图3是根据本发明示例的监视系统的结构示意图。
图4是根据本发明示例的用于对现场进行监控的监控方法的流程图。
具体实施方式
现在参照附图描述本发明的示意性示例，相同的附图标号表示相同的元件。下文描述的各示例有助于本领域技术人员透彻理解本发明，其意在示例而非限制。
图1是根据本发明示例的可穿戴设备的结构示意图。该可穿戴设备包括电源12、位置传感器14及信号收发器16。按照该示例，电源12、位置传感器14以及信号收发器16均设置在该可穿戴设备的本体10上。在此，将部件设置在该可穿戴设备的本体10上应理解为将部件设置在本体10的表面上、或将该部件设置在本体10内、或将该部件的一部分置于本体10内而另一部分可凸出于本体10或在本体10外、或该部件是通过适当的方式与该本体10连接。
位置传感器器14与信号收发器16均与电源12电性连接，其中，电源12在其被接通时向位置传感器器14与信号收发器16供电。位置传感器14用于感测穿戴可穿戴设备的穿戴者的位置，并生成位置信号。
位置传感器14例如是超宽带模块，即，UWB定位模块，而UWB定位模块可实现为UWB定位芯片。信号收发器16与位置传感器14电性连接。在某些示例中，它们被实现在同一模块中或集成在一起。位置传感器14生成的位置信号经由信号收发器16发送出去。根据本发明的示例，信号收发器16将该位置信号发送给监控装置。信号收发器16还接收来自于监控装置的指示信号。一般而言，该指示信号指明穿戴者处于其进入场地的需警告区域、高危区域还是安全区域。示例地，信号收发器16可由天线实现。
参考图1，穿戴者穿戴该可穿戴设备之后，接通电源12，使其向位置传感器14与信号收发器16供电。位置传感器14感测穿戴者的位置，并将基于感测所生成的位置信号传送给信号收发器16，信号收发器16进一步将该位置信号传送给监控装置。监控装置据此确定穿戴者的位置并判断穿戴者是处于需警告区域、高危区域还是安全区域，并依据判断结果，发送指示信号给该可穿戴装置，信号收发器16接收该指示信号。
根据本发明的示例，该可穿戴设备的本体10包括第一部分与第二 部分，且该第一部分的活动端与所述第二部分的活动端之间的相对位置能够在第一相对位置与第二相对位置之间转换。
根据本发明的一些示例，该可穿戴设备在被穿戴之后，通过第一部分的活动端及第二部分的活动端与穿戴部位之间的作用，可以将该可穿戴设备固定于穿戴部分。比如，该可穿戴设备为眼镜时，作为第一部分的一个眼镜腿的活动端与耳朵之间的作用以及作为第二部分的另一个眼镜腿的活动端与另一耳朵之间的作用，由此把眼镜固定到头部。
需要说明的是，此处的固定于穿戴部位指的是在该穿戴设备被穿戴时不会掉落。本领域技术人员应该理解到，该可穿戴设备在不需要时可从穿戴者的身上取下。下文会结合图2的示例进一步阐述第一部分与第二部分。
根据本发明的示意性示例，位置传感器14包括第一位置传感器与第二位置传感器，信号收发器16包括第一信号收发器与第二信号收发器。第一位置传感器与第二位置传感器互为备份，第一信号收发器与第二信号收发器互为备份。
在一些示例中，为电源12设置有第一开关与第二开关。第一开关接通时，位置传感器14的第一位置传感器与信号收发器16的第一信号收发器工作；第二开关接通时，位置传感器14的第二位置传感器与信号收发器16的第二信号收发器工作。该示例中，在第二位置传感器与第二收发器分别作为第一位置传感器与第一信号收发器备份的情况下，当第二位置传感器与第二收发器中的任意一个出现故障时，则通过第二开关接通来启用备份的第二位置传感器与第二信号收发器。
