Description

Physiological resonance stimulation method and wearable system using the same

The present invention relates to a physiological resonance stimulation method and a wearable system using the same, and more particularly to a physiological resonance stimulation method and a wearable system that are adjusted based on a physiological signal, particularly an electroencephalogram signal.

As modern people pay more and more attention to their own health conditions, as well as the need to understand the physiological state in real time, the wear form physiological detection device has been paid more and more attention and has gradually flourished.

One of the main purposes of the wearable physiological detection device in the wearable mode is to be able to perform physiological tests at any time in daily life. Therefore, whether the wearing form and the wearing behavior can be naturally integrated into daily life without causing inconvenience is always used. One of the important factors that can be accepted, therefore, the various wearable physiological testing devices currently seen are aimed at combining wearable accessories that are common in daily life, such as watches, earphones, and the like.

Another optional wear accessory is glasses. In recent years, glasses have no longer been limited to wearing by myopia patients, and have gradually become decorative accessories. They are common and frequently used accessories in daily life. Therefore, the use of glasses as a medium for continuously wearing physiological detection devices is also a suitable choice. It also helps to increase user acceptance.

Moreover, since the wearing position of the eyeglass structure is the head and is disposed on the front of the face, more kinds of physiological signals can be obtained with respect to other wearing structures, for example, when the electrodes are set, the brain electric signal can be obtained. , EO, ECG, EMG, Skin Telecommunications No., and when the light sensor is set, pulse signals and blood oxygen signals can be obtained.

However, since the glasses are accessories worn on the face, they are not only quite obvious, but also extremely easy to affect the appearance of the user, and therefore, unlike other wearing accessories that are more easily hidden or less noticeable, such as watches, Headphones, etc., when the appearance of the glasses is abrupt, or can not meet the user's aesthetic requirements, the degree of reception will be greatly reduced. For example, many smart glasses are introduced on the market, although powerful, but it looks awkward. It is not easy to use in general daily life, and thus the popularity cannot be improved. Therefore, although the glasses are indeed suitable for the structure of the physiological detecting device, they are relatively rare.

Therefore, if a spectacles structure can be provided, it has a physiological signal capturing function without sacrificing appearance, and it is believed that it will greatly contribute to the acceptance of the general public.

Generally, the glasses structure commonly used in daily life is mainly divided into metal material glasses and plastic material glasses according to different materials used. Among them, rubber materials have various options, for example, Cellulose Acetate, Celluloid, Nitrifying fiber, plastic, etc., are all kinds of rubber materials commonly used in making glasses. In these materials, in general, the glasses structure made of metal material, acetate fiber, and celluloid material can provide better texture and The shape design, for example, the metal material has high plasticity and can exhibit the visual effect of the unique texture of the metal. In addition, the acetate fiber material is also a material with high plasticity, and the color selection is various, and the gloss and transparency which are not possessed by the plastic material can be exhibited. It can also be mixed with other materials, such as metal materials, to achieve different styles. In addition, celluloid materials are durable, hard, lustrous, non-deformable, and re-polished. They can also be mixed with metals. As for plastic materials, because of the poor texture and plasticity, it is often used to make chase Cheap glasses. Therefore, in the current market, the most commonly used and most popular are made of metal, acetate, celluloid Glasses made of enamel material.

In addition, in terms of process, acetate fiber and celluloid material are completely different from plastic materials due to the nature of the material itself. Among them, when the eyeglass structure is made of acetate fiber, various processes such as cutting, stacking, and polishing are started from the plate material, and when the celluloid material is used, the mass production process is started from a block-shaped substrate. For example, cutting, trimming, polishing, etc., after which the eyeglass structure is formed, and if it is desired to mix other materials, such as metal, in the eyeglass structure of the two materials, it will be embedded, clamped, and/or Insertion and other methods to combine with it, can be used as a support, and can also create different visual effects and shapes. As for the plastic material, the lens is produced by injection molding.

At present, in order to obtain physiological signals through the glasses structure to obtain physiological signals, the first problem is how to set up the circuit in the eyeglass structure, because the electrical connection between the physiological sensing component and the control circuit must be achieved. Extraction of physiological signals. In particular, the head is the only possible location for obtaining the EEG signal and the EO signal. Therefore, the physiological detecting device in the form of glasses has the possibility of performing brain electric signals and/or EO signal extraction, and for the eyeglass structure, The sampling position of the two signals is the position of the frame unit or the temples on both sides of the head and between the eyes. Therefore, in order to achieve the electrode and circuit arrangement, the circuit can be used in the frame unit and the temple. Therefore, the natural way of knowing is to use plastic material glasses that can be produced by injection molding, so that the circuit can be wrapped in the frame unit and the temples, for example, to form a hollow casing for passing through. The line, or the use of plastic packaging circuit forming, etc., in addition, because the line needs to pass through the turning point, for example, using a flexible circuit board as a load, the intersection of the frame unit and the temple is usually subject to special design. However, as mentioned above, first of all, the texture provided by the plastic material can no longer be compared with the acetate fiber and the celluloid material. If further, The design of the frame part deviates from the general structural design in order to match the set circuit, which will have a great influence on the effect of wearing the vision, and therefore, it is difficult to be accepted by the consumer in the market.

Based on the above, the applicant believes that if the glasses-type physiological detection device is widely accepted by the general consumers, it is obvious that the lens structure that the texture and shape have been accepted and loved by the public must be adopted instead of letting Consumers are reluctant to accept glasses with poor texture and special shape, and, more importantly, if they can replace the glasses that are usually used, for example, vision correction glasses, sunglasses, blue glasses, etc., so that even Physiological testing can be carried out continuously and naturally in daily life, which will truly realize the best meaning of wearable physiological testing.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a spectacles structure that can obtain a physiological signal capture function without changing the structure of the original front frame unit.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an eyeglass structure having a physiological signal capturing function, wherein the relative positional change between the eyeglass temple and the frame unit determines the state of the circuitry for obtaining the physiological signal.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a combination of glasses having a physiological signal acquisition function, which utilizes the design of the original conductive portion of the eyeglass structure and the design of the combination module to impart a physiological signal acquisition function to the eyeglass structure.

A further object of the present invention is to provide a combination of glasses having a physiological signal capturing function, wherein the temple has a replaceable portion in the lens structure, and the replacement portion can be replaced by a different replacement portion. Or change the physiological signal capture function of the combination of glasses.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a combination of glasses having a physiological signal acquisition function, wherein the glasses structure can obtain a physiological signal acquisition function through a combination module combined with the temples.

When the glasses are worn on the face, the places that naturally come into contact include areas between the eyes, such as the bridge of the nose, the roots of the mountains, the vicinity of the temples on both sides of the head, the ears, and the head area near the ears, for example, above the ears. Or at the rear, usually, as long as a pair of glasses suitable for oneself is selected, the contact between these positions and the glasses can be naturally achieved without intentional force application. Therefore, if physiological sensing elements such as electrodes or light sensations can be used, The detector or the like is disposed at these positions, and the setting of the physiological sensing element is equal to the completion as long as the action of wearing the glasses is completed.

As for the types of electrophysiological signals that can be obtained, there are many possibilities. For example, the contact between the frame unit and the area between the eyes and the contact of the temples with the temples, ears, and/or the vicinity of the ear can simultaneously obtain the otoscope. No. and EEG signals; EEG signals can be obtained by contact between the temples on both sides and the skin of the head; and EMG signals or skin signals can be obtained through any two contact positions separated by a distance. possibility.

In the case that the glasses have such advantages, the present invention further provides for the use of the glasses structure for setting electrodes and obtaining physiological signals by providing the simplest, most convenient, and without affecting the appearance of the glasses, especially the appearance of the front frame unit. The concept of a sampling loop to enhance public acceptance.

It should be clarified that the spectacles structure described herein refers to a wear structure which is placed on the head by the auricle and the nose as a support point and which is in contact with the skin of the head and/or the ear. It is in the form of a lens with or without a lens, with or without a hinge structure, or it can be a variety of glasses for different purposes. For example, it can be general optical glasses, sunglasses, or special functions. Glasses, for example, Blu-ray glasses, Virtual Reality Glasses (VR Glasses), Augmented Reality Glasses (AR Glasses), and special glasses with display functions, in addition, some glasses for Adding a fixed effect will also provide a strap between the two temples. In addition, there is no limit to the position of the head/ear. For example, some glasses are also used for contact with the eyes for practical use or styling, for example, VR glasses. Other parts around are therefore possible forms, and these are all areas of application of the present invention, so there is no limitation.

First of all, in the concept according to the first aspect of the present invention, the main emphasis is how to respectively provide the frame unit and a mirror without changing the frame unit of the general eyeglass structure and the joint structure between the temples. Conduction between the electrodes on the foot or on the two temples and the circuitry.

In the structure of the glasses, the joint between the frame unit and the temples can be said to be a very important part of creating a visual effect. It is also one of the key points when the user selects the structure of the glasses. Therefore, if the structure here is not changed, The integrity of the frontal visual effects of the frame unit will be of great help.

In general, no matter which material is used, the joint between the temple and the frame unit is a common way to achieve a relative position change between the frame and the frame unit. Is an indispensable component of all eyeglass structures, and The most common of these is the metal hinge structure. As shown in FIG. 1, a spectacles structure 10 utilizes a metal hinge structure 18 to achieve a bond between a frame unit 12 and a temple 14 and, therefore, In the conception, if a metal hinge structure can be used as part of the circuit, the electrical signal transmission between the temple and the frame unit can be naturally achieved.

Here, it should be clarified that the so-called metal hinge structure means that the position of the temple relative to the frame unit is changed by at least a metal member that is in contact with the frame unit and a metal member that is in contact with the temple. For example, unfolding and folding will vary depending on the design of the various eyeglass structures, but any change in position can be achieved within the scope of the present invention. For example, as shown in FIG. 2A, one of the accessories can be placed. The form of the other accessory, or the form in which the two components are combined with each other through a shaft center as shown in FIG. 2B, can be of any form, without limitation. In addition, the hinge structure can also be made of other conductive materials, such as conductive rubber, conductive silicone, etc., or can be implemented as a mixed material, which can be formed to transmit telecommunications only when the temples are deployed. The number is connected, and there is no limit.

In addition, instead of changing the appearance of the joint between the frame unit and the temple, other methods may be used. For example, a pair of metal contacts may be respectively disposed on the frame unit and on the temple. Further, an electrical connection member is disposed between the two contact members, thereby achieving electrical connection, which is also easy to implement without affecting the appearance; or the metal contact member and the electrical connector can be integrated into one body, that is, Integrating a portion of the electrical connector with the metal contact on the frame unit and integrating the other portion of the electrical connector with the metal contact on the temple, for example, by direct casting, in which case , only two metal contacts need to be connected to each other; or, if the temple or frame unit has been implemented as a metal material, the metal contact is equal to the integrated lens and / or frame unit, just re Add an electrical connector. Therefore, it is all implementable and there is no limit.

Next, it is described how to use the metal hinge structure to give the electrophysiological signal extraction function of the glasses structure. It should be noted, however, that while the following embodiments are described using metal hinge structures, as is well known to those of ordinary skill in the art, and not by way of limitation, one of the metal contacts as described above may also be employed ( And with the structure of the electrical connection parts).

Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown a schematic view of a spectacles structure according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown, a spectacles structure 10 includes a frame unit 12, and two temples 14, 16 wherein the frame unit is The two mirror legs are respectively connected to each other through a metal hinge structure 18. In addition, the frame unit usually has two nose pads 122, 124 in the area between the eyes.

Furthermore, in order to obtain an electrophysiological signal from the user, the lens structure further includes two electrodes. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, one electrode 20 is disposed on the temple 14 and the other electrode 30 is disposed. On the single-sided nose pad 122, wherein, in particular, the electrode 30 is implemented to be further electrically connected to the metal hinge structure 18, and thus, by such a configuration, the metal hinge structure 18 is connected to the temple The circuitry 100 for controlling signal acquisition in 14 can be used to obtain electrophysiological signals, such as EEG signals, skin electrical signals, and/or EO signals.

In addition, alternatively, the electrode 30 may also be disposed on the frame unit near the nose pad to contact a position such as a mountain root, or other position on the frame unit that will contact the head, for example, around the eyelid; alternatively, The electrode 30 can also be disposed on the other side of the temple 16 in which case it is equally feasible to connect to the metal hinge structure (not shown) of the temple 16 and then to the metal hinge structure 18.

That is, through such a design, as long as the combination of the frame unit and the temples The lens structure adopting the metal hinge structure can conveniently obtain the electrophysiological signal extraction function without changing the structure and appearance of the joint, thereby providing the user with the physiological signal extraction function to match the selection. The possibility of the structure of the glasses.

As is well known, as shown in FIG. 3, the circuit system 100 may include, but is not limited to, a physiological signal acquisition circuit, a processor module, an analog digital converter, a filter, a battery, etc., which are required for physiological signal acquisition. The circuit and components, and for physiological signal acquisition, the physiological signal acquisition circuit needs to be electrically connected to the two electrodes. However, since they are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art, they are not described herein. In addition, it should be noted that the above circuits and components may be disposed at any position of the eyeglass structure, as long as electrical connections are made to each other, without limitation.

Next, how the electrodes, the metal hinge structure, and the circuit system are connected to each other will be described.

One option is to use the electrically conductive portion of the frame unit to achieve the connection. For example, a common type of eyeglass structure is a metal part in a frame unit, for example, the frame unit is formed of a metal material alone, or as shown in FIGS. 4A-4B, the metal part 32 in the frame unit is covered with Other materials, or the metal member 32 is embedded in other materials, and the position of the metal member in the frame unit also has various changes, for example, as shown in FIG. 4C, only in the upper or lower half of the frame unit. The metal part 32 is formed, and for the present invention, it is important that, in these designs, the metal part of the frame unit is connected to, or comprises, the metal part of the metal hinge structure that is in contact with the frame unit, Therefore, the electrodes disposed on the nose pad or at other positions of the frame can be naturally connected to the metal hinge structure through the metal portion of the frame unit.

Here, it should be noted that, based on different eyeglass design and process differences, as long as the conductive portion connected to the metal hinge structure is placed in the frame unit in the process of manufacturing the eyeglass structure, it is desired by the present invention. The subject matter stated is not limited to any form, for example, it may be metal The wire, or the hard or flexible circuit board, may also be a metal part having a shape, or a metal part as a frame supporting the main structure, and the electrically conductive part may be implemented to be connected between the two metal hinge structures. It is also possible to connect only between a single metal hinge structure and one or two nose pads, or to connect two metal hinge structures and one or two nose pads at the same time, without limitation.

Alternatively, the frame unit can be used to carry the electrically conductive portion. For example, the frame unit of one type of eyeglass structure is made of a non-conductive material, for example, a rubber material, in which case a metal can be used to achieve the metal. The connection of the hinge structure, for example, the additional conductive portion may be connected between the two metal hinge structures, or may be connected between a metal hinge structure and a nose pad, and may be changed according to different requirements; as for the externally conductive Part of the arrangement can also be different depending on the structure of the glasses. For example, it can be a metal wire hidden inside the frame unit, a metal film, etc., as long as it can be connected to the design of the metal hinge structure.

Among the above possibilities, it is just in line with the most commonly used types of glasses on the market today, one is metal glasses, the other is acetate or celluloid glasses, among which metal glasses are made of metal. The material is mainly used, that is, the metal material is used as the supporting main structure of the glasses, and for visual effects, modeling changes, etc., it is possible to provide other materials other than the metal material, for example, a rubber material, but generally, metal The overall material of the material glasses is made of metal material, including a frame unit, a temple, and a hinge structure for joining the frame unit and the temple.

As for the acetate or celluloid glasses, as mentioned above, the steps of placing metal parts in such materials have been made in the existing processes, for example, by means of clamping or embedding in such frames. Insert the metal parts of the frame or insert or embed them in such frames One of the purposes of this process is to strengthen the mechanical strength of the spectacles structure. Therefore, the metal parts used for placement in the spectacles structure will have a supporting effect. Under such a premise, as long as the metal parts to be placed are connected to the metal hinge structure, even the commonly used acetate or celluloid glasses can directly use the original metal parts in the glasses. Conductive portion to achieve electrical connection between the electrode and the circuitry.

Generally, when the frame has a metal component as a support, the metal hinge structure is formed directly on the metal component, and the metal component often has a metal extension for setting the nose pad. According to the actual structure, the frame unit of such a metal component itself has a metal hinge structure that transmits electricity from one end of the metal hinge structure to the other end, or transmits electricity from one end of the metal hinge structure to the nose pad. Ability (just replace the conductive nose pad), that is, such a frame unit can be directly used for physiological detection, no need to be processed on the frame unit in order to achieve electrical connection, thus, general consumption The glasses used in daily life can be used to obtain physiological signals, completely overturning the existing concept of glasses-based physiological testing devices.

