present invention can be measured using the fingerprint information of the user.

First, a user operates an ATM to request cash payment, and provides his fingerprint information to the ATM according to the present invention (800).

The ATM provides the fingerprint information obtained from the user to the server 100 (or an internal DB of the ATM) (805), and the server 100 checks whether the user fingerprint information provided from the ATM is pre-registered fingerprint information. (810)

For example, the confirmation of the registered fingerprint information may confirm whether there is a fingerprint information stored in association with the user information through the user's card and / or bank account and / or personal unique code.

If there is no pre-registered fingerprint information as a basis for comparing with the current fingerprint information of the user (815), the server 100 can provide a current health state based on the current fingerprint information of the user. In order to compare the user fingerprint information according to the present invention, the current fingerprint information is stored in a predetermined storage medium or the like in association with the user information.

In the registration of the user fingerprint information, by applying a pattern recognition algorithm or the like to the fingerprint information obtained from the user, except for the common point that can have the same as the fingerprint information of other users, the user's identity authentication and health information acquisition And only feature points for comparison are extracted and stored in the form of a template.

In addition, the feature point may be replaced with the user's heart rate information or vein arrangement or blood vessel temperature transmitted from the end of the fingerprint.

For example, the size of the template increases as the number of feature points increases, but the recognition error rate decreases. In general, about 15 to 60 feature points are preferably included in the template.

On the other hand, if the pre-registered fingerprint information of the user exists (820), the server 100 extracts the pre-registered fingerprint information of the user and compared with the currently obtained fingerprint information, the existing fingerprint information and the current fingerprint information Check the specificity of the liver (825).

For example, in order to more clearly compare the fingerprint information, a method of enlarging the template size is possible as described above, which indicates that a person skilled in the art can supplement and modify the present invention.

According to the present invention, if the specificity between the registered fingerprint information of the user and the current fingerprint information is confirmed (830), the server 100 refers to the specificity detected between the fingerprint information with reference to a pre-built health information database. In operation 835, health state change information corresponding to the generated state is generated.

For example, in the identification of the specificity between the registered fingerprint information of the user and the current fingerprint information and the generation of health state change information, when the fingerprint information of the user used is the right hand thumb, the right hand thumb is generally used in the digestive system. Since it is related to the liver, tonsils, cold, etc., when the feature point is slightly open compared to the existing fingerprint information or the feature point is slightly distorted, it is possible to predict a change in the user's health state by comparing the fingerprint information.

In addition, the server 100 stores the generated health state change information in association with the user information, and transmits the health state change information to an ATM (840), the ATM machine processes the cash payment request of the user In operation 845, the user's state of health change information provided from the server 100 is notified to the user.

Figure 9 is a simple flowchart for implementing another preferred embodiment of the present invention.

The figure illustrates an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to telebanking (or voice banking) using the user's voice by using the user's voice as biometric information for comparatively measuring the change in the health state of the user.

In general, telebanking is a system for banking by telephone. When a telephone is connected to each bank's telebanking center, it is linked to a voice answering system installed in the telephone, so that the user can perform banking services more conveniently by voice. In this way, it is possible to provide the health state change information to be proposed by the present invention by using the user voice used in the telebanking.

The user connects to the server 100 through a telebanking terminal for the purpose of banking, such as bank transfer, and requests the server 100 for a telebanking process (900).

The server 100 obtains voice information of the user through a telebanking terminal (905), and the server 100 checks the user information to determine whether there is previously stored user voice information (910).

If there is no pre-registered user voice information as a basis for comparison with the current voice information of the user according to the present invention (915), the server acquires the voice information obtained for comparison with the user voice information obtained later. Is stored in a predetermined storage medium or the like in association with the user information.

On the other hand, if there is already registered user voice information as a basis for comparison with the current voice information of the user (920), the server 100 extracts the pre-registered voice information of the user, and the currently acquired voice information and In comparison, the existence of mutual specificity is confirmed (925).

For example, the comparison of the user's voice information according to the present embodiment may be performed by comparing the harmonics to noise ratio (HNR) in the short term through the pronunciation of a vowel obtained from the user's voice.

For example, the HNR of a healthy person uttered by ah or yi is about 20 dB and the right is 40 dB because of the high amplitudes of the high frequencies in the vowels a and yi. This is because the HNR or Jitter value (the amount of pitch change, the vibration of the vocal cords in pronunciation in unit time) is sensitive. Therefore, the HNR of the vowel 'yi', which is pronounced as a thirsty or pathological voice, is much lower than 20 dB. Therefore, by comparing the HNR of the registered user's voice with the current user's voice, the user's fatigue, illness, etc. By comparing the Jitter value of the user's voice and the like (in case of abnormality, the value is severely changed), the presence or absence of vocal cord nodule or cancer tissue of the user can be confirmed.

As a result of comparing the pre-registered voice information of the user with the currently acquired voice information, and if there is a specificity between each other (930), the server 100 refers to the specificity detected between the voice information with reference to a pre-built health information database. Generating health state change information corresponding to the stored information (935), storing the generated health state change information in association with the user information, and transmitting the health state change information to a tele-manufactured terminal, thereby changing the health state to the user. Inform the information (940).

According to the present invention, upon payment using the user's biometric information as a payment means, the user's biometric data is recorded on a predetermined storage medium, and the biometric information provided from the user at the time of payment is compared with previously recorded biometric information. By acquiring a health condition change of the user and providing the same to the user, the user can easily check his or her health state change during a predetermined period (every payment), and receive health information according to the health state change. There is this.

In addition, when the user authentication process using the user's biometric information as the user authentication means, the user's biometric data is recorded in a predetermined storage medium, and upon the user's authentication processing request, the previously recorded biometric information and the current user's biometric information By comparing with each other, it is possible to check the change in the health state of the user every time the authentication process using the user biometric information, and provide health information accordingly.
