Abstract

A notification device includes a pressure sensor, a microcontroller and an output device. The pressure sensor is used to detect the environment to provide a pressure signal. The microcontroller is connected to the pressure sensor to receive the pressure signal. The microcontroller is used to calculate a dynamic threshold of the pressure signal in a period of time. When a magnitude of the pressure signal is greater than the dynamic threshold, the microcontroller sends a first feedback signal to the output device. The output device is connected to the microcontroller. The output device is used to provide a first feedback action according to the first feedback signal.
