Description

生理共振刺激方法及使用該方法的穿戴式系統  Physiological resonance stimulation method and wearable system using the same  

本發明相關於一種生理共振刺激方法及使用該方法的穿戴式系統,特別地是,相關於一種以生理訊號,尤其是腦電訊號,作為基礎而進行調整的生理共振刺激方法與穿戴式系統。 The present invention relates to a physiological resonance stimulation method and a wearable system using the same, and more particularly to a physiological resonance stimulation method and a wearable system that are adjusted based on a physiological signal, particularly an electroencephalogram signal.

隨著現代人越來越重視自身的健康情形,以及對於即時瞭解生理狀態的需求,穿戴形式生理檢測裝置越來越受到重視,並逐漸蓬勃發展。 As modern people pay more and more attention to their own health conditions, as well as the need to understand the physiological state in real time, the wear form physiological detection device has been paid more and more attention and has gradually flourished.

穿戴式生理檢測裝置採用穿戴方式的主要目的之一就是希望能夠在日常生活中隨時進行生理檢測,因此,所採用的穿戴形式以及穿戴行為是否能自然融入日常生活中且不造成不便,一直是使用者能否接受的重要因素之一,也因此,當前所見的各種穿戴式生理檢測裝置皆著眼於與日常生活中常見的穿戴配件相結合,例如,手錶,耳機等。 One of the main purposes of the wearable physiological detection device in the wearable mode is to be able to perform physiological tests at any time in daily life. Therefore, whether the wearing form and the wearing behavior can be naturally integrated into daily life without causing inconvenience is always used. One of the important factors that can be accepted, therefore, the various wearable physiological testing devices currently seen are aimed at combining wearable accessories that are common in daily life, such as watches, earphones, and the like.

另外一種可選擇的穿戴配件是眼鏡。近年來,眼鏡已不再限於近視患者配戴,逐漸成為裝飾配件,是一般人日常生活中常見且經常使用的配件,因此,利用眼鏡作為連續配戴生理檢測裝置的媒介亦是相當適合的一個選擇,同樣有助於提升使用者的接受度。 Another optional wear accessory is glasses. In recent years, glasses have no longer been limited to wearing by myopia patients, and have gradually become decorative accessories. They are common and frequently used accessories in daily life. Therefore, the use of glasses as a medium for continuously wearing physiological detection devices is also a suitable choice. It also helps to increase user acceptance.

且有鑑於眼鏡結構的穿戴位置是頭部,並設置於臉部正面,因此,相對於其他的穿戴結構,其可取得更多種類的生理訊號,例如,當設置電極時,可取得腦電訊號,眼電訊號,心電訊號,肌電訊號,皮膚電訊 號等,以及當設置光感測器時,可取得脈波訊號以及血氧訊號等。 Moreover, since the wearing position of the eyeglass structure is the head and is disposed on the front of the face, more kinds of physiological signals can be obtained with respect to other wearing structures, for example, when the electrodes are set, the brain electric signal can be obtained. Eyewave signals, electrocardiogram signals, myoelectric signals, skin electrical signals, etc., and when the light sensor is set, pulse signals and blood oxygen signals can be obtained.

然而,由於眼鏡是配戴於臉上的配件,不但相當明顯,也極容易對使用者的外表造成影響,因此,不同於較容易被隱藏或較不容易受到注意的其他戴配件,如手錶、耳機等,當眼鏡的外觀造型顯得突兀、或無法符合使用者的審美要求時,接收度就會大幅的下降,例如,市面上推出了許多智慧眼鏡,雖然功能強大,但卻多顯得造型突兀,不容易於一般日常生活中使用,因而造成普及度無法提升,也因此,雖然眼鏡確實是適合設置生理檢測裝置的結構,但卻較為少見。 However, since the glasses are accessories worn on the face, they are not only quite obvious, but also extremely easy to affect the appearance of the user, and therefore, unlike other wearing accessories that are more easily hidden or less noticeable, such as watches, Headphones, etc., when the appearance of the glasses is abrupt, or can not meet the user's aesthetic requirements, the degree of reception will be greatly reduced. For example, many smart glasses are introduced on the market, although powerful, but it looks awkward. It is not easy to use in general daily life, and thus the popularity cannot be improved. Therefore, although the glasses are indeed suitable for the structure of the physiological detecting device, they are relatively rare.

因此,若能提供一種眼鏡結構,其在具有生理訊號擷取功能的同時,亦不犧牲外觀造型,相信將非常有助於提升一般大眾的接受度。 Therefore, if a spectacles structure can be provided, it has a physiological signal capturing function without sacrificing appearance, and it is believed that it will greatly contribute to the acceptance of the general public.

一般日常生活中常見的眼鏡結構,依使用材質的不同,主要分為金屬材質眼鏡,以及膠類材質眼鏡,其中,膠類材質有多種選擇,例如,醋酸纖維(Cellulose Acetate),賽璐珞(Celluloid,硝化纖維),塑膠等,都是常用於製作眼鏡的膠類材質,在這些材質中,一般而言,以金屬材質、醋酸纖維材質、賽璐珞材質所製成的眼鏡結構可提供較佳的質感以及造形設計,例如,金屬材質可塑性高,並可呈現金屬特有質地的視覺效果,另外,醋酸纖維材質同樣是可塑性高的材質,顏色選擇多樣,並可呈現塑膠材質所沒有的光澤度、透明感,且亦可與其他材質,如金屬材質混用,而達成不同的風格,再者,賽璐珞材質則是有耐用、硬度高、光澤優美、不易變形、以及可重新拋光等優點,也同樣可與金屬混用;至於塑膠材質,由於質感與可塑性皆不佳,故多被用於製作追求低價的眼鏡。因此,在當前市場上,最常被使用且最受歡迎的是由金屬材質、醋酸纖維材質、賽璐 珞材質所製成的眼鏡。 Generally, the glasses structure commonly used in daily life is mainly divided into metal material glasses and plastic material glasses according to different materials used. Among them, rubber materials have various options, for example, Cellulose Acetate, Celluloid, Nitrifying fiber, plastic, etc., are all kinds of rubber materials commonly used in making glasses. In these materials, in general, the glasses structure made of metal material, acetate fiber, and celluloid material can provide better texture and The shape design, for example, the metal material has high plasticity and can exhibit the visual effect of the unique texture of the metal. In addition, the acetate fiber material is also a material with high plasticity, and the color selection is various, and the gloss and transparency which are not possessed by the plastic material can be exhibited. It can also be mixed with other materials, such as metal materials, to achieve different styles. In addition, celluloid materials are durable, hard, lustrous, non-deformable, and re-polished. They can also be mixed with metals. As for plastic materials, because of the poor texture and plasticity, it is often used to make chase Cheap glasses. Therefore, in the current market, the most commonly used and most popular glasses are made of metal, acetate, and celluloid.

另外,在製程上方面,醋酸纖維材質及賽璐珞材質則由於材質本身的特性,故與塑膠材質的製程完全不同。其中,利用醋酸纖維材質製作眼鏡結構時,是由板材開始進行裁切、堆疊、拋光等各種工序,另外,使用賽璐珞材質時,則是從塊狀的基材開始,經由多道的手工製作程序,例如,裁板、修型、拋光等,之後,才形成眼鏡結構,而若希望於此兩種材質的眼鏡結構中混用其他材質,例如,金屬,則會利用嵌入、夾設、及/或插入等方式來與其結合,一來可作為支撐之用,二來也可營造不同的視覺效果及造型。至於塑膠材質,則是採用射出成型的方式來製作眼鏡。 In addition, in terms of process, acetate fiber and celluloid material are completely different from plastic materials due to the nature of the material itself. Among them, when the eyeglass structure is made of acetate fiber, various processes such as cutting, stacking, and polishing are started from the plate material, and when the celluloid material is used, the mass production process is started from a block-shaped substrate. For example, cutting, trimming, polishing, etc., after which the eyeglass structure is formed, and if it is desired to mix other materials, such as metal, in the eyeglass structure of the two materials, it will be embedded, clamped, and/or Insertion and other methods to combine with it, can be used as a support, and can also create different visual effects and shapes. As for the plastic material, the lens is produced by injection molding.

目前,為了透過眼鏡結構設置生理感測元件,以取得生理訊號,最先面臨到的課題就是,如何在眼鏡結構中設置電路,因為必須達成生理感測元件與控制電路間的電連接,才能執行生理訊號的擷取。尤其,頭部是取得腦電訊號及眼電訊號唯一的可能位置,故眼鏡形式的生理檢測裝置,具有執行腦電訊號及/或眼電訊號擷取的可能性,而對眼鏡結構而言,此兩種訊號的取樣位置就是頭部兩側以及兩眼中間會接觸到鏡框單元或鏡腳的位置,因此,為了達成電極及電路的設置,可以利用於鏡框單元及鏡腳中設置線路的方式,所以,自然習知的方式是,利用可以射出成型方式製作的塑膠材質眼鏡,如此一來,就可將線路包覆於鏡框單元以及鏡腳中,例如,形成中空殼體用以穿過線路,或利用塑膠封裝線路成形等,另外,由於線路需要通過轉折處,例如,利用軟性電路板作為承載,故於鏡框單元與鏡腳的交接處通常還需經過特殊的設計。然而,正如上述,首先,塑膠材質所能提供的質感已無法比擬醋酸纖維、賽璐珞材質,若進一步地, 鏡框部分為了配合設置線路而在設計上偏離一般的結構設計,將對配戴視覺的效果影響很大,因此,較難在市場上為消費者所接受。 At present, in order to obtain physiological signals through the glasses structure to obtain physiological signals, the first problem is how to set up the circuit in the eyeglass structure, because the electrical connection between the physiological sensing component and the control circuit must be achieved. Extraction of physiological signals. In particular, the head is the only possible location for obtaining the EEG signal and the EO signal. Therefore, the physiological detecting device in the form of glasses has the possibility of performing brain electric signals and/or EO signal extraction, and for the eyeglass structure, The sampling position of the two signals is the position of the frame unit or the temples on both sides of the head and between the eyes. Therefore, in order to achieve the electrode and circuit arrangement, the circuit can be used in the frame unit and the temple. Therefore, the natural way of knowing is to use plastic material glasses that can be produced by injection molding, so that the circuit can be wrapped in the frame unit and the temples, for example, to form a hollow casing for passing through. The line, or the use of plastic packaging circuit forming, etc., in addition, because the line needs to pass through the turning point, for example, using a flexible circuit board as a load, the intersection of the frame unit and the temple is usually subject to special design. However, as mentioned above, first of all, the texture provided by the plastic material can no longer be compared with the acetate fiber and the celluloid material. If further, the frame part deviates from the general structural design in order to match the set circuit, and the visual effect will be worn. The impact is great, so it is more difficult for consumers to accept in the market.

據此,在上述這些基礎下,申請人認為,若要使眼鏡式生理檢測裝置廣為一般消費者所接受,顯然必須採用質感、造型皆已為大眾所接受且喜愛的眼鏡結構,而非讓消費者勉強接受質感不佳、造型特殊的眼鏡,而且,更具優勢地是,若能使其可取代平時使用的眼鏡,例如,視力矯正眼鏡,太陽眼鏡,藍光眼鏡等,如此一來,即使於日常生活中也可不間斷地且自然地進行生理檢測,將可真正實現穿戴式生理檢測的最佳意義。 Based on the above, the applicant believes that if the glasses-type physiological detection device is widely accepted by the general consumers, it is obvious that the lens structure that the texture and shape have been accepted and loved by the public must be adopted instead of letting Consumers are reluctant to accept glasses with poor texture and special shape, and, more importantly, if they can replace the glasses that are usually used, for example, vision correction glasses, sunglasses, blue glasses, etc., so that even Physiological testing can be carried out continuously and naturally in daily life, which will truly realize the best meaning of wearable physiological testing.

