Abstract: A physical activity consumption amount calculation unit calculates the consumption amount of physical activity, which is the amount of physical activity consumed by a subject, from biological information acquired by a biological information acquisition unit. A recovery amount calculation unit calculates the amount of recovery, which is the amount of physical activity recovered by the subject, from the biological information acquired by the biological information acquisition unit. A retained physical activity amount calculation unit calculates the amount of retained physical activity, which is the amount of physical activity retained by the subject, from the reference amount of physical activity set by the reference physical activity amount setting unit, the consumption amount of physical activity calculated by the physical activity consumption amount calculation unit, and the amount of recovery calculated by the recovery amount calculation unit.

Abstract: A bio-information detecting apparatus includes: a band member curved in a C-shape, and attached around a neck part of an examinee from a back side of the neck part; and a pair of electrodes for cardiac potential measurement disposed at positions on the band member that come into contact with right and left skin surfaces of the neck part, and in the pair of electrodes, a position of the electrode on the right is located relatively more frontward than a position of the electrode on the left. The bio-information detecting apparatus further includes a substrate to optically measure a blood oxygen saturation for pulse measurement at a position on the band member that comes into contact with the neck part of the examinee, and a pressing force of the substrate against the skin surface of the neck part is 0.96 to 1.21 [N/cm2].

Abstract: A heartbeat sensor obtains a heartbeat of a driver. A concentration level computing unit estimates a concentration level of the driver at a time later than a timing of obtaining the heartbeat by the heartbeat sensor, on the basis of the heartbeat obtained by the heartbeat sensor. A state determining unit controls driving assistance for a vehicle on the basis of a comparison of the concentration level of the driver estimated by the concentration level computing unit with a target concentration level of the driver that is set in association with a position or an environment in which the vehicle driven by the driver is predicted to travel.

Abstract: A sleep variable calculation portion predicts a change in a sleep depth of a sleeping subject. When the sleep variable calculation portion predicts that the subject may be in a transition state in which the sleep depth of the subject further increases at a wake-up time of the subject, a stimulus presentation device provides a stimulus to the subject at a point in time preceding the wake-up time.

Abstract: A drowsiness level detection section detects a drowsiness level of an individual person. A sleep depth level control section controls the sleep depth of the individual person based on the detected drowsiness level. The sleep depth level control section executes a first sleep control, in which the sleep depth level of the individual person is maintained at a predetermined sleep depth level below a maximum sleep depth level, if the detected drowsiness level is equal to or below a predetermined threshold.
