Method for biomedical system
A method used for a biomedical system is disclosed. The biomedical system includes an RFID apparatus and a reader apparatus communicating with the RFID apparatus. The RFID apparatus includes an electrode disposed adjacent to an acupuncture point and a motion monitor device including an accelerometer, a gyrocompass, or a pressure sensor. The method includes sending command information to the RFID apparatus from the reader apparatus; obtaining acupuncture impedance or bio-potential data through an electrode; providing nerve stimulation therapy by the RFID apparatus according to the command information, or using, by the RFID apparatus, the accelerometer, the gyrocompass, or the pressure sensor to obtain measurement data according to the command information; and submitting the acupuncture impedance/bio-potential data or the measurement data to the reader apparatus by the RFID apparatus.
1. A method used for a biomedical system, the biomedical system comprising an RFID apparatus and a reader apparatus configured to communicate with the RFID apparatus, the RFID apparatus comprising electrodes configured to be placed adjacent to an acupuncture point and a motion monitor device, the motion monitor comprising a three-axes accelerometer, a three-axes gyrocompass, or a pressure sensor, the method comprising:
sending command information to the RFID apparatus from the reader apparatus;
determining, based on the command information, which operation between a first operation and a second operation is requested to be performed,
wherein the first operation includes obtaining, by the RFID apparatus, acupuncture impedance or bio-potential data through the electrodes; and
wherein the second operation includes using, by the RFID apparatus, the accelerometer, the gyrocompass, or the pressure sensor to obtain measurement data;
performing at least one of the first operation and the second operation according to the determination result;
submitting the acupuncture impedance or the bio-potential data to the reader apparatus either when the first operation is performed, or when the first operation and the second operation are performed; and
submitting the measurement data to the reader apparatus either when the second operation is performed, or when the first operation and the second operation are performed.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of starting timing, by the reader apparatus, when the measurement data indicates that a vertical acceleration value approaches zero or below a lower bound.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising a step of providing an alarm signal when the timing exceeds a limit.
4. The method of claim 2 , further comprising a step of providing, by the reader apparatus, latest recorded location data when the measurement data indicates that a vertical acceleration value approaches zero or below a lower bound.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of determining, by the reader apparatus, location information according to the measurement data when the measurement data indicates that a vertical acceleration value is greater than a threshold.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reader apparatus comprises a building's information system.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of determining, by the reader apparatus, a movement direction, attitude or orientation of the RFID apparatus according to the measurement data.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of providing, by the reader apparatus, an instruction for conducting nerve stimulation therapy for the RFID apparatus according to the acupuncture impedance or bio-potential data.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of generating, by the reader apparatus, a diagram according to the acupuncture impedance or bio-potential data.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein performing the at least one of the first operation and the second operation according to the determination result includes performing one of the first operation and the second operation according to the determination result.