當眼鏡配戴於臉上時,很自然地會接觸的位置包括兩眼間區域,例如,鼻梁、山根等,頭部兩側太陽穴附近,耳朵,以及耳朵附近的頭部區域,例如,耳朵上方或後方,通常,只要選擇了一副適合自己的眼鏡,這些位置與眼鏡間的接觸就可自然地達成,無須特意施力,因此,若可將生理感測元件,例如,電極或是光感測器等,設置於這些位置上,則只要配戴眼鏡的動作完成後,生理感測元件的設置亦等於已經完成。 When the glasses are worn on the face, the places that naturally come into contact include areas between the eyes, such as the bridge of the nose, the roots of the mountains, the vicinity of the temples on both sides of the head, the ears, and the head area near the ears, for example, above the ears. Or at the rear, usually, as long as a pair of glasses suitable for oneself is selected, the contact between these positions and the glasses can be naturally achieved without intentional force application. Therefore, if physiological sensing elements such as electrodes or light sensations can be used, The detector or the like is disposed at these positions, and the setting of the physiological sensing element is equal to the completion as long as the action of wearing the glasses is completed.

至於可取得之電生理訊號的種類,則是有許多可能,例如,透過鏡框單元與兩眼間區域的接觸以及鏡腳與太陽穴、耳朵、及/或耳朵附近區域的接觸,可同時取得眼電訊號以及腦電訊號;透過兩邊鏡腳與頭部皮膚的接觸,可取得腦電訊號;以及透過任何二個相隔一段距離的接觸位置也可取得肌電訊號、或皮膚電訊號,有相當多的可能性。 As for the types of electrophysiological signals that can be obtained, there are many possibilities. For example, the contact between the frame unit and the area between the eyes and the contact of the temples with the temples, ears, and/or the vicinity of the ear can simultaneously obtain the otoscope. No. and EEG signals; EEG signals can be obtained by contact between the temples on both sides and the skin of the head; and EMG signals or skin signals can be obtained through any two contact positions separated by a distance. possibility.

在眼鏡具有這麼多優勢的情形下,本發明即進一步藉由提供最簡單、方便、且不影響眼鏡外觀,尤其是正面鏡框單元外觀,的方式來達成利用眼鏡結構設置電極以及取得生理訊號所需的取樣迴路的概念,以藉此提升大眾的接受度。 In the case that the glasses have such advantages, the present invention further provides for the use of the glasses structure for setting electrodes and obtaining physiological signals by providing the simplest, most convenient, and without affecting the appearance of the glasses, especially the appearance of the front frame unit. The concept of a sampling loop to enhance public acceptance.

而需先行闡明地是,在此所敘述的眼鏡結構是指,藉由耳廓以及鼻子作為支撐點而設置於頭上、且會與頭部及/或耳朵之皮膚產生接觸的穿戴結構,其可以是具有或不具有鏡片的形式,具有或不具有絞鍊結構的形式,也可以是各種不同使用目的的眼鏡,舉例而言,可以是一般的光學眼鏡,或是太陽眼鏡,或是有特殊功能的眼鏡,例如,藍光眼鏡,虛擬實境眼鏡(Virtual Reality Glasses,VR Glasses),擴增實境眼鏡(Augmented Reality Glasses,AR Glasses),以及具有顯示功能的特殊眼鏡等,此外,也有些眼鏡為了增加固定效果還會於兩鏡腳間設置綁帶,另外,與頭部/耳朵的接觸位置亦無限制,例如,有些眼鏡為了實際使用需求或造型,例如,VR眼鏡,也會實施為接觸眼睛周圍的其他部位,因此都是可能的形式,這些都是本發明的應用範疇,故沒有一定的限制。 It should be clarified that the spectacles structure described herein refers to a wear structure which is placed on the head by the auricle and the nose as a support point and which is in contact with the skin of the head and/or the ear. It is in the form of a lens with or without a lens, with or without a hinge structure, or it can be a variety of glasses for different purposes. For example, it can be general optical glasses, sunglasses, or special functions. Glasses, for example, Blu-ray glasses, Virtual Reality Glasses (VR Glasses), Augmented Reality Glasses (AR Glasses), and special glasses with display functions, in addition, some glasses for Adding a fixed effect will also provide a strap between the two temples. In addition, there is no limit to the position of the head/ear. For example, some glasses are also used for contact with the eyes for practical use or styling, for example, VR glasses. Other parts around are therefore possible forms, and these are all areas of application of the present invention, so there is no limitation.

首先,在根據本發明第一方面的構想中,主要著重的是如何在不改變一般眼鏡結構中鏡框單元以及該鏡腳間的接合處結構的情形下,而達成分別設置於鏡框單元與一鏡腳上、或設置於二鏡腳上的電極與電路系統間的導通。 First of all, in the concept according to the first aspect of the present invention, the main emphasis is how to respectively provide the frame unit and a mirror without changing the frame unit of the general eyeglass structure and the joint structure between the temples. Conduction between the electrodes on the foot or on the two temples and the circuitry.

在眼鏡結構中,鏡框單元與鏡腳的接合處,可說是營造視覺效果很重要的一環,更是使用者挑選眼鏡結構時的重點之一,因此,若可不改變此處的結構,對於維持鏡框單元正面視覺效果的完整性而言,將有很大的幫助。 In the structure of the glasses, the joint between the frame unit and the temples can be said to be a very important part of creating a visual effect. It is also one of the key points when the user selects the structure of the glasses. Therefore, if the structure here is not changed, The integrity of the frontal visual effects of the frame unit will be of great help.

一般而言,無論是採用哪一種材質的眼鏡結構,鏡腳與鏡框單元間的接合,採用絞鍊結構來達成是經常的方式,以使得鏡腳得以與鏡框單元間產生相對位置改變,故幾乎是所有眼鏡結構中不可或缺的構件,而 其中最常見的則是金屬絞鍊結構,如圖1所示,一眼鏡結構10利用一金屬絞鍊結構18而達成在一鏡框單元12以及一鏡腳14之間的結合,因此,在申請人的構想中,若可利用金屬絞鍊結構作為電路的一部份,就能自然地達成鏡腳與鏡框單元兩部分間的電訊號傳遞。 In general, no matter which material is used, the joint between the temple and the frame unit is a common way to achieve a relative position change between the frame and the frame unit. It is an indispensable component in all spectacles structures, and the most common one is a metal hinge structure. As shown in FIG. 1, a spectacles structure 10 is realized by a metal hinge structure 18 in a frame unit 12 and a mirror. The combination of the feet 14 and, therefore, in the applicant's concept, if a metal hinge structure can be utilized as part of the circuit, the electrical signal transmission between the temples and the frame unit can be naturally achieved.

在此,要闡明地是,所謂的金屬絞鍊結構是指至少藉由一與鏡框單元相接的金屬件以及一與鏡腳相接的金屬件而達成鏡腳相對於鏡框單元的位置改變者,例如,展開以及收合,將視各種眼鏡結構的設計而有所不同,但只要能達成位置改變者皆屬本發明的範疇,例如,如圖2A所示,可以是其中一個配件穿置於另一配件中的形式,或是如圖2B所示,兩配件再透過一軸心而彼此結合的形式,因此,可以是任何形式,沒有限制。另外,絞鍊結構亦可由其他的可導電材質所製成,例如,導電橡膠,導電矽膠等,或者,也可實施為混合材質的形式,只需在鏡腳展開時,能夠形成用以傳輸電訊號的連接即可,同樣沒有限制。 Here, it should be clarified that the so-called metal hinge structure means that the position of the temple relative to the frame unit is changed by at least a metal member that is in contact with the frame unit and a metal member that is in contact with the temple. For example, unfolding and folding will vary depending on the design of the various eyeglass structures, but any change in position can be achieved within the scope of the present invention. For example, as shown in FIG. 2A, one of the accessories can be placed. The form of the other accessory, or the form in which the two components are combined with each other through a shaft center as shown in FIG. 2B, can be of any form, without limitation. In addition, the hinge structure can also be made of other conductive materials, such as conductive rubber, conductive silicone, etc., or can be implemented as a mixed material, which can be formed to transmit telecommunications only when the temples are deployed. The number is connected, and there is no limit.

另外,替代地,在不改變鏡框單元與鏡腳接合處外觀的前提下,亦可利用其他的方式來達成,例如,可將一對金屬接觸件分別設置於鏡框單元以及設置於鏡腳上,再透過一電連接件設置於兩接觸件之間,就可藉此而達成電連接,同樣容易實施且不影響外觀;或者,也可將金屬接觸件以及電連接件實施為一體,也就是,將一部份的電連接件與鏡框單元上金屬接觸件相整合,以及將另一部份的電連接件與鏡腳上金屬接觸件相整合,例如,利用直接鑄造為一體,在此情形下,則只需要兩個金屬接觸件間相互達成連接即可;又或者,若鏡腳或鏡框單元已實施為由金屬材質所製成,此時,該金屬接觸件即等於已整合於鏡腳及/或鏡框單元中,只需再 增設電連接件即可。因此,都是可實施的方式,沒有限制。 In addition, instead of changing the appearance of the joint between the frame unit and the temple, other methods may be used. For example, a pair of metal contacts may be respectively disposed on the frame unit and on the temple. Further, an electrical connection member is disposed between the two contact members, thereby achieving electrical connection, which is also easy to implement without affecting the appearance; or the metal contact member and the electrical connector can be integrated into one body, that is, Integrating a portion of the electrical connector with the metal contact on the frame unit and integrating the other portion of the electrical connector with the metal contact on the temple, for example, by direct casting, in which case , only two metal contacts need to be connected to each other; or, if the temple or frame unit has been implemented as a metal material, the metal contact is equal to the integrated lens and / Or in the frame unit, just add additional electrical connections. Therefore, it is all implementable and there is no limit.

接下來即敘述如何利用金屬絞鍊結構來賦予眼鏡結構電生理訊號擷取功能。然需要注意地是,雖然接下來的實施例是利用金屬絞鍊結構來進行敘述,但正如本領域具通常知識者所熟知,並非作為限制,同樣可採用如上所述之一對金屬接觸件(並搭配電連接部件)的結構。 Next, it is described how to use the metal hinge structure to give the electrophysiological signal extraction function of the glasses structure. It should be noted, however, that while the following embodiments are described using metal hinge structures, as is well known to those of ordinary skill in the art, and not by way of limitation, one of the metal contacts as described above may also be employed ( And with the structure of the electrical connection parts).

請參閱圖1,其顯示根據本發明一較佳實施例之眼鏡結構的示意圖,如圖所示,一眼鏡結構10包括一鏡框單元12,以及二鏡腳14,16,其中,該鏡框單元與該二鏡腳間分別透過一金屬絞鍊結構18而彼此相接,另外,常見地,鏡框單元於兩眼間的區域會具有二鼻墊122,124。 Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown a schematic view of a spectacles structure according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown, a spectacles structure 10 includes a frame unit 12, and two temples 14, 16 wherein the frame unit is The two mirror legs are respectively connected to each other through a metal hinge structure 18. In addition, the frame unit usually has two nose pads 122, 124 in the area between the eyes.

