The emergency determination device includes a sensor configured to detect a vital sign of a person and a hand gesture of the person within a predetermined range, and a determiner configured to analyze the vital sign recognized by the sensor, to additionally analyze the hand gesture based on a result obtained by analyzing the vital sign, and to determine whether the emergency occurs, wherein the determiner analyzes the vital sign and determines whether the emergency occurs after the sensor detects a wake-up behavior. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An emergency determination device for determining whether an emergency occurs, comprising: a sensor configured to detect a vital sign of a person and a hand gesture of the person within a predetermined range; and a determiner configured to analyze the vital sign recognized by the sensor, to additionally analyze the hand gesture based on a result obtained by analyzing the vital sign, and to determine whether the emergency occurs, wherein the determiner analyzes the vital sign and determines whether the emergency occurs after the sensor detects a wake-up behavior; wherein the wake-up behavior is a behavior for enabling the emergency determination device; and wherein, when the sensor detects a sleep behavior, the determiner determines that the emergency does not occur in the person and stops analyzing the vital sign of the person and analyzing the hand gesture. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The emergency determination device of claim 1, wherein the wake-up behavior includes at least one of the hand gesture of the person, a body gesture of the person, voice, or a specific word. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The emergency determination device of claim 1, wherein the sensor detects the vital sign after detecting the wake-up behavior and detecting collapse of the person. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The emergency determination device of claim 1, wherein, when determining that a mysterious symptom is present in a body of the person as a result obtained by analyzing the vital sign detected by the sensor, the determiner analyzes the hand gesture detected by the sensor and determines whether the emergency occurs. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The emergency determination device of claim 4, wherein the sensor detects the hand gesture within a first detection range and a second detection range; wherein, when the sensor detects the hand gesture of the person within the first detection range a preset number of times or more, the determiner determines that the emergency occurs; and wherein the first detection range is narrower than the second detection range. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The emergency determination device of claim 5, wherein, when the sensor detects that a hand of the person moves to the first detection range from the second detection range within a predetermined time a preset number of times or more, the determiner determines that the emergency occurs. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The emergency determination device of claim 1, wherein the determiner includes a storage configured to store various pieces of information on a symptom generated in a body of the person; and wherein the pieces of information is classified into information on a mysterious symptom and information on the emergency. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The emergency determination device of claim 7, wherein, when the vital sign measured by the sensor is matched with the information on the mysterious symptom, the determiner detects the hand gesture and determines whether the emergency occurs. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The emergency determination device of claim 8, wherein, when the sensor does not detect the hand gesture matched with a setting condition for a first time, the sensor repeatedly measures the vital sign. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The emergency determination device of claim 9, wherein, when the vital sign that is repeatedly measured is continuously matched with the information on the mysterious symptom and the sensor does not detect the hand gesture matched with the setting condition for a second time, the determiner determines that the emergency occurs; and wherein the second time is longer than the first time. ### Claim 11 (depends on 7) The emergency determination device of claim 7, wherein, when the vital sign measured by the sensor is matched with the information on the emergency, even if the hand gesture is not detected, the determiner determines that the emergency occurs. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The emergency determination device of claim 1, further comprising: a communicator configured to transmit a message indicating that the emergency occurs to a predetermined emergency center or urgent center when determining that the emergency occurs. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The emergency determination device of claim 12, wherein, after the determiner determines that the emergency occurs, the communicator transmits information on the vital sign of the person to the predetermined emergency center or the urgent center in real time. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The emergency determination device of claim 1, further comprising: an emergency button configured to indicate that the emergency occurs to the outside, wherein the emergency button is enabled when the determiner determines that a mysterious symptom is generated in the person.
