  • Publication number: 20210208691
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pressure measuring device using a textile sensor. In one embodiment the pressure measuring device includes: a textile sensor which exhibits conductivity; a power unit which supplies power to the pressure measuring device; and a control unit which is electrically connected to a textile sensor layer and the power unit, checks a resistance change value detected by the textile sensor by a force applied to the textile sensor, and determines the pressure value of the force applied to the textile sensor on the basis of the checked resistance change value, wherein the control unit checks a control command corresponding to the pressure value measured on the basis of the force applied to the textile sensor, and may transmit the control command to a pre-designated peripheral device. A function corresponding to the checked control command may be executed on the pre-designated peripheral device.

  • Publication number: 20200187685
    Abstract: A pillow for automatically adjusting a height of the pillow is provided. The pillow includes a pillow cover including a pressure sensor to sense pressure applied when a user puts a head of the user on the pillow, a plurality of air pockets positioned inside the pillow cover, an air injection unit to adjust an amount of air inside the air pocket, and a controller. The control unit senses pressure of a contact region between a body of the user and the pillow cover when the user puts the head of the user on the pillow, and controls the air injection unit to adjust the air amount inside at least one of the plurality of air pockets such that distribution of the pressure of the contact region is within a preset range, when the distribution of the pressure of the contact region is out of the preset range.
