Method for controlling acupressure force and body scan in real-time

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for controlling an acupressure force and a body scan in real-time and, more specifically, the method comprises the steps of: (a) setting a reference vertical height for each horizontal position of an acupressure part, and setting a target acupressure force within the range of the reference vertical height; (b) calculating a current measurement acupressure force by means of a user's load measurement data applied to a load cell; and (c) comparing the target acupressure force with the current measurement acupressure force so as to control the vertical height of the acupressure part. That is, the present invention presents a method for controlling a body scan in real-time, the method enabling: an inflection point of a driving current measurement value applied to a horizontal driving motor to be measured during the horizontal driving of an acupressure part in an initial massage process, so as to reflect, on an acupressure force correction value, a deviation between a vertical position of the acupressure part corresponding to the inflection point and a reference vertical position, for each horizontal position, stored in a database, thereby calculating a new target acupressure force; and the new target acupressure force to be reflected in acupressure control such that an acupressure force suitable for a user can be provided during a massage.