再者,為了自使用者身上取得電生理訊號,該眼鏡結構上還會包括二電極,在圖1所舉的實施例中,一個電極20設置於鏡腳14上,而另一個電極30則設置於單邊鼻墊122上,其中,特別地是,電極30被實施為進一步電連接至該金屬絞鍊結構18,因此,透過如此的配置,只要再將金屬絞鍊結構18連接至位於鏡腳14中用以控制訊號擷取的電路系統100,這樣的眼鏡結構即可用來取得電生理訊號,例如,腦電訊號、皮膚電訊號、及/或眼電訊號等。 Furthermore, in order to obtain an electrophysiological signal from the user, the lens structure further includes two electrodes. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, one electrode 20 is disposed on the temple 14 and the other electrode 30 is disposed. On the single-sided nose pad 122, wherein, in particular, the electrode 30 is implemented to be further electrically connected to the metal hinge structure 18, and thus, by such a configuration, the metal hinge structure 18 is connected to the temple The circuitry 100 for controlling signal acquisition in 14 can be used to obtain electrophysiological signals, such as EEG signals, skin electrical signals, and/or EO signals.

另外,替代地,電極30亦可被設置於鼻墊附近的鏡框單元上,以接觸如山根等位置,或是鏡框單元上會接觸到頭部的其他位置,例如,眼眶四周;又替代地,電極30也可被設置於另一側鏡腳16上,此時,只需先連接至鏡腳16的金屬絞鍊結構(未顯示),再連接至金屬絞鍊結構18即可,同樣可行。 In addition, alternatively, the electrode 30 may also be disposed on the frame unit near the nose pad to contact a position such as a mountain root, or other position on the frame unit that will contact the head, for example, around the eyelid; alternatively, The electrode 30 can also be disposed on the other side of the temple 16 in which case it is equally feasible to connect to the metal hinge structure (not shown) of the temple 16 and then to the metal hinge structure 18.

也就是,透過這樣的設計,只要鏡框單元與鏡腳間的結合方式 是採用金屬絞鍊結構的眼鏡結構,都可在無須改變接合處結構及外觀的情形下,方便地獲得電生理訊號擷取功能,因而提供了使用者將生理訊號擷取功能附加於符合自身選擇之眼鏡結構上的可能。 That is to say, through such a design, as long as the combination between the frame unit and the temple is a metal hinge structure, the electrophysiological signal can be conveniently obtained without changing the structure and appearance of the joint. The function thus provides the possibility for the user to attach the physiological signal capture function to the eyeglass structure that matches his choice.

正如所熟知,如圖3所示,該電路系統100會包括,但不限於,生理訊號擷取電路,處理器模組,類比數位轉換器,濾波器,電池等各種達成生理訊號擷取所需的電路及元件,且為了進行生理訊號擷取,該生理訊號擷取電路需與二個電極間達成電連接,然而,由於其皆為本領域具通常知識者所熟知,故在此即不贅述,另外,亦需注意地是,上述的電路及元件可設置於眼鏡結構的任何位置,只要相互達成電連接即可,沒有限制。 As is well known, as shown in FIG. 3, the circuit system 100 may include, but is not limited to, a physiological signal acquisition circuit, a processor module, an analog digital converter, a filter, a battery, etc., which are required for physiological signal acquisition. The circuit and components, and for physiological signal acquisition, the physiological signal acquisition circuit needs to be electrically connected to the two electrodes. However, since they are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art, they are not described herein. In addition, it should be noted that the above circuits and components may be disposed at any position of the eyeglass structure, as long as electrical connections are made to each other, without limitation.

接下來則敘述電極、金屬絞鍊結構及電路系統間如何相互連接。 Next, how the electrodes, the metal hinge structure, and the circuit system are connected to each other will be described.

其中一個選擇是,利用鏡框單元的可導電部分來達成連接。舉例而言,一種常見種類的眼鏡結構是在鏡框單元中具有金屬部分者,例如,鏡框單元單獨由金屬材質形成者,或如圖4A-4B所示,鏡框單元中的金屬部件32外覆有其他材質者,或金屬部件32嵌於其他材質中者,而且,鏡框單元中金屬部件的設置位置亦也有各種變化,例如,如圖4C所示,可僅在鏡框單元的上半部或下半部形成有金屬部件32,而對本發明而言,重要地是,在這些設計中,該鏡框單元金屬部分會連接至、或包含上述金屬絞鍊結構中的該與鏡框單元相接的金屬件,也因此,設置於鼻墊上、或鏡框其他位置上的電極就可自然地透過該鏡框單元金屬部分而連接至金屬絞鍊結構。 One option is to use the electrically conductive portion of the frame unit to achieve the connection. For example, a common type of eyeglass structure is a metal part in a frame unit, for example, the frame unit is formed of a metal material alone, or as shown in FIGS. 4A-4B, the metal part 32 in the frame unit is covered with Other materials, or the metal member 32 is embedded in other materials, and the position of the metal member in the frame unit also has various changes, for example, as shown in FIG. 4C, only in the upper or lower half of the frame unit. The metal part 32 is formed, and for the present invention, it is important that, in these designs, the metal part of the frame unit is connected to, or comprises, the metal part of the metal hinge structure that is in contact with the frame unit, Therefore, the electrodes disposed on the nose pad or at other positions of the frame can be naturally connected to the metal hinge structure through the metal portion of the frame unit.

在此,需注意地是,基於不同眼鏡設計及製程差異,只要是在製造眼鏡結構的過程中,於鏡框單元中放入連接至金屬絞鍊結構之可導電部分者,皆屬本發明所欲闡述的標的,不限任何形式,例如,可能是金屬 線、或是硬式或軟式電路板,也可能是具有造型的金屬部件,或是作為鏡框支撐主體結構的金屬部件等,而且,此可導電部分可實施為連接於兩金屬絞鍊結構之間,也可僅連接於單個金屬絞鍊結構與一個或二個鼻墊之間,或者也可同時連接兩金屬絞鍊結構與一個或二個鼻墊,皆無限制。 Here, it should be noted that, based on different eyeglass design and process differences, as long as the conductive portion connected to the metal hinge structure is placed in the frame unit in the process of manufacturing the eyeglass structure, it is desired by the present invention. The stated subject matter is not limited to any form, for example, it may be a metal wire, or a hard or flexible circuit board, or may be a metal part having a shape, or a metal part as a frame supporting main body structure, and the like, and this may be electrically conductive. The portion may be implemented to be connected between two metal hinge structures, or may be connected only between a single metal hinge structure and one or two nose pads, or may also be connected to two metal hinge structures and one or two noses at the same time. Pads are all unlimited.

另外一種選擇是,利用鏡框單元來承載該可導電部分。舉例而言,其中一種種類眼鏡結構的鏡框單元是由非導電材質所製成,例如,單純由膠類材質製成者,在此情形下,可利用外加可導電部分的方式,而達成與金屬絞鍊結構的連接,例如,該外加可導電部分可連接於兩金屬絞鍊結構之間,也可連接於一個金屬絞鍊結構與鼻墊之間,可視需求不同而改變;至於該外加可導電部分的設置方式,同樣是可依眼鏡結構而有所不同,例如,可以是隱藏於鏡框單元內側的金屬線、金屬薄膜等,只要可以連接至金屬絞鍊結構的設計,皆為可行。 Alternatively, the frame unit can be used to carry the electrically conductive portion. For example, the frame unit of one type of eyeglass structure is made of a non-conductive material, for example, a rubber material, in which case a metal can be used to achieve the metal. The connection of the hinge structure, for example, the additional conductive portion may be connected between the two metal hinge structures, or may be connected between a metal hinge structure and a nose pad, and may be changed according to different requirements; as for the externally conductive Part of the arrangement can also be different depending on the structure of the glasses. For example, it can be a metal wire hidden inside the frame unit, a metal film, etc., as long as it can be connected to the design of the metal hinge structure.

在上述的這些可能中,剛好符合現今市面上最常被使用者使用的幾種眼鏡型態,一是金屬材質眼鏡,另一則是醋酸纖維材質或賽璐珞材質眼鏡,其中,金屬材質眼鏡是以金屬材質為主,亦即,利用金屬材質作為眼鏡的支撐主體結構,而為了視覺效果、造型變化等,則有可能再於金屬材質外設置其他材質,例如,膠類材質,但一般而言,金屬材質眼鏡的整體皆是由金屬材質所製成,包括鏡框單元,鏡腳,以及用以接合鏡框單元以及鏡腳的絞鍊結構。 Among the above possibilities, it is just in line with the most commonly used types of glasses on the market today, one is metal glasses, the other is acetate or celluloid glasses, among which metal glasses are made of metal. The material is mainly used, that is, the metal material is used as the supporting main structure of the glasses, and for visual effects, modeling changes, etc., it is possible to provide other materials other than the metal material, for example, a rubber material, but generally, metal The overall material of the material glasses is made of metal material, including a frame unit, a temple, and a hinge structure for joining the frame unit and the temple.

至於醋酸纖維材質或賽璐珞材質眼鏡,正如前述,則是在其既有的製程中已有於此類材質中置入金屬部件的步驟,例如,會於此類鏡框中利用夾設或嵌入等方式置入鏡框金屬部件,或是於此類鏡腳中插入或嵌 入鏡腳金屬部件等,而此製程的其中一個目的則是在加強眼鏡結構的機械強度,因此,用來置入眼鏡結構中的金屬部件多會具有支撐的作用。而在這樣的前提下,只要該等置入的金屬部件與金屬絞鍊結構是相連接的,即使是一般常見的醋酸纖維材質或賽璐珞材質眼鏡,也可直接利用眼鏡中原有的金屬部件來作為可導電部分,以達成電極與電路系統間的電連接。 As for the acetate or celluloid glasses, as mentioned above, the steps of placing metal parts in such materials have been made in the existing processes, for example, by means of clamping or embedding in such frames. Inserting or inserting a metal part of the frame into the frame, and one of the purposes of the process is to strengthen the mechanical strength of the lens structure and, therefore, for placement in the lens structure. Metal parts will have a supporting effect. Under such a premise, as long as the metal parts to be placed are connected to the metal hinge structure, even the commonly used acetate or celluloid glasses can directly use the original metal parts in the glasses. Conductive portion to achieve electrical connection between the electrode and the circuitry.

而通常,當鏡框中具有做為支撐的金屬部件時,該金屬絞鍊結構多已直接形成於該金屬部件上,以及該金屬部件上亦常常已具有用以設置鼻墊的金屬延伸件,因此,根據實際結構的不同,如此之具金屬部件的鏡框單元本身已具有從一端的金屬絞鍊結構傳電至另一端的金屬絞鍊結構、或是從一端的金屬絞鍊結構傳電至鼻墊的能力(只需更換上可導電的鼻墊),也就是,這樣的鏡框單元可直接被用於生理檢測,無須為了達成電連接而再行於鏡框單元上進行加工,如此一來,一般消費者於日常生活中使用的眼鏡就可拿來取得生理訊號,完全顛覆了現今以眼鏡作為基礎之生理檢測裝置的既有概念。 Generally, when the frame has a metal component as a support, the metal hinge structure is formed directly on the metal component, and the metal component often has a metal extension for setting the nose pad. According to the actual structure, the frame unit of such a metal component itself has a metal hinge structure that transmits electricity from one end of the metal hinge structure to the other end, or transmits electricity from one end of the metal hinge structure to the nose pad. Ability (just replace the conductive nose pad), that is, such a frame unit can be directly used for physiological detection, no need to be processed on the frame unit in order to achieve electrical connection, thus, general consumption The glasses used in daily life can be used to obtain physiological signals, completely overturning the existing concept of glasses-based physiological testing devices.

