State information acquisition system, state information acquisition apparatus, attachable terminal apparatus, and state information acquisition method

A state information acquisition apparatus comprising signal receiving and processing means which receives and processes a detection signal of a physiological state of a person or animal and a detection signal of a posture and/or action state of a person or animal located in a predetermined region,

• state information-storing means of storing state information of a predetermined physiological state of a standard person or animal,
• updating means of updating the state information storing means using the processed detection signal of a physiological state of a real person or animal,
• comparing means of comparing a processed detection signal of a physiological state of a real person or animal with the predetermined physiological state of the standard person or animal, when the state information storing means only includes the predetermined physiological state of the standard person or animal,
• comparing means of comparing a processed detection signal of a physiological state of a real person or animal with the state information of the real person or animal, when the state information storing means includes the state information of the real person or animal, and
• notifying means of notifying an abnormality in response to the comparing means.

A state information acquisition system comprising:

• a terminal which has physiological state detecting means of detecting a physiological state of a person or animal and detection signal transmitting means of transmitting a detection signal based on said detection, and is attachable to said person or animal;
• receiving means which receives a signal transmitted from said terminal and is located in a predetermined region;
• signal processing and outputting means of processing said received signal and then outputting the result;
• thereby obtaining state information indicating the state of said person or animal on the basis of said detection signal;
• means of inputting information of a standard person or animal for use as state information;
• and
• means of accumulating said state information by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal using said obtained state information and continuously accumulating said state information for each of said person or animal;
• wherein (1) when the accumulation of said state information is not yet sufficient, the data mainly based on said previously input information of the standard person or animal is used, while (2) when the accumulation of said state information is sufficient, said state information generated by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal is used.

A state information acquisition system comprising:

• position detecting means of detecting a position of a person or animal and thereby transmitting a position detection signal;
• a terminal which has posture/action detecting means of detecting the posture and/or action state of said person or animal and detection signal transmitting means of transmitting a state detection signal based on the detection of said posture and/or action state, and is attachable to said person or animal;
• signal receiving and processing means which receives and processes said position detection signal and said state detection signal, and is located in a predetermined region;
• thereby obtaining state information indicating the state of said person or animal on the basis of the result of said processing;
• means of Inputting information of a standard person or animal for use as state information;
• and
• means of accumulating said state information by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal using said obtained state information and continuously accumulating said state information for each of said person or animal;
• wherein (1) when the accumulation of said state information is not yet sufficient, the data mainly based on said previously input information of the standard person or animal is used, while (2) when the accumulation of said state information is sufficient, said state information generated by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal is used.

A state information acquisition apparatus comprising signal receiving and processing means which receives and processes a position detection signal based on detection of a position of a person or animal and a state detection signal based on detection of a posture and/or action state of said person or animal and is located in a predetermined region, wherein

• (1) the output from said signal receiving and processing means contains state information which is based on the result of said processing and indicates the state of said person or animal, or (2) said processed signal is output for the preparation of state information;
• means of inputting information of a standard person or animal for use as state information;
• and
• means of accumulating said state Information by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal using said obtained state information and continuously accumulating said state information for each of said person or animal;
• wherein (1) when the accumulation of said state information is not yet sufficient, the data mainly based on said previously input information of the standard person or animal is used, while (2) when the accumulation of said state information is sufficient, said state information generated by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal is used.

A state information acquisition system comprising:

• a terminal which has physiological state detecting means of detecting physiological state of a person or animal, posture/action detecting means of detecting a posture and/or action state of said person or animal, and detection signal transmitting means of transmitting detection signals based on the detection of (1) said physiological state and (2) said posture and/or action state, and is attached to said person or animal;
• signal receiving and processing means which receives and processes a to signal transmitted from said terminal and is located in a predetermined region, thereby obtaining state information indicating the state of said person or animal;
• storing means of storing, as structured data, said state information obtained on the basis of said detection signal and/or standard information previously prepared;
• comparing and determining means of comparing said obtained state information with said stored structured data on the basis of a predetermined reference and thereby determining whether the state of said person or animal of object of detection is normal or abnormal;
• notifying means of notifying abnormality when said state of said person or animal is determined to be abnormal;
• means of accumulating said state Information by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal using said obtained state information and continuously accumulating said state information for each of said person or animal;
• wherein (1) when the accumulation of said state information is not yet sufficient, the data mainly based on said previously input information of the standard person or animal is used, while (2) when the accumulation of said state information is sufficient, said state information generated by correcting previously input information of the standard person or animal is used.
