SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REAL-TIME PERSONNEL FATIGUE LEVEL MONITORING

摘要

The present invention relates to analyzing fatigue level of users by transmitting pressure data from user's shoes wirelessly for real-time monitoring. Athletes for in body-contact games such as football, are often suddenly forced out of games due to injuries as it is often difficult to ascertain the nature of the injury on the field. The present invention enables a coach to have an ability to monitor performance of the athletes as they play, thus help in determining current level of athlete's injury, and help in preventing career threatening and/or fatal injuries. Further, pressure sensors can be used to determine fatigue detection and can be verified by readings from knock sensor, accelerometer data, etc. Variations in all such sensors for a time slice t-seconds can be used as an indicator for fatigue.

主权项

1. A system for embedding in a shoe and monitoring fatigue level of a subject, wherein said shoe having a sole, comprising:
a plurality of pressure sensors disposed in the shoe sole; a micro-controller connecting to said plurality of pressure sensors and configured to receive readings of said plurality of pressure sensors; and a wireless interface connecting to said micro-controller and configured to send the readings of said plurality of pressure sensors wirelessly to a base station, wherein said base station determines the fatigue level of the subject based on the reading of said plurality of pressure sensors transmitted by the wireless interface.
