  • Patent number: 12754202
    Abstract: A determination system, a determination device, a determination method and a determination program are provided, which are capable of notifying a start of a get-up motion by a subject person. A detection device detects a wave motion generated by the subject person and outputs an electrical signal based on the detected wave motion. A determination device 2 determines whether a signal value of the electrical signal that is detected by the detection device satisfies or not a state determination condition that a period of time when the signal value is not less than a predetermined upper limit threshold value or not more than a predetermined lower limit threshold value exceeds a predetermined time threshold value. When it is determined that the state determination condition is satisfied, the determination device 2 determines that the subject person starts the get-up motion to move from a lying position to a sitting position.

  • Patent number: 12727785
    Abstract: A state determination method, a state determination device, a state determination system, and a recording medium are provided for determining a state of a living body based on electrical signal according to a detected vibration. A state determination device 2 acquires electrical signal according to a detected vibration, and operates: a rectification unit (step S2); an envelope detection unit to derive an envelope from the rectified electrical signal (step S3); and a state determination unit to determine the state of the living body based on the derived envelope (step S4). The state determination device 2 that has determined the state of the living body outputs a determination result (step S5).