Therefore, it can be seen from the above that through the concept of the present invention, the two glasses which are currently the most widely accepted on the market can achieve the arrangement between the electrode and the metal hinge structure disposed on the frame unit without changing the front appearance. Electrical connection.

Still further, after the electrodes in the frame unit have been connected to the metal hinge structure on one side, the metal hinge structure is then reconnected to the circuitry disposed on the temples.

One option is to use the electrically conductive portion of the temple to achieve the connection. For example, as mentioned above, metal temples use metal parts directly on the temples, and metal parts are often inserted or embedded in the temples of acetate or celluloid glasses for support or styling. Variation, and as long as the metal components of the temples are connected to or include the metal members of the metal hinge structure that are connected to the temples, the metal hinge structure can be naturally connected to the temples. Upper circuit system.

Here, it should be noted that, based on different eyeglass design and process differences, as long as it is in the process of manufacturing the eyeglass structure, the conductive portion connected to the metal hinge structure is placed in the temple, which is desired by the present invention. The stated subject matter is not limited to any form, for example, it may be a metal wire, or a hard or flexible circuit board, or may be a metal temple with a shape, or a metal member as a support, etc., and there is no limitation.

Alternatively, the temples can be used to carry the electrically conductive portion. For example, the temple of one type of eyeglass structure is made of a non-conductive material, for example, a rubber material, in which case a metal hinge can be achieved by applying a conductive portion. The connection between the structure and the electrode and the circuit system; as for the arrangement of the externally conductive portion, the same can be changed according to the structure of the glasses, for example, a metal wire hidden in the inner side of the temple, a metal film, etc., as long as the metal hinge is achieved. The structure is connected to the circuitry located on the temples without restrictions.

Here, in particular, since the relationship between the frame unit and the temple is used by using the metal hinge structure, the temple can be replaced, and in this case, it can be implemented by replacing the temple. The connection with the metal hinge structure, the electrode, and the circuit system, and such a manner is particularly advantageous for the eyeglass structure having the conductive portion in the front frame unit, as shown in FIG. 3D, in which the lens structure is The nose pads 122, 124 have been formed of a metal material, and the frame unit has included a metal member 32 connected between the two metal hinge structures 18 and connected to the nose pad. Therefore, at this time, as long as the temples are replaced, For example, put on the surface of the temple Providing an electrode, and a new temple with a circuit system and a circuit connected to the electrode and the metal temple structure in the temple, can immediately obtain the electrophysiological signal acquisition function of the common common glasses structure, and Importantly, since the temple is a visually less obvious part when worn relative to the frame unit located on the front of the face, the modeling effect of the glasses is not affected, and the temples are not involved in the glasses. The most important function, a lens setup, is definitely a way of doing so.

Furthermore, in addition to the way in which the electrodes are placed on the nose pad and the single-sided temples, the electrodes may be placed on the temples on both sides, or the number of electrodes may be increased, and electrodes may be provided on the nose pads and the temples on both sides. EEG signals and/or EO signals can also be obtained. When electrodes are provided on both sides of the temples, it is necessary to realize the connection between the electrodes and the circuit system through two metal hinge structures, that is, The frame unit and the temples on both sides must have a conductive portion connected to the metal hinge structure. In addition, the circuit system can be selectively disposed only on the one-side temple or dispersedly disposed on both sides of the temple. When the circuit system is dispersed on the mirror legs on both sides, the conductive portion of the temple on each side must be connected to the side metal structure and the side circuit system, and in this case, as described above, Of course, it is also possible to implement a method in which both temples are replaced.

Moreover, in addition to the above-mentioned setting options, the electrodes may have other arrangement modes for obtaining other physiological signals. For example, electrodes for contacting the upper limbs of the user may be disposed on the temples, and in this way, The electrocardiographic signal can be obtained by using the electrode contacting the head and the electrode contacting the upper limb. Here, in particular, the electrode for contacting the upper limb can be used in addition to the electroencephalogram electrode. The method may be formed, for example, by extending outward from the electrode on the inner side of the temple, or the electroencephalogram electrode may be directly formed on the inner side and the outer side as a continuous surface, and may be implemented in parallel or in series with one of the electroencephalogram electrodes. And because of brain telecommunications The difference between the amplitude of the number and the ECG signal is obvious, and even if it is shared, it does not affect the judgment of the signal.

Alternatively, electrodes may be added to the temples. For example, the single-sided temples are provided with two electrodes spaced apart from each other, for example, one inch apart, to additionally obtain skin electrical signals. On the other hand, such two electrodes Local electromyography signals, EEG signals, and EO signals near the electrodes can also be obtained; or, further, a photo sensor can be placed on the temples or frames to obtain blood physiological signals from the head, such as , pulse signal, blood oxygen concentration, etc.; or motion sensing elements, such as Accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetic sensor, to obtain the user's body movement News. Therefore, there are various options and no restrictions.

Among them, a special embodiment is that, according to the research results of the applicant, it is possible to use an electrode provided on the structure of the eyeglass to obtain the activity of the orbitofrontal cortex, thereby obtaining an electroencephalogram signal. The orbital frontal cortex is part of the prefrontal cortex, located lower than the eyelid. Therefore, when the electrode is placed on the nose pad or the upper edge of the frame unit, its activity can be detected. Since the electrodes are positioned close to the eyes, such as the nose pad and the upper edge of the frame unit, such an electrode arrangement also obtains an EOG signal.

In this case, when the other electrode is fitted, for example, it can be placed on one side of the temple, placed on the frame unit, or extended on the ear to obtain mixed eyelid frontal cortex activity and eye activity. Electrophysiological signals, because of the difference in signal strength and signal characteristics of EEG signals and EEG signals, as long as the electrophysiological signals are processed, for example, the EEG signals are removed, the eyelids can be obtained. EEG signals in the frontal cortex.

Because the cerebral cortex activity has a tendency to synchronize, the brain electrical signal of the frontal cortex of the eye can be used as a reference for judging the state of brain consciousness.

In general, there are two ways to measure brain electrical activity, including reference montage and bipolar montage. In the reference combination paradigm, it is common to set the reference electrode to a position where there is no electrical activity of the cerebral cortex, and the activity detecting electrode is disposed at a position corresponding to the skull above the specific cerebral cortex to obtain a brain wave with respect to the reference electrode. Furthermore, the activity of the local cerebral cortex is known. As for the bipolar combination paradigm, the brain wave is obtained through the potential difference of the brain electrical activity at two locations. Therefore, it is usually determined according to the demand that the combination paradigm to be adopted. In addition, regardless of the combination paradigm, a ground electrode (Ground) is often provided to eliminate background noise, for example, electromagnetic interference, but some circuit designs can eliminate the need to provide a ground electrode, which can be selected according to actual needs, so in the present invention In the description, the position of the electrodes is mainly based on two electrodes for obtaining brain waves.

Therefore, when the electrode is carried by the spectacles structure, for example, when the two electrodes respectively contact the sides of the head, or when the two electrodes respectively contact the bridge of the nose and the side of the head, it can be regarded as a bipolar combination paradigm.

In addition to the generally conceivable position of the electrode on the skull, the applicant has found that other contact positions are also suitable for obtaining electrophysiological signals, especially EEG signals.

Please refer to Figure 5A, which is a schematic diagram of the position of the cerebral cortex in the skull and the position of the auricle. It can be seen from the figure that the cerebral cortex falls in the upper part of the skull, and the auricle (also known as pinna) It is located on both sides of the skull and protrudes beyond the skull. In general, it is separated by the ear canal, which is roughly inside the upper auricle. The applicant found through the experiment that a good brain wave signal can be measured in the upper part of the auricle part, and the lower the EEG signal is, the lower the physiological structure of the head is, because the upper auricle is observed. The corresponding internal head of the skull is the position of the cerebral cortex, so in this case, through the transmission of the skull and ear cartilage, The brain wave can be measured on the upper part of the auricle, and the lower auricle is farther away from the cerebral cortex, and the interval between the ear canal, so the intensity of the EEG signal becomes weaker. For example, the tragus, the antitragus, the intertragic notch, etc., because of the physiological structure, also belong to the auricle part protruding beyond the skull, and there is no position below the position. The cerebral cortex is a suitable location for setting the reference electrode.

When the glasses are worn, except for the nose pads, which will contact the bridge of the nose, the roots, and/or the eyes, the front of the temples will contact the vicinity of the temples, and the rear of the temples will contact the V-shaped depressions between the auricle and the skull. And the portion of the temple that falls behind the auricle contacts the skin behind the auricle, the mastoid bone, etc., wherein the V-shaped depression and the rear of the auricle coincide with the position on the ear where the EEG signal can be obtained, and therefore, In view of the general idea that the EEG electrode needs to be placed in the position of the skull with the cerebral cortex, the Applicant has found that even if the electrode is placed on the auricle, the EEG signal can be obtained, and therefore it is more suitable to set the electrode by the eyeglass structure. In particular, the general V-shaped recess is the position where the temples are erected, and the back of the auricle can be contacted by increasing the curvature of the ends of the temples, which is quite advantageous in implementation.

As shown in Fig. 5B, the V-shaped depression is located between the auricle and the skull, and includes a skull portion 501, an auricle portion 502, and a connecting portion 503 as a connection, thus constituting a shape suitable for placing an object on the auricle and the skull. Between the physiological structure, in this case, the auricle and the skull will naturally provide the force to sandwich the object in the middle, even when the object is of sufficient volume and / or shape, the object can be embedded / embedded in the ear Achieve a better fixation between the profile and the skull. However, it should be noted here that since the boundary between the auricle and the skull is a continuous curve, there is no specific limitation of the V-shaped depression, and the structure can be configured as long as the temple is placed on the auricle. The range of contact is in the scope of the V-shaped depression referred to in this case, for example, when the bending end of the temple is exactly In time, the range of the V-shaped recess is large, or the end of the temple is not curved. In this case, the range of the V-shaped recess is small, so there is no limitation.

When the temple is placed in this area, any part of the three portions 501-503 can be selectively contacted. However, since the object is subject to gravity, generally, the lower connecting portion 503 is the most accessible position. Furthermore, depending on the habit of wearing glasses for each user, contact with the skull portion 501 and/or the auricle portion 502 may be increased, and in any case, as long as the glasses are suitable for oneself, the achievement is achieved. The contact can be quite stable, so that physiological signals can be easily obtained.

However, in particular, as long as the electrode placement position is designed, the electroencephalogram signal can also be obtained by using the reference combination paradigm, for example, an electrode is placed on the bridge of the nose or on one side of the temple to contact the position of the skull portion 501, and then one The electrode is disposed on the other side of the temple to contact the auricle portion 502 as a reference electrode. At this time, the auricle portion will be relatively low in cerebral cortex activity due to the nasal bridge or the skull portion having the cerebral cortex below. Position, so you can use the reference combination paradigm to obtain EEG signals and / or EO signals; or you can also set both electrodes on the same side of the temples, using an electrode to contact the lower back of the auricle away from the cerebral cortex As the reference electrode, the other electrode only needs to contact the position of the cerebral cortex, such as the V-shaped depression or the side of the head, which is close to the back of the auricle. The reference combination paradigm can also be used to obtain the EEG signal.

Therefore, when the electroencephalographic electrode is carried by the spectacles structure according to the present invention, the obtained EEG signals are not limited to which combination paradigm is obtained, and both combinations are feasible.

Further, in order to allow the electrode disposed on the surface of the temple to have good contact at the V-shaped recessed position, it can also be achieved by designing the structure of the temple and matching the position of the electrode. For example, as shown in FIG. 6A, when the cross-sectional structure of the temple is implemented as a square-like structure, the electrode 20 may be disposed on the lower surface of the square to naturally contact the connecting portion of the V-shaped recess due to gravity. Or, as shown in FIG. 6B, the temple can also be formed in a D-like structure. Thus, by arranging the electrode 20 on the curved surface of the D-shaped structure, the connection for contacting the V-shaped recess is provided. The portion 503 and the skull portion 501 are possible; or, as described above, when it is desired as a reference electrode, the electrode may be placed at a position contacting the skull portion 501; alternatively, the D-shaped structure may be implemented as a curved surface facing down to Increasing the contact probability of the electrode with the three parts, therefore, there are various options, which can be changed according to actual needs.

Similarly, the photo sensor is also suitable for being disposed at the V-shaped recessed position described above. In general, the position of the photo sensor can be any position where the lens structure is in contact with the head, for example, the contact on the nose pad with the area between the eyes, the bridge of the nose, the root of the mountain, or the side of the temple and the side of the head. The ear and/or the area near the ear are in contact, and among them, the particularly advantageous contact position is the V-shaped depression between the ear and the skull, and based on the influence of gravity, the setting of the connecting portion 503 is most stable, however, Since the physiological signal obtained by the photo sensor has a small restriction on the sampling position, it is usually only necessary to detect the position of the blood flow change, so whether the connection portion 503, the skull portion 501, or the auricle Portion 502 is the location where the photosensor can be set, without limitation.

On the other hand, since the glasses are implemented in a wearable form, how to maintain effective contact between the electrodes disposed on the surface and the skin in the case of easy wear is the key to the success of the wearing form. In this regard, the present invention further adds a contact securing structure to the electrode to overcome the contact problems that may occur when the glasses are worn, for example, hair shading, bending of the contact surface, possible displacement due to body movement, and the like, and The location of contact due to individual differences is different.

In addition, another problem that may be encountered is that since each person has a different distance from the front of the head to the ear, how can the eyeglass structure be worn on the temples even if worn on different user heads? Contacting the target's contact position, for example, near the top of the ear, the hair-free position between the ear and the skull, is also a problem to be considered.

The contact securing structure can have various implementation possibilities. For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, one electrode can be formed as a plurality of dispersed contact points 21, for example, in parallel with each other, so that no matter which contact point Being contacted can be regarded as the contact between the electrode and the skin has been completed, which is quite convenient, and this is especially suitable for setting on a curved contact surface, or may cause slight movement, or to overcome different users. The difference in distance between the head and the ear is further advantageous in that each of the discrete contact points can be implemented to be scalable, for example, as shown in FIG. 7B, in the form of a spring thimble to further ensure contact is achieved. For example, it can be implemented that the contact between the skin and the electrode is achieved by compressing the spring ejector pin, so that even if a small distance displacement between the skin and the electrode occurs, the elastic force of the spring thimble can be overcome.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 7C-7D, it may also be implemented in the form of a plurality of protrusions on the same electrode member 23, for example, the electrode sheet may be directly formed to have a plurality of protrusions (FIG. 7C), or It can be implemented as a plurality of retractable protrusions (Fig. 7D) and the like in the electrode sheet, and can be in various forms, which also contributes to an increase in skin-to-electrode contact.

Furthermore, the electrode may also be implemented in a suspended form. For example, as shown in FIG. 7E, a telescopic structure, such as a spring ejector, is disposed under the electrode, so that the electrode may have a vertical direction in response to a change in the contact surface. In addition to telescoping, the change of the angle can also be made by using the lower spring thimble as a fulcrum, which is quite helpful for adapting the shape of the contact position; and further, the surface of the electrode in suspension form can also be formed with protrusions, for example, combined Implementing Figures 7C-7D and Figure 7E, and the achievement of contact is easier.

Here, it should be noted that the above-mentioned contact ensuring structure can be implemented at any position of the spectacles structure, for example, it can be contact with the bridge of the nose, contact behind the ear, above the ear, behind the head, etc., all of which are feasible and not limited.

In addition to the above, there is a simpler embodiment for contacting the interface between the ear and the skull, as shown in Fig. 7F. In the preferred embodiment, the electrode 20 on the temple is formed as Large-scale distribution of long electrodes, in this way, can cover the size differences that may occur between different users, even a single size of glasses, can be adapted to different users, which for production, It is a very advantageous option.

As for the distribution range of the elongated electrode, there is no limitation, and it may be changed according to actual needs. Among them, it is preferably formed to a length greater than 2 cm, for example, a length greater than a length is set on the temple. 2 cm of stainless steel is used as the electrode; in addition, this wide range of distribution can also be achieved by the above-mentioned contact securing structure, for example, expanding the distribution range of a plurality of protrusions, telescopic structures, or providing protrusions on the entire electrode, or It is a plurality of suspension support points of the entire electrode to further increase the stability of the contact.

In another preferred embodiment, the electrodes are implemented in a form movable on the temples such that when worn on different user's heads, the position of the electrodes can be made in response to differences in the size of each person. Adjustments to accurately reach the location to be contacted are also an advantageous choice.