因此,由上可知,透過本發明的概念,目前市面上最廣為接受的兩種眼鏡,都可在不改變正面外觀的情形下,達成設置於鏡框單元上的電極與金屬絞鍊結構間的電連接。 Therefore, it can be seen from the above that through the concept of the present invention, the two glasses which are currently the most widely accepted on the market can achieve the arrangement between the electrode and the metal hinge structure disposed on the frame unit without changing the front appearance. Electrical connection.

再進一步地,當鏡框單元中的電極已連接至一側的金屬絞鍊結構後,該金屬絞鍊結構則需再連接至設置於鏡腳上的電路系統。 Still further, after the electrodes in the frame unit have been connected to the metal hinge structure on one side, the metal hinge structure is then reconnected to the circuitry disposed on the temples.

其中一種選擇是,利用鏡腳中的可導電部分來達成連接。舉例而言,如前所述,金屬材質眼鏡的鏡腳會直接採用金屬部件,以及醋酸纖維或賽璐珞材質眼鏡的鏡腳中亦常插入或嵌入金屬部件作為支撐、或造型 變化,而只要這些設計中鏡腳金屬部件實施為連接至、或是包含上述金屬絞鍊結構中的該與鏡腳相接的金屬件,則金屬絞鍊結構就可自然地連接至位於鏡腳上電路系統。 One option is to use the electrically conductive portion of the temple to achieve the connection. For example, as mentioned above, metal temples use metal parts directly on the temples, and metal parts are often inserted or embedded in the temples of acetate or celluloid glasses as support or modeling changes, as long as these designs The metal temple structure is connected to or includes the metal member in the metal hinge structure that is connected to the temple, and the metal hinge structure is naturally connected to the circuit system on the temple.

在此,需注意地是,基於不同眼鏡設計及製程差異,只要是在製造眼鏡結構的過程中,於鏡腳中放入連接至金屬絞鍊結構之可導電部分者,皆屬本發明所欲闡述的標的,不限任何形式,例如,可能是金屬線、或是硬式或軟式電路板,也可能是具有造型的金屬鏡腳,或是作為支撐的金屬部件等,同樣沒有限制。 Here, it should be noted that, based on different eyeglass design and process differences, as long as it is in the process of manufacturing the eyeglass structure, the conductive portion connected to the metal hinge structure is placed in the temple, which is desired by the present invention. The stated subject matter is not limited to any form, for example, it may be a metal wire, or a hard or flexible circuit board, or may be a metal temple with a shape, or a metal member as a support, etc., and there is no limitation.

另外一種選擇是,利用鏡腳來承載該可導電部分。舉例而言,其中一種種類眼鏡結構的鏡腳是由非導電材質所製成,例如,單純由膠類材質製成者,在此情形下,可利用外加可導電部分的方式而達成金屬絞鍊結構與電極及電路系統的連接;至於該外加可導電部分的設置方式,同樣可依眼鏡結構不同而改變,例如,可以是隱藏於鏡腳內側的金屬線、金屬薄膜等,只要達成金屬絞鍊結構與位於鏡腳上的電路系統間的連接即可,沒有限制。 Alternatively, the temples can be used to carry the electrically conductive portion. For example, the temple of one type of eyeglass structure is made of a non-conductive material, for example, a rubber material, in which case a metal hinge can be achieved by applying a conductive portion. The connection between the structure and the electrode and the circuit system; as for the arrangement of the externally conductive portion, the same can be changed according to the structure of the glasses, for example, a metal wire hidden in the inner side of the temple, a metal film, etc., as long as the metal hinge is achieved. The structure is connected to the circuitry located on the temples without restrictions.

在此,特別地是,由於使用金屬絞鍊結構來接合鏡框單元以及鏡腳的關係,也因此使得鏡腳可以進行更換,故在此情形下,就可實施為利用更換鏡腳的方式來獲得與金屬絞鍊結構、電極、以及電路系統的連接,而這樣的方式則特別有利於已於正面鏡框單元中具有可導電部分的眼鏡結構,如圖3D所示者,圖中,該眼鏡結構的鼻墊122,124已形成為金屬材質,且該鏡框單元中已包含連接於兩金屬絞鍊結構18間以及連接至鼻墊的金屬部件32,因此,此時,只要透過更換鏡腳的方式,例如,換上在鏡腳表面 設置有一電極,以及於鏡腳中設有電路系統以及連接至電極以及金屬鏡腳結構的線路的新鏡腳,就可讓原本普通常見的眼鏡結構,立即獲得電生理訊號的擷取功能,而且,重要地是,由於相對於位於臉部正面的鏡框單元,鏡腳是配戴時視覺上較不明顯的部分,因此,眼鏡的造型效果不會被影響,再加上,鏡腳不牽涉眼鏡最主要的功能一鏡片設置,故絕對是相當具有優勢的一種方式。 Here, in particular, since the relationship between the frame unit and the temple is used by using the metal hinge structure, the temple can be replaced, and in this case, it can be implemented by replacing the temple. The connection with the metal hinge structure, the electrode, and the circuit system, and such a manner is particularly advantageous for the eyeglass structure having the conductive portion in the front frame unit, as shown in FIG. 3D, in which the lens structure is The nose pads 122, 124 have been formed of a metal material, and the frame unit has included a metal member 32 connected between the two metal hinge structures 18 and connected to the nose pad. Therefore, at this time, as long as the temples are replaced, For example, replacing the electrode with an electrode on the surface of the temple and a new temple with a circuit system and a circuit connected to the electrode and the metal temple structure allows the original common eyeglass structure to be immediately powered. The function of capturing physiological signals, and, importantly, because the frame legs are visually less visible when worn relative to the frame unit located on the front of the face, Therefore, the styling effect of the glasses will not be affected. In addition, the temples do not involve the most important function of the glasses, but it is definitely a way to have advantages.

再者,除了將電極設置於鼻墊以及單側鏡腳的方式外,亦可將電極設置於二側的鏡腳,或是增加電極的數量,於鼻墊及兩側鏡腳上皆設置電極,同樣可取得腦電訊號及/或眼電訊號,其中,當兩側鏡腳上皆設置有電極時,則需要透過兩個金屬絞鍊結構來達成電極與電路系統間的連接,亦即,鏡框單元以及兩側鏡腳中皆須有可導電部分連接至金屬絞鍊結構,另外,電路系統則可具選擇地僅設置於單側鏡腳,或者也分散地設置於兩側鏡腳,其中,當電路系統分散於兩側鏡腳時,則每一側的鏡腳可導電部分皆須達成該側金屬絞鍊結構與該側電路系統的連接,而在此情形下,如上所述地,當然也可實施為兩隻鏡腳皆進行更換的方式。 Furthermore, in addition to the way in which the electrodes are placed on the nose pad and the single-sided temples, the electrodes may be placed on the temples on both sides, or the number of electrodes may be increased, and electrodes may be provided on the nose pads and the temples on both sides. EEG signals and/or EO signals can also be obtained. When electrodes are provided on both sides of the temples, it is necessary to realize the connection between the electrodes and the circuit system through two metal hinge structures, that is, The frame unit and the temples on both sides must have a conductive portion connected to the metal hinge structure. In addition, the circuit system can be selectively disposed only on the one-side temple or dispersedly disposed on both sides of the temple. When the circuit system is dispersed on the mirror legs on both sides, the conductive portion of the temple on each side must be connected to the side metal structure and the side circuit system, and in this case, as described above, Of course, it is also possible to implement a method in which both temples are replaced.

而且,電極除了上述的設置選擇外,亦可有其他的設置方式,以取得其他的生理訊號,舉例而言,可於鏡腳上設置可供使用者上肢接觸的電極,而透過這樣的方式,則是可利用接觸頭部的電極以及接觸上肢的電極而取得心電訊號,在此,特別地是,供上肢接觸的該個電極,除了可另外設置外,亦可採用與腦電電極共用的方式,例如,可由鏡腳內側的電極向外延伸而形成,或是也可以是該腦電電極直接形成設置於內側及外側為連續面,並且,可實施為與其中一腦電電極並聯或串聯,而由於腦電訊 號以及心電訊號的振幅差異明顯,即使共用亦不影響訊號的判斷。 Moreover, in addition to the above-mentioned setting options, the electrodes may have other arrangement modes for obtaining other physiological signals. For example, electrodes for contacting the upper limbs of the user may be disposed on the temples, and in this way, The electrocardiographic signal can be obtained by using the electrode contacting the head and the electrode contacting the upper limb. Here, in particular, the electrode for contacting the upper limb can be used in addition to the electroencephalogram electrode. The method may be formed, for example, by extending outward from the electrode on the inner side of the temple, or the electroencephalogram electrode may be directly formed on the inner side and the outer side as a continuous surface, and may be implemented in parallel or in series with one of the electroencephalogram electrodes. Because the amplitude difference between the EEG signal and the ECG signal is obvious, even if the sharing does not affect the judgment of the signal.

或者,也可在鏡腳上增設電極,例如,單側鏡腳上設置彼此相隔,例如,相隔一英吋,的二個電極,以額外取得皮膚電訊號,另一方面,這樣的兩個電極亦可取得電極附近的局部肌電訊號、腦電訊號、以及眼電訊號;或者,更進一步地,也可在鏡腳或鏡框上設置光感測器,以自頭部取得血液生理訊號,例如,脈波訊號,血氧濃度等;或是也可設置動作感測元件,例如,加速度器(Accelerometer),陀螺儀(gyroscope),磁感測器(Magnetic sensor),以獲得使用者的身體移動資訊。因此,可以有各種選擇,沒有限制。 Alternatively, electrodes may be added to the temples. For example, the single-sided temples are provided with two electrodes spaced apart from each other, for example, one inch apart, to additionally obtain skin electrical signals. On the other hand, such two electrodes Local electromyography signals, EEG signals, and EO signals near the electrodes can also be obtained; or, further, a photo sensor can be placed on the temples or frames to obtain blood physiological signals from the head, such as , pulse signal, blood oxygen concentration, etc.; or motion sensing elements, such as Accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetic sensor, to obtain the user's body movement News. Therefore, there are various options and no restrictions.

其中,一個特別的實施方式是,根據申請人的研究結果顯示,可利用於眼鏡結構上設置電極來取得眼眶額葉皮質(orbitofrontal cortex)的活動,進而取得腦電訊號。眼眶額葉皮質是屬於前額葉的一部分,位置偏下,接近眼眶,因此,當電極被設置於鼻墊上、或是鏡框單元的上緣時,能夠偵測到其活動情形,而另一方面,由於鼻墊、鏡框單元上緣等電極設置位置亦接近眼睛,也因此,這樣的電極設置亦會取得眼電訊號。 Among them, a special embodiment is that, according to the research results of the applicant, it is possible to use an electrode provided on the structure of the eyeglass to obtain the activity of the orbitofrontal cortex, thereby obtaining an electroencephalogram signal. The orbital frontal cortex is part of the prefrontal cortex, located lower than the eyelid. Therefore, when the electrode is placed on the nose pad or the upper edge of the frame unit, its activity can be detected. Since the electrodes are positioned close to the eyes, such as the nose pad and the upper edge of the frame unit, such an electrode arrangement also obtains an EOG signal.

