본 발명은 눈과 뇌의 교차신경을 이용한 치매 개선 장치에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 치매와 같은 퇴행성 뇌 질환의 진행이 예상되거나 퇴행성 뇌질환의 치료를 요하는 사용자에게 시각 및 청각 생리학 기반 및 눈과 뇌의 교차 신경 원리를 이용하여 좌뇌와 우뇌 중 손상되지 않은 뇌를 자극하고 인지 기능을 촉진시켜 손상되지 않은 뇌가 손상된 뇌의 역할을 수행할 수 있게 해 치매를 개선하거나 치매의 경도를 진단할 수 있는 눈과 뇌의 교차신경을 이용한 치매 개선 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an apparatus for improving dementia using cross nerves between the eye and the brain, and more particularly, to a user who is expected to progress of a degenerative brain disease such as dementia or requires treatment for a degenerative brain disease based on visual and auditory physiology and an eye By using the principle of intersectional nerves between the left and right brains, stimulating the undamaged brain of the left and right brains and promoting cognitive function, so that the undamaged brain can perform the role of the damaged brain, improving dementia or diagnosing the severity of dementia. It relates to a device for improving dementia using cross nerves between the eye and the brain.
치매란 그 자체가 하나의 질환을 의미하는 것이 아닌 여러가지 원인에 의한 뇌 손상에 의해 기억력을 위시한 여러 인지기능의 장애가 생겨 예전 수준의 일상생활을 유지할 수 없는 상태를 의미한다. 이와 같은 치매는 정상적으로 성숙한 뇌가 후천적인 외상이나 질병 등 외인에 의하여 손상 또는 파괴되어 전반적으로 지능, 학습, 언어 등의 인지기능과 고등 정신 기능이 떨어지는 복합적인 증상을 보인다.Dementia is not a disease in itself, but a condition in which various cognitive functions, including memory, are impaired due to brain damage caused by various causes, making it impossible to maintain daily life at the previous level. Such dementia shows complex symptoms in which the normally mature brain is damaged or destroyed by external factors such as acquired trauma or disease, and overall cognitive functions such as intelligence, learning, language, and higher mental functions are deteriorated.
치매의 원인 질환으로는 80-90가지가 알려져 있으며, 대표적으로 임상적 증상에 따라서 알츠하이머, 파킨슨 치매, 혈관성 치매, 전두측두엽치매 및 루이소체 치매로 분류된다.About 80 to 90 diseases are known to cause dementia, and are typically classified into Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's dementia, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, and Lewy body dementia according to clinical symptoms.
한편, 우뇌와 좌뇌는 각기 독특한 특징을 발휘하지만, 우리가 사물 및 사실을 인식하고 생각할 때 절묘한 콤비네이션 이루고, 한쪽 뇌만을 사용하는 경우 우뇌와 좌뇌의 기능을 동시에 발휘하는 특성을 가진다.On the other hand, the right brain and the left brain each exhibit unique characteristics, but when we recognize and think about things and facts, we achieve an exquisite combination, and when we use only one brain, we have the characteristics of simultaneously exerting the functions of the right and left brain.
예를 들면, 좌뇌의 기능이 떨어지면 우뇌가 좌뇌의 역할을 보충하게 되는데 즉, 좌뇌의 기능을 영구적으로 할 수 없는 뇌질환 환자를 지속적 학습을 통하여 우뇌가 좌뇌의 기능을 동시에 수행하게 할 수 있다.For example, when the function of the left brain decreases, the right brain supplements the role of the left brain. That is, a patient with a brain disease who cannot permanently function the left brain can have the right brain simultaneously perform the functions of the left brain through continuous learning.
대한민국 등록특허 제1828954호는 치매의 개선을 위해 인간의 청각을 자극하여 두뇌의 기능 활성화를 통한 치매 증상 등의 개선한다. 그러나 종래에는 단순히 청각을 통해 뇌를 자극하는 것은 가능하였지만 손상된 뇌를 대상으로 활성화하기 위한 것이기 때문에 증상에 대한 개선효과가 미미한 문제가 있다.Korean Registered Patent No. 1828954 improves symptoms of dementia through activation of brain functions by stimulating human hearing to improve dementia. However, in the prior art, it was possible to simply stimulate the brain through hearing, but there is a problem in that the improvement effect on symptoms is insignificant because it is for activating the damaged brain.

