Abstract

Recently, as interest in health increases, various wearable devices such as smart watch and smart band which can measure user's biometric information are being studied. Conventional wearable devices service the measured biometric information in a form that provides simple monitoring, disease prevention, and exercise amount. However, the user is Lack to deal with the dangerous situation. In this paper, we propose a hazard notification system to address these problems. The biometric information measured by the acceleration sensor and the heart rate sensor is transmitted to the application through the Arduino in real time. It identifies the risk situation through sensor priority measurement and risk situation identification algorithm. If a dangerous situation occurs, a notification message is sent to the guardian indicating the current location of the user. Therefore, it can be expected that if a dangerous situation occurs to a user who needs protection, he can respond promptly.

최근 건강에 대한 관심이 증가함에 따라 사용자의 생체정보를 측정할 수 있는 스마트 워치와 스마트 밴드 등 다양한 웨어러블 디바이스(Wearable Device)들이 연구되고 있다. 그러나 기존의 웨어러블 디바이스들은 측정된 생체정보를 단순 모니터링이나 질병 예방법, 운동량 등을 제공하는 형태로만 서비스하고 있어 실제 사용자가 위험상황이 발생할 경우에 대한 대처는 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 위험상황 알림 시스템을 제안한다. 아두이노를 통해 가속도 센서와 심박 센서로 측정된 생체정보를 실시간으로 어플리케이션에 전송하고 센서 우선순위 측정과 위험상황 식별 알고리즘을 통해 위험상황을 식별한 후 위험상황이 발생하면 보호자에게 사용자의 현재 위치를 알림 메시지를 전송한다. 이에 따라 보호가 필요한 사용자에게 위험한 상황이 발생하면 신속하게 대처할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