In implementation, as shown in Figures 7G-7J, the ear contact portion on the temple temple for providing the electrode is implemented with an adjustment mechanism 22 such that the electrode can change position on the temple. In this way, the position where the physiological signal is to be obtained can be accurately pointed, for example, the hairless position at the junction of the ear and the skull, and the ear contact portion. The sub-section can be further implemented to conform to the curve of the back of the auricle, with a more stable arrangement, and also assists the physiological sensing element disposed thereon for signal extraction.

Wherein, FIG. 7G shows that the ear contact portion is directly implemented as a part of the temple, and FIG. 7H shows that the ear contact portion is implemented in a form combined with the temple, and further has a curve conforming to the back of the auricle, as for the adjustment. The mechanism has a number of implementation options, for example, can be implemented as a sliding mechanism, for example, a track is provided, as shown in Figure 7G, to move the electrode in the track, and the movement within the track can be implemented as a segmentation. Or no segment movement, no limitation; can also be implemented as a clamping / erecting mechanism, as shown in Figure 7I, or a nesting mechanism to achieve the effect of moving along the temple; can also be implemented as a magnetic mechanism, for example The temples and the electrodes/bonding modules are configured to be magnetically attracted to each other, and as long as they are in the range of the magnetic force, the positions where the electrodes can be set can also achieve the effect of moving along the temples. In addition, for the production, a simpler embodiment is that, as shown in FIG. 7J, a plurality of bonding positions can be disposed on the surface of the temple facing the head, for example, can be implemented as a card slot, and the placement is implemented as Electrodes with corresponding structures are fixed by mechanical clamping, so that when used, the user can select which one to be combined according to his own head size or different detection position requirements. It is also quite convenient to combine the positions, or alternatively, it can be implemented as a plurality of magnetically fixed positions, which is also quite advantageous. Therefore, there are various possibilities, and there are no certain restrictions.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned setting manners are also suitable for setting other physiological sensing components that also have the required position. For example, the light sensor also needs to be disposed at the hairless portion, so there is no implementation limitation.

Further, the electrodes and the photo sensor are disposed directly on the surface of the frame unit and/or the temple, and can also be disposed through an external connection, for example, directly through The combination of the temples or the connection through the connecting wire, etc., and no matter how it is set, the key point is that it must be connected to the conductive part of the frame unit and/or the temple to connect to the metal hinge structure. And/or circuitry to perform physiological signal acquisition.

On the other hand, the circuit system is disposed in the temple of the lens as shown in FIG. 1 , and may be configured to be disposed through a combined module combined with the temples. For example, all the circuits are disposed on the bonding die. In the group, or only part of the circuit is disposed in the combined module, it is a feasible manner, and there is no limitation. In the following embodiments, for the convenience of description, all the circuit systems are included in the combined module. The components are described and illustrated by way of example only, and are not intended to be limiting.

Firstly, when implemented in the form of a combined module, it means that the combined module can be attached to or removed from the temple according to requirements, and the user can decide whether to connect the combined module according to his own needs. It also provides the possibility of reducing the wearing burden when physiological signal acquisition is not required.

Moreover, when the bonding module is combined with the temple, regardless of the manner of bonding, the most important thing is to achieve a connection with the conductive portion of the temple, that is, the conductive portion of the temple needs to be exposed. The position, and the bonding module, need to be provided with corresponding electrical contact positions to achieve electrical connection while being combined, so as to be connected to the electrode and, if necessary, to the metal hinge structure and achieve electrophysiology The sampling loop of the signal.

Under this premise, the combination of the combined module and the temple can have many options. For example, as shown in FIG. 8A, the bonding module 40 can be connected by using a connection port to achieve the connection by using the hardware structure of the connection port itself, on the one hand, the electrical connection, and on the other hand, the fixing force; or, Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 8B, the bonding module 40 can be implemented in the form of a sleeve end, and such a design increases the volume of the end of the temple, but just allows the module to be Hidden, for example, can be hidden behind the ear or covered by the hair, so it still has considerable advantages; in addition, other combinations can be used, for example, as shown in FIG. 8C, the combined module can be implemented as The long shape is embedded in the temple, or the way of wearing, etc., therefore, the shape and combination of the combined modules can be determined according to the shape of the different temples. Moreover, the number of the combined modules is not limited, and may be implemented as multiple according to requirements. For example, two combined modules are disposed on one side of the temples at the same time, or one combined module is disposed on each of the two sides of the temples, or It is a possible choice to set up a combined module at the inter-eye area of the frame unit.

Furthermore, the bonding module can also be implemented to be connected to the temple via a connecting wire. For example, an electrical connection 42 can be formed at the end of the temple for connecting the module, and in this case, There may be more variations in the implementation of the modular module. For example, the combined module may be implemented in the form of an ear-worn structure, for example, in the form of an in-ear housing (Fig. 8D), or in the form of an ear clip. Etc., in order to provide a stable setting, and since the ear is also a position at which the EEG signal can be obtained, it is also possible to provide an electrode on the ear-wearing structure, for example, the inner casing of the ear can contact the inner surface of the auricle, Positioning the ear canal, or setting the reference electrode at the position where the ear clip contacts the earlobe, to obtain the brain signal and/or the EO signal together with the electrode of the eyeglass structure; or, as mentioned above, the upper half above the ear canal The position of the auricle, for example, the wall of the ear (in the inner surface of the auricle, around the superior concha and the inferior concha, from the concha floor (ie, parallel to the skull) Plane) connected up to the pair of ears (antihelix) and to the ear (antitragus) a façade area, called the concha wall, which can be used as the position of the motion detecting electrode and the lower auricle position below the ear canal, for example, tragus, tragus , the tragus between the tragus, etc., can be used as the location of the reference electrode. Furthermore, the use of the ear-wearing form also increases the possibility of providing information through the sound, for example, by setting the sounding element in the ear-wearing structure, or directly implementing In the form of a headset, the user is informed of the current physiological condition by sound.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 8E, the bonding module can be disposed behind the head through a combination of the temples on both sides, for example, one side is electrically connected to the electrical connection port 42, and the other side is simply mechanically coupled. Fixed, or both sides are implemented as electrical connections; in addition, the electrical connection can be achieved in addition to the electrical connection, or in the form of electrical contact, for example, electrical contact can be completed at the same time as the socket, or magnetic electricity can be used. The way of contact, etc., therefore, there are various possibilities.

Here, it should be noted that FIGS. 8A-8E only show the implementation possibilities of the bonding module, so the electrodes and the circuit system are not drawn, so it can be applied to any kind of eyeglass structure and electrode/circuit configuration.

On the other hand, the bonding module can be used to set the electrodes in addition to the circuit system. For example, the electrodes can be disposed on the surface of the bonding module to be combined with the mirror legs. An electrode is provided on the lens structure. As shown in FIG. 8 , the inner surface of the bonding module 40 has an electrode 50. Therefore, when the bonding module 40 is connected to the metal portion of the temple 14 , the electrode 50 is It is quite convenient to obtain the EEG and/or EEG signals together with the electrode 30; alternatively, the bonding module can also have electrodes (not shown) on the outside for contacting an upper limb and thus the electrode 30. The ECG signal is obtained together; in addition, the photo sensor can be provided through the bonding module, for example, on the surface contacting the V-shaped recess, so that the blood physiological signal can be obtained from the head or set. On the outside, it is also a convenient choice to obtain blood physiological signals from the upper limbs that are in contact. Here, similarly, when the electrodes are disposed on the surface of the bonding module, a contact securing structure may also be employed to make the contact more reliable.

Furthermore, in addition to the above, there are other implementation options for the electrodes on the bonding module. For example, if the glasses are already available, they can obtain EEG signals, EEG signals, and/or At least two electrodes of the skin electrical signal, for example, two electrodes are placed on the two mirror legs, two electrodes are located on the same temple, or one electrode is located on the temple and one electrode is located in the frame unit, and the combination can be implemented by transmitting the combination Module, and change the position and combination paradigm of electrophysiological signals. Here, the setting position of the combined module may be on the temple foot or on the frame unit, and there is no limitation.

In one case, the electrodes on the bonding module are implemented to replace one of the original electrodes on the glasses. For example, the circuit switching may be performed by detecting the connection of the bonding module, or when the module is inserted by using the bonding module. The mechanical structure of the device (for example, the Phone Jack that can switch the conduction path) is used to complete the circuit switching, and by the alternative, the sampling position of the electrode can be changed on the one hand, and the combined mode of sampling can be changed on the other hand.

For example, in the case of changing the position of the electrode, in the case where the electrode is placed in the two-legged foot, the electrode on the combined module can change the electrode originally placed on the temple foot and contact the scalp of the cerebral cortex area to be changed to a posterior extension of the electrode that contacts the scalp of the occipital region of the cerebral cortex, or an electrode that extends upwardly into contact with the scalp of the parietal lobes, or that the two electrodes are located on the same side of the head, or changed to the side of the contact head and Contacting the area between the two eyes; on the other hand, in the case where the two electrodes are all located in the same temple, the electrodes on the combined module can change one of the electrodes to be located on the other temple or change the same side of the head. The contact position, for example, changes from contact with the temple and V-shaped depression to contact with the V-shaped depression and the mastoid bone, or changes to contact the side of the head and contact the area between the two eyes; on the other hand, an electrode is located on the frame and In the example where an electrode is located on the temple, the electrode on the module can be used to replace the electrode contacting the two-eye area, so that the two electrodes are respectively contacted on both sides of the head, or two electrodes. Contact with the side of the head.

In the case of changing the sampling combination paradigm, the bipolar combination paradigm can be changed to the reference combination paradigm, or vice versa, for example, by contacting the mastoid bone through the electrodes on the bonding module, or It is implemented as an ear-wearing form to contact the inner surface/ear canal of the auricle, and the original bipolar combination paradigm can be changed to a reference combination paradigm. Conversely, by placing the bonding module at a position corresponding to the head of the cerebral cortex, For example, the side close to the V-shaped depression, the position of the temple, or the position of the front of the frame unit contacting the two-eye area, etc., can be used to replace the reference electrode in the original reference combination paradigm, and then use the bipolar combination paradigm to obtain brain telecommunications. number.

In another case, by adding the module to increase the sampled electrode, in addition to the combination of the sampling mode, the single channel sampling loop can be added to the dual channel sampling loop by adding the electrodes on the bonding module. For example, in an embodiment, if the electrodes are disposed on the two mirror legs or the electrodes disposed on the temples and the frame, the bipolar combination paradigm is used to obtain the EEG signal, and after combining the modules, The electrode on the electrode can be used as a reference electrode, for example, as an ear clip contacting the earlobe, and the inner ear shell is connected to the inner surface of the auricle/ear canal, or connected to the end of the temple to contact the mastoid bone, etc., for reference. Combining the paradigm to obtain the EEG signal, for example, the original two electrodes and the electrode on the combined module respectively use the reference combination paradigm to obtain the EEG signal, or one of the electrodes can obtain the bipolar except the original sampling loop. In addition to the group paradigm signal, another sampling circuit is formed with the electrodes on the combined module, and the reference combined paradigm EEG signal is obtained, and in any case, the original single-channel EEG signal is changed to a double Channel EEG signals are captured.

Alternatively, the original two electrodes can obtain the EEG signal by using the reference combination paradigm. After the module is combined, the electrode on the electrode and the original reference electrode form another sampling loop to utilize the reference. The combined paradigm acquires the EEG signal, or the electrode on it and the original motion detecting electrode form another sampling loop to obtain the EEG signal by using the bipolar combination paradigm, and similarly, in any case, Is changed by the original single-channel EEG signal Capture for dual channel EEG signals.

In another case, the electrodes on the combined module are used to increase the type of the captured signal, for example, to obtain an EO, ECG, cutaneous, and/or muscle in addition to the original EEG signal. Telecommunications, etc.

Therefore, through the combination of modules, in addition to simplification of the production of glasses for accommodating the circuit system, it can also be used to change the electrode setting, the sampling combination paradigm, the type of physiological signals captured, etc., thereby increasing the flexibility of use. It is a very advantageous choice.

In addition, in a special embodiment, when the nose pad of the eyeglass structure is implemented in a replaceable form (whether or not the combination module is combined with the eyeglass structure), the original non-conductive nose pad can also be replaced with a conductive nose pad. Or, instead, change the sampling position, sampling combination paradigm, sampling signal type, etc., which also replaces one of the original electrodes, or performs signal extraction together with the original electrode to Changes between the reference combination paradigm and the bipolar combination paradigm, as well as the single channel sampling loop and the dual channel sampling loop. However, it should be noted here that the position of the nose pad must have been electrically connected to the circuit system, whether through a metal component disposed in the frame unit or by means of a wire.

Further, the circuit system may include other functions in addition to the function of performing physiological signal acquisition. For example, the circuitry may include an information providing unit to provide physiological information, operational information, and/or other information to the user, and since the glasses are worn on the head, not only close to the eyes, ears, but also The skin is attached. Therefore, the information can be provided through various means such as sight, hearing, touch, etc., for example, the light-emitting element 44, for example, an LED, or the like can be disposed at a position where the eyeglass structure is close to the eye as shown in FIG. 10A. Extending the light guide column to the lens to produce a color change, or using a spectacle lens as a display screen, for example, using a projection Or, as shown in FIG. 10B, the display element 46 is extended from the eyeglass structure, for example, an LCD, which is disposed in front of the user's eyes, or as shown in FIG. 10C, a display unit 48 is additionally provided on the eyeglass structure, and is disposed in use. In front of the eyes, therefore, it can be in any form, without limitation; in addition, sound can be generated in the vicinity of the ear. For example, a sounding element can be disposed on the temples near the ear, wherein the sounding element used can be generally common. In addition to the air conduction form, bone conduction can also be used. For example, a bone conduction speaker can be directly placed at a position where the temple is in contact with the skull, or the earphone can be extended from the eyeglass structure, and this is particularly suitable for combination as described above. The module is implemented as an ear-worn structure; in addition, physiological information can be provided by generating vibrations at a position in contact with the skin, for example, by providing a vibration module, and thus, various possibilities are possible.

Furthermore, the circuit system can also include an operation interface disposed on the lens structure or extending from the lens structure for the user to control, for example, a button or a touch on the temple foot. There are no restrictions on the control interface, etc., or the buttons on the ear-wearing structure, the touch interface, and the like.

In addition, the circuit system can also include a communication module for transmitting physiological information to an external device through a wired or wireless manner. For example, the wired transmission mode can be connected through a USB connection, and the wireless transmission mode can be transmitted through the Bluetooth, without limitation. The physiological information is provided to the user by an external device, for example, displaying data, waveforms, etc. through a screen, or flashing lights, vibrating, emitting sounds, etc., wherein the transmitted physiological information may be physiological signals acquired. It can also be the result obtained by the processor analysis, which can be different according to the requirements. Accordingly, the circuit system can still have a memory to record the physiological information, and then transmit after the detection is completed, or There is no limit to the method of instant wireless transmission or the storage of the memory as a buffer before instant transmission.

Here, the external device can be any transmission capability and can execute a corresponding application. Program devices such as, but not limited to, smart phones, smart watches, smart glasses, tablets, notebooks, and personal computers.

On the other hand, it can also be implemented to control the operation of the circuit system by an application executed on the external device. For example, the user can always attach the bonding module to the glasses or replace the upper temple, but do not perform the first step. Physiological signal acquisition, when needed, can be activated by the application on the mobile phone and instantly monitor the physiological condition through the mobile phone; furthermore, as described above, since it is possible to obtain multiple physiological signals at the same time, it is also possible to externally It is quite convenient to select the type of physiological signal to be acquired and/or the type of physiological signal to be analyzed, and the optical structure can also transmit instructions to the external device through the above-mentioned operation interface. , are all possible implementations.

Further, in the case of communication with the external device, the sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction) on the eyeglass structure can also be used to play music from the external device, of course, the structure of the glasses The memory can also be used to store music, for example, mp3, to play directly. In addition, if a radio component is provided at the same time, the glasses structure can be used as a hands-free handset of the external device for conversation, which is quite convenient, and further The display element/display unit is provided for playing a movie (stored in a memory or from an external device), which is an implementable manner.

In particular, the information providing unit can be disposed on the single-sided temple, and the physiological information obtained by the physiological sensing component disposed on the glasses can be used to communicate the physiological information to the user, for example, as described above. Hearing, visual, tactile, etc. There are many different options for how physiological information is transmitted to the information providing unit. For example, it can be transmitted wirelessly. For example, the temple can be implemented as a physiological signal capturing unit on one side. And the other side of the temple Providing information for the unit, wireless communication between the two, or wireless communication between the two via external devices; or through an electrical connection inside the glasses or through an external wired connection, for example, through It is a feasible way to set a removable electrical connection between the two temples.

