Abstract

A skin condition detection method adapted to detect a skin condition of each of a plurality of facial areas by a detection apparatus is provided. The skin condition detection method includes the following steps: providing an action prompt that prompts to place the detection apparatus on one of the facial areas; detecting a user action corresponding to the detection apparatus; determining if the user action including the detection apparatus corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt; and when the user action including the detection apparatus corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt, analyzing the skin condition of the facial area by a skin analysis method corresponding to the facial area. In addition, an electronic apparatus and a skin condition detection system using the skin condition detection method are also provided.

Claims (38)

1. A skin condition detection method adapted to detect a skin condition of each of a plurality of facial areas by an electronic apparatus, the skin condition detection method comprising:

providing an action prompt, wherein the action prompt prompts to place a detection apparatus on one of the plurality of facial areas;

capturing a plurality of images;

performing a facial detection based on the plurality of images to analyze the plurality of facial areas to detect a user action corresponding to the detection apparatus on the facial area;

determining if the user action corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt; and

when the user action corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt, analyzing the skin condition of the facial area by a skin analysis method corresponding to the facial area, wherein the skin analysis method corresponding to each of the plurality of facial areas is different from each other.

2. The skin condition detection method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein detecting the user action corresponding to the detection apparatus on the facial area comprises:

analyzing the user action comprising the detection apparatus based on the plurality of images and the plurality of facial areas.

3. The skin condition detection method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein analyzing the skin condition of the facial area by the skin analysis method corresponding to the facial area comprises:

obtaining a detection result of the detection apparatus; and

based on the detection result, calculating the skin condition by using the skin analysis method, wherein the skin condition comprises hydration and melanin.

4. The skin condition detection method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

prompting at least one unanalyzed facial area among the plurality of facial areas.

5. An electronic apparatus adapted to detect a skin condition of each of a plurality of facial areas, the electronic apparatus comprising:

a storage device configured to store a plurality of modules;

an image capturing device configured to capture a plurality of images; and

a processor coupled to the storage device and the image capturing device, and configured to access and execute the plurality of modules stored by the storage device, the plurality of modules comprising:

a prompt module providing an action prompt, wherein the action prompt prompts to place a detection apparatus on one of the plurality of facial areas;

an action detection module detecting a user action corresponding to the detection apparatus on the facial area by the plurality of images, wherein the action detection module performs a facial detection based on the plurality of images captured by the image capturing device to analyze the plurality of facial areas;

a determination module determining if the user action corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt; and

an analysis module, when the user action corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt, analyzing the skin condition of the facial area by a skin analysis method corresponding to the facial area, wherein the skin analysis method corresponding to each of the plurality of facial areas is different from each other.

6. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the action detection module, when detecting the user action corresponding to the detection apparatus on the facial area, analyzes the user action comprising the detection apparatus based on the plurality of images and the plurality of facial areas.

7. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising:

a communication device coupled to the processor and configured to communicate with the detection apparatus,

wherein the analysis module, when analyzing the skin condition of the facial area by the skin analysis method corresponding to the facial area, obtains a detection result of the detection apparatus and, based on the detection result, calculates the skin condition by using the skin analysis method,

wherein the skin condition comprises hydration and melanin.

8. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the prompt module further prompts at least one unanalyzed facial area among the plurality of facial areas.

9. A skin condition detection system, comprising:

a detection apparatus configured to detect a skin condition of each of a plurality of facial areas; and

an electronic apparatus comprising:

a communication device configured to communicate with the detection apparatus;

a storage device configured to store a plurality of modules;

an image capturing device configured to capture a plurality of images; and

a processor coupled to the storage device, the image capturing device, and the communication device, and configured to access and execute the plurality of modules stored by the storage device, the plurality of modules comprising:

a prompt module providing an action prompt, wherein the action prompt prompts to place the detection apparatus on one of the plurality of facial areas;

an action detection module detecting a user action corresponding to the detection apparatus on the facial area by the plurality of images, wherein the action detection module performs a facial detection based on the plurality of images captured by the image capturing device to analyze the plurality of facial areas;

a determination module determining if the user action corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt; and

an analysis module, when the user action corresponds to the facial area prompted by the action prompt, obtaining a detection result of the detection apparatus by the communication device; and based on the detection result, calculating the skin condition by using a skin analysis method corresponding to the facial area, wherein the skin analysis method corresponding to each of the plurality of facial areas is different from each other.
