Biological information measurement apparatus, information processing apparatus, and biological information measurement system

1. A biological information measurement apparatus comprising:

a sensor unit having a plurality of sensors to detect biological information;

a processing unit which obtains a first type of biological information and a second type of biological information based on sensor information from the sensor unit;

a communication unit which transmits the first type of biological information and the type of second biological information to an information processing apparatus; and

a storage unit which stores the second type of biological information,

wherein the communication unit transmits the first type of biological information, including at least one of pulse rate, step count, and calorie consumption, at a first periodic time interval to the information processing apparatus, and transmits the second type of biological information, including at least sleep information, stored in the storage unit at a second periodic time interval longer than the first periodic time interval to the information processing apparatus, wherein the second type of biological information is transmitted less frequently and at a higher data rate than the first type of biological information, and

wherein the communication unit divides data of the second type of biological information into a plurality of blocks each having a plurality of packets, and for each of the plurality of blocks:

transmits the plurality of packets of the corresponding block with a first characteristic having a property of read with no acknowledge by proximity wireless communication such that the plurality of packets are transmitted without waiting for acknowledgement from the information processing apparatus; and

after transmission of the plurality of packets in the corresponding block, receives the reception result of that block from the information processing apparatus with a second characteristic having a property of write with acknowledge.

2. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the communication unit transmits the first type of biological information with a first data amount at the transmission timing of the first periodic time interval and transmits the second type of biological information with a second data amount greater than the first data amount at the transmission timing of the second periodic time interval.

3. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a time output unit which outputs the measurement time of the second type of biological information,

wherein the storage unit stores the second type of biological information in association with the measurement time.

4. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a time output unit which outputs time,

wherein the communication unit determines the transmission timing of the second type of biological information based on the time output from the time output unit and transmits the second type of biological information at the determined transmission timing.

5. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the communication unit changes a communication speed from a first communication speed to a second communication speed faster than the first communication speed before the second type of biological information is transmitted and changes the communication speed to a third communication speed slower than the second communication speed after transmission of the second type of biological information is completed.

6. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the second type of biological information includes information regarding at least one of calorie intake, mental stress information, and behavior analysis information.

7. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the storage unit accumulates and stores the first type of biological information, and

the second type of biological information includes the first type of biological information accumulated in the storage unit.

8. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the communication unit transmits the first type of biological information based on a standard profile of a communication standard for communication by the communication unit and transmits the second type of biological information based on a specific profile of the communication standard.

9. The biological information measurement apparatus according to claim 8 ,

wherein the communication standard is a proximity wireless communication standard, and

the standard profile is a profile which is standardized in the proximity wireless communication standard.