In a special embodiment, the physiological signal capturing unit and the information providing unit are implemented as processor modules, communication modules, batteries, etc., and can be independently operated and respectively disposed through different mirror legs. The head, then, through the communication between the two, as described above, wired or wireless communication, the physiological signal acquisition unit can use the information providing unit to provide physiological information to the user, wherein the physiological signal The capturing unit can be embedded in the temples in whole or in part, or combined with the temples by using a combination module, and the information providing unit can be fully or partially embedded in the temples, mounted on the temples, or Implementing an ear-wearing structure that is attached to the temples is a viable manner and is not limited.

The physiological sensing component of the physiological signal capturing unit may be in various forms, such as an electrode, and/or a photo sensor, to obtain electrophysiological signals and/or blood physiological information, and the physiological sensing component is It is not limited to the temples that are only disposed on one side, and can also be combined with physiological sensing elements disposed on the frame or on the other side of the temple to obtain a physiological signal. For example, it can be implemented as two electrodes. On the temple where the physiological signal acquisition unit is located, or only one electrode, and the other electrode is disposed on the frame or the other side of the temple.

In this way, the independent operation of the user provides users with higher ease of use. For example, the physiological detection function and/or the information providing method can be changed by changing the temples. Purpose, for example, the temples originally used to detect brain signals can be replaced with measuring ECG signals. The temples that provide visual information can be replaced with audio information, or other functions can be added to the original functions. Have become quite simple, and, Even in the case where the electrode is provided on the temple where the physiological signal capturing unit is located, the electrode can be removed by changing the temple, or the electrode can be used without being restricted.

Furthermore, in particular, the eyeglass structure according to the inventive concept is also suitable for implementation as Virtual Reality Glasses (VR Glasses) or Augmented Reality Glasses (AR Glasses). The information can be directly provided to the user through the original information providing interface of the VR and AR glasses. On the other hand, the physiological signal capturing unit disposed on the glasses can also help the VR and the AR glasses. The executed program determines the user's use situation and complements each other, which is quite advantageous.

Next, in the concept of another aspect of the present invention, another possible embodiment for obtaining a physiological signal without changing the appearance of the frame unit is provided. Referring to FIG. 11A, there is shown a schematic view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the inside of the temple has two electrodes at the same time, one is located near the side of the eye, the electrode 62 of the temple, and the other is Electrode 64 near the top of the ear.

Here, such an electrode distribution position has its special significance. Because of the electrodes disposed on the side of the eye and near the temple, in addition to the EEG signal, the action of the eye can be detected, and therefore, the vicinity of the ear is matched. After the electrode, the EEG signal and the EEG signal can be obtained simultaneously through only the two electrodes on the same side, and since the electrode is only located on the single-sided mirror foot, it is only necessary to replace the single temple foot. Glasses have great features and are quite advantageous.

However, due to the difference in the shape of each person's face, it is possible that the contact between the electrode on the side of the eye and the temple and the skin does not necessarily appear to be intimate. Therefore, it can be further implemented as shown in FIG. 9B below the eye electrode. A protrusion 66 is provided to ensure contact between the electrode and the skin, and in practice, in addition to the protrusions of different heights according to different face shapes, the protrusions may be Having flexibility to accommodate different face shapes; or, as shown in Figure 9C, also on an extension member 68 extending upwardly from the temple to the forehead, for example, contacting the hairline edge to otherwise be located near the eye The electrode extends as the electrode 62', so that in addition to the eye movement signal, the activity of the cerebral cortex frontal area can be obtained, or as shown in FIG. 9D, it can also extend backward through the extension member 69. Behind the head, the electrode originally located near the ear is extended as the electrode 64' to obtain the activity of the occipital region of the cerebral cortex. Here, the extension member can be directly formed on the temple, and can also pass through other By way of example, a connection port can be provided on the temple to connect the extension member, or the extension member can also be implemented to be in contact with the electrode, for example, magnetically coupled to the electrode Not only does the electrical connection form a mechanical bond, but the electrode is thus extended to other locations. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no restrictions.

In addition, in particular, as shown in FIG. 11E, the brain activity of the occipital region can also be obtained by extending the position of the temple to the rear of the head through the joint module, or the temple can be directly formed to have a rearward extension. The curved portion, and when there is hair at the contact position of the electrode, for example, the hair is behind the head, and the side of the head has a corner, the contact securing structure can be used to obtain the signal through the hair, for example, as described above. Since the telescopic electrode is dispersed and/or dispersed into a plurality of contact points and the like, there is no limitation, and only stable contact between the electrode and the skin can be achieved.

On the other hand, in addition to obtaining EEG signals and/or EEG signals, the distance between the two electrodes can be shortened to obtain myoelectric signals or skin electrical signals, or alternatively, one electrode is located inside and the other electrode is implemented. The ECG signal can be measured by the outside for the user to contact the electrode through the upper limb, or a photo sensor can be provided to obtain the blood physiological signal. Therefore, there are various possibilities, and are not limited to being implemented separately, but may be combined and implemented on the same temple.

Here, similarly, the circuit system for performing electrophysiological signal acquisition can be implemented as It is directly disposed in the temple (as shown in FIG. 11A ), and can also be implemented in the bonding module 40 electrically connected to the temple through the terminal electrical connection 42 (as shown in FIG. 11B ) (may also be implemented) In the case of the earwear, or in the combination module 40 combined with the end of the temple (as shown in FIG. 11E), the combination module can also be implemented in various different forms as previously described, without limitation.

Further, it is also possible to implement replacement of both temples, and in this case, electrical connection between the two temples is required by using wiring, for example, as shown in FIG. 12A, it may be a circuit. The system 100 has been disposed in the temple 702, and the two mirror legs 702 and 704 have been respectively provided with electrodes 72 and electrodes 74 on the surface. Therefore, when there is a need for measurement, the user only needs to connect the connection wires 70 to the two. The electrical connection 埠 42 on the temples can be used; or, as shown in FIGS. 12B-12C, the main circuit system is disposed in the bonding module 40, and when connected to the mirror 702 The module 40 and the other side of the mirror leg 704 are connected to the connecting line 70, or the connecting module 40 is respectively connected to the two mirror legs through the connecting line, and the sampling circuit can be completed, which is also very convenient, and, because the connecting line will It is located at the back of the head, so it does not affect the frontal look.

Alternatively, the connection between the electrodes and the circuitry can be accomplished using electrically conductive portions of the spectacles structure as previously described. For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 12D, the electrode 72 is disposed on the temple on one side of the eyeglass structure, and the circuit system is mainly disposed in the earwear structure and connected to the other through the port 42 The other side of the temple is disposed on the side of the temple, and the other electrode 50 is disposed in the form of an ear, such as an in-ear housing, to engage the surface of the module to contact the ear when the inner housing is placed on the ear. The skin, through such an arrangement, is that as long as the electrode 72 is electrically connected to the port 42 through the electrically conductive portion of the lens structure, the user only needs to insert the upper ear wearing structure and complete the ear wearing structure when the user wants to perform the measurement. The settings are OK and quite convenient. Here, it should be noted that although the combined module is implemented in the form of earwear for the convenience of use, As a limitation, it may be implemented in the form of FIG. 12B, and the electrodes thereon may be selected to contact the V-shaped depression, the auricle back, the mastoid bone, or/or the head region near the ear, etc., all of which are feasible.

In addition, it can also be implemented as shown in FIG. 12E. In this embodiment, the bonding module is also implemented in an external form, and has a circuit system disposed therein, and the two electrodes 72, 74 are all disposed on The spectacles are connected to the connecting cymbals through the conductive parts in the spectacles structure. Therefore, when the user wants to perform the measurement, only the upper ear wearing structure is needed, or the bonding mode as shown in FIG. 12B. Groups are also very advantageous implementations.

In addition, it should be noted that although FIG. 12A-12E shows a case where only one electrode is provided on one side of the temple, it is also possible to implement, without limitation, that both sides have two electrodes or a single temple. There are no restrictions on setting two electrodes. In addition, in addition to the conventional form of glasses as shown in the figure, the eyeglass structure may also adopt an eyeglass structure having no hinge structure as shown in FIG. 10B, which may be changed according to actual needs.

Next, in accordance with a further aspect of the present invention, a control mechanism is further provided while imparting electrophysiological signal acquisition capabilities to the glasses. Referring to FIG. 13A, there is shown a schematic view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown, at the junction of the frame unit and the temple, the corresponding electrical contact points 82 are provided on the frame unit 806 and the temple 802, respectively. 84, so, with such a design, when the temple 802 is deployed, the electrical contacts 82, 84 of the temple 802 and the frame unit 806 will just contact each other due to the abutment of the temple and the frame unit, and When the temples are attached, the electrical contacts are disconnected.

In the concept of the invention, such electrical contact settings are used to determine the state of the circuitry. Since the glasses are not used when the glasses are not used, the user usually puts the temples on them to carry them. Therefore, under such a premise, if the structure changes due to this action, By setting a switch that determines the state of the circuit system, the storage action when the glasses are not in use can be naturally coupled to the state of the circuit system, for example, whether the circuit system is connected to the electrode, or whether the circuit system can perform physiological signal acquisition. Wait.

When the state of the sampling circuit system is determined by the opening and closing of the glasses, it is advantageous that, first of all, the effect of power saving can be achieved, and since the glasses are worn on the face, it is naturally preferable to reduce as much as possible. The weight and the volume are reduced to increase the user's willingness to use, and the battery accounts for almost the maximum weight and volume of the wearable physiological detecting device. Therefore, if the mechanism can be used to ensure that the glasses are not used, the power will not be mistaken. It is definitely a very advantageous design to be consumed by touching the situation. In addition, the effect of reducing the amount of data can be achieved. Since the wearable physiological detecting device mostly performs long-time measurement, the accumulated amount of data is quite large, so In this way, the amount of data can be effectively reduced, and the resource consumption of either manual interpretation or cloud computing can be reduced.

There are several possible ways in which it can be implemented. For example, the corresponding electrical contact point may be a switch that is placed in the circuit unit and/or the electrode on the mirror frame unit and the mirror foot, is opened when the temple is mounted on the temple, and is closed when the temple is deployed. Therefore, the presence or absence of electrical connection between the circuit system and the electrode can be determined by the action of opening and closing the temple. Here, it should be noted that the number of contact points is not limited, mainly according to requirements. For example, one, two, or a plurality of sets of contact points may be set to achieve one, two, or a plurality of electrical conduction loops, as shown in FIG. 13B, that is, the frame unit 806 and the opposite side of the temple 802 The case of a group of electrical contacts.

In addition, it can also be implemented in the case where all electrodes, circuit components, and the like are located in a single temple. At this time, the electrical contact acts as a circuit system that turns on the temple, for example, As shown in Fig. 13C, a single contact point 82 can be provided on the frame unit 806 to simultaneously contact the two contact points 841 and 842 on the temple when the temple is deployed. At this time, the circuit system can detect this. The electrical connection changes to a state in which physiological signal acquisition can be performed, that is, the electrical connection is used as an indication of whether physiological signal acquisition can be performed. Therefore, the actual configuration of the electrical contacts can be varied depending on the requirements, without limitation.

In addition, according to another aspect of the present invention, the eyeglass structure in which the conductive portions on the frame unit and the temples are electrically connected to each other, that is, the eyeglass structure itself can achieve the signal transmission function.

There may be various possibilities for such an eyeglass structure. For example, the temples and the frame unit shown in FIG. 14A may be made of a metal material and joined to each other by a metal hinge structure, or as shown in FIG. 14C. The eyeglass structure without the hinge structure can be implemented by a metal material; or in the eyeglass structure made of a rubber material, a conductive portion is provided in the frame unit and the temple, for example, a built-in circuit board The carrying circuit is connected to each other through a metal hinge structure; in addition, it may be a metal material coated with a plastic material or an acetate material, and there is no limitation.

Among them, among the glasses structures that meet such requirements, the most common ones are so-called metal frame glasses, that is, as shown in FIG. 14A, and therefore, in the following description, mainly based on the type of glasses. The description is made, but as is well known to those skilled in the art, it is not intended to be limiting, and the same embodiments can be applied to other eyeglass structures having the same characteristics.

The metal frame glasses structure will also include a frame unit and two temples. Generally speaking, in the common metal frame glasses structure, the frame and the temples are mostly made of metal, but as is well known, the nose pads are The material may vary, for example, with a rubber pad or the same metal. In addition, some metal glasses will have different materials at the end of the temple. In addition, as the metal frame glasses structure shown in FIG. 14C, the frame unit and the temple are integrally formed, for example, formed of a single piece of elastic metal.

Therefore, when the metal frame spectacles structure is used, no matter where the electrodes are disposed in the metal spectacles structure, electrical signals can be transmitted without additional wiring as long as they can be electrically connected to the metal material.

For example, one possible implementation manner is that, referring to FIG. 14A, a combining module 40 is disposed on a single side mirror foot 902, and a combined electrode member 90 is disposed on the other side mirror leg 904, and the combination is The module and the bonding electrode member are respectively provided with electrodes 92 and 94 on the inner side of the contact head. Therefore, based on the characteristics of the metal frame glasses, the bonding module and the bonding electrode need only be in contact with the end of the temple respectively. The electrical connection point is set, and the installation action ensures that the electrical connection point and the temple foot are stably contacted. Thus, when the combined module and the combined electrode component are all installed, the entire sampling circuit is completed, and the user only needs to Wearing the glasses, the electrodes placed on both sides can obtain the EEG signals by respectively contacting the two sides of the head, and the electrical signals from the combined electrode components are transmitted to the two mirror pins 902, 904 and the frame to The combination module 40.

In this way, the user can purchase the bonding module and the combined electrode component, and when the measurement is needed, the bonding module and the bonding electrode component are mounted on the glasses, and the physiological signal can be detected. Convenience.

Another possible implementation is to refer to FIG. 14B, which shows the case where an electrode is disposed between the eyes, and the nose pad is used as an electrode. Here, the nose pad electrodes 96, 98 may be directly in the original eyeglass structure. The metal nose pad formed to be connected to the metal frame may be electrically connected to the metal frame by covering the conductive member, and is not limited. Therefore, the electrodes on the nose pad can be used together with the electrodes 92 on the bonding module to obtain the EO signals. EEG signals are also quite advantageous options.

Alternatively, the eyeglass structure shown in FIG. 14C may be used. In this case, the bonding module 40 is disposed on one of the temples, and the bonding electrode member 90 is disposed at the inter-eye region. The upper electrode 92 contacts the skin of the head on one side, and the electrode on the electrode member (not shown, located inside the lens) contacts the skin of the area between the eyes, for example, the mountain root, to obtain an EOG signal and an EEG signal.

In another possible implementation manner, as shown in FIG. 14D, an electrode 9041 has been formed in advance on the one-side temple 904. For example, as described above, the method of changing the temples can be utilized, and therefore, as long as the other side The upper module 40 is mounted on the temple, and the electroencephalogram signal can be obtained through the electrodes 92 and 9041.

In another possible embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14E, in the case where the temple 904 has stable contact with the side of the head and/or the skin of the ear, the temple 904 is directly implemented as an electrode, for example, a mirror. The foot contacts the position of the V-shaped recess, and then cooperates with the electrode 92 on the bonding module 40 to obtain an EEG signal.

Therefore, as long as it is determined that the conductive parts of the frame unit and the temples are electrically connected to each other, the physiological signal capturing function can be conveniently obtained through the above-mentioned manner, especially the one that has been worn with the metal frame glasses structure, the simplest The situation is that it is only necessary to install an external module to obtain the physiological signal acquisition function, which is quite beneficial to increase public acceptance.

Here, it should be noted that although the electrodes depicted in FIGS. 14A-14E are all oriented toward the head, when actually implemented, the position of the V-shaped recess may be downwardly contacted as described above, and Either the bonding module or the bonding electrode component can be implemented to have an ear contact portion as described above to carry the electrode, thereby ensuring contact between the electrode and the skin, and further, In FIG. 14E, when the temple of the eyeglass structure is directly used as an electrode, the ear contact portion may also be disposed on the temple to ensure the stability of the contact.

In addition, the present invention further provides another possibility of providing an electrode for the eyeglass structure that can achieve the signal transmission function itself, that is, the electrode is disposed by an external connection, for example, by using an external component that is connected to the temple. One of the electrodes for obtaining the physiological signal is disposed outside the eyeglass structure. For example, FIG. 14F shows a case where the external component 930 is implemented in an ear-worn form, wherein an electrode (not shown) can be disposed on the temple foot. The inner ear shell 920 is connected through a connecting wire, so that the electrode can make contact with the inner portion of the ear by the action of providing the inner ear casing, or the external component 930 can also be implemented as shown in FIG. 14G. In the case where the electrode 940 is disposed on the surface of the external member 930 that is electrically coupled to the temple, it is possible to contact a position such as the back of the ear and/or the mastoid bone.