도 1은 본 발명의 실시예1에 따른 눈과 뇌의 교차신경을 이용한 치매 개선 장치(10)를 예시한 개략도이다.1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an apparatus 10 for improving dementia using cross nerves of the eye and the brain according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
실시예1은 치매와 같은 퇴행성 뇌 질환의 진행이 예상되거나 퇴행성 뇌질환의 치료를 요하는 사용자에게 시각 생리학 기반 및 눈과 뇌의 교차 신경 원리를 이용하여 좌뇌와 우뇌 중 손상되지 않은 뇌를 자극하고 인지 기능을 촉진시켜 손상되지 않은 뇌가 손상된 뇌의 역할을 수행할 수 있게 하여 치매를 개선하는 기술에 관한 것이다.Example 1 stimulates the undamaged left and right brains of the left brain and the right brain using visual physiology-based and eye-brain cross-neuron principles for users who are expected to develop degenerative brain diseases such as dementia or who require treatment for degenerative brain diseases, It relates to a technique for improving dementia by promoting cognitive function so that the undamaged brain can perform the role of the damaged brain.
참고로, 망막에서 나온 신경섬유들이 형성하는 신경으로 두 시신경은 부분적으로 교차되고 후두엽의 시각피질로 향한다. 이로 인해, 좌안은 우뇌와 연결되고, 우안은 좌뇌와 연결된다. 눈과 뇌는 교차신경을 통해 서로 반대하는 방향으로 연결되기 때문에 좌안을 통해 보고 생각하는 것은 우뇌를 자극시키게 되고, 우안을 통해 보고 생각하는 것은 좌뇌를 자극시키게 되는데, 실시예1은 이러한 눈과 뇌의 교차 신경을 통해 손상되지 않은 뇌를 자극시켜 더욱 활성화 시킴으로써 손상된 뇌의 역할도 수행할 수 있게 훈련하는 것이 가능하다 For reference, it is a nerve formed by nerve fibers from the retina, and the two optic nerves are partially crossed and directed to the visual cortex of the occipital lobe. Due to this, the left eye is connected to the right brain, and the right eye is connected to the left brain. Since the eyes and brain are connected in opposite directions through cross nerves, seeing and thinking through the left eye stimulates the right brain, and seeing and thinking through the right eye stimulates the left brain. It is possible to train the damaged brain to perform its role by stimulating and activating the undamaged brain through the cross nerves of the brain.
실시예1의 치매 개선 장치(10)는 헤드 마운트 디스플레이(110)(Head mounted display)로 구현되는 것을 예를 들어 설명한다. 그러나 치매 개선 장치(10)는 헤드 마운트 디스플레이(110) 외에 사용자의 양 쪽 눈 각각에 콘텐츠를 출력시킬 수 있는 형태의 장치면 어떠한 형태로 구현되어도 무방하다.The dementia amelioration device 10 of Embodiment 1 will be described as being implemented as a head mounted display 110 as an example. However, the dementia amelioration device 10 may be implemented in any form other than the head mounted display 110 as long as it is a device capable of outputting content to both eyes of the user.
치매 개선 장치(10)는 디스플레이(110), 메모리(120) 및 중앙처리장치(130)를 포함한다.The dementia amelioration device 10 includes a display 110 , a memory 120 and a central processing unit 130 .
디스플레이(110)는 테라피 애플리케이션(131)에 의해 제공되는 테라피 콘텐츠(L 또는 R)을 사용자가 볼 수 있도록 출력시키는 것이다. The display 110 outputs the therapy contents (L or R) provided by the therapy application 131 so that the user can see them.
디스플레이(110)는 사용자의 좌안에 대응하는 화면(L)과 우안에 대응하는 화면(R)을 제공한다. 즉, 디스플레이(110)는 2개로 구획되고, 좌안에 대응하는 화면(L)과 우안에 대응하는 화면(R) 각각에 다른 콘텐츠를 출력시킬 수 있다.The display 110 provides a screen L corresponding to the user's left eye and a screen R corresponding to the right eye of the user. That is, the display 110 is divided into two, and different contents can be output to each of the screen L corresponding to the left eye and the screen R corresponding to the right eye.
디스플레이(110)는 치매 개선 장치(10), 즉 헤드마운트디스플레이(110)에 일체로 구비될 수도 있고, 탈부착 부재를 통해 별도로 장착될 수도 있다. 디스플레이(110)가 탈부착 부재를 통해 치매 개선 장치(10)에 별도로 장착될 경우, 디스플레이(110)는 스마트폰, 태블릿 PC 등의 단말로 구현될 수도 있다. 디스플레이(110)가 스마트폰, 태블릿 PC 등의 단말로 구현될 경우에도 디스플레이(110)는 2개로 구획되고, 좌안에 대응하는 화면과 우안에 대응하는 화면 각각에 다른 콘텐츠를 출력시킬 수 있다.The display 110 may be provided integrally with the dementia amelioration device 10, that is, the head mounted display 110, or may be separately mounted through a detachable member. When the display 110 is separately mounted on the dementia amelioration device 10 through a detachable member, the display 110 may be implemented as a terminal such as a smart phone or a tablet PC. Even when the display 110 is implemented as a terminal such as a smart phone or a tablet PC, the display 110 is partitioned into two, and different contents can be output to each of a screen corresponding to the left eye and a screen corresponding to the right eye.