在此情形下,當配合上另一個電極時,例如,可設置於一側鏡腳上,設置於鏡框單元上,或是延伸設置於耳朵上,就可取得混合眼眶額葉皮質活動以及眼睛活動的電生理訊號,而由於眼電訊號以及腦電訊號的訊號強度以及訊號特徵有一定程度的差異,因此,只要透過對此電生理訊號進行處理,例如,移除眼電訊號,就可獲得眼眶額葉皮質的腦電訊號。 In this case, when the other electrode is fitted, for example, it can be placed on one side of the temple, placed on the frame unit, or extended on the ear to obtain mixed eyelid frontal cortex activity and eye activity. Electrophysiological signals, because of the difference in signal strength and signal characteristics of EEG signals and EEG signals, as long as the electrophysiological signals are processed, for example, the EEG signals are removed, the eyelids can be obtained. EEG signals in the frontal cortex.

而由於大腦皮質活動有同步的傾向,因此,該眼眶額葉皮質的腦電訊號就可被用來作為判斷大腦意識狀態的參考依據。 Because the cerebral cortex activity has a tendency to synchronize, the brain electrical signal of the frontal cortex of the eye can be used as a reference for judging the state of brain consciousness.

一般而言,腦部電活動的測量方式分為兩種,參考組合範式(reference montage)以及雙極組合範式(bipolar montage)。在參考組合範式中,常見地是將參考電極設置於沒有大腦皮質電活動的位置,而活動偵測電極則被設置於對應特定大腦皮質上方的頭骨位置,以相對於參考電極而取得腦波,進而得知局部大腦皮質的活動情形,至於雙極組合範式則是透過兩個位置的大腦電活動電位差而取得腦波,因此,通常,是根據需求的不同而決定要採用的組合範式。另外,無論何種組合範式,常會設置一接地電極(Ground),以排除背景雜訊,例如,電磁干擾,但亦有些電路設計可免除設置接地電極,可視實際需求而選擇,故在本發明的敘述中,有關電極的設置位置,主要以用來取得腦波的兩個電極為主。 In general, there are two ways to measure brain electrical activity, including reference montage and bipolar montage. In the reference combination paradigm, it is common to set the reference electrode to a position where there is no electrical activity of the cerebral cortex, and the activity detecting electrode is disposed at a position corresponding to the skull above the specific cerebral cortex to obtain a brain wave with respect to the reference electrode. Furthermore, the activity of the local cerebral cortex is known. As for the bipolar combination paradigm, the brain wave is obtained through the potential difference of the brain electrical activity at two locations. Therefore, it is usually determined according to the demand that the combination paradigm to be adopted. In addition, regardless of the combination paradigm, a ground electrode (Ground) is often provided to eliminate background noise, for example, electromagnetic interference, but some circuit designs can eliminate the need to provide a ground electrode, which can be selected according to actual needs, so in the present invention In the description, the position of the electrodes is mainly based on two electrodes for obtaining brain waves.

因此,當以眼鏡結構承載電極時,例如,兩個電極分別接觸頭部兩側,或是兩個電極分別接觸鼻梁以及頭部一側時,可視為是一種雙極組合範式。 Therefore, when the electrode is carried by the spectacles structure, for example, when the two electrodes respectively contact the sides of the head, or when the two electrodes respectively contact the bridge of the nose and the side of the head, it can be regarded as a bipolar combination paradigm.

而除了一般可想見的頭骨上電極接觸位置外,申請人經研究發現,尚有其他的接觸位置亦適合用來取得電生理訊號,尤其是腦電訊號。 In addition to the generally conceivable position of the electrode on the skull, the applicant has found that other contact positions are also suitable for obtaining electrophysiological signals, especially EEG signals.

請參考第5A圖,其為大腦皮質於頭顱中位置以及與耳廓位置的示意圖,由圖中可看出,大腦皮質落在頭顱的上半部,耳廓(auricle,亦稱為pinna)則是位在頭顱的兩側,並突出於頭顱外,其中,大致而言,以耳道(ear canal)為分隔,大腦皮質大致落在上半部耳廓的內側。而申請人經實驗後發現,可於耳廓部分的偏上方部分測得良好腦波訊號,而越往下方則腦電訊號越弱,在觀察頭部的生理構造後,應是因為上方耳廓所對應的頭顱內部正是大腦皮質的位置,故在此情形下,透過頭骨、耳軟骨的傳遞, 就可在耳廓的上部測得腦波,而下部的耳廓則因距離大腦皮質較遠,再加上耳道的間隔,因此,越往下方的腦電訊號強度即變得越弱。舉例而言,耳屏(tragus),對耳屏(antitragus),耳屏間切跡(intertragic notch)等位置,由於在生理構造上,同樣是屬於突出於頭顱外的耳廓部分,且位置下方無大腦皮質,故屬於適合設置參考電極的位置。 Please refer to Figure 5A, which is a schematic diagram of the position of the cerebral cortex in the skull and the position of the auricle. It can be seen from the figure that the cerebral cortex falls in the upper part of the skull, and the auricle (also known as pinna) It is located on both sides of the skull and protrudes beyond the skull. In general, it is separated by the ear canal, which is roughly inside the upper auricle. The applicant found through the experiment that a good brain wave signal can be measured in the upper part of the auricle part, and the lower the EEG signal is, the lower the physiological structure of the head is, because the upper auricle is observed. The corresponding inside of the skull is the location of the cerebral cortex, so in this case, through the transmission of the skull and ear cartilage, the brain wave can be measured in the upper part of the auricle, while the lower auricle is farther away from the cerebral cortex. With the interval of the ear canal, the intensity of the EEG signal becomes weaker. For example, the tragus, the antitragus, the intertragic notch, etc., because of the physiological structure, also belong to the auricle part protruding beyond the skull, and there is no position below the position. The cerebral cortex is a suitable location for setting the reference electrode.

一般眼鏡在穿戴時,除了鼻墊會接觸鼻梁、山根、及/或兩眼間區域,眼鏡腳的前段會接觸太陽穴附近外,眼鏡腳後段則是會接觸耳廓與頭顱間的V型凹陷區域,以及眼鏡腳落在耳廓後方的部分會接觸耳廓後方的皮膚、乳突骨等位置,其中,V型凹陷以及耳廓後方正好符合上述耳朵上可取得腦電訊號的位置,因此,不同於一般認為需將腦電電極設置於具有大腦皮質的頭骨位置上的概念,申請人發現,即使將電極設置於耳廓上,同樣能夠取得腦電訊號,也因此更適合由眼鏡結構來設置電極,尤其,一般V型凹陷正是鏡腳架設的位置,而耳廓背面則可透過增加鏡腳末端的彎曲度而達成接觸,實施上皆相當具有優勢。 When the glasses are worn, except for the nose pads, which will contact the bridge of the nose, the roots, and/or the eyes, the front of the temples will contact the vicinity of the temples, and the rear of the temples will contact the V-shaped depressions between the auricle and the skull. And the portion of the temple that falls behind the auricle contacts the skin behind the auricle, the mastoid bone, etc., wherein the V-shaped depression and the rear of the auricle coincide with the position on the ear where the EEG signal can be obtained, and therefore, In view of the general idea that the EEG electrode needs to be placed in the position of the skull with the cerebral cortex, the Applicant has found that even if the electrode is placed on the auricle, the EEG signal can be obtained, and therefore it is more suitable to set the electrode by the eyeglass structure. In particular, the general V-shaped recess is the position where the temples are erected, and the back of the auricle can be contacted by increasing the curvature of the ends of the temples, which is quite advantageous in implementation.

如圖5B所示,該V型凹陷位於耳廓以及頭顱之間,其包括頭顱部分501,耳廓部分502,以及作為連接的連接部分503,因而構成恰好適合讓物體放置於耳廓與頭顱之間的生理結構,在此情況下,耳廓與頭顱會自然地提供將物體夾設於中間的力量,甚至,當物體體積足夠及/或形狀吻合時,物體還可被嵌於/塞於耳廓與頭顱間,達到更好的固定效果。然而,在此需注意地是,由於耳廓與頭顱間的交界是一連續的曲線,因此,V型凹陷並無特定的範圍限制,只要是鏡腳設置於耳廓上時,其結構所能夠接觸的範圍皆屬本案所稱之V型凹陷的範圍,例如,當鏡腳末端的彎曲幅度剛好符 合時,V型凹陷的範圍即較大,或者,也有鏡腳的末端造型為無彎曲,則此時,V型凹陷的範圍即較小,故沒有限制。 As shown in Fig. 5B, the V-shaped depression is located between the auricle and the skull, and includes a skull portion 501, an auricle portion 502, and a connecting portion 503 as a connection, thus constituting a shape suitable for placing an object on the auricle and the skull. Between the physiological structure, in this case, the auricle and the skull will naturally provide the force to sandwich the object in the middle, even when the object is of sufficient volume and / or shape, the object can be embedded / embedded in the ear Achieve a better fixation between the profile and the skull. However, it should be noted here that since the boundary between the auricle and the skull is a continuous curve, there is no specific limitation of the V-shaped depression, and the structure can be configured as long as the temple is placed on the auricle. The range of contact is the range of the V-shaped recess referred to in the present case. For example, when the bending amplitude of the end of the temple is just the same, the range of the V-shaped depression is large, or the end of the temple is not curved. At this time, the range of the V-shaped recess is small, so there is no limitation.

而當鏡腳放置於此區域時,可選擇地接觸三個部分501-503的任一部分,然而,由於物體定會受到重力,一般而言,位於下方的連接部分503是最容易接觸的位置,再者,根據每個使用者配戴眼鏡的習慣不同,可能會再增加與頭顱部分501及/或耳廓部分502的接觸,而無論何種情形,只要選擇地是適合自己的眼鏡,所達成的接觸皆可相當穩定,如此一來,輕鬆就可取得生理訊號。 When the temple is placed in this area, any part of the three portions 501-503 can be selectively contacted. However, since the object is subject to gravity, generally, the lower connecting portion 503 is the most accessible position. Furthermore, depending on the habit of wearing glasses for each user, contact with the skull portion 501 and/or the auricle portion 502 may be increased, and in any case, as long as the glasses are suitable for oneself, the achievement is achieved. The contact can be quite stable, so that physiological signals can be easily obtained.

然而,特別地是,只要電極設置位置經過設計,同樣能夠利用參考組合範式而取得腦電訊號,例如,將一個電極設置於鼻梁、或一側鏡腳上接觸頭顱部分501的位置,再將一個電極設置於另一側鏡腳上接觸耳廓部分502的位置作為參考電極,此時,由於相對於下方具有大腦皮質的鼻梁、或頭顱部分,耳廓部分將是大腦皮質活動相對而言較低的位置,故就可利用參考組合範式而取得腦電訊號及/或眼電訊號;或者,也可將兩個電極皆設置於同側鏡腳上,利用一個電極接觸耳廓背面下方遠離大腦皮質的位置而作為參考電極,則另一個電極只需接觸耳廓背面上方、V型凹陷、或是頭部側面等接近大腦皮質的位置,同樣能夠利用參考組合範式而取得腦電訊號。 However, in particular, as long as the electrode placement position is designed, the electroencephalogram signal can also be obtained by using the reference combination paradigm, for example, an electrode is placed on the bridge of the nose or on one side of the temple to contact the position of the skull portion 501, and then one The electrode is disposed on the other side of the temple to contact the auricle portion 502 as a reference electrode. At this time, the auricle portion will be relatively low in cerebral cortex activity due to the nasal bridge or the skull portion having the cerebral cortex below. Position, so you can use the reference combination paradigm to obtain EEG signals and / or EO signals; or you can also set both electrodes on the same side of the temples, using an electrode to contact the lower back of the auricle away from the cerebral cortex As the reference electrode, the other electrode only needs to contact the position of the cerebral cortex, such as the V-shaped depression or the side of the head, which is close to the back of the auricle. The reference combination paradigm can also be used to obtain the EEG signal.

