Such sensor technology is already well known in the art, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Meanwhile, the sensors 110, 120, and 130 used in the multi-sensor data processing apparatus 100 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention include only elements for sensing the corresponding signals and transmitting the signals, A memory for storing a signal, a computing device for computing data, and a display device for displaying a numerical value or a graph to a user may be omitted.

In the multi-sensor data processing apparatus 100 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the signals sensed by the sensors 110, 120 and 130 are transmitted to the sensor data processing terminal 200 to be described later, This is because the terminal 200 generates sleep data, biometric data, and exercise data for the user based on raw data composed of signals transmitted by the sensors 110, 120, and 130.

However, the multi-sensor data processing apparatus 100 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention needs to identify which sensor the signals sensed by the sensors 110, 120, and 130 are transmitted. Accordingly, each signal transmitted by each of the sensors 110, 120, and 130 is transmitted to each of the sensors 110, 120, and 130 when the sensors 110, 120, and 130 are connected to the sensor data processing terminal 200. [ ) Can be mounted.

2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a sensor data processing terminal of a multi-sensor data processing apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the sensor data processing terminal 200 may include a signal receiving unit 210, a sensor data analyzing unit 250, and a sensor data transmitting unit 290.

The signal receiving unit 210 receives signals transmitted from the sensors 110, 120, and 130. The sensors 110, 120 and 130 and the signal receiver 210 may be connected to each other via a wire communication interface or a wireless communication interface (e.g., UART, RS-232, I2C, SPI, Analog Interface, Digital Interface, zigbee, -direct, Bluetooth, custom RF, etc.).

Signals transmitted by the sensors 110, 120, and 130 may be transmitted in a digital or analog manner, in the form of stream data of a continuous signal, encrypted as needed. Therefore, it is preferable that the signal receiving unit 210 is equipped with a buffering function for eliminating the bottleneck of signals transmitted by the sensors 110, 120 and 130.

In order to remove noise from a signal transmitted from the signal receiving unit 210 to the sensor data analyzing unit 250, a preprocessing unit 230 is disposed between the signal receiving unit 210 and the sensor data analyzing unit 250 . The preprocessing unit 230 can remove noise mounted on the signal by a preprocessing method such as a low-pass filter that passes only a frequency signal of a specific frequency or less.

Meanwhile, the sensor data analyzer 250 generates sleep data, biometric data, and exercise data based on raw data composed of signals transmitted from the sensors 110, 120, and 130.

That is, the sensor data analyzer 250 analyzes the raw data including the activity signals of the user during the sleep sensed by the sleep sensor 110, generates sleep data that can measure activity and sleep quality of the user during sleep do. The sensor data analyzer 250 analyzes the raw data including the biological signals detected by the biological sensor 120 and generates biometric data that can be used to determine the user's biological condition. In addition, the sensor data analyzer 250 analyzes the raw data formed by the motion signals sensed by the motion sensor 130, and generates motion data that can measure the amount of motion of the user.

As described above, since the signals transmitted by the sensors 110, 120, and 130 can be transmitted in the form of a data stream, the amount of signals transmitted to the sensor data analysis unit 250 is large, It may be difficult to transmit the data to the mobile station 10.

Therefore, the sensor data analysis unit 250 needs to compress the above-described data to reduce the amount of data. Accordingly, the sensor data analysis unit 250 can perform centering, whitening, dimensionality reduction, and the like in a manner of reducing data complexity. In addition, the sensor data analysis unit 250 may reduce the complexity of data by various methods such as Principal Component Analysis, Singular Value Decomposition, Infomax, Fast ICA, JADE, statistical methods, FFT, .

Here, the sensor data processing terminal 200 may further include a memory unit 270. The memory unit 270 has addresses assigned to the respective sensors 110, 120 and 130. The data processed by the sensor data analysis unit 250 is stored in addresses assigned to the sensors 110, 120 and 130 .

The sensor data transmitting unit 290 may transmit the data generated by the sensor data analyzing unit 250 to the external terminal 10 such as a smart phone. In this case, when the sensor data processing terminal 200 and the external terminal 10 are connected by a wireless communication interface, there is a limitation on the amount of wireless data to be transmitted and the reliability of the wireless communication interface. Therefore, It is preferable to be mounted.

The external terminal 10 is connected to the server 20 and the data transmitted from the sensor data processing terminal 200 to the external terminal 10 are compared and analyzed with the data stored in the server 20, It can be used to monitor living body condition, momentum, and so on.

Thereafter, the sleep sensor 110 senses the movement of the user in the bed and transmits the sensed signal to the sensor data processing terminal 200.

The sensor data processing terminal 200 identifies the signal as a signal transmitted from the sleep sensor 110 according to the sleep sensor identification signal and outputs the received signal to an address specified in the sleep sensor 110 of the memory unit 270 . In addition, the sensor data processing terminal 200 analyzes the signal after the sleep sensor identification signal into sleep data that can be used to measure the activity of the user during sleep, and supplies the sleep data to the sleep sensor 110 of the memory unit 270 And stores it as an address.

Here, the user can previously connect or pair the sensor data processing terminal 200 and the external terminal 10, and operate the sensor data processing terminal 200 and the external terminal 10 together. Therefore, the sleeping data is transmitted to the external terminal 10, and the external terminal 10 can compare the sleeping data with the data stored in the server 20 and display it.

At this time, the acquired sleeping data can be confirmed through the external terminal 10.

On the other hand, the user can acquire the exercise data by connecting the sensor data processing terminal 200 to the exercise sensor 130.

That is, the user removes the sensor data processing terminal 200 used to acquire the sleeping data from the sleeping surface sensor 110 and carries it thereon. The user then carries out the exercise (for example, a cycle) Can be connected to the mounted motion sensor 130. The motion sensor 130 transmits a motion sensor identification signal so that the sensor data processing terminal 200 can recognize the motion sensor 130. Then, the motion sensor 130 senses the amount of use of the exercise device and transmits the sensed signal to the sensor data processing terminal 200.

The sensor data processing terminal 200 identifies the signal as a signal transmitted from the motion sensor 130 according to the motion sensor identification signal and outputs the received signal to an address specified in the motion sensor 130 of the memory unit 270 . At the same time, the sensor data processing terminal 200 analyzes the signal after the motion sensor identification signal as motion data that can measure momentum, and stores the motion data in the address specified in the motion sensor 130 of the memory unit 270 .

The user connects the motion sensor 130 to the sensor data processing terminal 200 and acquires the analyzed sleep data by collecting signals transmitted by the motion sensor 130 to the sensor data processing terminal 200 have. At this time, the acquired sleeping data can be confirmed through the external terminal 10.

As described above, the multiple sensor data processing apparatus according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention does not require a separate pairing process for connection with each sensor, and the sensor data processing terminal 200 is connected to the sleep sensor 110, The body surface sensor 110, the body sensor 120, and the motion sensor 130 are distinguished from other sensors by only connecting the sensor 120 and the motion sensor 130 to each other so that sleep data, .