在另一些示例中，为电源12设置第一开关、第二开关与第三开关，第一开关接通时，位置传感器14的第一位置传感器与信号收发器16的第一信号收发器工作，第二开关接通时，位置传感器14的第二位置传感器被供电，第三开关接通时，信号收发器16的第二信号收发器工作。该示例中，在第一位置传感器故障的情况下，通过第二开关启用第二位置传感器。在第二信号收发器故障的情况下，通过第三开关启用第二收发器。该示例中，第二位置传感器与第一信号收发器电性连接，第二信号收发器与第一位置传感器电性连接。
在又一些另外的示例中，电源12接通时，第一位置传感器与第二 位置传感器同时获得电力供应，所感测的位置信号分别通过第一信号收发器与第二信号收发器传送出去，由监控装置接收。该示例中，电源12可由一个开关控制通断。
根据本发明的示例，图1所示的可穿戴设备还包括指示模块18。指示模块18与信号收发器16电性连接。在信号收发器16接收到来自监控装置的指示信号时，即进行指示。指示模块例如可以是光学指示模块(如LED灯闪等)、蜂鸣模块、音频指示模块或这些模块的任意组合。指示模块18例如用来指示穿戴者所处位置是否危险、危险程度等。例如，穿戴者处于安全区域，则指示模块18的光学指示模块(如果包括的话)呈现绿色，在需警示区域时则呈现黄色，而在高危区域时则呈现红色；在高危区域时可同时通过光学指示模块与音频指示模块或蜂鸣模块(如果有的话)一起指示。
图2是根据本发明所述的可穿戴设备的一种示例性结构。图2所示的例子中，该可穿戴设备用于穿戴在穿戴者的颈部80。该例中，该可穿戴设备包括第一部分20与第二部分22。第一部分20的活动端能够在位置20A与位置20B之间移动，第二部分22的活动端能够在位置22A与位置22B之间移动。第一部分20的活动端在位置20A处与第二部分22的活动端在位置22A处，构成了第一部分20的活动端与第二部分22的活动端的第一相对位置。第一部分20的活动端在位置20B处与第二部分22的活动端在位置22B处，构成了第一部分20的活动端与第二部分22的活动端的第二相对位置。
通过第一部分20从位置20A到位置20B、第二部分22的活动端从位置22A到位置22B，或者说通过两个活动端从第一相对位置移动到第二相对位置，使得该可穿戴设备戴在了穿戴者的颈部80。
图2的示例中，信号收发器实现为天线，且在该示例中，天线与位置传感器实现在同一模块中。参照图2，第一位置传感器与第一信号收发器(下文也称为第一天线)实现在第一模块30，第二位置传感器与第二信号收发器(下文也称为第二天线)实现在第二模块32。第一模块30设置在第一部分20，第二模块32设置在第二部分22。在图2示出的例子中，第一模块30固定于第一部分20但自第一部分20延伸出，第二模块32固定于第二部分22但自第二部分22延伸出。替代地，第一模块30可设置在第一部分20的大约中部，第二模块32可设置在 第二部分22的大约中部。需要说明的是，第一模块30与第二模块32的设置并不以本发明所示为限，可根据实际需要将它们设置在第一部分20与第二部分22的适当位置。
参照图2，该示例中，电源12设置在电源承载体(未标示)上，第一部分20的非活动端(未标示)枢接到电源承载体，第二部分22的非活动端(未标示)枢接到电源承载体。该例中，在第一部分20的活动端与第二部分22的活动端从第一相对位置(位置20A与位置22A)转换为第二相对位置(位置20B与位置22B)电源12接通，从而向第一模块30与第二模块32供电。反之，在第一部分20的活动端与第二部分22的活动端从第二相对位置转换到第一相对位置时，电源12关断，停止向第一模块30与第二模块32供电。