故當根據本發明而利用眼鏡結構承載腦電電極時,所取得的腦電訊號不受限於經由何種組合範式取得,兩種組合範式皆為可行的方式。 Therefore, when the electroencephalographic electrode is carried by the spectacles structure according to the present invention, the obtained EEG signals are not limited to which combination paradigm is obtained, and both combinations are feasible.

進一步地,為了讓設置於鏡腳表面的電極能夠在V型凹陷位置有良好的接觸,還可透過設計鏡腳的結構,再配合電極的設置位置而達成。 舉例而言,如圖6A所示,當鏡腳的剖面結構實施為類似方形的結構時,可將電極20設置於該方形的下表面,以自然地因為重力而接觸該V型凹陷的連接部分;或者,如圖6B所示,該鏡腳也可形成為類似D型的結構,如此一來,透過將電極20設置於D型結構的曲面上,就提供了讓電極接觸V型凹陷的連接部分503以及頭顱部分501的可能;或者,如上所述,希望作為參考電極時,則可將電極設置於接觸頭顱部分501的位置;或者,也可將D型結構實施為曲面朝下,以增加電極與三個部分的接觸機率,因此,可以有各種選擇,可依實際需求而改變。 Further, in order to allow the electrode disposed on the surface of the temple to have good contact at the V-shaped recessed position, it can also be achieved by designing the structure of the temple and matching the position of the electrode. For example, as shown in FIG. 6A, when the cross-sectional structure of the temple is implemented as a square-like structure, the electrode 20 may be disposed on the lower surface of the square to naturally contact the connecting portion of the V-shaped recess due to gravity. Or, as shown in FIG. 6B, the temple can also be formed in a D-like structure. Thus, by arranging the electrode 20 on the curved surface of the D-shaped structure, the connection for contacting the V-shaped recess is provided. The portion 503 and the skull portion 501 are possible; or, as described above, when it is desired as a reference electrode, the electrode may be placed at a position contacting the skull portion 501; alternatively, the D-shaped structure may be implemented as a curved surface facing down to Increasing the contact probability of the electrode with the three parts, therefore, there are various options, which can be changed according to actual needs.

而同樣地,光感測器也適合設置於上述的V型凹陷位置。一般而言,光感測器的設置位置,可以是眼鏡結構與頭部接觸的任何位置,例如,鼻墊上與兩眼間區域、鼻梁、山根等位置接觸,或是鏡腳上與頭部側面、耳朵及/或耳朵附近區域接觸,而其中,尤其具有優勢的接觸位置就是,耳朵與頭顱間的V型凹陷,並且,基於重力的影響,又以該連接部分503的設置最為穩定,然而,由於光感測器所取得生理訊號在取樣位置上限制較小,通常只需能偵測到血流變化的位置即可,故無論是該連接部分503,該頭顱部分501,或是該耳廓部分502皆是可設置光感測器的位置,沒有限制。 Similarly, the photo sensor is also suitable for being disposed at the V-shaped recessed position described above. In general, the position of the photo sensor can be any position where the lens structure is in contact with the head, for example, the contact on the nose pad with the area between the eyes, the bridge of the nose, the root of the mountain, or the side of the temple and the side of the head. The ear and/or the area near the ear are in contact, and among them, the particularly advantageous contact position is the V-shaped depression between the ear and the skull, and based on the influence of gravity, the setting of the connecting portion 503 is most stable, however, Since the physiological signal obtained by the photo sensor has a small restriction on the sampling position, it is usually only necessary to detect the position of the blood flow change, so whether the connection portion 503, the skull portion 501, or the auricle Portion 502 is the location where the photosensor can be set, without limitation.

另一方面,由於眼鏡實施為穿戴形式,因此,如何在輕鬆穿戴的情形下,仍維持設置於其表面的電極與皮膚間的有效接觸,將是影響穿戴形式能否成功的關鍵。關於此點,本發明進一步於電極上增設一接觸確保結構,以克服穿戴眼鏡時可能過到的接觸問題,例如,毛髮遮蔽,接觸面彎曲,可能隨著身體移動而產生位移等各種問題,以及因個體差異所產生的接觸位置不同。 On the other hand, since the glasses are implemented in a wearable form, how to maintain effective contact between the electrodes disposed on the surface and the skin in the case of easy wear is the key to the success of the wearing form. In this regard, the present invention further adds a contact securing structure to the electrode to overcome the contact problems that may occur when the glasses are worn, for example, hair shading, bending of the contact surface, possible displacement due to body movement, and the like, and The location of contact due to individual differences is different.

另外,還有可能遇到的另一個問題是,由於每一個人自頭部正面至耳朵的距離皆不同,因此,如何能夠讓眼鏡結構即使配戴於不同使用者頭上,其鏡腳上的電極仍能接觸到目標的接觸位置,例如,耳朵上方附近,耳朵與頭顱間交界等的無毛髮位置,也是需要考量的問題。 In addition, another problem that may be encountered is that since each person has a different distance from the front of the head to the ear, how can the eyeglass structure be worn on the temples even if worn on different user heads? Contacting the target's contact position, for example, near the top of the ear, the hair-free position between the ear and the skull, is also a problem to be considered.

該接觸確保結構則可有各種實施可能,舉例而言,如圖7A所示,可將一個電極形成為分散的多個接觸點21,例如,實施為彼此並聯,如此一來,無論哪個接觸點被接觸,皆可被視為電極與皮膚間的接觸已完成,相當方便,而這尤其適合設置於具有彎曲度的接觸面,或是可能產生輕微移動的情形,或是用來克服不同使用者的頭部與耳朵間距離的差異,進一步更具優勢地是,可將各個分散接觸點實施為具可伸縮性,例如,如圖7B所示,採用彈簧頂針的形式,以進一步確保接觸的達成,例如,可實施為皮膚與電極的接觸是透過對彈簧頂針產生壓縮而達成的方式,如此一來,即使皮膚與電極間出現小距離位移,亦可藉由彈簧頂針的伸縮彈性而克服。 The contact securing structure can have various implementation possibilities. For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, one electrode can be formed as a plurality of dispersed contact points 21, for example, in parallel with each other, so that no matter which contact point Being contacted can be regarded as the contact between the electrode and the skin has been completed, which is quite convenient, and this is especially suitable for setting on a curved contact surface, or may cause slight movement, or to overcome different users. The difference in distance between the head and the ear is further advantageous in that each of the discrete contact points can be implemented to be scalable, for example, as shown in FIG. 7B, in the form of a spring thimble to further ensure contact is achieved. For example, it can be implemented that the contact between the skin and the electrode is achieved by compressing the spring ejector pin, so that even if a small distance displacement between the skin and the electrode occurs, the elastic force of the spring thimble can be overcome.

另外,如圖7C-7D所示,亦可實施為同一個電極部件23上具有多個凸起的形式,例如,可直接將電極片形成為具有多個凸起(圖7C),或者,也可實施為電極片中具有多個可伸縮的凸起(圖7D)等,可以是各種形式,此同樣有助於增加皮膚與電極間的接觸。 In addition, as shown in FIG. 7C-7D, it may also be implemented in the form of a plurality of protrusions on the same electrode member 23, for example, the electrode sheet may be directly formed to have a plurality of protrusions (FIG. 7C), or It can be implemented as a plurality of retractable protrusions (Fig. 7D) and the like in the electrode sheet, and can be in various forms, which also contributes to an increase in skin-to-electrode contact.

再者,亦可將電極實施為懸浮形式,例如,如圖7E所示,將伸縮結構,如彈簧頂針,設置於電極下方,如此一來,因應接觸面的改變,電極除了可以有垂直方向的伸縮外,亦可利用下方彈簧頂針作為支點而產生角度的改變,對於適應接觸位置的形狀有相當的幫助;且更進一步,採用懸浮形式的電極的表面上亦可形成有凸起,例如,結合實施圖7C-7D以及 圖7E,而讓接觸的達成更為容易。 Furthermore, the electrode may also be implemented in a suspended form. For example, as shown in FIG. 7E, a telescopic structure, such as a spring ejector, is disposed under the electrode, so that the electrode may have a vertical direction in response to a change in the contact surface. In addition to telescoping, the change of the angle can also be made by using the lower spring thimble as a fulcrum, which is quite helpful for adapting the shape of the contact position; and further, the surface of the electrode in suspension form can also be formed with protrusions, for example, combined Figures 7C-7D and 7E are implemented to make contact achievement easier.

在此,需注意地是,上述的接觸確保結構可以實施在眼鏡結構的任何位置,例如,可以是接觸鼻梁、接觸耳朵後方、耳朵上方、頭部後方等位置,皆為可行,不受限制。 Here, it should be noted that the above-mentioned contact ensuring structure can be implemented at any position of the spectacles structure, for example, it can be contact with the bridge of the nose, contact behind the ear, above the ear, behind the head, etc., all of which are feasible and not limited.

而除了上述的方式外,針對接觸耳朵與頭顱間的交界位置,有一種更為簡單的一種實施方式,如圖7F所示,在此較佳實施例中,鏡腳上的電極20被形成為大範圍分布的長形電極,而透過這樣的方式,就可將不同使用者間可能產生的尺寸差異涵蓋在內,即使單一種眼鏡尺寸,也可以適應不同的使用者,這對製作而言,是相當有利的一個選擇。 In addition to the above, there is a simpler embodiment for contacting the interface between the ear and the skull, as shown in Fig. 7F. In the preferred embodiment, the electrode 20 on the temple is formed as Large-scale distribution of long electrodes, in this way, can cover the size differences that may occur between different users, even a single size of glasses, can be adapted to different users, which for production, It is a very advantageous option.

至於該長形電極的分布範圍,則沒有一定的限制,可依實際需求的不同而有所改變,其中,較佳地是,形成為大於2公分的長度,例如,在鏡腳上設置長度大於2公分的不銹鋼片作為電極;另外,此大範圍的分布亦可由上述的接觸確保結構來達成,例如,擴大多個凸起、伸縮結構的分布範圍,或在整片電極上設置凸起,或是整片電極有多個懸浮支撐點等,以進一步增加接觸的穩定性。 As for the distribution range of the elongated electrode, there is no limitation, and it may be changed according to actual needs. Among them, it is preferably formed to a length greater than 2 cm, for example, a length greater than a length is set on the temple. 2 cm of stainless steel is used as the electrode; in addition, this wide range of distribution can also be achieved by the above-mentioned contact securing structure, for example, expanding the distribution range of a plurality of protrusions, telescopic structures, or providing protrusions on the entire electrode, or It is a plurality of suspension support points of the entire electrode to further increase the stability of the contact.

在另一較佳實施例中,電極被實施為可在鏡腳上移動的形式,如此一來,當配戴於不同使用者頭部時,就可因應每個人尺寸的差異而進行電極位置的調整,以準確地接觸到欲接觸的位置,同樣是具優勢的選擇。 In another preferred embodiment, the electrodes are implemented in a form movable on the temples such that when worn on different user's heads, the position of the electrodes can be made in response to differences in the size of each person. Adjustments to accurately reach the location to be contacted are also an advantageous choice.

