We have examined and analyzed the status of policy, R＆D investments, patents and market share of physiological signal measurement technologies for major countries including Korea, the United States, European Union and Japan. Korea is generally inferior to the others in terms of priority of industrial policy, R＆D investment, number of patents, technological level and world market share. However, Korea could recover competitiveness, with intensive government supports for this technology.

의료의 고도화를 위해서는 각종 생체현상의 계측기술이 중요시된다. 그림1과 같은 생체현상의 계측과 감시를 위한 계통도에서와 같이 생체에서 얻어지는 정보를 바르게 계측하여 평가하기 위해서는 앞에서 기술한 생체의 물성에 관한 지식이 필요하다. 다음에 전극, 변환기등의 각종 새로운 센서의 개발이 중요하며, 그리고서 얻어지는 데이터를 증폭하여 전송하는 기술과 데이터를 처리하여 표시하거나 기록하는 방법도 중요하다. 지금까지는 측정이 불가능하다고 생각되어진 것들을 가능하게 하기 위한 새로운 센서의 개발과 정성적으로만 측정되었던 것들까지도 정량적으로 측정되는 새로운 계측시스템이 고안되어 비관혈계측의 경향으로 연구되고 있다. 이들 센서들 중에는 생체의 활동전위를 검출하는 전극과, 활동전위 이외의 일반생체현상을 변환기(transducer)를 이용하여 전기신호로 변환하여 검출하는 센서가 있다.

본 글에서는 인체로부터 생체전기신호를 측정하고 처리 및 해석하는 기술을 소개한다. 일반적인 계측 시스템을 구성하는 필수적인 네 가지 요소는 측정대상, 센서부, 신호처리부, 그리고 출력부이다. 생체전기신호의 측정에서 측정대상은 인체를 포함하는 생명체이다. 경우에 따라서는 생명체로부터 떼어 낸 특정 부위가 측정대상이 될 수도 있으나 본 글에서는 살아 있는 인체를 측정대상으로 설정하기로 한다. 또한 인체로부터 방사되는 에너지를 측정하는 비접촉 방식은 다루지 않고, 측정 부위를 인체의 내부 또는 표면으로 제한한다. 즉, 센서를 측정 부위에 직접 부착하는 접촉형 인체-센서 인터페이스 방법을 사용하는 경우만을 다루기로 한다.(중략)

The new medical device technologies for bio-signal information and medical information which developed in various forms have been increasing. Information gathering techniques and the increasing of the bio-signal information device are being used as the main information of the medical service in everyday life. Hence, there is increasing in utilization of the various bio-signals, but it has a problem that does not account for security reasons. Furthermore, the medical image information and bio-signal of the patient in medical field is generated by the individual device, that make the situation cannot be managed and integrated. In order to solve that problem, in this paper we integrated the QR code signal associated with the medial image information including the finding of the doctor and the bio-signal information. bio-signal. System implementation environment for medical imaging devices and bio-signal acquisition was configured through bio-signal measurement, smart device and PC. For the ROI extraction of bio-signal and the receiving of image information that transfer from the medical equipment or bio-signal measurement, .NET Framework was used to operate the QR server module on Window Server 2008 operating system. The main function of the QR server module is to parse the DICOM file generated from the medical imaging device and extract the identified ROI information to store and manage in the database. Additionally, EMR, patient health information such as OCS, extracted ROI information needed for basic information and emergency situation is managed by QR code. QR code and ROI management and the bio-signal information file also store and manage depending on the size of receiving the bio-singnal information case with a PID (patient identification) to be used by the bio-signal device. If the receiving of information is not less than the maximum size to be converted into a QR code, the QR code and the URL information can access the bio-signal information through the server. Likewise, .Net Framework is installed to provide the information in the form of the QR code, so the client can check and find the relevant information through PC and android-based smart device. Finally, the existing medical imaging information, bio-signal information and the health information of the patient are integrated over the result of executing the application service in order to provide a medical information service which is suitable in medical field.

Recently there are some trends to construct smart home system infrastructure depending upon the development of Information and Communication Technology. Also requirements of the Ubiquitous Healthcare Systems at home which can monitor the status of health continuously are increased rapidly comparing with hospitals. Healthcare service can be divided into two categories. The first one is Alarm Service that can be used for the emergency status and the other one is Remote Support Service which can monitor the patient including home environments and give those diagnosis information to medical office or to his family. Generally wired networks and fixed healthcare measuring system have some limits to transmit reliable realtime based information for both categories described above comparing with portable monitoring system. Getting over the inefficiency we will design and implement portable healthcare system under the wireless Zigbee network environments.

In these days, wearable and mobile physiological sensing devices have been studied according to the increasing interest on the healthy and wellbeing life. However, these sensing devices display just the sensing results, such as heart rate, skin temperature, and its daily records. In this work, we propose the novel type of mobile physiological sensing device which deliver the user comfortable grabbing feeling. In addition, we indicate the personalized physiological signal analysis result which be concluded by the different analysis results according to the person to person. In order to verify this sensing device, we collect the data set from 4 different users during a week and measure the physiological signal such as heart rate, hand temperature, and skin conductance. And we observe the result how the analysis results shows the difference between the users. We expect that this work can be applied in the various health care applications in the near future.
