The stress is an unavoidable result and a complex phenomenon in modern society. too, Human activity changes under control of the stress. The stress is a reaction to adrenalin or other stress hormones. It provides the power for fighting and the energy for going away from dangers. Because of the stress, our bodies increase the pulse, the blood pressure and the breath for more blood and more oxygen. So, in this research, we are measuring those which was increased by the stress. Also we will examine the change of HRV and APG on music. After that, in order to reduce the stress, we will design matching system that is based on the sense for music by using Zigbee.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the autonomic nervous system activity in various ambient temperatures. To evaluate autonomic function, we use the frequency domain analysis of heart rate variability such as FFT(fast fourier transformation), AR(Auto-Regressive) model and Lomb-Scargle peridogram. HRV(heart rate variability) is calculated by using ECG recorded from 3 different temperature room which temperature is controlled in 18℃(low), 25℃(mid) and 38℃(high), respectively. Totally 22 subjects were participated in the experiment. In the results, the most significant autonomic changes caused by temperature load were found in the HF(high frequency) component of FFT and AR model. And the HF power is decreased by increasing temperature. Significance level was increased by increasing the difference of temperatures.

This study presents a method for heart rate detection using oscillation wave signal and tries to enhance the performance of peak detection. For this objective, the method uses the average slopes around the main peak. The crossing point of the increasing and the decreasing slopes is selected as the peak point of heart rate period. The proposed method showed smoothed heart rate graph and reduced irregularity in heart rate values.

Acrophobia is an abnormal fear of heights. Medications or cognitive-behavior methods have been mainly used as a treatment. Lately the virtual reality technology has been applied to that kind of anxiety disorders. A virtual environment provides patient with stimuli which arouses phobia, and exposing to that environment makes him having ability to over come the fear. In this study, the elevator stimulator that composed with a position sensor, head mount display, and audio system, is suggested. To illustrate the physiological difference between a person who has a feel of phobia and without phobia, heart rate was measured during experiment. And also measured a person's HR after the virtual reality training and in a real building elevator. In this study, we demonstrated the subjective effectiveness of virtual reality psychotherapy through the clinical experiment.

인간의 감성은 다차원적 감정으로 이루어져 있다. 본 연구는 감성의 2차원 구조를 근거로 쾌-불쾌, 각성-이완 2차원적 감성을 생리신호로 분류하고자 하였다. 20명 남녀 대학생을 참가시켜 자극을 2차원 감성자극(쾌(펜디향수), 불쾌(에탄올), 각성(싸이렌), 이완(가요))으로 정의하고, 2*2 자극제시로 감성을 유발하였다. 26명의 남녀대학생을 실험에 참가시켜 4가지 감성을 유발하여, 측정한 생리신호로는 중추신경계의 활동을 나타내는 EEG(f3, p3, f4, p4)를 측정하였으며, 자율신경계의 활동을 나타내는 ECG(lead II), GSR, SKT를 측정하였다. 각각의 측정한 신호들에 대한 t-test를 실시하여 유의성 있는 변수를 추출하였으며 추출된 변수는 EEG의 f3(beta), p3(delta, beta), f4(delta), p4(alpha), HRV의 HF, HF/LF, GSR의 rising time이었으며 2차원 감성을 분류하였다.

Medications or conitive-behavior methods have been mainly used as a treatment of alcoholism. lately the virtualy technology has been applied to the kink of alcoholic disorders. A virtual environment makes him having avility to over come the drink. In this study, we were implemented by making panorama images and 3D object modules using 3D MAX, VRML, JAVA. And the BAR stimulator that composed with a position sensor, head mount display, and audio system, is suggested. To illustrate the physiological difference between a person who has a alcoholism and without a liquor bottle, heart rate was measured during experiment, and also measured a person's HR after the virtual reality training. The system measures the Physiological signals such as ECG, Temperature, analyzes those data automatically. The system has two parts, one is physiological data acquisition part which gets the body signal, and the other one is mobile nuit which includes signal processing and transmission functions, And Bluetooth allows two parts to communicate with each other. we demonstrated the subjective effectiveness of virtual reality psychotherapy through the clinical experiment.

Purpose：The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of transcutaneous electrical stimulation on autonomic nervous system using heart rate variability analysis. Methods：31 subjects were evaluated with HRV before and after a single high-frequency TENS for 15minutes treatment. The standard deviation of all the normal RR-interval(SDNN) and lower frequency/high frequency ratio(LF/HF ratio) were recorded with TAS-9. Results：After single TENS treatment, autonomic adaptation as analyzed by SDNN was increased from $42.47\pm12.96$ to $4.43\pm16.76$(p>0.05) and autonomic balance as analyzed by LF/HF ratio was increased from $1.4\pm0.45$ to $1.45\pm0.41$(p>0.05). Conclusion：In this study, SDNN and LF/HF ratio changed in health young students as a result of single TENS treatment. But there is no significant difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment of SDNN and LF/HF ratio.

Twenty nine HRV models have been tested for last two years since the attestation system has been started by KARSE. It is the objective of the present study to analyze the performance test results. Uncertainty analysis has been conducted to find the effects of measured variables on the uncertainties of test results. The uncertainty of enthalpy is found to be affected by the uncertainty of wet bulb temperature significantly, but not by that of dry bulb temperature for the present range of parameters. The uncertainty of effective enthalpy efficiency is calculated to be 6%P for the cooling condition, and 3%P for the heating condition approximately. In order to reduce the uncertainty of the test results, the uncertainty of wet bulb temperature should be minimized and the indoor/outdoor test conditions should be modified so as to increase the enthalpy difference.

우리는 감성 공학에 기반하여 일상 생활 속에서 비침습적이면서 사용하기 간편한 광전용적맥파신호를 계측하고 분석하는 이어폰형 생체 신호 측정 시스템에 관하여 연구하였다. 생체 신호 측정 시스템에서는 광전용적맥파(photoplethysmograph, PPG)와 3축 가속도로 생체 신호와 운동 신호를 활용하였다. 수신된 생체 신호인 광전용적맥파 신호는 Peak 검출 및 전처리 알고리즘을 통하여 심박동변동성(heart rate Variablity,HRV)에 대한 시계열 정보로 변환하고 고속 퓨리에 변환(Fast Fourier Transfirm, FFT)과 전력 스펙트럼 밀도 분석(Power Spectrum Density, PSD)방법으로 교감과 부교감 신경 활성도 변화를 관측하였고, 운동 센서로 움직임을 관측하였다. 수신부 시스템은 안드로이드 기반의 자바 어플리케이션으로 스마트 폰에서 구현하였고, 송신부인 이어폰 생체정보 측정모듈로 맥파를 측정하여 상황에 따라 변화하는 자율 신경계의 활성도비율을 확인하였다.
