For example, based on the user information, a category that can be coached by the user can be determined from the category of the user's health state, lifestyle, learning state, financial state, or exercise state. For example, based on at least user information, the data processing unit 435 may determine that the user's financial status is weak. In this case, the data processing unit 435 may set a goal that the user deems appropriate (e.g., achieving a deposit balance of 10 million won) and provide a mission related to the target. A plurality of missions related to one goal can be set. For example, you can analyze the payment history of a card and provide a mission to reduce that expenditure if you have excessive food expenses, or if you have a lot of expenses for other snacks, coffee, or alcohol, other than food expenses. For example, Mission 1, once a month at a party; Mission 2, coffee once a week; Mission 3, prohibition of junk food; Mission 4, and monthly savings of 300,000 won. Such a mission can be controlled through the output control unit 433 to provide the user with the appropriate form at the appropriate time (for example, a message such as " coffee should be drunk once a week at meal time ").

In some embodiments, a map for a plurality of categories may be performed. For example, a target for the user's motion state may be set at the same time as the goal related to the financial state described above. For example, if the number of exercises of a user identified through a document or sensor is less than the recommended number of times, a goal for increasing the number of exercises is set, and at least one mission associated therewith (for example, 30 minutes a day, 30 push-ups / 50 squats etc.) can be determined.

According to one embodiment, the goal or mission provided by the user information processing unit 430 may be determined based on the data set stored in the data store 440. [ That is, the user information processing unit 430 can perform the task of matching the received user information with the data set, and can determine an appropriate mission and a target. Hereinafter, a data set will be described with reference to FIGS. 5A to 5E.

5A is an illustration of a data set representing answer and score information according to various embodiments.

Referring to Figure 5A, a particular question (e.g., question # 1) may correspond to a particular category (e.g., category # 1). Depending on the answer to the question, the score for each item can be calculated. For example, if the answer to question # 1 is A, B, C, and D, weights (or scores) may be assigned as 0, 1, 3, More specifically, if you answer the question "How much fruit do you consume a day?" A: "I rarely eat it", the weight is 0, and B: "I eat about half on average." The weight can be given as 1. C: If you answer "I eat more than one", the weight is 3, and D: If you answer "I eat more than 3," the weight can be given as 5. The scores obtained in the same category can be summed to determine the user's goal for each category.

FIG. 5B is an illustration of a data set representing a mission according to a score range in the same category according to various embodiments. FIG.

Referring to FIG. 5B, a mission can be determined according to a result obtained by summing up scores corresponding to answers to the paperwork for a specific category. For example, if the score corresponding to the response to the questionnaire included in the category # 1 is included in the range of 0 to 10 as a result of the addition, the level of the category # 1 of the user is set to 1, 2, and if it is included in 20 ~ 30, it can be set to level 3. According to one embodiment, the data processing unit 435 may determine and provide a mission corresponding to each level based on the data set. Specifically, when the user information related to the user's exercise amount is received and matched to the data table, if the user's exercise amount is sufficient to record a high score (i.e., a high level), the data processing unit 435 decides not to exercise the exercise- Or provide a higher level of movement (eg, a drift or full course marathon) as a mission.

5C is an illustration of a data set for determining a mission-based monitoring method in accordance with various embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 5C, the tracker ID, the tracking period (or monitoring period), and / or the lifespan of the mission may be determined according to the mission. For example, in Mission # 1, tracker # 1 is used to track for two weeks, but the mission can last for one month.

It is important to set the type of the tracker in various embodiments. The electronic devices 101, 200, 310, and 400 may collect various types and vast amounts of data, and determining whether the mission is met for all collected data may include data storage space, battery management, It is not only inefficient in terms of reliability, but also can lower the accuracy. For example, if an activity that allows a user to walk more than 5 km is given as a mission, the user's walking activity can be tracked in a variety of ways. For example, it is possible to determine whether the user is moving through data received through an inertial sensor or an acceleration sensor of an electronic device. It is possible to determine whether the user is moving by monitoring the user's real-time position using a communication network, Wi-Fi, GPS, and the like. In addition, when a user attaches a companion device such as a smart watch, i.e., an external device, when the user walks the arm, the pendulum movement is performed in a certain form, and the activation time of the pendulum movement And compare the positional change of the electronic device during the corresponding time to determine whether the user is moving. When the user moves using the transportation means, the method of using the sensor of the electronic device or using the position information may not be suitable as the tracking method. That is, in the case of such a mission, it may be determined to combine the received data at the companion device (external device) and the electronic device to track whether or not to perform the mission. That is, the tracking means (the method indicated by the tracking ID) is not limited to referring to a specific sensor or a specific data type, and may mean a combination of one or more data / methods for monitoring whether or not to perform a mission. For example, based on location information of an electronic device, only the data in which the location of the electronic device is within a range of +/- 4 km per hour (typical adult walking speed) +/- 1 km may be collected. As another example, the tracking means may be associated with an application or a server. For example, if a user is given a mission of "Attend active participation in an alcohol dependence therapy meeting", it is determined whether or not a user arrives at a place where a meeting is performed by GPS or the like. It can be tracked by receiving a check application or activity record entered by the meeting leader from the server.