作为一个非常具体的示例，在图2中，可设置第一开关202a与第二开关202b。第一开关202a的接通是在第一部分20从位置20A转换到位置20B时达成而第二开关202b的接通是在第二部分22从位置22A转换到位置22B时达成，反之，在第一部分20从位置20B转换到位置20A时第一开关202a关断而在第二部分22从位置22B转换到位置22A时第二开关202b关断。作为该具体示例的替代，可仅由一个开关来控制电源12的接通与关断，该开关的“关”与“开”的动作通过所述相对位置在第一相对位置与第二相对位置之间的转换来达成。例如，所述相对位置在第一相对位置时，所述开关处于关断的状态，所述相对位置在第二相对位置时，所述开关处于打开或者说接通的状态。
根据本发明的示例，该可穿戴设备还可以包括设置光学警示模块，例如为LED灯，通过显示不同颜色来发出指示信号，例如，显示红色表明高危，黄色表明警告，而绿色指明安全。如需要，光学警示模块可形成为灯闪的方式。在图2示意的例子中，光学警示模块181设置在电源承载体上。示例地，当信号收发器接收到的来自监控装置的指示信号表明穿戴者处于安全区域时，光学警示模块181呈现绿色；当信号收发器接收到的来自监控装置的指示信号表明穿戴者处于需警告区域时，光学警示模块181呈现黄色；当信号收发器接收到的来自监控装置的指示信号表明穿戴者处于高危区域时，光学警示模块181呈现红色。
图2的示例中，该可穿戴设备还包括设置在第一部分20和/或第二 部分22的用于指示该电源12电量的指示模块，例如设置在第一部分和/或第二部分22的端部。可选地，在该可穿戴设备的第一部分20和/或第二部分22设置音频指示模块182，使得可以语音方式发出警示信号等。示例地，还可设置蜂鸣模块。在图2所示的具体例子中，分别在第一部分20与第二部分22的活动端设置用于指示电源12电量的指示模块120及音频指示模块182。
另外，作为替代，在当前图2中，用于指示电源12电量的指示模块可直接设置在电池附近，或在该可穿戴设备包括承载电池的承载体的情况下设置在电池承载体上，或者在可能的情况下，直接设置在电池外壳上等。类似地，音频指示模块也可根据需要设置在本体的其它位置。
根据本发明的一些示例，该可穿戴设备中，电源12可设置在第一部分20或第二部分22上。电源12在第一开关接通时向第一模块30供电，电源12在第二开关接通时向第二模块32供电。示例而非限制地，第一开关与第二开关的接通可以设置为按钮形式，由穿戴者手动操作。
根据本发明的又一些示例，该可穿戴设备中，第一部分20与第二部分22通过其非活动端枢接。电源12设置在第一部分20与第二部分22的枢接连接处，具体而言，第一开关设置在该枢接连接处靠近第一部分20的地方而第二开关设置在该枢接连接处靠近第二部分22的地方。与图2所示的例子类似，该示例中，第一开关的接通是在第一部分20从位置20A转换到位置20B时达成而第二开关的接通是在第二部分22从位置22A转换到位置22B时达成，反之，在第一部分20从位置20B转换到位置20A时第一开关关断而在第二部分22从位置22B转换到位置22A时第二开关关断。
根据本发明的一些示例中，还可在可穿戴设备的本体上设置报警按钮，该报警按钮与电源12连接以获得电力。可选地，该报警按钮与信号收发器电性连接，以便报警信号可由该信号收发器传送给监控装置。可选地，该报警按钮与音频指示模块电性连接，以便报警信号可经由该音频指示模块发出音频指示。该报警按钮有助于穿戴者在紧急或危险情况下发出求助信号。
如上所描述的各个示例中，各模块、部件都由电源12供电。例如， 第一模块30、设置在第一部分20端部的音频指示模块、指示该电源12电量的指示模块等都由电源12通过第一开关接通时供电，相应地，第二模块32、设置在第二部分22端部的音频指示模块、指示该电源12电量的指示模块等都由电源12通过第二开关接通时供电。光学警示模块可设置成在电源12由第一开关或第二开关接通时供电。
