Abstract

A controlling method for monitoring a physiological condition of a first user. The method includes: obtaining first sensing data of the first user reported by at least one first sensing device; determining the physiological condition of the first user based on a result derived from the first sensing data and a reference range corresponding to the first sensing data; and upon determining that the physiological condition of the first user is abnormal, sending a control instruction to a second sensing device to switch the second sensing device from the first state to the second state.

Core Innovation

A controller monitors a physiological condition of a first user by obtaining first sensing data reported by at least one first sensing device and determining the physiological condition based on a result derived from the first sensing data and a reference range corresponding to the first sensing data, wherein the reference range is related to a physiological state of the first user. The physiological state relates to physiological conditions such as peace or moving, and the reference range is tied to that physiological state.

When the controller determines that the physiological condition of the first user is abnormal, the controller sends a control instruction to a second sensing device to switch the second sensing device from a first state to a second state. The control instruction instructs the second sensing device to store second sensing data to a long-term memory section and to copy the second sensing data from a short-term memory section to the long-term memory section, thereby preserving both newly stored and already buffered data across memory sections.

The second sensing device includes a video capturing sensor, with the first state defined as a short-term state and the second state defined as a long-term state. In the short-term state, the second sensing device stores the second sensing data to the short-term memory section of at least one data storage device, and in the long-term state it stores the second sensing data to the long-term memory section; the controller drives the switching based on the abnormality determination derived from the first sensing data and its physiological-state-related reference range.

Claims Coverage

The independent claims are directed to a monitoring method and a respiratory system that use a physiological-state-related reference range to detect abnormality and trigger a second sensing device to switch from short-term to long-term operation, including storing and copying sensing data across memory sections. Across these claims, there are five inventive features.

Physiological-condition monitoring with physiological-state-related reference range

A method or controller determines a physiological condition of a first user based on a result derived from first sensing data and a reference range corresponding to the first sensing data, wherein the reference range is related to a physiological state of the first user.

Abnormal-triggered switching of second sensing device from first state to second state

Upon determining that the physiological condition of the first user is abnormal, a control instruction is sent to a second sensing device to switch the second sensing device from a first state to a second state.

Long-term memory storage and copying from short-term to long-term memory upon switching

The control instruction instructs the second sensing device to store second sensing data to a long-term memory section and to copy the second sensing data from a short-term memory section to the long-term memory section.

Video capturing sensor with short-term state and long-term state

The second sensing device comprises a video capturing sensor, wherein the first state is a short-term state and the second state is a long-term state, with the short-term state storing the second sensing data to the short-term memory section and the long-term state storing the second sensing data to the long-term memory section.

Respiratory system with controller connected to sensing and memory

A respiratory system comprises a controller, at least one first sensing device, a second sensing device, and at least one data storage device including at least a long-term memory section and a short-term memory section, wherein the controller is communicatively connected to the first sensing device, the second sensing device, and the data storage device and is configured to control switching and determine physiological condition based on first sensing data and a reference range.

The claim set centers on using a physiological-state-related reference range to determine abnormality from first sensing data, and then using a control instruction to switch a second sensing device from a short-term state to a long-term state so that second sensing data is stored to a long-term memory section and copied from the short-term memory section to the long-term memory section, with the second sensing device including a video capturing sensor.
