Speech-Controlled Health Monitoring Systems - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240324951 titled 'Speech-Controlled Health Monitoring Systems
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes systems and methods for speech-controlled health monitoring using non-contact sensors and an audio interface.
- The device supports a subject and captures acoustic and force signals.
- The processor analyzes these signals to monitor the subject's health status and detect speech.
- The audio interface communicates interactively based on the subject's health status or verbal commands.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Utilizes non-contact sensors to monitor health status.
- Detects speech in acoustic signals for interactive communication.
- Integrates audio interface for real-time feedback and commands.
Potential Applications:
- Remote health monitoring for patients.
- Speech-enabled medical devices.
- Assistive technology for individuals with limited mobility.
Problems Solved:
- Enables remote health monitoring without physical contact.
- Improves communication for individuals with speech impairments.
- Enhances user experience in healthcare settings.
Benefits:
- Real-time health monitoring.
- Enhanced communication for individuals with speech difficulties.
- Improved user experience in healthcare interactions.
Commercial Applications: "Speech-Controlled Health Monitoring System for Remote Patient Care and Assistive Technology in Healthcare"
Prior Art: Prior art in the field of non-contact health monitoring systems and speech recognition technology.
Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing research in non-contact sensor technology for health monitoring and speech recognition algorithms.
Questions about Speech-Controlled Health Monitoring: 1. How does the system differentiate between different types of speech commands? 2. What measures are in place to ensure the security and privacy of the data collected through the system?
Original Abstract Submitted
systems and methods for speech-controlled or speech-enabled health monitoring of a subject are described. a device includes a substrate configured to support a subject, a plurality of non-contact sensors configured to capture acoustic signals and force signals with respect to the subject, an audio interface configured to communicate with the subject, and a processor in connection with the plurality of sensors and the audio interface. the processor configured to determine biosignals from one or more of the acoustic signals and the force signals to monitor a subject's health status, and detect presence of speech in the acoustic signals. the audio interface configured to interactively communicate with at least one of the subject or an entity associated with the subject based on at least one of an action needed due to the subject's health status and a verbal command in detected speech.