In this case, there are several options for obtaining a physiological signal. One of the options is to use two electrodes to perform physiological signal extraction. At this time, since the glasses structure itself can transmit signals, the other electrode can be disposed at any position of the glasses, for example, the temples connected by the external component 930. Physiological signal acquisition can be performed on the frame unit or on the mirror side of the other side.

Another option is that, as described above, the original spectacles structure has two electrodes for obtaining electrophysiological signals, and the electrodes connected to the external components can change the sampling position and the sampling combination paradigm. , sampling signal types, etc., which also replace one of the original electrodes, or with the original electrode for signal extraction two options, in the reference combination paradigm and bipolar combination paradigm, and single channel sampling loop and double The channel sampling loop changes.

Here, it should be noted that the number of electrodes is not limited to the foregoing embodiment, and since the glasses structure itself can perform signal conduction, the position of the electrodes can also be measured according to the measurement. The demand has changed. For example, the electrode can be set according to the well-known 10-20 brain wave electrode configuration method (International 10-20 System), or according to a larger number of electrode configuration methods, or set to other desires. The location of the inspection can have various possibilities.

According to still another aspect of the present invention, a further improvement is made to the temples. As stated above, the object of the present invention is to provide a physiological signal capture function for the spectacles structure without changing the frontal appearance of the spectacles structure, and therefore the temples will be the most suitable position for performing the improvement.

Referring to FIG. 15 , a lens assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. The eyeglass structure has a frame unit and two mirror legs. Here, in particular, one of the temples is configured to have a lens. The replacement portion 1100, and a corresponding coupling member 1200, when combined, form a complete temple shape.

In the concept of the present invention, it is desirable to allow the spectacles structure to be changed as needed by the design of the replaceable portion, that is, to replace the replaceable portion with a different replacement portion to provide more possible physiological signals. Capture function.

In one embodiment, the replacement portion is implemented as a photo sensor module 130, and the photo sensor module includes at least part of circuitry and components required for capturing physiological signals. In this case, when the eyeglass structure is worn on the user's head, the light sensor 132 disposed on the surface will be located near the ear, for example, above the ear, V-shaped depression, or behind the ear, and through this position. The blood physiological signals, such as pulse wave signals, blood oxygen concentration, etc., are obtained, and the heart rate can be obtained by analyzing the pulse wave signals.

An advantage of such an embodiment is that even if only a common eyeglass structure is provided, the physiological information provided by the light sensor can be obtained simply by mechanically bonding, as long as the replaceable portion is provided at the temple. For example, Heart rate, therefore, as long as you wear glasses, you can light The physiological information is obtained loosely and naturally in daily life; moreover, the movement of the head is relatively small relative to the form worn on the hand, which will provide a more stable source of signals.

In another embodiment, the replacement portion is implemented as an electrode module, and the electrode module includes at least part of circuitry and components required for capturing electrophysiological signals, for example, one of In the case, the electrode module 140 can have two electrodes 141, 142 simultaneously contacting the skin of the head to obtain local myoelectric signals, skin electrical signals, brain electrical signals, etc.; or, in another case, the electrode mold The group 150 has an electrode 152 on one side that contacts the skin of the head, and the other electrode (not shown) is accessible to the upper limb to obtain an electrocardiogram. In this way, the electro-physiological signal acquisition function can be obtained by simply replacing the mechanically combined replacement action.

Alternatively, the spectacles structure having the replaceable portion can be an spectacles structure having circuitry and physiological sensing elements as previously described.

For example, in one embodiment, the replacement portion can be used to effect a change in electrode type, for example, the replaceable portion already has an electrode to match the other electrodes already present on the lens for signal extraction. Since the brain is divided into many regions, and different brain regions are in charge of different physiological activities of the human body, the brain activity obtained through the electrodes is the brain activity in the cerebral cortex region below the electrode position. Therefore, if you want to understand the brains of different regions, Cortical activity must be done by changing the position of the electrode, and this replaceable portion provides the possibility that, for example, the replacement portion 162 can also be implemented to extend upwardly so that the electrode can obtain brain activity in the temporal region. Alternatively, the replacement portion 164 can be implemented to extend the distance back longer so that the electrode can obtain brain activity in the occipital region of the cerebral cortex behind the head. Therefore, the diversity of physiological signal acquisition can be increased by simple replacement. Here, when hair shading may occur at the position where the electrodes are disposed, for example, behind the head or above the ear, the structure can be secured by using the contact as described above, for example, Needle electrodes, dispersion electrodes, etc., to ensure contact between the electrodes and the skin.

Further, the substitution portion can also be used to change or increase the physiological signal captured. For example, the replacement portion 170 can provide the photo sensor 172, and the original lens structure can increase the blood physiological signal. Function; or, if the lens structure has an electrode on only the other side of the temple and/or the frame unit, the replacement portion 180 can be used to provide the electrode 182 on the side mirror to increase the position of the EEG signal. Or, replacing the replaceable portion of the original electrode with the replacement portion without any physiological sensing element, and changing the sampling position of the electroencephalogram signal, for example, obtaining the EEG signal from both sides of the head becomes from the two eyes The brain and the head side get the EEG signal. Therefore, there are various possibilities.

Herein, it should be noted that the substituted portions described in the above embodiments are for illustrative purposes only, and are not limiting, and may vary depending on the actual design and architecture of the eyeglass structure with which it is combined, and are not limited to the above. In the case where the physiological signal capturing function of the eyeglass structure can be changed by replacing the replacement portion, it is applicable to the scope of the present invention.

In addition, the above situation may also be implemented in combination. For example, the photo sensor and the electrode may be simultaneously disposed in the replacement portion, or the photo sensor may be added while changing the electrode type, etc., which are feasible methods, and limit.

Therefore, through the substitution portion, it is possible to further impart more detection possibilities to the spectacles structure, which is also a quite advantageous option.

In addition to using the method of replacing the replaceable part to obtain the physiological signal acquisition function of the eyeglass structure, an external combination can also be adopted. As shown in FIG. 16A-16B, a pair of eyeglasses can be combined with the upper combination module 40. The bonding module itself has a complete physiological signal capturing function. For example, the bonding module shown in FIG. 16A has two electrodes 1110 and 1112, which can be implemented. Electrophysiological signal acquisition function, for example, obtaining an EEG signal, an EOG, a myoelectric signal, and/or a skin electrical signal, or, alternatively, the electrode on the bonding module can also be set as a contact head The skin is attached to the upper limb to obtain an electrocardiogram signal. In addition, FIG. 16B shows a schematic diagram of the optical sensor 1114 provided by the bonding module, and the bonding module can be obtained by setting the photo sensor. Blood physiological signals, in turn, pulse signals, blood oxygen concentration, etc. Of course, it is also possible to have both an electrode and a photo sensor on a combined module, without limitation.

In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 16C, the bonding module 40 is implemented to have a curved portion that faces the rear of the head when coupled to the temple and has an ear-wearing structure, for example, in the ear. The housing 920 can be coupled to the ear, wherein an electrode 1115 is disposed on the inner side of the curved portion and is implemented in a dispersed form to overcome the shading of the hair. Further, each of the discrete contact points can also be implemented as The retractable form is more conducive to achieving contact with the skin, and the other electrode 1116 is disposed on the ear-wearing structure, so that the electrode disposed on the ear-wearing structure is regarded as the reference electrode, and the bonding module The upper electrode is regarded as an activity detecting electrode, and an electroencephalogram signal of the occipital region of the cerebral cortex can be obtained; or, alternatively, the bonding module can also be implemented to be in contact with the V-shaped recessed position, so that Obtain brain signals from the temporal lobes of the cerebral cortex.

Advantageously, the circuit system can be disposed in the bonding module and/or the ear wearing structure without limitation, and the bonding module can be implemented as a plug or a sleeve. Particularly preferably, the ear contact portion is implemented with an adjustment mechanism as described above to align the same position of different users, for example, a V-shaped depression, thereby making the use more convenient, so there is no limitation. .

Here, when the bonding module is provided, it is preferable to select that the relative position between the electrode and/or the photo sensor and the head can be stably maintained, for example, the lens can be transmitted through the temple. A stable force is obtained by the action of the ear, or the position of the module can be used to achieve a stable contact position.

In this way, regardless of the form of the user's eyeglass structure, the physiological signal acquisition function can be obtained through the combined module, which is convenient to use and helps to increase the user's acceptance. The way of advantage.

Further, it can also be implemented to obtain physiological signals together through the ear wearing structure and other wearing structures. For example, in a preferred embodiment, in particular, the ear-wearing structure can be reconfigured to accommodate a wearable structure disposed on the neck and the head simultaneously, as shown in FIGS. 17A-17C, that is, the The wearing structure can be selectively placed on the neck or the head according to the needs of use, and when worn on the head, the wearable structure can be set in front of the forehead (Fig. 17C), set on the top of the head, or set. There is no limit behind the head.

Here, the wearing structure is implemented to have two end portions, and a curved portion connecting the two end portions, that is, a shape similar to C, and the wearing structure can be adapted to be disposed on the neck or the head through the curved portion. Preferably, the curved portion at least partially conforms to the curve behind the neck such that the wear portion falls on both sides and/or the front of the neck when the neck is wrapped around the neck. Forming a stable setting; on the other hand, when placed on the head, the curved portion can conform to the curve in front of, above and/or behind the head, and the two ends will fall on both sides of the head. To achieve a stable combination with the head.

Firstly, when implemented in a neck-wearing form, since the neck is used as a support, the volume and shape thereof can be freely changed, and compared with the arm-worn form or the wrist-worn form, except for the ear-wearing structure. The length of the connecting line is shortened, and the movement of the hand is not affected by the wiring, which increases the convenience of use, and the neck wearing form and the general wearing necklace are not Different, the user is quite easy to adapt.

Moreover, when implemented as a head-wearing form, the position of contact with the head is increased, so that the possibility of obtaining more brain signals of the cortex of different brain parts is also increased, and therefore, the user can also select differently. According to FIG. 5A, the frontal lobe EEG signal can be obtained when the electrode is placed at the forehead position, and the parietal region brain telecommunications can be obtained when the electrode is placed above the head. No. When the head is located behind the head, the occipital region EEG signal can be obtained, and when the electrode is disposed on the both ends, the temporal region EEG signal can be obtained, and when the electrode is disposed around the eye contact In some cases, for example, the forehead, the temple, and the like, the EOG can also be obtained at the same time.

In addition, the electrode contacting the head may also be implemented to obtain an electroencephalogram signal together with the electrode on the ear-wearing structure, without limitation, and when the contact position of the electrode on the wearing structure has hair, for example, the head and the head The position of the rear side, the side of the head, and the like may be as described above, using a contact securing structure, for example, as a dispersion electrode, a bump electrode, and/or a telescopic electrode, to help pass through the hair. The difficulty in contacting the electrode with the skin is lowered.

Here, the wearing structure can be adapted to be worn on the neck and the head at the same time, and there are different implementation possibilities. For example, the material can be applied to the sides of the head by selecting a material, for example, an elastic material. Achieving a fixed effect, such as elastic steel, elastic plastic, etc.; also through structural design, for example, can be just fit to be placed on the auricle, or can have a structure to prevent movement; and/or can also be added by adding auxiliary members Achieving stable contact with the head, for example, by adding a structure that tensions the two ends, such as an elastic band, or by adding a cushioning structure to the inner surface of the wearing structure, the wearable structure can be stably maintained on the head. Therefore, there is no limit. Further, if the circuit is mainly distributed at the two ends, it is also possible to implement that the bent portion is replaceable, In order to replace different shapes, materials, sizes, colors, etc., it is more convenient to use. On the other hand, it can be implemented to replace the two ends, and the executable function can be changed by replacing different circuits. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no restrictions.

In addition, through such a structural design, since the feeling of wearing a necklace is the same, the user will not feel an extra burden, and on the other hand, the accommodation space of the circuit can be increased to increase the available space. Features, for example, configurable large-capacity batteries for extended usage, music playback, GPS positioning, and/or additional control interface for easy access to both ends as shown in Figure 17A , are quite advantageous choices.

Still further, it can also be implemented in the form of two ear-wearing structures. As mentioned above, this form can also be implemented to communicate with a portable electronic device, for example, by wired or wireless means such as a headphone jack or a Bluetooth device, to communicate with external electronic devices such as smart phones and tablets. In this way, in the case of having a sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction type) and a sound pickup element, it can be used as a hands-free handset for talking, and can also play music from a portable electronic device; Further, further, by providing a vibration module, a sounding element (air conduction type or bone conduction type), a display element, and a light emitting element, etc., an information providing interface as the portable electronic device can be further implemented, for example, In order to provide call reminders, mobile phone message notifications, etc., it is more integrated into the daily life of the user. As for the provision of information, there are various restrictions such as sound, vibration, illumination, and lens display.

Further, when implemented to have a headphone function, especially for listening to music, it is preferably in the form of a binaural wear to provide a better hearing effect for the user, for example, in two auricles. The inner casing is provided inside, and the music is provided through a wireless connection or a wired connection between the two, for example, divided into left and right channels, so that the music has a stereo effect, and further, It can be implemented as a memory in the earphone to store music and provide a playback function, so that even if it is not communicated with the portable electronic device, the music can be listened to, which is more convenient to use.

Accordingly, in a preferred embodiment, the processor module and the wireless transmission module are disposed in a single-sided ear-worn structure, for example, a Bluetooth device, and an ear-wearing device is formed to be externally The portable electronic device communicates, for example, the acquired physiological signals and information are transmitted to the portable electronic device, and then provided to the user. On the other hand, in addition to the physiological signal capturing function, the sounding component is also provided. And a signal transmission port for receiving signals from the outside, for example, an audio signal, wherein the source of the audio signal has several different options, for example, from the connection to the telecommunication transmission port. Another ear-wearing device, for example, an audio signal stored in the other ear-wearing device; or an external portable electronic device, and may be obtained by wired or wireless means, for example, may be the other The earphone device is connected to the portable electronic device by a connecting cable or wirelessly connected to the portable electronic device, and then connected to the electrical signal transmitting device, or alternatively, can be implemented as The electrical signal is connected by a wired transmission port to the portable electronic device acquires an audio signal, are all possible choices.

As for the playback of the audio signal, it is performed by a processor module and an audio control circuit located in the other ear-wearing device, wherein the electrical connection is achieved through the electrical signal transmission between the two ear-wearing devices. The audio control circuit can drive the sounding element to perform audio playback, and further, when the other earwear device also has a sounding element, a stereo effect can be achieved.

Since the physiological signal capturing circuit and the audio control circuit are separately disposed in the design of the two ear-wearing devices, it is advantageous that the connection between the two ear-wearing devices can be implemented as a removable form, so that an example is given. In other words, when the user only needs to perform physiological signal detection, the other ear wearing device can be removed, and when there is a need to listen to music, only the ear wearing the other side is needed. The device (and connected to the portable electronic device) can be used conveniently, and the other ear-wearing device can also be used alone to provide a single-ear music playing function, and further, if the other ear-wearing device is also The other earphone device can also be used as the earphone microphone of the portable electronic device. In addition, the other earphone device can also be implemented as an electrode and can be simultaneously worn by both earwear devices. There is also no restriction on the acquisition of physiological signals. In this case, the connection between the two ear-wearing structures can be used to transmit physiological signals in addition to the transmission of audio signals.

Therefore, through such a design, the two earwear devices can be used alone, in addition to being used in combination, and can be strained according to changes in the user's use requirements at different times, which is a rather advantageous combination.

It should be noted that, depending on the purpose of use and the design requirements, the transmission between the two ear-wear devices, including audio signal transmission and physiological signal transmission, may also have various combinations, for example, in a single ear. In the case of obtaining a physiological signal, the wired connection between the two devices can be used only for transmitting the audio signal, and when the physiological signal is acquired through the physiological sensing elements respectively disposed on the two devices, for example, electrodes, The physiological signal is transmitted through a wired transmission, and in this case, the audio signal can be implemented to be transmitted by wire or wirelessly, without limitation.

As for the operation interface for controlling the playing of audio and determining whether to make a wireless connection, it can be set at a position convenient for the user according to requirements, for example, a connecting line between the ear wearing device and the portable electronic device, two ears. There is no limitation on the connecting line of the wearing device, or the wearing structure which can be set on the neck or the head as described above.