메모리(120)는 치매 개선 장치(10)에 구비된 저장매체이다. 메모리(120)에는 좌뇌의 기능과 관련된 테라피 콘텐츠(L)와 우뇌의 기능과 관련된 테라피 콘텐츠(R)가 저장된다.The memory 120 is a storage medium provided in the dementia amelioration device 10 . The memory 120 stores therapy contents (L) related to left-brain functions and therapy contents (R) related to right-brain functions.
참고로, 인간의 뇌는 좌뇌와 우뇌로 구분되며 좌뇌와 우뇌는 각각 다른 역할을 한다. 설명의 편의를 위해 도 2를 참조하면, 좌뇌는 분석 사고 논리, 언어 구사능력, 수학적 조작능력, 문자나 숫자 기호의 이해, 읽기 쓰기 능력, 이성적 능력 기능을 담당한다. 우뇌는 이미지 뇌, 창조적, 자발적, 감성적, 추상적, 예술적 능력, 공간 인식 능력, 직관적인 판단력 기능을 담당한다.For reference, the human brain is divided into a left brain and a right brain, and the left brain and the right brain play different roles. Referring to FIG. 2 for convenience of explanation, the left hemisphere is in charge of analytical thinking logic, language command, mathematical manipulation, understanding of letters and numbers, reading and writing, and rational abilities. The right brain is in charge of image brain, creative, spontaneous, emotional, abstract, artistic ability, spatial recognition ability, and intuitive judgment function.
메모리(120)에 저장된 좌뇌의 기능과 관련된 테라피 콘텐츠(L)는 분석 사고 논리, 언어 구사능력, 수학적 조작능력, 문자나 숫자 기호의 이해, 읽기 쓰기 능력, 이성적 능력에 대응하는 콘텐츠로, 예를 들면, 수학 계산 문제 일 수 있다.The therapy content (L) related to the function of the left brain stored in the memory 120 is content corresponding to analytical thinking logic, language command ability, mathematical manipulation ability, understanding of letters and numbers, reading and writing ability, and rational ability. For example, For example, it could be a mathematical calculation problem.
메모리(120)에 저장된 우뇌 기능과 관련된 테라피 콘텐츠(R)는 이미지 뇌, 창조적, 자발적, 감성적, 추상적, 예술적 능력, 공간 인식 능력, 직관적인 판단력에 대응하는 콘텐츠로, 예를 들면, 동물과 같은 객체를 이미지화한 콘텐츠일 수 있다,The therapy content (R) related to the right brain function stored in the memory 120 is content corresponding to image brain, creative, spontaneous, emotional, abstract, artistic ability, spatial recognition ability, and intuitive judgment. It may be content in which an object is imaged,
좌뇌의 기능과 관련된 테라피 콘텐츠(L)와 우뇌의 기능과 관련된 테라피 콘텐츠(R)는 2차원적인 화면으로 구현될 수도 있고, AR(Augmented Reality) 또는 VR(Virtual Reality)과 같은 3차원적인 화면으로 구현될 수도 있다.The therapy contents (L) related to left-brain functions and the therapy contents (R) related to right-brain functions may be implemented as a two-dimensional screen or as a three-dimensional screen such as AR (Augmented Reality) or VR (Virtual Reality). may be implemented.
중앙처리장치(130)는 테라피 애플리케이션(131)을 통해 눈과 뇌의 교차 신경 원리를 이용하여 좌뇌가 손상(예를 들면, 치매)된 경우 우뇌를 자극시키기 위해 테라피 콘텐츠(L)를 화면(L)에 출력시키고, 우뇌가 손상된 경우 좌뇌를 자극시키기 위해 테라피 콘텐츠(R)를 화면(R)에 출력시킨다.The central processing unit 130 displays the therapy content L on the screen (L) through the therapy application 131 to stimulate the right brain when the left brain is damaged (eg, dementia) using the principle of crossing nerves between the eyes and the brain. ), and if the right brain is damaged, the therapy contents (R) are output on the screen (R) to stimulate the left brain.
