According to an embodiment, the task performing unit 550 may be a user according to the data measured by the first measuring unit 510, the second measuring unit 530, and the third measuring unit 530 of the mask 500. Can infer whether he is in a good posture or a bad posture. Such inference may be possible, for example, because the accumulation of data can confirm what the user's posture is when the measurement data (especially breathing data) exhibit a particular pattern. Such data accumulation may be performed by the information processor 210 of the management system 200.

If the user's posture deviates from the standard by a certain degree or more, the task performing unit 550 may give the user a guide voice requesting the user for posture correction.

9. Providing customized advertisements

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the mask 500 may enable the user to be provided with advertisements that are useful or suitable for him.

According to an embodiment, the data and / or the context recognizer 540 measured by the first measurer 510, the second measurer 530, and the third measurer 530 of the mask 500 may be used. According to the recognized context, the task executor 550 may infer a situation in which the user is present or an environment, an object, a person, an event, or the like in which the user feels good or bad. Such inference may be possible, for example, because it is possible to confirm through the accumulation of data what the emotion of the user is when the measurement data exhibits a particular pattern. Such data accumulation may be performed by the information processor 210 of the management system 200.

Therefore, according to the reasoning as described above, the following tasks may be performed by the task performing unit 550.

Providing advertisements (e.g., voice ads) that are tailored to the user's situation (where the user's situation can be inferred based on user's context or measurement data about the user's exhalation).

Providing advertisements according to the user's emotions (e.g., voice ads) (where advertisements may be provided with respect to what the user feels good about).
