Is to provide a basic model structure to make this happen.

The main terms to be used in the present embodiment are first described as follows.

"Olfactory Display" means various technologies for using the sense of smell as media information.

"Olfactory Recognition System" means a device that can recognize odors, and can be recognized as a odor recognition system or an olfactory recognition device if it can be recognized whether a single smell or a complex smell. It doesn't necessarily mean exactly what the smell is. Usually, there are devices and sensors such as gas sensors and electronic noses.

"Olfactory Interaction" refers to the input and output between the user and the environment that occurs while the user experiences the olfactory information (smell information) in a virtual or real environment by manipulating a physical device that recognizes and expresses olfactory information. It refers to a series of processes and states including reactions according to input and output.

In the description of this embodiment, the sensational content may be shortened and expressed as content.

In order to standardize the reference model, the following definition and standardization are required.

1) Interaction reference model between olfactory recognition device and content device

2) Data Processing Structure and Flow for Operation of Reference Model

3) Specification of device information data sheet storing physical and electrical information of odor sensor

4) Data format for transmitting and operating information between olfactory recognition device and contents device

6) Specification of contents information service stack that defines functions for receiving information from olfactory recognition device and providing information to contents.

7) Communication module specification and interface definition for communication between olfactory recognition device and contents

In this embodiment, 1) the interaction reference model between the olfactory recognition device and the content is defined, and the configuration conditions of the reference model are standardized. In addition, a device information data sheet storing physical and electrical information of an odor recognition sensor for an odor recognition system is standardized. Then, a method for providing a standardized device information data sheet to a content is disclosed. The method for providing the device information data sheet to the content falls under the standard 6). The standard 6) includes two methods of delivering recognized and measured data and a method of delivering a data sheet. However, in the present embodiment, only the method of delivering a device information data sheet to a content is described.

The interaction model between content and olfactory devices define two models and one physical interface method.

The interaction model between the content and the olfactory device includes the olfactory device 101, the content 105, and the physical interface 103 as shown in FIG. 1.

Among them, the olfactory recognition device 101 includes a device communication module 108, a device information service stack 104, a device information data sheet 106, and a device module 102. The content device model includes a content communication module 110, a content information service stack 112, and a content 114.

The device module 102 includes a sensor unit (not shown), a sensor driving circuit unit (not shown), and a data acquisition and device control unit (not shown). The sensor unit is a part including a sensor that recognizes an odor. Odor-recognition sensors, also known as gas sensors, include metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) sensors, quartz vibration microbalance (QCM) sensors, surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors, and conductivity Conductive Polymer (CP) sensors and the like.

Metal oxide semiconductor sensor is a gas sensor using semiconductor oxide based on ZnO and SnO 2 . The response of the sensor is measured by the displacement of the resistance between the two electrodes as a result of a chemical reaction on the surface of the semiconductor oxide. In addition, the heater is built to maintain the sensing operating temperature (250 ~ 400 ℃) of the semiconductor oxide surface. It has fast reaction speed and simple installation, and shows good characteristics against corrosive gas and humidity. The resistance changes depending on the odor or the concentration of the gas. In the present embodiment, it is preferable to convert a resistor into a voltage through a driving circuit, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

The crystal vibration microbalance sensor changes its frequency at its output according to the smell or gas, and the operating frequency is in the range of 10 to 30 MHz. The oscillation frequency of the crystal varies linearly according to Sauerbery's equations due to the additional mass loading in the polymer matrix caused by the absorption of the analytical molecule from the gas phase. Sensor response is measured by the change in the resonant frequency of the oscillating feedback loop. QCM sensor has a concentration range of 10ppm or more, can operate at room temperature, and has high reproducibility.

The surface acoustic wave sensor uses a similar principle to the QCM sensor mentioned above, representing mass displacement as frequency displacement. The sensor has a high frequency, such as 600 MHz, as the name suggests.

The conductive polymer sensor is one of gas sensors that measure the resistance change of the polymer film by DC when gas is adsorbed. The CP sensor can be used at room temperature as opposed to the MOS sensor mentioned above, and is sensitive to temperature changes. The resistance changes depending on the odor or the concentration of the gas. In this embodiment, it is preferable to convert the resistor into a voltage through a driving circuit.

The sensor unit may use more than one such sensor, and do not necessarily use one type of sensor, and various types of sensors may be used together.

The sensor driving circuit unit may be designed differently according to the type of sensor described above. In the present embodiment, a detailed design method of the sensor driving circuit is omitted.

Data Acquisition and Device Control Unit In addition, a circuit and a method for acquiring data of the sensor may be designed differently according to the type of sensor described above. In the present embodiment, the circuit for acquiring the data of the sensor and the acquisition method will be omitted.

The device information data sheet 106 will be described. The device information data sheet should include the electrical characteristics and sensor characteristics of the gas sensor for odor recognition, and such characteristics information should be able to be provided upon request of contents. The device information data sheet should be stored in a memory that is not erased even if power is not supplied. However, any memory type can be used as long as the memory is not erased even when the power is turned off.

The metadata structure of the gas sensor information is largely composed of four fields, which are shown in FIG. 2.

