Description

How the massage system works

The present invention relates to a massage system, and particularly refers to a method of operation of the massage system.

The current massage system uses a preset massage mode to perform massage services on the person being massaged, so that the person being massaged can get a feeling of relaxation. The preset massage mode or fixed massage mechanism are all massaged in the preset massage mode, but the body shape of the person being massaged is very different. Therefore, the preset massage mode or fixed massage mechanism cannot satisfy each person being massaged. By.

For example, the position of the acupuncture points will be different for a person being massaged with a height of 180 cm or more and a person being massaged with a height of 150 cm or less. The current massage system usually provides a massage mechanism with a larger range of stimulation to meet various body shapes. However, a large range of stimuli means that the massage organization will not continue to provide appropriate massage services for the acupuncture points that the massaged person needs to relax, resulting in many ineffective massages (stimuli).

In addition, during the massage process, the current massage system does not track the feelings of the person being massaged. Therefore, the massage system does not know to what extent the pressure or stimulation of the acupuncture points being massaged by the person being massaged can relax when it is used again, but only provides fixation. The degree of strength or stimulation.

In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, the present invention is to provide a method of operation of a massage system, which provides massage services according to the acupoints of the massaged part of the person being massaged, and defines the comfort level of the person being massaged by measuring physiological signals, so as to establish conformity to the person being massaged. Massage information.

The operation method of the massage system of the present invention includes the following steps: obtaining the actual image of the massaged part of the person being massaged to establish an acupoint model of the massaged part, the acupuncture model including at least one acupoint position; comparing the acupoint models to generate massage services ; Provide massage services to the area being massaged through the acupoint model; detect the physiological signals of the person being massaged during the massage service; and complete the massage data based on the physiological signals. The massage data include actual images and physiological signals.

In this way, the operation method of the massage system of the present invention can establish the acupoint model based on the actual image of the massaged part to ensure that the acupoint can be massaged or stimulated correctly. In addition, the feeling of the person being massaged can be defined through the observation of physiological signals. Improve the service quality of automatic massage.

The detailed environment, device, system, use or operation mode of the operation method of the massage system provided by the present invention will be described in the detailed description of the subsequent implementation.

However, the components, composition and flow of the massage system in each figure are only used to illustrate the technical features of the present invention, but not to limit the present invention.

1 is a schematic diagram of the composition of the massage system of the present invention. The massage system 100 includes a photographing device 110, a heart rate sensor 130, a massage device 150, and an operating computer 170. The photographing device 110, the heart rate sensor 130 and the massage device 150 are electrically connected to the operating computer 170.

The photographing device 110 is used to photograph or scan the massaged part of the person being massaged to obtain the actual image of the massaged part, and the photographing device 110 may photograph or scan the two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) image of the massaged part to provide The operating computer 170 constructs the acupoint model of the massaged part, and the massage model can be two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) data.

The heart rate sensor 130 is connected to the person being massaged to measure the heart rate change of the person being massaged to generate physiological signals, and the computer 170 is operated to receive the physiological signals and process the physiological signals.

The operating computer 170 controls the massage device 150, and provides corresponding massage services to the person being massaged through the acupoint model.

As shown in FIG. 2, the operation method 300 of the massage system 100 of the present invention includes five steps. The sequence of the five steps can be changed, and the number of steps can be more or less. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of the massage system 100 of the present invention being executed to obtain actual images. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a massage service being performed by the massage system 100 of the present invention.

Step 310 is to obtain the actual image of the massaged part of the person being massaged, and step 330 is to establish an acupoint model of the massaged part based on the actual image, the acupoint model including at least one acupoint position. Wherein, the acquisition can be through a photographing or scanning method. The acquisition in this embodiment includes the through-photographing device 110 to photograph the actual image of the massaged part. The establishment includes receiving the actual image through the operating computer 170, and transforming the actual image into the acupoint model.