Hereinafter, specific scenarios according to various embodiments of the present invention will be described. The following scenarios are not intended to limit the various embodiments of the present invention and should be considered in view of describing particular embodiments of the various embodiments. Such description is exemplary and can be variously modified at the level of ordinary skill in the art.

Scenario 1

Scenarios that provide a customized mission that is optimized for the user can work as follows. The electronic device can receive user information from a user, an external device, a sensor, or an external server through the input unit 410. For example, the information provided to the user may be used to collect information that the user is lacking in momentum. This operation can be performed through an application installed in the electronic device.

The electronic device may determine the mission to be provided to the user automatically based on information obtained in the application (e.g., lack of user movement), or by a user request (e.g., a mission request entry). For example, the input unit 410 of the electronic device may provide user input to the data processing unit 435 based on whether a mission request has occurred or information on which a mission should be presented is received.

The data processing unit 435 may store user characteristics (e.g., lack of exercise) and determine the mission and tips that match the user characteristics. The data processing unit 435 can determine the mission based on the above-described data set. The data processing unit 435 may receive and update the entire mission list or the entire data set from a specialized group such as a medical institution, a public agency, or an external server.

The data processing unit 435 can confirm a score corresponding to a specific category (for example, an exercise category) for mission determination. In this process, the data processing unit 435 can use the information about the user provided from the input unit 410 (for example, the information that the user is underworking state and the information of the user related thereto). The user class (or the user's score) of the category can be determined based on the user information. The data processing unit 435 can determine the mission based on the rating or score of the user.

The data processing unit 435 can provide the determined mission to the output control unit 433. For example, based on the user information of lack of exercise, a mission such as " 5,000 walking a day " can be determined and provided. When the trigger event occurs, the output control unit 433 can transmit the data to the application. In one embodiment, the trigger event is that a particular mission has been delivered to the output control 433, the data may be a " 5,000 walk per day " mission, and the application may be the application from which the user originally requested the mission.

The application can provide a customized mission to the user using the output unit 420 including means for displaying the mission provided from the output control unit 433 or voice guidance.

In various embodiments, based on the user's request or various information received by the electronic device, the application associated with the mission provided to the user among the various applications can be selected. For example, an electronic device may have a variety of applications, such as an exercise mate, a food tracker, a walking mate, and the like, so that an application appropriate for the mission performed by the user is selected , The walking mate is selected so that the mission and mission help are displayed to the user and the execution status collected through the monitoring means is displayed to the user). In one embodiment, the electronic device receives user information via a separate information gathering application, or an information gathering engine running in an operating system, or in a separate virtual machine, determines the mission based on the user information, A method for monitoring, and an application to be used in performing a user's mission.

Scenario 2

The data processing unit 435 may determine a monitoring method for the user to track an operation for performing the provided mission. For example, if a mission of "5000 walking a day" is determined, the user's walking status can be monitored through a sensor such as a pedometer. If the data processing unit 435 monitors the execution of the mission through another monitoring method (for example, a method of dividing the moving distance to an average moving distance after the moving distance is grasped, or a user is provided with a paper reading) The mission execution state of the user can be monitored through the corresponding method.

The monitoring method determined by the data processing unit 435 may be transmitted to the output control unit 433 together with the mission. The output control unit 433 can transmit the mission and the mission monitoring method to the application that requested the mission.

The input unit 410 can receive data related to mission execution (for example, the system view data). The input unit 410 may transmit data to the data processing unit 435 via the input control unit 431 when a specific trigger event occurs. For example, when a trigger event occurs in which the amount of walking for a day is updated by the user, the amount of the updated step may be provided to the data processing unit 435 through the input control unit 431.

If the data processing unit 435 does not have data to determine whether or not the completion of the mission should be completed (for example, if the data processing unit 435 does not have the amount of data to be executed during one day) (For example, requesting a day's worth of meter view data). The input unit 410 may provide the data to the data processing unit 435 through the input control unit 431.