在實施時,如圖7G-7J所示,眼鏡鏡腳上用來設置電極的耳朵接觸部分,實施為具有一調整機制(adjustment mechanism)22,以使得電極可在鏡腳上產生位置的改變,如此一來,就可準確地對準欲取得生理訊號的位置,例如,耳朵與頭顱交界處的無毛髮位置,另外,該耳朵接觸部 分還可進一步實施為符合耳廓背面的曲線,以更穩定的設置,也有助於設置於其上的生理感測元件進行訊號擷取。 In implementation, as shown in Figures 7G-7J, the ear contact portion on the temple temple for providing the electrode is implemented with an adjustment mechanism 22 such that the electrode can change position on the temple. In this way, the position where the physiological signal is to be obtained can be accurately aligned, for example, the hairless position at the boundary between the ear and the skull, and the ear contact portion can be further implemented to conform to the curve of the back of the auricle to be more stable. The setting also helps the physiological sensing component disposed thereon to perform signal acquisition.

其中,圖7G顯示該耳朵接觸部分直接實施為鏡腳的一部分,而圖7H則顯示該耳朵接觸部分實施為與鏡腳相結合的形式,且進一步具有相符於耳廓背面的曲線,至於該調整機構則有許多的實施選擇,舉例而言,可實施為滑動機構,例如,設置軌道,如圖7G所示,以讓電極於軌道中移動,而軌道內的移動方式,則可實施為分段或無段移動,沒有限制;也可實施為夾設/架設機構,如圖7I所示,或是套設機構,以達到可沿著鏡腳移動的效果;也可實施為磁吸機構,例如,鏡腳與電極/結合模組實施為可透過磁性彼此相吸,則只要在磁力的範圍內,都是電極可設置的位置,同樣可達成沿著鏡腳移動的效果。此外,對製作而言,更為簡單的一種實施方式是,如圖7J所示,可在鏡腳面向頭部的表面上設置複數個結合位置,例如,可實施為卡槽,以放置實施為具相對應結構的電極,並利用機械卡合的方式固定,如此一來,在使用時,使用者就可依照自身的頭部尺寸、或是不同的檢測位置需求,而選擇要結合於哪一個結合位置,同樣是相當方便的方式,或者,替代地,也可實施為多個可磁吸固定的位置,亦相當有利。因此,可以有各種可能,沒有一定的限制。 Wherein, FIG. 7G shows that the ear contact portion is directly implemented as a part of the temple, and FIG. 7H shows that the ear contact portion is implemented in a form combined with the temple, and further has a curve conforming to the back of the auricle, as for the adjustment. The mechanism has a number of implementation options, for example, can be implemented as a sliding mechanism, for example, a track is provided, as shown in Figure 7G, to move the electrode in the track, and the movement within the track can be implemented as a segmentation. Or no segment movement, no limitation; can also be implemented as a clamping / erecting mechanism, as shown in Figure 7I, or a nesting mechanism to achieve the effect of moving along the temple; can also be implemented as a magnetic mechanism, for example The temples and the electrodes/bonding modules are configured to be magnetically attracted to each other, and as long as they are in the range of the magnetic force, the positions where the electrodes can be set can also achieve the effect of moving along the temples. In addition, for the production, a simpler embodiment is that, as shown in FIG. 7J, a plurality of bonding positions can be disposed on the surface of the temple facing the head, for example, can be implemented as a card slot, and the placement is implemented as Electrodes with corresponding structures are fixed by mechanical clamping, so that when used, the user can select which one to be combined according to his own head size or different detection position requirements. It is also quite convenient to combine the positions, or alternatively, it can be implemented as a plurality of magnetically fixed positions, which is also quite advantageous. Therefore, there are various possibilities, and there are no certain restrictions.

在此需注意地是,上述的這些設置方式,亦適合用來設置其他同樣有設置位置需求的生理感測元件,例如,光感測器亦需設置於無毛髮處,故沒有實施的限制。 It should be noted that the above-mentioned setting manners are also suitable for setting other physiological sensing components that also have the required position. For example, the light sensor also needs to be disposed at the hairless portion, so there is no implementation limitation.

再進一步地,電極及光感測器除了實施為直接設置於鏡框單元及/或鏡腳表面外,亦可透過外接的方式而進行設置,例如,可透過直接與 鏡腳相結合的方式,或是透過連接線進行連接等,而無論如何進行設置,重點是,需與鏡框單元及/或鏡腳中的可導電部分相連接,如此才能連接至金屬絞鍊結構及/或電路系統,進而進行生理訊號的擷取。 Further, the electrode and the photo sensor are disposed not only directly on the surface of the frame unit and/or the temple, but also through an external connection, for example, by directly combining with the temple, or It is connected through a connecting wire, etc., and no matter how it is set, the point is that it needs to be connected to the conductive portion of the frame unit and/or the temple, so that it can be connected to the metal hinge structure and/or the circuit system. Extraction of physiological signals.

另一方面,該電路系統除了如圖1所示地設置於鏡腳中外,亦可實施為透過與鏡腳相結合的一結合模組而進行設置,例如,所有的電路皆設置於該結合模組中,或者,僅部分電路設置於該結合模組中等,皆是可行的方式,沒有限制,而在接下來的實施例中,為了方便敘述,則皆以該結合模組中包含所有電路系統元件為例而進行敘述及圖示,然正如本領域具通常知識者所熟知,其僅是作為舉例之用,而非作為限制。 On the other hand, the circuit system is disposed in the temple of the lens as shown in FIG. 1 , and may be configured to be disposed through a combined module combined with the temples. For example, all the circuits are disposed on the bonding die. In the group, or only part of the circuit is disposed in the combined module, it is a feasible manner, and there is no limitation. In the following embodiments, for the convenience of description, all the circuit systems are included in the combined module. The components are described and illustrated by way of example only, and are not intended to be limiting.

首先,當實施為結合模組形式時,即表示該結合模組可根據需求而結合於鏡腳上、或從鏡腳被移除,可讓使用者根據自身需求而決定是否連接結合模組,也提供在不需進行生理訊號擷取時減輕配戴負擔的可能。 Firstly, when implemented in the form of a combined module, it means that the combined module can be attached to or removed from the temple according to requirements, and the user can decide whether to connect the combined module according to his own needs. It also provides the possibility of reducing the wearing burden when physiological signal acquisition is not required.

再者,當結合模組在與鏡腳相結合時,無論結合的方式為何,最重要地是,要達成與該鏡腳可導電部分的連接,亦即,該鏡腳可導電部分需露出接觸位置,以及該結合模組需設相對應的電接觸位置,以在結合的同時達成電連接,如此一來,才能連接至電極,以及有需要的話,連接至金屬絞鍊結構,並達成電生理訊號的取樣迴路。 Moreover, when the bonding module is combined with the temple, regardless of the manner of bonding, the most important thing is to achieve a connection with the conductive portion of the temple, that is, the conductive portion of the temple needs to be exposed. The position, and the bonding module, need to be provided with corresponding electrical contact positions to achieve electrical connection while being combined, so as to be connected to the electrode and, if necessary, to the metal hinge structure and achieve electrophysiology The sampling loop of the signal.

在此前提下,該結合模組與鏡腳的結合方式可以有許多選擇。舉例而言,如圖8A所示,結合模組40可採用連接埠進行連接,以利用連接埠本身的硬體結構來達成連接,一方面達成電連接,另一方面也提供固定力;或者,替代地,也可如圖8B所示,將結合模組40實施為套設於鏡腳末端的形式,而這樣的設計雖會增加鏡腳末端的體積,但卻剛好可讓模組被 隱藏,例如,可剛好藏於耳後,或是被頭髮所覆蓋,因此,仍相當具有優勢;另外,也可採用其他的結合方式,例如,如圖8C所示,可將結合模組實施為較長的造型而將鏡腳嵌設於其中,或是利用穿設的方式等,因此,可因應不同鏡腳的形狀而決定結合模組的造型以及結合方式。而且,結合模組的數量亦不受限制,可依需求而實施為多個,例如,同時於單側鏡腳設置兩個結合模組,或於兩側鏡腳各設置一個結合模組,或是於鏡框單元的兩眼間區域處再設置一個結合模組,都是可能的選擇。 Under this premise, the combination of the combined module and the temple can have many options. For example, as shown in FIG. 8A, the bonding module 40 can be connected by using a connection port to achieve the connection by using the hardware structure of the connection port itself, on the one hand, the electrical connection, and on the other hand, the fixing force; or, Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 8B, the bonding module 40 can be implemented in the form of a sleeve end, and such a design increases the volume of the end of the temple, but just allows the module to be hidden. For example, it may be hidden behind the ear or covered by the hair, and therefore, it is still quite advantageous; in addition, other combinations may be employed. For example, as shown in FIG. 8C, the bonding module may be implemented to be longer. The shape of the temple is embedded in the mirror, or the way of wearing, etc., therefore, the shape and combination of the combined modules can be determined according to the shape of the different temples. Moreover, the number of the combined modules is not limited, and may be implemented as multiple according to requirements. For example, two combined modules are disposed on one side of the temples at the same time, or one combined module is disposed on each of the two sides of the temples, or It is a possible choice to set up a combined module at the inter-eye area of the frame unit.

再者,該結合模組也可實施為透過連接線而連接至鏡腳,舉例而言,可以在鏡腳的末端形成電連接埠42,以供結合模組進行連接,而在此情形下,結合模組的實施形式即可有更多的變化,舉例而言,該結合模組可實施為耳戴結構的形式,例如,耳內殼體的形式(圖8D),或是耳夾的形式等,以提供穩定的設置,另外,由於耳朵亦是可取得腦電訊號的位置,因此,也可藉由在耳戴結構上設置電極,例如,可在耳內殼體接觸耳廓內面、耳道的位置,或是耳夾接觸於耳垂的位置設置參考電極,以配合眼鏡結構的電極一起取得腦電訊號及/或眼電訊號;或者,如前所述,耳道上方的上半部耳廓位置,例如,耳甲牆(耳廓內面中,在耳甲艇(superior concha)及耳甲腔(inferior concha)的周圍,自耳甲底部(concha floor)(亦即,平行於頭顱的平面)向上連接至對耳輪(antihelix)以及對耳屏(antitragus)的一立面區域,稱為耳甲牆(concha wall)),可作為活動偵測電極的設置位置,以及耳道下方的下半部耳廓位置,例如,耳屏、對耳屏、耳屏間切跡等,可作為設置參考電極的位置。再者,採用耳戴形式也增加了透過聲音提供資訊的可能,例如,可在耳戴結構內透過設置發聲元件,或直接實施 為耳機的形式,以透過聲音告知使用者當前的生理狀況等。 Furthermore, the bonding module can also be implemented to be connected to the temple via a connecting wire. For example, an electrical connection 42 can be formed at the end of the temple for connecting the module, and in this case, There may be more variations in the implementation of the modular module. For example, the combined module may be implemented in the form of an ear-worn structure, for example, in the form of an in-ear housing (Fig. 8D), or in the form of an ear clip. Etc., in order to provide a stable setting, and since the ear is also a position at which the EEG signal can be obtained, it is also possible to provide an electrode on the ear-wearing structure, for example, the inner casing of the ear can contact the inner surface of the auricle, Positioning the ear canal, or setting the reference electrode at the position where the ear clip contacts the earlobe, to obtain the brain signal and/or the EO signal together with the electrode of the eyeglass structure; or, as mentioned above, the upper half above the ear canal The position of the auricle, for example, the wall of the ear (in the inner surface of the auricle, around the superior concha and the inferior concha, from the concha floor (ie, parallel to the skull) Plane) connected up to the pair of ears (antihelix) and to the ear (antitragus) a façade area, called the concha wall, which can be used as the position of the motion detecting electrode and the lower auricle position below the ear canal, for example, tragus, tragus , the tragus between the tragus, etc., can be used as the location of the reference electrode. Furthermore, the use of the ear-wearing form also increases the possibility of providing information through the sound, for example, by setting the sound-emitting element in the ear-wearing structure or directly into the form of the earphone to inform the user of the current physiological condition through the sound.