作为替代，根据本发明的各示例，电源12可以包括第一电源与第二电源。第一电源向第一位置传感器、第一信号收发器供电，第二电源向第二位置传感器、第二信号收发器供电。进一步，在第一部分与第二部分分别设有电量指示模块与音频指示模块的情况下，可由第一电源向设置在第一部分的电量指示模块与音频指示模块供电，可由第二电源向设置在第二部分的电量指示模块与音频指示模块供电。举例来说，第一电源向设置在第一部分的第一位置传感器、第一信号收发器、第一电量指示模块与音频指示模块供电，且第一电源可以通过为其设置的第一开关来控制。第一开关可以按钮控制通断，也可以是如上文结合的借由第一部分活动端位置的改变来控制通断。第二电源向设置在第二部分的第二位置传感器、第二信号收发器、第二电量指示模块与音频指示模块供电。第二开关可以按钮控制通断，也可以是如上文结合的借由第二部分活动端位置的改变来控制通断。该例中，第一电源与第二电源设置的位置可以是如上文所描述的示例中那样，设置在电源承载体上、或分别设置在第一部分与第二部分的适当位置、或设置在第一部分与第二部分的枢接处等。在该示例中，如果第一电源与第二电源中一个电力不足，另一个电源还可提供电力给与之电性连接的位置传感器与信号收发器，使它们还可处于工作状态。
示例地，当有人员要进入有高速工作的机电设备、机器人等或其它对进入人员有一定危险性的设备的场地时，可要求其穿戴根据本发明示例的可穿戴设备，例如图2所示的可穿戴设备。穿戴了该可穿戴设备的进入人员通过操作第一部分20与第二部分22使其活动端的位置改变，再将该设备固定于穿戴人员颈部的同时，也开通了电源，该可穿戴设备的第一模块、第二模块及其它各模块由已接通的电源12供电，从而进入工作状态。第一模块30与第二模块32感测穿戴人员在该场地内的移动位置，并将感测信号以无线传送的方式发送给监控装置，监控装置例如设置在监控室。针对该场地，已在监控装置预设了与危险区域有关的参数，例如已设置好哪块区域是安全区域、哪块是 需警告区域、哪块是高危区域等，其中，可通过横向、纵向位置参数来设置区域。监控装置接收到来自第一模块与第二模块30与32的感测信号后，确定穿戴人员的位置。如该穿戴人员处于安全区域，监控装置发送安全信号给该可穿戴设备，这时该可穿戴设备的光学指示模块呈现绿色。可替代地，监控装置也可设置成在该穿戴人员处于安全区域时不发送信号，而光学指示模块设置成在该情况下呈现绿色。在该穿戴人员处于需警告区域时，监控装置发送相应的警示信号给该可穿戴设备，设置于第一、第二模块的信号收发器接收该警示信号并将其传送给光学指示模块，光学模块据此呈现黄色。在该穿戴人员处于高危区域时，发送指示处于高危区域的警示信号给该可穿戴设备，设置于第一、第二模块的信号收发器接收该信号并将其传送给光学指示模块，光学指示模块据此呈现红色。在该示例中，在接收到处于高危区域的警示信号时，信号收发器同时将该信号发送给音频指示模块，使其以音频方式警示穿戴人员处于危险区域。当第一模块30或第二模块32中任意一个模块出现故障时，因另外一个还在工作，因此并不影响该可穿戴设备传送穿戴者的位置给监控装置以及接收来自监控装置的指示信号。
如果穿戴的是如上文所提到的具有第一电源与第二电源的可穿戴设备，则即使其中一个电源没有了电力或故障，另一电源还可提供电力给相应部件、模块使该可穿戴设备处于工作状态。