The data processing unit 435 can determine whether or not the mission is completed based on the provided data. If it is judged that the user has accomplished the mission (for example, it can be judged that the user has walked 5000 or more), the output control unit 433 can notify that the mission has been completed. In this case, the exit control unit 433 can provide a compensation message or the like corresponding to the success of the mission to the application. The data processing unit 435 may generate, update, manage, or store user-related scores based on the provided data (e.g., a day's worth) or information based on the provided data (e.g., mission success or failure). For example, the data processing unit 435 may upwardly adjust (e.g., +3) the user score in the category (e.g., motion) if the mission is successful.

The data processing unit 435 can further set a new mission based on the updated information. For example, when the user achieves the " walk 5000 walk a day " mission, he can newly set the " walk 5200 walk a day " mission and provide it to the application through the output control unit 433. The output unit 420 may provide the user with the newly set mission together with the compensation message described above.

Scenario 3.

The electronic device may receive information (e.g., act 710) from a variety of sensors or external servers, such as a paper or environmental information server, and determine the mission based on the information (e.g., act 710) Operation 720).

For example, if the user's journalistic or medical record data received from an external healthcare provider server, or the user's walking habits measured through a sensor or the like, is shifted to the left or right, then the electronic device will " You can provide the mission of "Walk more than you can see." In various embodiments, the electronic device may use the acceleration sensor as a monitoring method (e.g., act 730) to determine a walking habit that is biased to the left / right during a walk. When the left or right side of the body can not be judged by using only the acceleration sensor, the hand holding the device or the wearable device is grasped by using a sensor for measuring the bezel pressure and the like, . Further, it is possible to judge the walking which is biased to the left or the right based on the information received from the pressure sensor (for example, a kind of external device) attached to the shoe.

The electronic device can monitor the walking habits using an acceleration sensor and one or more auxiliary sensors. For example, if the electronic device recognizes that the user has started walking using an acceleration sensor, an assistive sensor, such as a pedometer, may be used to monitor the walking habits (e.g., act 740).

With the start of monitoring, the electronic device can display on the screen of the electronic device an image through which an imbalance of the body occurs to the left or right. In various embodiments, the electronic device may provide a signal (e.g., a left side) when it is connected to a device such as an earphone or a headset (e.g., (E. G., Action 755). ≪ / RTI >

In various embodiments, if the user is perceived to be in a position that is judged to be a steep slope during execution of a mission using a bicycle or a motorcycle, a guideline such as " Reduce speed " may be provided. For example, an electronic device fixed to a bicycle or the like can acquire inclination information of the electronic device using an inertial sensor, and when the electronic device is tilted by a predetermined reference value or more, it is determined that the electronic device has entered a ramp, can do. The acceleration sensor can determine whether the user is slowing down and continue to provide notifications until a reasonable speed is reached.

The above example can be provided in one mission. For example, the electronic device may provide such guidance even when the mission is in operation, but may be based on information received via the sensor, even if no mission is being provided or a completely separate mission is being performed You can provide a mission corresponding to "Reduce speed". Such a mission may include a data set that includes an inclination and velocity information that is seen through an electronic device, a mission to reduce speed, a conditional monitoring time until a situation such as a tracker corresponding to an acceleration sensor, .

In various embodiments, the electronic device receives weather information at a location where the user is located, receives information using a UV sensor or the like (e.g., act 710), and if it is determined that exercise is not appropriate in the field , And provide a mission to take a break in the room (e.g., act 720). The electronic device can determine the ultraviolet ray value through the UV sensor by a monitoring method for such a mission or determine by monitoring method that the user is in a rest state through a heart rate sensor such as HRM (heart rate monitor) For example, operation 730). In this case, if the electronic device determines that the mission has been completed (that is, when the ultraviolet ray value is reduced or the user's heart rate is stabilized), the electronic device may appropriately recommend an appropriate message Compensation can be provided.

Scenario 4.

The electronic device can receive information on the degree of moisture content, sebum, elasticity, keratin, wrinkles, and brightness through a paper document through a paper-reading corresponding to a category related to skin care, And may access the medical institution server to receive data (e.g., act 710). For example, skin moisture can be judged based on measurement results of the skin's electrical properties using high-frequency currents, or can be measured through infrared spectra. The sebum is an optical sensor, the elasticity is measured by a vibration sensor, and the pores and wrinkles can be judged by analyzing images taken through a camera.