In this embodiment, a human hand 500 is taken as an example. In steps 310 and 330, an image of the hand 500 is captured by the camera 110, and the corresponding acupoint model is established by operating the computer 170.

The conversion method can refer to the same position map of the standard acupoint position map of the human body through the actual image, and scale down or enlarge the standard acupoint position map of the human body to mark the acupuncture points, or use other methods to mark the position of the acupuncture points, because the conversion (image processing) technology has been It is well known in the industry and will not be repeated here.

Step 340 is to compare the acupoint models to generate massage services. Among them, the comparison includes operating the computer 170 to confirm whether the acupoint model exists, and whether there is the storage hardware inside the computer 170 or whether the remote server (or cloud) has the acupuncture model or massage data.

When the operating computer 170 can read the same massage data as the acupoint model, it means that the acupuncture model exists. Therefore, the operating computer 170 generates massage services based on the existing massage data. When the operating computer 170 cannot find the existing massage data, it indicates that the acupoint model is newly created. Therefore, the operating computer 170 generates a new massage service.

Step 350 is to provide a massage service to the massaged part through the acupoint model, where the massage is performed through the acupuncture model in order to correctly stimulate or massage the position of the acupoint. Providing massage services includes operating the computer 170 to control the massage device 150 to execute a massage mode. The massage mode includes providing services of different levels of stimulation to the massaged part through at least one acupoint position of the acupoint model during the massage time. Different levels of stimulation can be achieved by providing different intensities by pressing, discharging, lighting, or massage. In other words, the massage device 150 may provide at least one of the massage methods such as pressing, discharging, lighting, or massage.

Step 370 is to detect the physiological signal of the person being massaged during the massage service. The detection is through the heart rate sensor 130. The heart rate sensor 130 can be a wristband type, a hand clip type, a patch type or other types of fixation. , To detect changes in the heart rate of the person being massaged. The heart rate sensor 130 is used to measure the physiological signal of the person being massaged during the massage time. Heart rate change is also called Heart Rate Variability (HRV).

In the massage service in step 350, the computer 170 is operated to control the massage device 150 to provide different degrees of massage stimulation. The massage stimulation produces changes in the physiology of the person. Therefore, in step 370, the heart rate sensor 130 can actually record the heart rate change of the person being massaged. In other words, the physiological signal in this embodiment is a change in heart rate. In other embodiments, the physiological signal may also be other signals, and is not limited to a change in heart rate.

As shown in Figure 4, the massage service in step 350 takes pressing as an example, and provides three strengths of large, medium and small strength to the acupuncture points of the thumb 501. In step 370, the heart rate sensor 130 attached to or sleeved on the wrist is used. To detect changes in the heart rate of the person being massaged, the position where the heart rate sensor 130 is set is not limited to the same hand or adjacent positions. The above three strengths of force can observe the heart rate changes of the person being massaged, and analyze it to obtain which strength is most comfortable for the person being massaged. The strength of the force can be more or less, and not limited to the three examples.

Step 390 is to complete the massage data based on the physiological signal. The massage data includes the actual image and the physiological signal. To complete the massage data is to operate the computer according to the received physiological signals and compare the massage modes to obtain services with different levels of stimulation (strength). The response to at least one acupoint position to achieve the massage data. In short, the physiological signal response is stimulated by the massager ( Therefore, the actual feelings of the person being massaged can be understood through the identification of physiological signals, so as to establish the corresponding massage data. Among them, the identification method of the physiological signal has been a well-known technology in the industry, and will not be repeated here.

Because, after the person being massaged creates the massage data corresponding to the person being massaged through the operation method 300 of the present invention for the first time, if the person being massaged wants to perform the same massage service for the previous massaged part again, the operation computer 300 can be based on The massage data of the previously massaged part controls the massage device to perform a comfortable massage service for the person being massaged, so as to improve the service quality of the automatic massage service.

Finally, it is emphasized again that the constituent elements disclosed in the previously disclosed embodiments of the present invention are only examples and are not used to limit the scope of the case.