On the other hand, when implemented in a double-eared form, both sides of the ear-wearing structure For wired or wireless connection, the following options can be selected for audio playback and physiological signal acquisition. For example, it can be implemented as a circuit in one ear-wearing structure to control physiological signals, and on the other side of the circuit in the ear-wearing structure. The control sound playback can also be implemented as a circuit in one ear wearing structure to simultaneously control physiological signal capture and sound playback, without limitation; further, the configuration of the electrodes can be implemented as a single-sided ear-worn structure. The electrodes are arranged for physiological signal acquisition, or the electrodes may be arranged on both sides of the ear wearing structure. For example, the electrodes on both sides may cooperate to obtain an EEG signal, or the two ear-wearing structures may independently perform brain There is no limit to the extraction of electrical signals, or changes through settings, depending on the needs.

Next, the application range of the spectacles structure according to the present invention will be described.

As described above, the spectacles structure according to the present invention can obtain various electrophysiological signals, such as an electroencephalogram signal, an ocular electrical signal, a myoelectric signal, a skin electrical signal, an electrocardiogram signal, and the like, depending on the position at which the electrodes are disposed. By additionally providing a light sensor, blood physiological signals, such as pulse wave signals, blood oxygen concentration, etc., can be obtained, and the eyeglass structure is suitable for long-term wear on the face, so that the eyeglass structure according to the present invention has various applications. may.

For example, it can be applied to a neurophysiological feedback program. The common purposes of neurophysiological feedback include, but are not limited to, relaxation, and improvement of attention, etc., and the physiological information most importantly referred to by neurophysiological feedback is to obtain brain activity by measuring electroencephalogram signals, and the lens structure through the present invention. To set the electrodes, not only the setting of the electrodes becomes quite convenient, but also the neurophysiological feedback procedure for improving the physical and mental condition can be performed at any time and place.

In addition, there is also a neurophysiological feedback aimed at training the balance of the left and right brains, or understanding whether the left and right brains are synchronized, and this case is particularly suitable for the use of the spectacles-based EEG detection device of the present invention because the original structure of the glasses Have separate mounting on two ears The temples can be respectively contacted on both sides of the head, for example, the cerebral cortex and temporal region (the electrodes on the temples on both sides are connected to the temporal lobe area), or the occipital region of the cerebral cortex (both on both temples) Figure 11E shows the posterior curved structure of the temple, or the frontal cortex of the cerebral cortex (using the upper edge of the frame to contact the top of the eyelid). Therefore, the movement of the left and right hemispheres can be naturally obtained by simply arranging the electrode positions appropriately. For example, a common reference electrode can be provided, for example, at the end of the temple to contact the mastoid bone, or on an external ear-wear structure, and form a sampling loop with a single electrode on a different temple (dual channel) The reference combination paradigm); or a reference electrode can be placed on both sides of the temple to form a sampling channel with the electrodes on the same side or the other side of the temple, and the same half-brain activity can be obtained ( Two-channel reference combination paradigm); or, two electrodes can be placed on each of the temples, and the two electrodes on the one-sided temples form a single sampling channel, so that different half-brain activities can be obtained separately. (dual channel Paradigm electrode combinations).

In addition to understanding the left and right hemi-brain activity, when the electrode is placed close to the eye, for example, the position of the frame in contact with the eye, or the position of the temple contacting the side of the eye, etc., such configuration is also via the EO signal. It can be used to understand the left and right eye movements, so it has various uses.

In a special embodiment, the sampling circuit is formed by the electrode on the right nose pad and the electrode on the right temple, and the electrode on the left nose pad and the electrode on the left temple form a sampling circuit. The method is particularly advantageous for obtaining the actions of the left and right eyes. Here, it is only necessary to separate the circuits of the two circuits. For example, the metal parts in the frame are implemented as two parts that are not connected to each other to be used separately. The nose pad on one side is connected to the metal hinge structure on the same side, and in this case, the distribution of the circuit can be directly disposed in the eyeglass structure of the left and right portions, or can be combined with the temple by the external module. The settings are all possible implementations.

Furthermore, it can also be applied to general physiological feedback programs, for example, a large part of The purpose of physiological feedback is to relax the body and mind, and the skin electrical signal is the most common physiological signal used to represent the degree of relaxation in the physiological feedback program. In addition, the myoelectric signal can also indicate the degree of muscle tension, which is also related to the physiological signal of relaxation. .

Further, the information providing unit of the present invention, for example, a lens, a light-emitting element, a display element, a display unit, etc., which are disposed on the eyeglass structure, an earphone connected to the eyeglass structure, and the like, and a mobile phone or tablet that communicates with the eyeglass structure Computers, etc., in the various physiological feedback programs described above, the user will be able to instantly understand the changes in his or her physiological state, for example, through visual, auditory, and/or tactile sensations, and use it as a basis for self-consciousness control.

In addition, when a photo sensor is provided, a blood physiological signal of the user, for example, a pulse wave signal, a blood oxygen concentration, etc., can be obtained, wherein when a continuous pulse wave signal can be obtained, a heart rate change can be obtained, except To let users know the heart rate changes during wearing, they can be further used to obtain RSA information (Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia), and through RSA information, the user's breathing situation can be known, according to which The spectacles structure of the present invention can be applied to perform breathing training, for example, to provide a user's breathing guide in conjunction with the information providing unit, and/or a physiological state that changes due to breathing training, and in addition, through the heart rate variability ( HRV, Heart rate variability) can also understand the activity of the autonomic nervous system, which is also an important basis for judging whether the human body is in a state of relaxation or tension.

In addition, since increasing the amplitude of the RSA helps trigger the Relaxation Response and relieves the accumulated pressure, the effect of increasing the proportion of parasympathetic/sympathetic nerve activity is achieved, so that the user's heart rate change pattern can be observed, and When the heart rate starts to accelerate, the user is informed by the guide that the inhalation can be started, and when the heart rate begins to slow down, the user is informed through the guide that the exhalation can be started to increase the amplitude of the RSA, that is, to cause breathing and heart. The coherence between rates also helps to achieve relaxation. Furthermore, due to the magnitude of the amplitude of the peaks and troughs of the RSA, that is, the difference between the maximum and minimum values of the heart rate during a breathing cycle, it is related to the activity of the autonomic nervous system. This information is provided to the user in real time as a basis for the user to adjust physiological activities.

In a special embodiment, as shown in FIG. 18, the circuit system is disposed in a wrist-worn structure, for example, in a wristwatch or a wristband, that is, the user can have an EEG signal capture function in peacetime. The wristwatch/brace is worn on the wrist. When it is necessary to measure the EEG signal, the eyeglass structure is connected to complete the electrical connection with the electrode on the lens structure, or the wrist wearing structure and the glasses are usually worn. Connecting the two when measuring demand is equally convenient and suitable for everyday life, and this situation is particularly suitable for physiological feedback and breathing training.

Due to the portability provided by the wrist-worn device and the convenience of setting up the information providing unit thereon, the design of the EEG signal can be obtained only by matching the lens structure, so that the user can almost no time or place. Perform physiological feedback/breathing training. At this time, if the electrode can be further disposed on the wrist-worn structure, the electrocardiogram is obtained together with the electrode on the eyeglass structure, or the light sensor is disposed on the eyeglass structure or the wrist-worn structure. By taking the heart rate, you can understand the breathing situation, and then perform the breathing training program. If you have both the ECG electrode and the light sensor, you can get the pulse transit time (PTT), and then use PTT and blood pressure. The reference blood pressure value is calculated or the PPT is further utilized as the physiological feedback information. Therefore, it is a relatively advantageous embodiment to obtain a variety of physiological information by simply wearing a wrist-worn structure and a spectacles structure, and it is easy to operate.

Moreover, since the position of the wrist-worn structure is the position where the information providing interface is generally set, for example, a watch, a wristband, therefore, during physiological feedback or breathing training, It is natural to provide physiological feedback through the wrist-worn structure, and/or breathing guide, or as a user's input interface, and further, if the user chooses to close the eyes for physiological feedback or breathing training. The sound can also be connected to the wrist wearing structure, for example, to the wrist wearing structure, or extended from the eyeglass structure, or disposed on the eyeglass structure to generate audio, for example, may be stored in several audio files. Or to generate audio instantly, for example, audio of a specific frequency, and the audio may be sound and/or voice, and then give feedback and/or guidance to the user through an audible manner; or through a wrist-worn structure and/or glasses It is a particularly advantageous way for the structure to give the user feedback and/or guidance in a manner that vibrates.

Here, the sound emitting element can be implemented to be disposed on an ear wearing structure, for example, implemented as an earphone to be worn on the ear, which is more convenient to use, and, further, can also be set on the ear wearing structure An electrode, for example, is disposed on a surface of the inner ear housing to obtain an electroencephalogram signal, for example, as described above, with an electrode on the eyeglass structure to obtain an electroencephalogram signal, for example, as a reference electrode, or two It is possible to obtain the EEG signal separately from the electrode, or the electrode for the upper limb can be placed on the ear wearing structure, so that the electrocardiogram can be obtained together with the electrode on the lens structure, or The electrocardiographic signal is obtained by using the electrode on the ear-wearing structure together with the electrode on the wrist-worn structure; further, a light sensor can be disposed on the ear-wearing structure to obtain the heart rate, and as described above, the heart rate can be obtained. Physiological information, such as HRV, RSA, respiratory behavior, etc., can also be applied to physiological feedback and/or breathing training, in addition, when using two wearable structures to obtain ECG signals, for example, wrist Electrocardiographic signals can also be used to perform physiological feedback and/or breathing training when the electrodes on the structure are used in conjunction with the glasses structure/electrodes on the ear-worn structure.

Further, in addition to the above functions, the wrist-worn structure can provide other physiological signal detection options, for example, an electrode can be provided on the surface in contact with the wrist, and An electrode is disposed on a surface accessible to the upper limb to obtain an electrocardiographic signal by contacting the electrodes with both hands; or two electrodes may be disposed on the surface of the wrist to obtain a skin electrical signal and/or a myoelectric signal; or, Extending the finger-wearing structure, the finger-wearing structure can be implemented to have two electrodes on the surface in contact with the finger to obtain the skin electrical signal and/or the myoelectric signal, or only one electrode, and the matching is available Another electrode that is in contact with another upper limb, for example, is disposed on the wrist-worn structure, the eyeglass structure, or the finger-wearing structure to obtain an electrocardiographic signal, wherein the finger-wearing structure can also be used to set a light sensor to obtain a heart rate. Blood physiology information such as blood oxygen concentration is also a very advantageous way. In addition, the acquisition of the skin electrical signal can also be achieved by electrodes on the wrist-worn structure and electrodes on the other wearing structure, for example, a wearing structure, a spectacles structure, or an ear-wearing structure.

In addition to being applied to physiological feedback and respiratory guidance, it can also be used to detect the mental state of the human body.

The mental state of a person can be known through many physiological signals, such as the brain electrical signal, the EO signal, the active state of the autonomic nervous system, etc., wherein different brainwave frequencies represent different mental states of the human body, for example, when the human body When in a conscious and focused state, the dominant β wave (about 12-28 Hz) can be measured. On the other hand, when the human body is in a relaxed state, the dominant alpha wave (about 8-12 Hz) can be measured. When the sleep state is about to enter, a lower frequency brain wave can be observed.

Furthermore, in the autonomic nervous system, when the sympathetic nerve activity increases, the human body tends to be in a state of tension, and when the parasympathetic nerve activity increases, the human body enters a state of relaxation, and during this period, various physiological processes of the human body. There will also be corresponding changes in the phenomenon. For example, when the parasympathetic activity increases, the heart rate will decrease. Therefore, the mental state of the person can be understood by observing the physiological signals reflecting the changes in the autonomic nervous system.

In addition, a large number of experiments have confirmed that the blink mode has a certain correlation with the degree of fatigue, lack of attention, and stress, and these also reflect the mental state of the person. Therefore, by detecting the EO signal. Knowing the blink mode, for example, whether the number of blinks per unit time changes, and whether the blink speed is slow, etc., also helps to understand the mental state of the person, for example, whether there is drowsiness, and these can be obtained through the EOG. And learned.

As mentioned above, these signals can be obtained by the spectacles structure of the present invention, and since it is intended to detect the awake state, the degree of drowsiness, or the degree of fatigue during daily life, study, and work, the spectacles structure The advantage of being unobtrusive and user-accepted will be the most suitable choice.

Further, if the physiological information is simultaneously referred to, the accuracy of the detection result can be effectively improved. For example, when the EEG signal is obtained, the EEG signal is also referred to to know the eye activity of the user. The situation, or the simultaneous analysis of brain waves and the state of autonomic nervous activity, to increase the accuracy of judgment through multiple indicators.

Therefore, in a preferred embodiment, the present invention is implemented to determine a person's mental state by simultaneously detecting an electroencephalogram signal and an eye movement signal. The combination is selected based on knowing the user's presence at the frequency of the brain wave. In the case of mental concentration or relaxation, if the eye movement status can be confirmed with the upper eye signal, it will help to determine that the user is not at rest. In addition, the eye-electric signal can also provide the user. The information of the blink mode, for example, as described above, whether the number of blinks and/or the blink speed changes, so that the user's mental state can be judged more accurately.

As mentioned above, the electrodes can be arranged by the electrodes on the frame unit, for example, the bridge of the nose, the root of the mountain, the area between the eyes, the circumference of the eyelids, and the electrodes on the upper arm. When the EEG signal and the EEG signal are obtained, the signal strength and signal characteristics of the two signals are different to some extent. Therefore, the signal processing can be used to separate the two. According to this, at least two are required. In the case of the electrode, two physiological signals for judging the mental state can be simultaneously obtained, which not only greatly reduces the complexity of setting the physiological sensing component, but also maximizes the use efficiency, which is a quite advantageous way, and With such a design, the user can easily monitor his or her mental state by simply wearing glasses, which is quite convenient.

In a further preferred embodiment, the present invention is implemented to simultaneously utilize an ocular electrical signal and heart rate information as a basis for determining a mental state. The reason for using these two kinds of physiological information is that in addition to the eye-eye signal analysis, the heart rate information can be analyzed, and many physiological information representing the mental state can be obtained, for example, as described above. Analysis of heart rate information can be obtained from autonomic nervous activity information and respiratory conditions. Among them, autonomic nervous activity can judge that the mental state is nervous or relaxed. In addition, when the mental state is relaxed, tired, and lethargic, the respiratory rate will also become lower. Therefore, it can be used as a basis for judgment. In addition, under the control of the autonomic nervous system, the heart rate will also decrease in heart rate during relaxation, fatigue, and sleepiness. Therefore, by combining brain wave frequency and heart rate information, it can also help to more accurately determine the user's mental state.

On the other hand, since the usual application of mental state detection is during normal daily work, for example, during driving, the reminder mechanism is also quite important. Advantageously, based on the structural characteristics of the spectacles structure, when it is determined that the user's mental state is not good, for example, when a predetermined value is met, the reminder can be naturally issued by the information providing interface provided on the spectacles structure. The message, in turn, allows the user to improve their mental state. For example, as described above, the light-emitting element can be disposed near the glasses, and the visual reminder effect can be achieved by setting the display element, the display unit, etc., for example, emitting a flash, Produce color changes, alert messages, etc.; or, It is also possible to provide a sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction form) near the position where the temple is close to the ear, or to extend the earphone (air conduction or bone conduction form) by the temple to remind the voice or voice; or It is also possible to generate vibration by providing a vibration module at a position where the eyeglass structure is in contact with the skin, and it is also possible to provide the vibration module in the earphone without limitation.

Of course, it can also be implemented to provide the judged mental state to the user through the information providing interface, for example, the mental state can be digitized, displayed by numbers, or the color change, the vibration size, The size of the sound, etc., to express the current state of mind, there is no limit.

In addition, the obtained physiological signal may be implemented by transmitting a physiological signal to the external device, in addition to performing a calculation/analysis by a processor module disposed in the wearable structure to obtain a reminder message. The external device performs a mental state analysis based on the received physiological signal. At this time, the information about the mental state and the reminder message when the user needs to be reminded can be directly provided to the information through the information providing interface of the external device. Or return it to the wearable device and provide it through the information providing unit on it. In another preferred embodiment, the device that is worn on the body transmits the generated mental state information and/or the reminder message to the external device, and the information providing interface of the external device transmits the relevant mental state information and/or Or a reminder message is provided to the user. It should be noted that the external device can also provide information and/or information to the user by generating tactile, audible, or visual signals, without limitation.

In addition, since the detection of the awake state mostly lies in daily life, for example, driving for a long time, if the start time point of the mark detection can be matched, for example, when the driving state is started, the detection of the mental state can be started. Accurately provide judgment results.

Furthermore, it can also be applied to stimulate the human body to achieve a change in physiological state and brain. For example, the more common function is to achieve relaxation and improve concentration, for example, treating ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), improving memory, and changing spirit. Status, for example, treatment of PTSD (Post traumatic Stress Disorder), improvement of mental capacity and performance, changes in brain state, for example, treatment of dementia (Dementia), change of cognitive state (cognitive state ), changing / inducing sleep states and other effects.