Based on the received data, the electronic device can determine, for example, "set the ambient humidity above a certain level" for dry skin or "visit the skin care room at least once a week". Or you can download the mission "Send skin measurement data at least once a day" from the expert server. Or, for skin with low elasticity, you can decide on a mission like "Take a lot of collagen-containing food." Alternatively, for a burning or sensitive skin, a mission such as " reduce outdoor activities with ultraviolet rays to less than one hour " can be determined (e.g., act 720).

The electronic device may determine a monitoring method for monitoring the performance of the determined mission (e.g., act 730). For example, the ambient humidity may be determined to be monitored via a temperature and humidity sensor. The electronic device can determine a specific method for monitoring, for example, periodically monitoring the temperature / humidity sensor every 30 minutes, determining the location information of the user, and operating the temperature / humidity sensor every time the location movement occurs.

Skin care shop visits can be monitored using a location sensor or a map application. In this case, since the period of one week is set, the monitoring information in units of one week can be used. The electronic device may also be monitored along with the total duration of the mission (e.g., a weekly visit for two months).

The measurement data transmission may be determined to monitor the utilization of the skin measurement sensor and whether the sensed data is transmitted. The food (collagen) intake can be monitored through a food tracker application or user inquiry. The ultraviolet light may be monitored through the UV sensor (e.g., act 740).

The electronic device may store (e. G., Act 770), update the database (e.g., act 771), and perform a mission A new mission may be presented relative to the previous (e.g., act 720), the run results may be scored, and a mission based on the user score may be presented. For example, if the skin hydration degree is increased, a mission may be further provided to increase the water uptake to a higher grade.

Scenario 5.

The electronic device can monitor the movement of the user through an acceleration sensor, or detect the user's sleeping or non-sleeping state by an electroencephalogram or heartbeat sensor, a heartbeat sensor, a skin temperature sensor, or a GSR sensor. The above sensors can be used to measure sleep efficiency (e.g., how much the user is sleeping). Information related to sleep can also be measured through user documentation (e.g., act 710).

The electronic device may determine a mission, such as " Sleep for 8 hours or more " if the user is determined to be insufficient sleep based on the received user information. If the user is determined not to take a good night's sleep, he or she can determine a combination mission, such as "Do not exercise 2 hours before sleep, lower the light intensity, lower the noise". For a user with an irregular sleeping time, it is possible to determine a mission such as "Do not take a nap" or "Take a sleep at 11:00 pm" (eg, act 720).

The electronic device may determine a method for monitoring mission performance (e.g., act 730). For example, in the case of a mission such as "take more than 8 hours of sleep", the usage time of the electronic device can be determined by the monitoring method. For example, if there is no input from the user from 11 pm to 7:30 am the next day, the electronic device may recognize that the user has accomplished the mission. In various embodiments, the electronic device may determine a user's EEG measurement by a monitoring method. In this case, the electronic device senses the user's brain wave to determine whether the user is in a sleep state. In addition, various sensors can be used.

In the case of missions such as "Do not exercise 2 hours before sleep, lower the illumination, lower the noise", the electronic device can measure the user's heart rate through the HRM sensor, measure the illuminance through the illuminance sensor, Measurements can be determined by monitoring methods.

In the case of a mission such as "Do not take a nap" or "Take a sleep at 11 pm", if the user is perceived to be sleeping in a time zone other than the afternoon or anticipated sleep time, (E. G., Act 755). ≪ / RTI >

Scenario 6.

The electronic device can collect information related to the user's life, the location of the user's main activity, and the user's overall life habits. For example, a fatigue measurement or an inquiry through SPO2 (oxygen saturation) measurement can be received (e.g., operation 710) of a user's life through an external server.

For example, an electronic device may be a "do not go to a bar" if the user is determined to drink a lot of alcohol, a user who frequently makes an impulse purchase, For users who feel that they are "sitting in the chair in the right position," and for users with poor posture, "the balance of the body is biased to the left. (E.g., correct posture), and for a stressed user, determine a mission such as " Listen to quiet music " (e.g., act 720).

The electronic device can use the location information of the user using the GPS or the map application to monitor the performance of the mission such as " Do not go to the bar ". Regarding the purchase habit, it is possible to measure the time taken from when the user's financial status information and the intention of settlement (for example, monitoring the situation in which the purchased item is placed in the shopping cart) is detected until the actual settlement occurs.

In connection with the performance of the mission related to the fatigue, the electronic device can determine the tense state of the user with a sensor attached to a chair or a sensor attached to a garment, or can periodically measure the SPO2 or EEG by a monitoring method.

