  • Patent number: 11172854
    Abstract: An analysis system analyzes a state of a person and includes a terminal configured to be worn on the person's body. The terminal includes an acceleration sensor, a storage unit, and a processing unit. The processing unit determines whether each value contained in the time series data is in a first state in which the value is equal to or greater than the threshold or in a second state in which the value is less than the threshold. The processing unit also determines a duration which is a period of time during which the first state continues. The processing unit quantifies a brain state of the person on the basis of the duration.

  • Publication number: 20130272714
    Abstract: A state control system comprises a portable terminal and a control apparatus. The portable terminal sends a signal including identification information to an external. The control apparatus controls a controlled object in either one of a locked state and an unlocked state based on the signal sent from the portable terminal. The portable terminal sends a first signal, in a case where a event detector has not detected the event, and sends a second signal having a data length longer than a data length of the first signal, in a case where the event detector has detected the event. The control apparatus controls a controlled object to the unlocked state in a case where the controlled object is in the locked state and the controlled apparatus receives the second signal.

  • Publication number: 20120191413
    Abstract: A desired number of a data transmitted from a sensor terminal of transmitting the data subjected to sensing within a predetermined time period is previously determined. An analysis server calculates an acquiring rate of a data used in a batch processing on the basis of the desired number of the data and a number of an effective data which is actually received from the plural sensor terminals within the previously determined time period. In a case where there is a variation in the acquiring rate of the data per unit time, the analysis server carries out the batch processing by using the data from the sensor terminal.