For this application, the spectacles structure has the advantage that its original structure surrounds the head and covers the eye, so that stimuli in either visual, auditory, and/or tactile forms can be implemented, for example Display elements such as display elements, light-emitting elements, etc., may be provided on one side, or on both sides of the frame or the temples close to the eyes, for example, to generate flashes, color changes, etc. for visual stimulation; or to approach the ears of the temples A sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction type) is arranged near the position, or an earphone (air conduction or bone conduction type) is connected to generate an auditory stimulation; or an oscillator can be arranged on the frame or the temple. To generate a vibration stimulus; or, further, electrical stimulation can be generated by providing an electrode. Similarly, when implemented as an ear-worn structure, it can also generate these stimuli, for example, the display element can be extended by the ear-worn structure, the sound-emitting element can be placed within the ear-worn structure, and/or the vibration module can be placed within the ear-worn structure. Etc., and electrical stimulation is performed through electrodes disposed on the ear-worn structure.

First, the eyeglass structure and the ear-wearing structure based on the present invention are originally provided with electrodes, and therefore, are advantageously applied to perform electrical stimulation.

For example, common electrical stimuli include, for example, tCS (transcranial current Stimulation), TENS (Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation), MET (Microcurrent Electrical Therapy, micro) Current electrotherapy), as well as other known electrical stimuli, etc., wherein common forms of tCS include tDCS (transcranial Direct Current Stimulation), tACS (transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation), and tRNS (tRNS) Transcranial Random Noise Stimulation, and in particular, because transcranial electrical stimulation (current application range is usually less than 2 mA) is applied to the local physiology above the cerebral cortex, thereby affecting the corresponding cerebral cortex Activity, and the applied current is very weak, therefore, during the execution of electrical stimulation, the subject usually does not have a distinct sensation, wherein different cerebral cortical regions (as shown in Figure 5A) respectively administer the human body Different functions, for example, the vision is mainly controlled by the occipital region, the hearing is mainly controlled by the temporal lobe region, the body sensation is mainly controlled by the parietal lobe, and the advanced cognitive functions, such as language and self-awareness, are mainly controlled by the frontal lobe. Therefore, by placing the electrodes on the skull corresponding to different cerebral cortical areas, in addition to obtaining the phase Activity outer cortex of the case, may also affect the transmission mode for electrically stimulate the area of the cerebral cortex.

There is also a type of electrical stimulation, Electrode stimulation of tongue. According to research, electrical stimulation of the tongue activates two major cranial nerves: the lingual nerve (part of the trigeminal nerve) and the chorda tympani (part of the facial nerve), while the stimulation of the cranial nerve is able to Produces flow of neural impulses that are transmitted to the parietal cortical somatosensory region and directly to the brainstem, where the brain stem is the control center for many vital functions, including sensory perception and movement, and then, starting from the brainstem These nerve impulses will pass through the brain and activate, or reactivate, neurons and structures associated with brain function - the cerebral cortex, the spinal cord, and, potentially, the entire central nervous system.

It is known that in addition to the various functions described above, electrical stimulation is applied to the human body. It is also known to help improve certain symptoms, such as local pain such as shoulder and neck pain, migraine, depression, epilepsy, stroke, etc., where the stimulation is used, for example, trigeminal nerve, vagus nerve, sympathetic nerve, The cerebral cortex, etc., are located near the head and the ear, just adjacent to the structure of the glasses and the position of the ear-wearing structure, for example, the earlobe, the auricle, the ear canal, the back of the ear, the vicinity of the temple, the forehead, the top of the head, the back of the head, etc. Many branches of the trigeminal nerve, for example, the auriculotemporal nerve is located near and above the ear, in addition, the supraorbital nerve, the supratrochlear artery nerve, and the ophthalmic nerve. It is located near the eyelids and forehead, and these are just the positions where the eyeglass structure/ear-wearing structure is placed in contact with the head/ear. Therefore, it is quite suitable for the use of the eyeglass structure and the ear-wearing structure; The effect of improving the physiological state is achieved by electrically activating acupuncture points.

For example, it can be implemented in the form of glasses, which can directly pass through two electrodes disposed on the structure of the glasses, for example, electrodes contacting both sides of the head, or electrodes contacting the area between the eyes and the side of the head. The portion is electrically stimulated; in addition, when the ear-wearing structure is simultaneously provided, the brain can be electrically stimulated together with the electrodes on the lens through the electrode disposed on the ear-wearing structure as described above. Since the electrical stimulation can be performed by directly wearing the wearing structure to complete the contact of the electrodes, the execution of the electrical stimulation can be made simpler and more convenient regardless of the form.

In addition to directly using the electrodes on the wearing structure for electrical stimulation, other embodiments may be used. For example, the wearable structure may be used as a medium to extend the electrodes for electrical stimulation. For example, only one extension may be extended. Electrode, and performing electrical stimulation together with one of the electrodes on the wearing structure, or extending two electrodes, and performing electrical stimulation through the two extended electrodes, is a feasible way, and when using the form of the extended electrode, Advantageously, The position at which the contact is selected becomes wider, and is not limited to the position at which the wearing structure is disposed. For example, as shown in FIGS. 19A-19B, the electrode may be extended from the temple of the eyeglass to contact the back of the neck, behind the ear, forehead, etc. The electrode can also be extended by the ear-wearing structure to contact the forehead, the temple, the back of the neck, the back of the ear, etc., so that there are various possibilities, and it should be noted that although the figure shows that two electrodes are extended, It is implemented to extend only one electrode, and there is no limitation.

When the electrode is extended, the electrode can be placed on the skin by means of an attachment element, for example, a patch as shown in the figure, or the attachment element can be another wearable structure, for example, extended by the structure of the eyeglass. The ear wear structure, the neck wear structure, the arm wear structure, the wrist wear structure, the finger wear structure, and the like.

Alternatively, it is also possible for the ear-wearing structure to extend out of another wearing structure, for example, another ear-wearing structure, a head-wearing structure, a neck-wearing structure, an arm-worn structure, a wrist-worn structure, a finger-wearing structure, and the like, all of which are feasible. Wherein, the head-wearing structure allows the electrodes to be placed in the frontal and parietal regions corresponding to the cerebral cortex (as shown in FIGS. 20A-20B) and the occipital region according to the position of the setting, and the neck-wearing structure allows The electrode is placed at a position near the neck and the shoulder, and therefore, it can be changed according to actual use requirements, and there is no limitation.

Furthermore, in particular, when the tongue is electrically stimulated, the attachment element can be implemented as an internal structure to allow the user to set a plurality of electrodes on the tongue, and when the tongue is electrically stimulated, The electrode arrangement on the intraoral structure is preferably implemented in a matrix form, for example, a 9 x 9 or 12 x 12 electrode configuration, and may be implemented to vary depending on program control when providing electrical stimulation. The electrical stimulation mode changes, for example, an electrical stimulation pattern having a temporal or spatial variation generated through the electrode configuration, and thus can be changed according to actual use requirements without limitation.

In addition, when implemented as two extension electrodes, it may be implemented to be respectively carried by two extension elements, or may be implemented as one extension element simultaneously carrying two electrodes, without limitation.

Here, it should be noted that the electrode used, whether it is an electrode disposed on the wearing structure or an extended electrode, may be implemented as a dry electrode or a wet electrode, for example, an electrode using a conductive paste. There is no limitation, and among them, it is particularly advantageous to use a self-adhesive wet electrode, for example, a patch electrode, to further improve the contact stability between the electrode and the skin in addition to the wearing structure, and there are many options for the form to be implemented. For example, it is possible to use a wet electrode by extending the form, or to replace the electrode of the original wear structure with a wet electrode.

In the case of a dry electrode, it is particularly advantageous to use a contact securing structure as described above, for example as a discrete electrical contact, and/or as a telescopic structure, in particular Yes, the contact points near the head are likely to be blocked by the hair, and by using the contact to ensure the structure, the execution of the electrical stimulation will be ensured. Therefore, a suitable electrode type can be selected depending on the purpose of use, and there is no limitation.

In implementation, a signal is generated by a signal generating unit and transmitted to an electrode connected thereto, thereby causing the electrode to apply electrical stimulation to the user. Therefore, by changing the electrical signal, the electrode is applied to the use. The electrical stimulation of the person can be changed. Here, it should be noted that the generated electrical stimulation is a non-invasive form, and the content of the applied electrical stimulation may be changed according to the purpose of the electrical stimulation, for example, a sine wave, a square wave or the like may be selected. The current or voltage of the waveform changes, or in the case of pulse wave, even if the frequency is the same, the duration of the stimulus can be changed by Pulse Width Modulation; or, in the hope of using DC power for stimulation. In this case, the direct current can be used as an offset, and the selected waveform is loaded thereon, which is also a feasible manner, and thus there is no limitation.

In addition, it is further advantageous that since the wearing structure of the present invention is originally designed to acquire an EEG signal and/or other physiological signals, the detection function of the physiological signal and the electrical stimulation can be combined on the same device. Through such a combination, it is equivalent to directly providing a means to confirm the effect of electrical stimulation, which is undoubtedly a more advantageous choice.

For example, one of the physiological states that changes due to electrical stimulation is the brain activity state, and the change can be known through the EEG signal. For example, as described above, the ratio of the alpha wave to the beta wave can be observed. In addition, we can understand the relaxation and tension of the user at the moment. In addition, the multi-channel setting can be used to know the activity and energy difference between the left and right brains. Furthermore, the potential difference between the left and right brains can be observed. In addition, the cortical slow potential ( SCP) can be used to understand the brain activity of concentration, and after understanding the state of brain activity, it can adjust various parameters of electrical stimulation, such as current, voltage, intensity, frequency, duty cycle, The duration is affected, and the brain is affected, and the purpose is achieved. Further, after the electrical stimulation is performed, the effect of the electrical stimulation can be known by understanding the change in the brain activity, and adjustment can be made as a basis.

Alternatively, electrodermal activity (EDA) is also an indicator of changes in physiological status. The electrical activity of the skin for electrical stimulation can be obtained through electrodes placed on the head or electrodes extending to other parts of the body, such as the neck, shoulders, wrists, and fingers, whether before the start of electrical stimulation or electricity. During the stimulation execution period and/or after the electrical stimulation, the changes in the electrical activity of the skin can be observed as a reference for determining and/or adjusting the electrical stimulation mode.

Alternatively, the physiological state changed by electrical stimulation can also be observed by detecting changes in heart rate. The heart rate is calculated to give the heart rate variability (HRV), and the heart rate variability is the best way to know the autonomic nervous system. Therefore, the purpose of electrical stimulation is to relax, improve attention, and improve. Mental state, improved sleep state, altered brain shape State, or the treatment of certain symptoms, through the understanding of changes in the autonomic nervous system, can effectively control the relevant physiological changes, and then as a basis for adjusting electrical stimulation. Here, the heart rate can be obtained by arranging a photo sensor or an electrocardiographic electrode without limitation.

On the other hand, when detecting brain waves and discovering that the user is drowsing, the effect of reminding and preventing falling asleep can be achieved through the execution of electrical stimulation. For example, the user can choose to wear glasses and headphones while driving or studying. The neck wear structure, etc., and monitor the brain wave, skin electrical activity, and/or heart rate to know whether there is drowsiness as a basis for generating electrical stimulation.

Here, it should be noted that when the detected physiological signal is an electrophysiological signal, the electrode for obtaining the electrophysiological signal and the electrode for performing the electrical stimulation may be further implemented to be shared with each other, for example, One electrode is shared, or both electrodes are shared, which simplifies the overall configuration.

The above-described implementation of the electrical stimulation based on the physiological state may have different implementation options. For example, it can be implemented by the signal generating unit to automatically control the generation of electrical stimulation, the mode of electrical stimulation, the parameter of electrical stimulation, or can be implemented by the user, for example, through the screen of the mobile phone and the display worn on the wrist. The component, the lens of the glasses, or the earphone, etc., notifying the user of the measured physiological state information, after which the user can determine whether he or she wants to perform electrical stimulation, which electrical stimulation mode to select, or Whether to adjust the electrical stimulation parameters, etc., of course, can also be implemented to select the automatic or manual operation mode according to the needs, there is no limit.

For example, a set of electrical stimulation modes may be provided for the user to freely select, or further implemented to first select a relevant electrical stimulation mode from the set according to the measured physiological state information, and then provide for use. The selection may be made, or it may be implemented so that the user can adjust the electrical stimulation parameter settings as described above, which are possible implementations, without limitation.

Therefore, electrical stimulation through the wearing structure does provide a way to make the implementation of electrical stimulation easier. If the physiological signal of the user can be obtained immediately, it is more helpful to improve the adjustment and selection of the electrical stimulation mode. And the effect that electrical stimulation can achieve, it is indeed a very advantageous way.

On the other hand, on the premise that the eyeglass structure and/or the ear-wearing structure of the present invention can obtain an electroencephalogram signal, in particular, it can also be applied to perform physiological resonance stimulation (Physiological Resonance Stimulation).

First, a brain activity detecting unit obtains an EEG signal for a specific time through at least two EEG electrodes, and then performs a frequency domain analysis process on the acquired EEG signals through a processing unit, for example, through Fourier transform. Or use a digital filter to obtain the energy distribution of the EEG signal, and then in different brainwave bands, for example, δ band (0.1-3 Hz), θ band (4-7 Hz), slow α Frequency band (8-9 Hz), intermediate alpha band (9-12 Hz), fast alpha band (12-14 Hz), slow beta band (12.5-16 Hz), intermediate beta band (16.5-20 Hz), fast In the beta band (20.5-28 Hz), or in other bands, one or several peak energies during that time can be observed, for example, an energy peak of 8 Hz in the alpha band, or 8 Hertz and 10 Hz energy peaks, and after selecting a frequency range, for example, selecting an alpha band or a self-defined range of frequencies, a stimulus signal generating unit can be based on the frequency of the energy peak in the band. Producing a physiological stimulus signal and applying To the user.

Here, it should be noted that the specific time can be implemented as instant, for example, the frequency domain analysis process is performed once every second or less, or for a longer period of time, for example, 5 minutes or longer. Time, then perform long-term segmentation to perform frequency domain analysis processing, and then take the average value. Or direct frequency domain analysis processing for the whole period of time is a possible way, which can be changed according to actual needs, without certain restrictions.

As for the decision of the frequency of the stimulation signal, the preferred way after the study is to select a frequency having a frequency proportional relationship with the energy peak. For example, if the frequency of the stimulation signal is assumed to be n and the frequency of the energy peak is m, then n and It is feasible that m is an integer proportional relationship. For example, n:m can be 1:2, 1:3, 2:3, 3:2, 3:1, etc., without limitation, so that through the two With the proportional relationship, it can be beneficial to achieve the entrainment and thus the resonance phenomenon.

Here, it should be noted that as long as the peak energy frequency and the frequency proportional relationship are determined according to the above method, a slight offset can be tolerated in actual implementation, which is within the scope of the present invention, and is not limited, and The stimulation signals having different proportional relationships may be mixed, for example, the mixing ratio relationship is 1:2, and the 1:3 stimulation signals are respectively transmitted to transmit synchronization/resonance through multiple harmonic components, and The mixed signal ratio, intensity, and type can also be implemented to change over time. Further, when implemented to provide an auditory stimulus, music can be further blended, for example, natural sounds to increase user acceptance. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no restrictions.

When resonance is reached, one of the possibilities is to increase the peak energy of the target. For example, the selected 8 Hz energy peak will increase the amplitude, and the other may be the energy in the selected frequency band. The frequency of the peak has an effect, for example, when the resonance is reached, by changing the frequency of the externally applied stimulus, for example, from 8 Hz to 8.1 Hz, to transmit the traction force between the two through the resonance, so that the energy peak The frequency changes accordingly, so that you can change it by gradually increasing or decreasing the frequency of applying the stimulus. Change the traction effect of the original natural frequency.

Further, by increasing the target peak energy or by changing the frequency of the supplied stimulation signal to achieve the frequency of pulling and affecting the peak of the energy, it is possible to obtain a change in physiology, or brain state, and/or Or the effect of the state of consciousness, for example, various physiological states of the human body such as sleep state, awake degree, degree of relaxation, meditation depth, etc., and diseases related to brain activity, such as epilepsy, migraine, etc. There is a positive effect.