Basic Information of Sensor indicates the template number of metadata and the type of sensor. The information of the sensor indicates the output of the measured signal, sensor resistance, response time, etc. as information on the sensor. The limitation of sensor indicates the limit imposed on the characteristic or type of the sensor. Information of Calibration represents information about the adjustment or calibration of the sensor.

3 is a diagram illustrating a basic configuration of a device information service stack.

The device information service stack 104 provides functions and service functions for exchanging information between the olfactory recognition device 101 and the content 105. The device information service stack is largely divided into three functions: a data format configuration unit 300, an odor recognition information service function 302, and a device information and data sheet service function 304.

The data format configuration unit 300 converts the smell measurement and recognition information provided by the device and the device data sheet information provided by the device information data sheet into a specific information type configured according to the present embodiment.

The smell recognition information service function 302 includes a function for converting sensor data made or converted into standardized information into a form in which content is available, a function for communicating information with the content, and the like.

The device information data sheet service function 304 includes a function for delivering information provided by the device information data sheet to content.

Returning to FIG. 1, the content 105 includes a content communication module 110, a content information service stack 112, and a content 114.

The content information service stack 112 provides a function for exchanging information between the content device 105 and the olfactory recognition device 101 and a service function for serving odor recognition information to the content.

The content information service stack 112 is largely divided into two functions. One is a function that converts the delivered data format into a form available in the content, and the other is a function for receiving information delivery from the odor recognition device. The data flow and processing structure for handling these functions is described in detail later.

The device communication module 108 and the content communication module 110 may have any form as long as they have a communication function capable of transmitting and receiving digital data. Examples of communication modules that can be used are 1-wire communication, I2C, SPI, UART, RS232, RS485, Zigbee, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi, and can be used if appropriately selected according to specifications, uses, and restrictions. The physical interface 103 may be in any form that supports them.

4 is a diagram illustrating a structure of basic information of sensors.

The first field, sensor basic information, has a TEMPLATE attribute and a% TypeSen attribute, each represented by 8 bits. The template number is fixedly set to 10, but is not limited thereto and may be set differently. % TypeSen represents the type of gas sensor. The type of gas sensor is represented in ASCII format as shown in FIG. 5.

FIG. 8 shows the structure of sensor information when% TypeSen, that is, the type of sensor is 'P'.

The second field indicating the sensor information indicates the maximum and minimum outputs, sensor resistance, and response time of the sensor signal that can be measured as information about the sensor. % MinElecVal is the minimum output of the sensor signal, and% MaxElecVal is the maximum output of the sensor signal. % MapMeth indicates how to map sensor values. In the case of the sensor defined in the present embodiment, a linear condition is basically used. % MinSenR and% MaxSenR are the internal resistances of the sensor and represent the minimum and maximum resistance the sensor can have. % RespTime represents the reaction time when the odor is applied, usually the longest value. However, the MOS type gas sensor has a heater built in to maintain the temperature of the sensing unit. Therefore, information about the heater should also be included. % HeaterR represents the resistance of the heater built into the MOS sensor.

FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a structure of a limitation of a sensor.

The third field, the limit of the sensor, expresses information about the concentration that the sensor can measure, the power supply of the sensor and heater, and the current of the heater. % MinDetRan and% MaxDetRan represent the minimum and maximum concentrations of gas that can be measured, expressed in ppm.

 % MinSenSuppVol and% MaxSenSuppVol represent the maximum and minimum supply voltage that can be applied to the sensor. The% MinHeatSuppVol and% MaxHeatSuppVol represent the maximum and minimum voltage that can be applied to the heater. However, since only the MOS type sensor needs a heater, it is not used for other types of sensors.

The fourth field, correction information, is shown in FIG. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating a structure of information of calibration. As shown in FIG. 10, the last calibration date and time, calibration cycle, and the like of the sensor of the electronic nose system are expressed.

The physical communication method of the information interface between the content and the olfactory recognition device 101 has been described above. As described above, in the embodiment of the present invention, the transfer of various information is performed by a digital signal instead of an analog signal, but is not necessarily limited thereto.

11 is a diagram showing a data processing structure of a device information data sheet.

Delivery of the device information data sheet is automatically performed by the information service stack 104 of the olfactory recognition device as soon as the olfactory recognition device 101 and the content device 105 are connected by a physical communication network. The information service stack 104 of the olfactory recognition device automatically sends an open signal. The stack 112 of the content device sends an approval signal after receiving the start signal. After receiving this signal, the stack 104 of the olfactory recognition device sends a device information datasheet (Device Information Datasheet) to the content information service stack 112, and the received content stack sends an acknowledgment signal. . After receiving this signal, the stack 104 of the olfactory recognition device sends initial mode information. If you do not use this mode signal and want to use a new mode signal, you can send a new mode information signal.

This process should be designed to be done automatically after the connection, but it can be done manually or automatically so that the user or administrator can operate at the desired time after connection.

The transferred device information data sheet 106 is used as data by performing the following functions in the content. That is, the role of the device information data sheet in the content is to check the error of the sensor present in the olfactory recognition device 101, to check the accuracy of the sensor present in the olfactory recognition device, to correct the smell recognition and measurement data delivered to the content, olfactory recognition device Types and characteristics of the sensors present in the sensor, and the lifespan of the sensors present in the odor recognition system.
