As shown, the system for providing a personalized lunch box service according to the present invention includes a user's smartphone, a mobile device connected to the user's smartphone, and a customized order server connected through the user's smartphone or PC.

The system for providing a personalized lunch box service according to the present invention transmits the user's health information input or accumulated in the user's smart phone to the customized order server, and the customized order server recommends a lunch box suitable for the user, and selects the user's health information from the recommended menu. It is characterized by allowing you to order a customized lunch box by additionally inputting options according to your taste.

The customized order server generates and delivers information related to the production of customized lunch box orders and information regarding delivery to the cooking company.

The system for providing a personalized lunch box service according to the present invention acquires biometric information, including the user's body information and exercise information, and environmental information on weather and air quality, derives the nutritional ingredients necessary for the user from these, and derives the corresponding nutrition. It is characterized by composing a menu that satisfies the ingredients and recommending it to the user so that the user can order a customized lunch box.

The user's physical information may include the user's height, weight, presence of disease, information about the user's genes, information about the user's protein, etc., and may include information about the body's vitals acquired in real time. Additionally, information on the user's physical activity (exercise, sleep, etc.) measured through wearable devices may also be included.

For example, if the user orders a lunch box for 3 days later, the nutritional information required for the user 3 days later is calculated based on the user's activity level after 3 days, which is derived from the weather after 3 days and the user's lifestyle pattern. Here, nutritional information refers to information consisting of nutritional ingredients and the amount of the nutritional ingredients. Nutritional information may include total calories, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, sugars, sodium, cholesterol, saturated fatty acids, trans fatty acids, dietary fiber, moisture, etc.

Hereinafter, each process of the personalized lunch box service provision system according to the present invention will be examined in more detail.

Figure 2 is a diagram for explaining the input of a user's biometric information and environmental information.

The system for providing a personalized lunch box service according to the present invention is characterized by receiving the user's biometric information and environmental information and deriving nutritional information necessary for the user.

The user's biometric information is transmitted to the customized order server through the user's smartphone.

The user's biometric information is age. It may include height, weight, information about diseases, information about diet, information about physical activity, information about genes, information about the user's protein characteristics, etc. This is to allow the characteristics or risk factors of the user's body to be reflected from information about genes or the user's proteins.

This information can be accumulated on the smartphone through the user's direct input, or can be measured through a wearable device and accumulated on the user's smartphone.

Wearable devices may include smartwatches or smart bands. Wearable devices measure the user's activity level and body information in real time and transmit it to the smartphone.

Biological signals that can be measured by wearable devices include pulse, BP, temperature, activity, hydration, sleep stages, seizures, and respiratory rate. (Respiration rate), O2 Saturation, Blood CO2, Blood glucose, ECG (single-lead), Cardiac output, Stroke Volume, Stress These include stress, heart-rate variability, and electrodermal activity.

Wearable devices can analyze changes in biosignals before and after food intake to determine the impact on the user's health.

This influence is accumulated as data in the user's smartphone application and can be used to recommend recipes and menus in the future.

For example, if positive changes are detected in the user's biosignals after consuming a lunch box, this can be reflected as a weight in recipe and menu recommendations.

In addition, the user's location can be confirmed through the location information of the smartphone, and when the user's location information is confirmed, weather information and atmospheric information corresponding to the location can be obtained.

Through weather information and atmospheric information, the nutritional information needed by the user on the day the user eats the lunch box can be derived more accurately.

For example, by measuring air pollution information in places where users frequently visit, necessary nutrients can be calculated in conjunction with disease information, and nutrients to prevent colds and other seasonal infectious diseases can be calculated using temperature and weather information.

Additionally, the nutritional information needed by the user may vary depending on the temperature and humidity of the day the lunch box is consumed.

For example, when temperature and humidity are high, the probability of catching a cold increases, so menus that help improve immunity or menus that help maintain body temperature can be recommended first.

In addition, when temperature and humidity are high, the probability of getting food poisoning increases, so you can prioritize menus with foods or recipes that are safe from food poisoning.

The user accesses the customized order server through an application installed and running on the smartphone and orders a customized lunch box.

Users can register as members by entering personal information on the server and access the customized order server by logging in.

When a user accesses the customized order server through a smartphone, the user's biometric information and environmental information accumulated on the user's smartphone are transmitted to the customized order server.

Figures 3 and 4 are diagrams for explaining the user's input of additional information.

Referring to Figure 3, the user accesses the customized order server through an application installed on the user's smartphone, performs membership registration, and enters basic information such as age and height and additional disease information such as the user's current disease or family history. You can.

The entered information about the user's personal disease or family history of hereditary disease is transmitted to the customized order server. For example, if the user has diabetes or has a family history of diabetes, a menu is recommended taking the diabetes factor into consideration when deriving the user's nutritional information.

In the case of diabetes, the balance of sugar, protein, and fat should be emphasized compared to a regular diet to prevent a rapid rise in blood sugar levels.

Referring to FIG. 4, FIG. 4 shows a state in which the user's diet information is input.

Users can set a diet goal and enter their current weight, target weight, and diet period.

The entered diet information is transmitted to the customized order server, and the customized order server derives the total calories by considering the diet goal, configures the menu appropriately, and recommends it.

Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating part of the menu selection process by way of example.

When the user inputs the date and time to eat the lunch box, the customized order server recommends a plurality of menus to the user, and the user selects from the recommended plural menus to complete the order of the customized lunch box.

Recommendation of lunch boxes by the customized order server is made in the order of the main menu and sub-menu, and once the type and size (quantity) of the main menu are selected, the sub-menu is recommended accordingly.

As shown, selection of the menu can be made through selection of main ingredients and selection of cooking method. Of course, like selecting a general menu, selection can be made through the name of the completed menu.

For example, if you select pork as the main ingredient and grilling as the cooking method, grilled pork dishes such as duruchigi and bulgogi are recommended.

Taking a Korean lunch box as an example, if you select the type and size (amount) of the main menu, the type and size (amount) of the sub menu (side dish) change accordingly.

For example, if the user selects pork cutlet as the main menu, let's look at the case where the size of the pork cutlet can be selected as large, medium, or small. If the user selects 'small' as the size of the pork cutlet, two sub-menus can be selected, and other fried foods such as French fries may be included among the two sub-menus. However, if the user selects 'large' as the size of the pork cutlet, only one sub-menu can be selected. You can only choose one, and the sub menu is limited to salad types.

This is for the balance of overall nutrients, and if the user wants to consume a lot of menus that suit his or her taste, the type and size of other menus can be adjusted accordingly.