There are various possibilities for the type of stimulus signal. For example, visual stimulation signals, auditory stimulation signals, or electrical stimulation signals are all feasible methods. For example, the visual stimulation signal can be a video signal with a proportional relationship of the blinking frequency. For example, it can be implemented in the form of a flash by using an LED, LCD, or other display element. The auditory stimulation signal can be an audio signal with a proportional change in the frequency of the sound. For example, an acoustic element (air conduction or bone conduction) can be utilized. And in a special embodiment, the generation of the auditory stimulation signal is achieved by two sound generation sources, that is, by using a so-called Binaural beats method, by providing a frequency difference of two auditory signals, and the frequency difference is proportional to the frequency of the target peak, and when the two auditory signals are simultaneously fed into the brain, the brain eventually produces a feeling of having the frequency difference The effect of a third auditory signal, and such two sound generating sources, there are various embodiments, for example, mirrors on both sides of the glasses structure The sounding element is arranged on the top, which is particularly suitable for the use of the bone conduction sounding element, so that the shape of the eyeglass structure will not change much; or the sounding element can also be placed on the ear worn by the eyeglass structure. Structurally, for example, two ear-wearing structures may be extended from the single-sided temple, or an ear-wearing structure may be respectively extended from the two-legged legs to be disposed on the two ears; or, it is also suitable for being implemented separately. In the case of two ear-wearing structures, it is only necessary to add separate sounding elements, which are all implementable.

Electrical stimulation also has different implementation forms. As mentioned above, the type of electrical stimulation can be changed by selecting different currents and voltages to apply waveforms. In addition, electrical stimulation can also select the location of stimulation, as described above. Transcranial electrical stimulation, transcutaneous electrical stimulation, or electrical stimulation through the tongue, etc., therefore, there are various possibilities.

Furthermore, in addition to applying a single stimulus, two or more stimuli can be applied simultaneously, for example, with the addition of visual stimuli and auditory stimuli, or simultaneous application of electrical stimuli and auditory stimuli, or to different cerebral cortical regions. Simultaneous execution of electrical stimulation is an optional execution mode. In addition, the second stimulation source can also be implemented by an external device, for example, a light source, a sound source, a mobile phone, etc., without limitation, and in this case, a plurality of The frequency of stimulation can be the same or different, there is no limit, and only need to have a frequency proportional relationship with the energy peak.

Then, after stimulation by means of resonance, the detection of the EEG signal can also be used to observe the effect of the stimulus during the stimulation period and/or after the stimulation, for example, whether the energy of the target peak is Increase, and/or its magnitude of increase, etc., and thus, the manner in which the stimulus is performed can be changed instantaneously when the effect is not achieved, for example, when the magnitude of the energy increase is less than expected, the intensity of the stimulus can be enhanced, or Increasing the time of stimulation, or changing the waveform of the stimulus signal, can help increase the stimulating effect.

Such a resonance stimulation method can accurately perform resonance stimulation on the brain wave frequency of the human body to achieve an enhanced effect, and can be adjusted immediately, which is a very efficient physiological stimulation mode.

Here, similarly, the type of the resonant physiological stimulus applied, the mode of execution, the parameter setting, and the like may be implemented to allow the user to select, for example, through the glasses. The input operation interface provided by the structure and the ear-wearing structure, for example, a button, a touch interface, a light sensor, a voice control, or the like, or an external device that communicates with the structure of the eyeglass, for example, an operation interface of a mobile phone or a wrist-worn device In addition, the physiological state change caused by the application of the resonance physiological stimulation can also be provided to the user through an information providing unit provided on the eyeglass structure or an external device communicating with the eyeglass structure, for example, Visual, auditory, tactile and other forms help users to understand their current physiological state and help brainwave resonance.

In a particular embodiment, as shown in Figures 20A-20B, it is implemented in the form of a headband disposed on the top of the head that fits over the inner ear shell or earmuff of both ears. Such an arrangement is well suited for obtaining cerebral cortex. The electroencephalogram of the parietal region, wherein, as shown in the figure, when the ear-wearing structure is implemented in the form of an in-ear housing, the coupling between the ear-wearing structure and the head-wearing structure is mainly implemented by the connecting line, and when the ear is worn When the structure is implemented in the form of an earmuff, the combination with the headgear structure is mainly implemented as a form in which the two are integrated, but it is not absolute, and other embodiments are also feasible.

In the implementation, as shown in the figure, the two electrodes 191, 192 can be placed on the head corresponding to the position of the parietal lobe of the cerebral cortex to obtain the EEG signal, or a set of the ear-wearing structure can be further disposed. The electrode is used as a reference electrode to obtain a two-channel electroencephalogram signal by using a reference combination paradigm with the two electrodes on the top of the head, or alternatively, one electrode is disposed on the headband, and one electrode is disposed on the ear-wearing structure. Obtaining an electroencephalogram of the parietal region of the cerebral cortex; alternatively, the electrode can be placed close to the cerebral cortex and temporal region, for example, the position of the headband close to the ear, or the ear-wearing structure, especially for the ear. In the form of a hood, the brain electrical signal of the cerebral cortex and temporal region can be obtained, so it can be changed according to actual needs, and there is no limit. In addition to being used to obtain EEG signals, electrodes can also be used for electrical stimulation, for example, transcranial electrical stimulation, resonance physiological stimulation, etc., or electrical stimulation electrodes can be provided using attached components, for example, extension Self-wearing structure or ear-wearing structure. Further, in order to overcome the electrode contact problem that may be caused by the hair on the head, the electrode disposed on the headband is preferably implemented to have a contact securing structure as described above, and on the other hand, the electrode can pass through Hair, on the other hand, also increases the range of contact.

Since it is in the form of a commonly used headset, it is also quite suitable for setting the sounding component (air conduction or bone conduction) in the earwear structure, so that the user audio can be naturally provided. For example, it is used to play music stored internally, for example, an mp3 sound file, or to play music from an external device, or to provide relevant physiological information, operation information, etc., for example, for physiological feedback/breathing Training, etc., or, further, can also be used to perform physiological stimulation, for example, various types of auditory stimuli described above, and since the sounding elements can be provided on both sides, it can also be implemented to utilize the above-described two-channel beat frequency method. Perform physiological stimulation.

Therefore, under this framework, not only can you get EEG signals and/or perform electrical stimulation, but also provide audio and/or perform auditory stimulation. In addition, it is a common form of earphones. The user's acceptance is quite high. Have an advantageous choice.

Such a form, as long as it is soft and comfortable, is quite suitable for use during sleep. During sleep, by detecting brain signals, you can understand brain activity, such as rapid eye movement, deep sleep, etc. In addition to providing music that helps sleep, it can also be used to determine various stimuli applied to the brain. For example, electrical stimulation, auditory stimulation, etc., and as described above, the stimulation applied to the human body has an effect of improving/inducing a sleep state, and therefore, through such a configuration, various stimulation modes described above can be naturally achieved, which is quite advantageous; Further, other physiological sensing components may be added to obtain other physiological signals. For example, a blood sensor may be used to obtain a blood physiological signal, thereby obtaining information such as heart rate, respiration, blood oxygen concentration, and the like. its He obtains physiological signals such as EO, EMG, and skin electrical signals, or adds a microphone to learn about breathing, snoring, Sleep Apnea, etc. For a more detailed understanding of sleep conditions, and in addition to being used to adjust physiological stimuli, physiological signals can also be recorded for sleep diagnostic analysis.

In addition, based on the detection of EEG signals and/or other physiological signals, it is also possible to observe physiological signals by observing physiological signals before performing electrical stimulation and/or resonance stimulation, and then whether or not to perform stimulation. Determine the basis on which and/or what stimulus to perform.

Among them, if the purpose of stimulation is to relax, improve concentration, change mental state, change/inducing sleep state, change brain state, for example, cognitive state, etc., first observe the brain wave or other physiological signals. It is helpful to know whether the physiological state is in a stable physiological state to determine whether the stimulation can be started, and/or which stimulation is to be performed, which may help to achieve the stimulation effect more quickly.

For example, by observing the brain waves, it can be known that the user is currently in a state of relaxation or tension. For example, the α wave predominance indicates that it is in a relaxed state, and the β wave predominance indicates that it is in a state of tension; on the other hand, if it is set Other physiological sensing components can be used to understand the physiological state of the user through other physiological signals. For example, the light sensor can obtain the user's heart rate, and the RSA phenomenon can be used to know the user's respiratory rate and utilize the heartbeat variation. The rate is known to the activity of the autonomic nervous system, and/or to observe the coherence between heart rate and respiration, etc., and these can represent whether the user is in a stable physiological state.

Through such prior observation, you can use the method of setting the preset conditions first, and let the stimulation be performed in the most effective way. For example, if you observe the brain wave, you can observe it for a period of time or more. Energy distribution in a specific frequency band between time segments Whether it is stable, or whether the energy peak is consistent, etc. If the heart rate is observed, it can be observed whether the heartbeat frequency, the respiratory rate, the heartbeat variability, the coherence between the heart rate and the breathing fall within a preset range.

Further, if the user is in an unsuitable physiological state, for example, a relatively unstable physiological state, the user may be placed in the physiological feedback, and/or the respiratory guidance/breathing training program as described above. After a stable and relaxed physiological state, resonance stimulation/electric stimulation is performed to make the overall procedure more effective. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no restrictions.

The decision process can be implemented to be performed on the wearable device or to transmit the physiological signal to the external device, and the external device can perform the process, for example, transmitting the physiological signal to the mobile phone through wireless transmission, and using the application in the mobile phone. To calculate and decide whether to perform the stimulus and what stimulus to perform.

Here, it should be noted that although the above description about the stimulus is based on the spectacles structure, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the spectacles structure is a type of head-mounted structure, and therefore, all of the above contents are also It is suitable for use in a head-mounted structure-based device, whether it is for obtaining physiological signals or performing stimulation, and therefore it is also within the scope of the present invention.

Another common application is as a Human Machine Interface (HMI), for example, by detecting an EEG signal to analyze a user's intention, or detecting a user's physiological changes, and then By comparing with an instruction comparison table, it is converted into an operation command to control a device combined with the human machine interface or a remote control external device. In recent years, such human-machine interface and physiological feedback have also been applied to games, for example, allowing users to train their concentration through the presentation of games.

Since the sensor according to the present invention is in the form of earwear or glasses, it is also suitable for use as a human-machine interface, and the physiological signals detected include electroencephalogram signals, eye movement signals, and myoelectric signals. In the case of signals, heart rate sequences, etc., there are several possible ways in which instructions can be generated.

For example, but not limited to, because the proportion of alpha waves in brain waves varies greatly with the movements of closed eyes and blinks, in general, when the eyes are closed, the proportion of alpha waves is greatly increased, so This can be used as a basis for generating instructions; or, the EMG can distinguish whether the muscles are contracted or not, and can be commanded by the force of the left and right teeth respectively; or, via the heart rate sequence The RSA phenomenon can obtain the respiratory rate, so the instruction can be issued by changing the breathing behavior.

In addition, when the frame unit is provided with electrodes to contact the eyes, for example, the nose bridge, the root of the mountain, the area between the eyes, and/or the upper and lower edges of the eyelids, the action of the eye can be detected and the EOG can be obtained (EOG). Moreover, it is also possible to detect the movements of the left and right eyes separately by setting a plurality of sets of electrodes, so that the instructions can be issued by the action of the eyes, for example, the blinks have left and right eyes alone and both eyes simultaneously , blink speed/frequency, open/closed eye movement, and time interval between opening and closing eyes, while eye movements move to the left or right, or counterclockwise rotation, so through the above various actions, As separate instructions, for example, two eyes can be activated at the same time to activate/deactivate the device and/or activate a certain function of the device, for example, physiological signal measurement, information provision, image/sound supply, etc.; or, right eyelid representation Enter (ENTER), the left eyelid represents cancellation (CANCEL), one eye or two eyes simultaneously and several times to represent the jump out (ESC), in addition, you can also use the time to increase open or closed eyes to give instructions; or The eyeball rotates to the right to indicate the next page, and the eyeball rotates to the left to indicate the previous page, etc.; or, different commands can be achieved by combining multiple eye movements, so it is not limited and can be different according to actual needs. definition.

However, since people usually have blinks and natural movements of eye movements, they can also cooperate with other response conditions to make the instructions more smoothly. For example, they can be transparent. A prompting unit generates a message to let the user know the execution situation between the command and the controlled device. For example, a vibration module can be disposed on the eyeglass structure to interact with the user through the vibration message. For example, the vibration message can be used to inform the user that the user has entered the state of receiving the command, and let the user know that the action of the eye can be started, and then input the command; or, the vibration message can be used as an input after the user performs the eye motion. The completed confirmation notice is implemented to notify the user that the command has been received by the vibration message, and further confirmation is required whether the execution is performed. In this case, the same action or the specified action can be performed again to confirm; alternatively, It is also possible to prompt the user through an audible or visual message and interact with the user, and in this way, the entire operation process can be made easier and more convenient.

Alternatively, motion sensing elements, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetic sensors, may be used to detect motion of the body to issue instructions along with the eye movements, such as dynamic movements of the head, for example, nodding , shaking the head, etc., or the static posture change of the head, for example, raising the head, bowing, or different tilt angles, or the movement of the hand, for example, the motion sensing element can be placed on the wrist wearing structure or the wearing structure In order to know the specific gesture, or the static posture of the hand changes, or, further, the two can cooperate with each other to obtain more combinations, so it is a suitable choice.

For example, the confirmation of the executed eye movement can be confirmed by the action of nodding or shaking the head; or, in the case where the blinking can be started/closed at the same time, the start/close command can be distinguished with the head/head, or After a certain function of the eye movement activation device is used, the function can be operated in conjunction with the gesture. For example, after the browser is activated by the eye movement, the browsing of the webpage can be performed by using the gesture, etc., and various combinations are possible.

Of course, eye movements can also be combined with other physiological signals, for example, the above EEG signals, myoelectric signals, heart rate, respiratory behavior, etc., or choose the appropriate combination from various physiological signals, cooperate with each other to execute instructions, so that not only can more instructions be combined, but also the execution of instructions can be more For the sake of ease, there is no limit.

In this way, by using the wearing glasses structure as a human-machine interface, there are many operational applications. For example, when the glasses structure is implemented as having an information providing unit, for example, as described above, the sound-emitting element can play audio. For example, an mp3 sound file or the like, when the display component can provide an image, can control the playing of music, a movie, etc. through instructions, for example, start/stop, pause, fast forward/reverse, etc., or when the glasses structure is implemented to have When the radio component is used, it can be used to control the call on and off, or when the glasses structure is equipped with a camera/camera, it can be used to control photographing, start/stop photography, zoom in/out, and the like. Herein, as described above, the information providing unit can be set in various manners, for example, can be disposed on one side of the temple and communicated with the other side of the physiological signal capturing unit via wired or wireless communication. And communication can be changed according to the actual implementation.

In particular, such an example is in line with the needs of today's common AR or VR glasses. For example, AR or VR glasses usually have sound and image providing functions, such as music stored on glasses or from external devices. Or an image, so as long as the instructions of the present invention are used to make an instruction through eye movements, the use can be made more natural and convenient.

Furthermore, it is also used to remotely control various devices in daily life, such as mobile phone photography/photography, e-book browsing, computer operations, for example, web browsing, remote control of home appliances such as television, slide control during briefing, drone Control, etc., there are quite a few application possibilities, which are very advantageous.

Here, it should be noted that the above embodiments using various physiological signals as instructions, They are not limited to being used alone, but can also be combined according to actual needs. In this way, not only can a variety of instructions be combined, but also a wider range of applications.

In summary, the present invention enables the electro-physiological signal to be obtained without changing the appearance of the frame unit by using the metal hinge structure in the common glasses for electrical conduction during the physiological signal extraction process. In addition, the present invention also proposes the possibility of obtaining an electrophysiological signal through a single temple, and also allows the common glasses without a metal portion to obtain an electrophysiological signal acquisition function simply by changing the movement of the temple. The same is achieved for the purpose of not changing the appearance of the frame unit; and the present invention further proposes a circuit system state determining mechanism that can be coupled to the eyeglass storage operation, and through such a mechanism, the power consumption can be reduced and the computing resources can be more obtained. Effective use; in addition, the present invention further provides a sampling loop required to utilize the conductive portion of the spectacles structure to achieve physiological signals, as well as minimizing changes in the original spectacles structure.

On the other hand, the present invention also proposes that by changing the specific replaceable portion of the eyeglass structure, the physiological signal capturing function of the eyeglass structure can have more possibilities, for example, increasing the sampling point, and increasing and/or The type of the physiological signal obtained is replaced, and the invention further obtains the physiological signal capturing function by combining the form of the module, so that the user can use any form of glasses without limitation. Know your own physiological condition.

In still another aspect, the present invention also proposes the use of a spectacles structure as an interface for providing physiological stimuli, and an idea of adjusting physiological stimuli according to the obtained physiological signals, which can be facilitated by the use of the wearing form, and also because The detection of physiological signals makes the effect of performing stimulation more effective and significant.