In order to monitor the performance of the mission related to the posture, the electronic device monitors the deviation of the posture using a sensor, such as a pressure sensor attached to a shoe or a chair, or a magnetic field sensor for determining the curvature of the vertebrae, as a tracker (E. G., Operation 730).

An electronic device is an encouraging way of a mission, for example, when a user's location is recognized as a bar, a message such as "Is the current place selling mainstream?" Or " Along with an encouraging message to provide family photos. For example, if you have unplanned spending, you might say, "Your current balance is XXX. (E. G., Action 755). ≪ / RTI >

Scenario 7.

The electronic device can identify the disease the user has based on information received from an external server, such as a medical journal or a medical institution. For example, if the user is suffering from asthma, allergies, diabetes, or high blood pressure, or if there is information about the prescription drug, then the information may be obtained as user information (e.g., act 710).

The electronic device may determine a customized mission based on the acquired user information. For example, if you have asthma or allergies, you can provide a mission such as "Stay in a low dust environment" or "Turn your cleaner at least once a day." For patients with skin allergies, they can provide a mission such as " Rinse more than four times during laundry " (e.g., act 720).

In the case of a user taking the medicine, the electronic device can provide the medication time, the type of medicine, and the food to be avoided in the mission. The electronic device can provide a mission such as "check blood pressure / blood sugar at 3 o'clock every day and send it to your doctor" for hypertension or diabetes patients. Such a mission may be entered or presented by a primary care physician, or a medical institution server (e.g., act 720).

The electronic device may be a method of monitoring fine dust, and it may be determined to use a sensor that measures the degree of light scattering by dust using a laser. Alternatively, it may be a monitoring method to periodically receive the fine dust concentration from a peripheral device, such as a household appliance or an air cleaner, which is located in the vicinity of the user or in association with the user terminal or registered in the user terminal. The electronic device may also determine (e. G., Operation 730) the monitoring method to receive the number of times the clean water is performed or the number of times the rinse is used during washing in conjunction with a device such as a cleaner or a washing machine.

Electronic devices are a method of monitoring food that should be avoided, and applications such as food trackers can be used. The electronic device can also provide a UI to take the drug at a particular time in connection with the mission to take the drug and use a response to it (e.g., the time of taking the actual drug) as a monitoring method . Further, the electronic device can determine the data received from an electronic device or a peripheral device (e.g., a blood pressure / blood glucose sensing device held by a primary care physician) by a monitoring method in connection with the check of blood glucose or blood pressure (for example, 730).

Scenario 8.

The electronic device may receive information about the user's learning level (e.g., grade or curriculum) from a group of experts or a server such as an educational institution. Or information about the user's concentration through an EEG sensor (e. G., Operation 710).

The electronic device may provide a mission (e.g., act 720), such as " Focus for 10 minutes " for a student with poor concentration. Concentration can be measured by EEG. In this case, the monitoring method can be an EEG sensing for 10 minutes. Alternatively, the captured image may be analyzed by activating the camera, and the concentration of the user may be monitored by analyzing the user's movement (e.g., act 730). When the user achieves the mission, he or she can extend the time and provide the mission over the previous mission. In this case, the monitoring method may be the same as before, or may be changed compared to the previous one. For example, in the case of a mission that measures the user's concentration for two hours, the concentration can be determined by relaxing the criteria rather than by measuring for 10 minutes. The electrode for EEG measurement may be attached to a wearable device, for example, a spectacle device such as Google Glass, a hat, or an earphone.

The electronic device may provide the mission with learning to a certain degree of progress (e.g., act 720). In this case, the monitoring method may be determined by a user who confirms that the learning has been completed. However, when the user learns by using an application or an online learning program, the monitoring method can determine the reception of the information on the learning result of the user (for example, operation 730).

Scenario 9

The electronic device may share user information or a mission provided to the user with other users.

The electronic device can determine the mission of "Stay relaxed" (eg, act 720) for patients with hypertension or older elderly people. The electronic device may share the determined mission with another designated user (e.g., a family member, friend, or primary caregiver). The user's blood pressure and stable state are monitored by a blood pressure monitor, a heart rate sensor (e.g., act 730), etc. (e.g., act 740) , Collapsed monitored by an acceleration sensor) can be shared to designated users when they are monitored. Although not shown, an electronic device may share a user mission with other users. For example, a user can join a "100km meeting" to share a mission with other users. The mission can be monitored by GPS or meter view, and the mission process can also be shared with other users of the meeting. Although not shown, the users who share the mission can obtain the ranking of the meeting through the external server, and exchange messages or rewards with each other.
