Abstract :
This paper describes a human health monitoring system by an air pressure sensor and an ultrasonic sensor system. The ultrasonic sensor system can obtain the state of a patient in bed by placing it under a bed frame. That is, we can determine whether or not a patient in the bed. The air pressure sensor system can detect heart beats by placing it to the mattress on the bed. By using two sensors complementary, we can detect the behavior before getting out of bed aided by fuzzy inference technique. The system of the two sensors can complementary detects the state, heart beat, a behavior before getting out of bed. Thus, the system of the two sensor systems can noninvasively and unconsciously provide human health information with high accuracy aided by fuzzy logic.