图3是根据本发明示例的监视系统的结构示意图。该监视系统包括通信连接的可穿戴设备50与监控装置60。其中，该可穿戴设备50是如上文所描述的可穿戴设备50中的任意一种。在该监控装置60中预设有与区域有关的参数。区域在本文中指的是要监视的场地，该场地通常有高速工作的机电设备、机器人等或其它对进入人员有一定危险性的设备。在监控装置60中，场地中的区域可被划分为安全区域、需警告区域以及高危区域，可通过各区域在场地中的横向、纵向位置参数来设定区域。
监控装置60接收可穿戴设备50发送的表征穿戴者位置的感测信号，由此确定该穿戴者所在的位置是在安全区域、需警告区域还是高危区域。在可穿戴设备50不包括用于发出警示等指示信号的指示模块的情况下，监控装置60可以通过自身发出警示信号，例如显示或语音指示等。在监控室的工作人员则可立即人为地向穿戴者发出警示。
在可穿戴设备50包括指示模块的情况下，监控装置60将指示信号发送给该可穿戴设备50，由其示出。例如，该穿戴者处于安全区域，监控装置60发送穿戴者处于安全区域的信号给可穿戴设备50，这时该可穿戴设备的光学指示模块呈现绿色。在穿戴者处于需警告区域时，监控装置发送穿戴者处于需警告区域的警示信号给可穿戴设备50，设置于可穿戴设备50的光学指示模块据此呈现黄色。在该穿戴者处于高危区域时，发送指示穿戴者处于高危区域的警示信号给可穿戴设备50，光学指示模块据此呈现红色。在该穿戴者接收到处于高危区域的警示信号时，信号收发器同时将该信号发送给音频指示模块(如果可穿戴设备50包括音频指示模块的话)，使其以音频方式警示穿戴人员处于危险区域。
根据本发明，还提供用于对现场进行监控的监控方法。图4是该方法的流程图。根据本发明的示例，在步骤400，提供可穿戴设备给进入人员穿戴，该可穿戴设备被设置成包括位置传感器与信号收发器。在步骤402，在进入人员穿戴好该可穿戴设备使其处于工作状态之后，该可穿戴设备感测进入人员的位置信息并将其发送给监控装置。在步骤404，监控装置依据接收的位置信息确认进入人员处于安全区域、需警告区域还是高危区域。在确定进入人员处于安全区域时，进入步骤406，发送处于安全区域的指示信号给可穿戴设备。在确定进入人员处于需警告区域时，进入步骤408，发送处于需警告区域的指示信号给可穿戴设备。在确定进入人员处于高危区域时，进入步骤410，发送处于高危区域的指示信号给可穿戴设备。在步骤412，可穿戴设备按照所接收的指示信号来示意进入人员当前处于何种区域。
在图4的示例中，该可穿戴设备可以是结合图1或图2描述的可穿戴设备。另外，图4所示例的方法可以执行在如图3所示的监控系统中。
穿戴了该可穿戴设备的进入人员在进入需监控场地时，即可将其在该场地内的位置实时地传送到监控装置。监控装置根据穿戴者的位置确定其所处的区域是安全、需要警示还是高危区域。在处于需要警示或高危区域的情况下，通过光学方式和/或音频方式给予警示，且在高危时，优选通过光学方式与音频方式两者来给予警示。另外，尽管上文未曾详细描述，但是根据本发明的各示例，当确定进入人员(即，穿戴者)进入到高危区域时，监控装置还可被配置成控制在该场地内 高速运作的机电设备或机器人或其它对进入人员构成威胁的设备停止工作。换言之，监控装置还可被配置成在进入人员(即，穿戴者)进入到高危区域时，采取一定的措施以有利于该进入人员的安全，具体措施可根据被监测场地的实际环境来确定。
在此描述的具体示例中，该可穿戴设备被结合图2描述为穿戴在颈部，但实际应用中，该可穿戴装置可以是眼镜，还可以是佩戴在手腕或脚腕部的可穿戴设备。在该可穿戴装置为眼镜的情况下，第一部分例如是一只眼镜腿而第二部分是另一是眼镜腿，而与眼镜腿相连的部分例如相当于电池承载体。
尽管以示例的方式描述了根据本发明原理的多个示例或实施方式，但本领域技术人员在不背离本发明原理和精神的情况下，可使这些示例中的一个或多个彼此结合使用。