예컨대, 테라피 콘텐츠(L)는 좌뇌의 기능과 연관되기 때문에 좌뇌와 연결된 우안, 즉, 화면(R)에 출력됐을 때 사용자가 이를 인지할 수 있다. 그러나 좌뇌가 손상된 경우 테라피 콘텐츠(L)를 우안에 대응하는 화면(R)에 출력시켜도 사용자가 인지하지 못하기 때문에 테라피 콘텐츠(L)를 좌안에 대응하는 화면(L)에 출력시킨다. 이때, 테라피 콘텐츠(L)는 죄뇌의 기능과 연관된 콘텐츠이지만 우뇌의 기능과 연결된 좌안(즉, 화면(L)에 출력되기 되기 때문에 우뇌가 자극을 받게 된다. 그리고 이러한 자극이 지속되면 우뇌가 활성화되어 좌뇌의 역할을 수행할 수 있게 된다.For example, since the therapy content (L) is related to the function of the left brain, the user can recognize it when it is output to the right eye connected to the left brain, that is, the screen (R). However, when the left brain is damaged, even if the therapy contents (L) are output on the screen (R) corresponding to the right eye, the user does not recognize the therapy contents (L), so the therapy contents (L) are output on the screen (L) corresponding to the left eye. At this time, the therapy content (L) is content related to the function of the sin brain, but the right brain is stimulated because it is output to the left eye (ie, the screen L) connected to the function of the right brain. And if this stimulation continues, the right brain is activated It can perform the role of the left brain.
따라서, 이와 같이 중앙처리장치(130)가 손상되지 않은 뇌를 자극시키는 이유는 손상되지 않은 뇌를 자극하여 인지 기능을 촉진시킴으로써 손상되지 않은 뇌가 손상된 뇌의 역할을 수행할 수 있게 하기 위함이다.Therefore, the reason why the central processing unit 130 stimulates the undamaged brain is to stimulate the undamaged brain to promote cognitive function so that the undamaged brain can perform the role of the damaged brain.
중앙처리장치(130)는 프로그래밍된 테라피 애플리케이션(131)을 통해 테라피 콘텐츠(L, R)를 좌안에 대응하는 화면(L) 및 우안에 대응하는 화면(R)으로 출력시킬 수 있다.The central processing unit 130 may output the therapy contents L and R to a screen L corresponding to the left eye and a screen R corresponding to the right eye through the programmed therapy application 131 .

도 5는 본 발명의 실시예2에 따른 치매 개선 장치(20)를 나타낸 블록도이다.5 is a block diagram showing an apparatus 20 for improving dementia according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
실시예2의 치매 개선 장치(20)는 디스플레이(210), 메모리(220), 중앙처리장치(230), 스피커(250)(스피커(L) 및 스피커(R))를 포함한다. 실시예2의 디스플레이(210), 메모리(220), 중앙처리장치(230)는 실시예1의 디스플레이(110), 메모리(120), 중앙처리장치(130)와 동일하므로 중복된 설명을 생략하고 스피커(L) 및 스피커(R)에 대해서 설명한다.The dementia amelioration apparatus 20 of the second embodiment includes a display 210, a memory 220, a central processing unit 230, and a speaker 250 (speaker L and speaker R). Since the display 210, memory 220, and central processing unit 230 of Example 2 are the same as the display 110, memory 120, and CPU 130 of Example 1, duplicate descriptions are omitted. The speaker L and the speaker R are described.
도 5에서 보듯, 치매 개선 장치(20)는 스피커(250)(스피커(L) 및 스피커(R))를 더 포함한다.As shown in FIG. 5 , the dementia amelioration device 20 further includes speakers 250 (speakers L and R).
스피커(250)(스피커(L) 및 스피커(R))는 치매 개선 장치(20)에 연결되게 설치되고, 중앙처리장치(230)에 설치된 테라피 애플리케이션(231)에 의해 제어되어 음원을 출력한다.The speakers 250 (speakers L and R) are installed to be connected to the dementia treatment device 20 and are controlled by the therapy application 231 installed in the central processing unit 230 to output a sound source.

도 5 및 도 6에서 보듯, 중앙처리장치(230)의 테라피 애플리케이션(231)은 우측뇌가 손상되어 좌측 뇌를 활성화 시키기 위해 우뇌의 기능과 관련된 동물의 이미지(예를 들면, 까마귀 이미지)에 대한 테라피 콘텐츠(R)을 좌뇌와 연결되고 우안에 대응하는 화면(R)에 출력할 때, 테라피 콘텐츠(R)과 관련된 음원 즉, 까마귀 울음소리에 대한 음원을 좌뇌와 동일한 방향(자극시키기 위한 뇌)의 귀에 위치된 스피커(L)에 출력시킨다. 여기서 스피커(L)에 출력되는 음원은 테라피 콘텐츠(R)과 직접적으로 연관되지 않고 테라피 콘텐츠(R)의 정답을 유추할 수 있는 소리일 수 있다.As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the therapy application 231 of the central processing unit 230 is applied to an image of an animal related to the function of the right brain (eg, a crow image) in order to activate the left brain when the right brain is damaged. When the therapy content (R) is connected to the left brain and displayed on the screen (R) corresponding to the right eye, the sound source related to the therapy content (R), that is, the sound source for the cry of a crow, is directed in the same direction as the left brain (brain for stimulation) It is output to the speaker (L) located in the ear of. Here, the sound source output to the speaker L may not be directly related to the therapy content R, but may be a sound capable of inferring the correct answer of the therapy content R.