或者,如圖8E所示,結合模組可透過與兩邊的鏡腳相結合的方式而設置於頭部後方,例如,一邊與電連接埠42形成電連接,而另一邊則為單純機械結合作為固定,或是兩邊皆實施為電連接埠;另外,電連接的達成除了採用電連接埠外,也可採用電接觸的形式,例如,可在套設的同時完成電接觸,或是採用磁性電接觸的方式等,因此,有各種可能。 Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 8E, the bonding module can be disposed behind the head through a combination of the temples on both sides, for example, one side is electrically connected to the electrical connection port 42, and the other side is simply mechanically coupled. Fixed, or both sides are implemented as electrical connections; in addition, the electrical connection can be achieved in addition to the electrical connection, or in the form of electrical contact, for example, electrical contact can be completed at the same time as the socket, or magnetic electricity can be used. The way of contact, etc., therefore, there are various possibilities.

在此,需要注意地是,圖8A-8E僅在於顯示接合模組的實施可能,故未繪製電極以及電路系統,故其可適用於任何種類的眼鏡結構以及電極/電路配置方式。 Here, it should be noted that FIGS. 8A-8E only show the implementation possibilities of the bonding module, so the electrodes and the circuit system are not drawn, so it can be applied to any kind of eyeglass structure and electrode/circuit configuration.

另一方面,該結合模組除了用以設置電路系統外,亦可用來設置電極,舉例而言,可將電極設置於結合模組的表面,以在結合模組結合至鏡腳的同時,亦將電極提供至該眼鏡結構上,如圖8所示,該結合模組40的內側表面上具有一電極50,因此,當該結合模組40連接至鏡腳14的金屬部分後,電極50即可與電極30一起取得腦電訊號及/或眼電訊號,是相當方便的一個選擇;或者,該結合模組也可於外側具有電極(未顯示),用以接觸一上肢,進而與電極30一起取得心電訊號;另外,也可透過該結合模組而提供光感測器,例如,設置於接觸V型凹陷的表面,如此一來,就可自頭部取得血液生理訊號,或是設置於外側,以自接觸的上肢取得血液生理訊號,同樣是方便的選擇。在此,同樣地,當電極設置於結合模組的表面時,亦可採用接觸確保結構,以讓接觸更為確實。 On the other hand, the bonding module can be used to set the electrodes in addition to the circuit system. For example, the electrodes can be disposed on the surface of the bonding module to be combined with the mirror legs. An electrode is provided on the lens structure. As shown in FIG. 8 , the inner surface of the bonding module 40 has an electrode 50. Therefore, when the bonding module 40 is connected to the metal portion of the temple 14 , the electrode 50 is It is quite convenient to obtain the EEG and/or EEG signals together with the electrode 30; alternatively, the bonding module can also have electrodes (not shown) on the outside for contacting an upper limb and thus the electrode 30. The ECG signal is obtained together; in addition, the photo sensor can be provided through the bonding module, for example, on the surface contacting the V-shaped recess, so that the blood physiological signal can be obtained from the head or set. On the outside, it is also a convenient choice to obtain blood physiological signals from the upper limbs that are in contact. Here, similarly, when the electrodes are disposed on the surface of the bonding module, a contact securing structure may also be employed to make the contact more reliable.

再者,除了上述的情形外,該結合模組上的電極亦有其他實施選擇。舉例而言,若眼鏡上原本即已具可取得腦電訊號、眼電訊號、及/或 皮膚電訊號的至少二電極,例如,二個電極分置於二鏡腳,二個電極位於同一鏡腳,或一個電極位於鏡腳及一電極位於鏡框單元,則可實施為透過結合上該結合模組,而改變擷取電生理訊號的位置及組合範式。在此,結合模組的設置位置可以是鏡腳上,也可以是鏡框單元上,沒有限制。 Furthermore, in addition to the above, there are other implementation options for the electrodes on the bonding module. For example, if the glasses have at least two electrodes that can obtain EEG signals, EEG signals, and/or skin signals, for example, the two electrodes are placed on the two mirror legs, and the two electrodes are located in the same mirror. The foot, or an electrode located at the temple and an electrode located in the frame unit, can be implemented to change the position and combination paradigm of the electrophysiological signal by combining the bonding module. Here, the setting position of the combined module may be on the temple foot or on the frame unit, and there is no limitation.

其中一種情形是,結合模組上的電極被實施為取代眼鏡上原有的其中一電極,例如,可因偵測到結合模組的連接而執行電路切換,或是利用結合模組插入時,連接器(例如,可切換導通路徑的耳機插口(Phone Jack))的機械結構來完成電路切換,而透過取代的方式,一方面可改變電極的取樣位置,另一方面則可改變取樣的組合範式。 In one case, the electrodes on the bonding module are implemented to replace one of the original electrodes on the glasses. For example, the circuit switching may be performed by detecting the connection of the bonding module, or when the module is inserted by using the bonding module. The mechanical structure of the device (for example, the Phone Jack that can switch the conduction path) is used to complete the circuit switching, and by the alternative, the sampling position of the electrode can be changed on the one hand, and the combined mode of sampling can be changed on the other hand.

舉例而言,以改變電極位置而言,在電極分置於二鏡腳的例子中,結合模組上的電極可使得原先設置於鏡腳上、接觸大腦皮質顳葉區頭皮的電極,改變為向後延伸接觸大腦皮質枕葉區頭皮的電極,或是向上延伸接觸腦皮質頂葉區頭皮的電極,或是改變為二個電極皆位於頭部同一側,或是改變為接觸頭部一側以及接觸兩眼間區域;另一方面,在二電極皆位於同一鏡腳的例子中,結合模組上的電極可將其中一電極改變為位於另一鏡腳上,或是變化頭部同一側的接觸位置,例如,由接觸太陽穴與V型凹陷變化為接觸V型凹陷與乳突骨,或是改變為接觸頭部一側以及接觸兩眼間區域;再一方面,在一個電極位於鏡框上以及一個電極位於鏡腳上的例子中,結合模組上的電極則可用來取代接觸兩眼區域的電極,以改變為二個電極分別接觸頭部兩側,或是二個電極接觸頭部同一側。 For example, in the case of changing the position of the electrode, in the case where the electrode is placed in the two-legged foot, the electrode on the combined module can change the electrode originally placed on the temple foot and contact the scalp of the cerebral cortex area to be changed to a posterior extension of the electrode that contacts the scalp of the occipital region of the cerebral cortex, or an electrode that extends upwardly into contact with the scalp of the parietal lobes, or that the two electrodes are located on the same side of the head, or changed to the side of the contact head and Contacting the area between the two eyes; on the other hand, in the case where the two electrodes are all located in the same temple, the electrodes on the combined module can change one of the electrodes to be located on the other temple or change the same side of the head. The contact position, for example, changes from contact with the temple and V-shaped depression to contact with the V-shaped depression and the mastoid bone, or changes to contact the side of the head and contact the area between the two eyes; on the other hand, an electrode is located on the frame and In the example where an electrode is located on the temple, the electrode on the module can be used to replace the electrode contacting the two-eye area, so that the two electrodes are respectively contacted on both sides of the head, or two electrodes. Contact with the side of the head.

而以改變取樣組合範式而言,則可由雙極組合範式改變為參考組合範式,或是反之亦然,例如,透過結合模組上的電極接觸乳突骨、或 是實施為耳戴形式而接觸耳廓內面/耳道,可使原本的雙極組合範式改變為參考組合範式,相反地,透過將結合模組設置於可對應至大腦皮質的頭部位置,例如,側面接近V型凹陷、太陽穴的位置,或是鏡框單元正面接觸兩眼間區域的位置等,就可用來取代原有參考組合範式中的參考電極,進而利用雙極組合範式而取得腦電訊號。 In the case of changing the sampling combination paradigm, the bipolar combination paradigm can be changed to the reference combination paradigm, or vice versa, for example, by contacting the electrodes on the bonding module with the mastoid bone, or by touching the ear wearing form. The inner surface of the auricle/ear canal can change the original bipolar combination paradigm to the reference combination paradigm. Conversely, by placing the bonding module at a position corresponding to the head of the cerebral cortex, for example, the side is close to the V-shaped depression, The position of the temple, or the position of the front of the frame unit contacting the area between the two eyes, can be used to replace the reference electrode in the original reference combination paradigm, and then use the bipolar combination paradigm to obtain the EEG signal.

另一種情形是,透過結合模組來增加取樣的電極,而除了能因此改變取樣的組合範式外,還可由於加入結合模組上的電極,而將單通道取樣迴路增加為雙通道取樣迴路。舉例而言,在一實施例中,若原先是利用設置於二鏡腳、或分置於鏡腳及鏡框的電極而採用雙極組合範式取得腦電訊號,而在結合上結合模組後,其上的電極則可作為參考電極,例如,實施為耳夾接觸耳垂,實施為耳內殼體接觸耳廓內面/耳道,或連接於鏡腳末端而接觸乳突骨等,以利用參考組合範式而取得腦電訊號,例如,可以是原有的兩個電極分別與結合模組上的電極利用參考組合範式而取得腦電訊號,也可以是其中一個電極除了原先的取樣迴路取得雙極組範式腦電訊號外,另與結合模組上的電極形成另一個取樣迴路,而取得參考組合範式腦電訊號,而無論何種情形,皆是由原先的單通道腦電訊號擷取改變為雙通道腦電訊號擷取。 In another case, by adding the module to increase the sampled electrode, in addition to the combination of the sampling mode, the single channel sampling loop can be added to the dual channel sampling loop by adding the electrodes on the bonding module. For example, in an embodiment, if the electrodes are disposed on the two mirror legs or the electrodes disposed on the temples and the frame, the bipolar combination paradigm is used to obtain the EEG signal, and after combining the modules, The electrode on the electrode can be used as a reference electrode, for example, as an ear clip contacting the earlobe, and the inner ear shell is connected to the inner surface of the auricle/ear canal, or connected to the end of the temple to contact the mastoid bone, etc., for reference. Combining the paradigm to obtain the EEG signal, for example, the original two electrodes and the electrode on the combined module respectively use the reference combination paradigm to obtain the EEG signal, or one of the electrodes can obtain the bipolar except the original sampling loop. In addition to the group paradigm signal, another sampling circuit is formed with the electrodes on the combined module, and the reference combined paradigm EEG signal is obtained, and in any case, the original single-channel EEG signal is changed to a double Channel EEG signals are captured.

替代地,也可以是原先的兩個電極是採用參考組合範式而取得腦電訊號,在結合上結合模組後,其上的電極與原有的參考電極再形成另一個取樣迴路,以利用參考組合範式取得腦電訊號,或是其上的電極與原有的活動偵測電極再形成另一取樣迴路,以利用雙極組合範式而取得腦電訊號,而同樣地,無論何種情形,皆是由原先的單通道腦電訊號擷取改變 為雙通道腦電訊號擷取。 Alternatively, the original two electrodes can obtain the EEG signal by using the reference combination paradigm. After the module is combined, the electrode on the electrode and the original reference electrode form another sampling loop to utilize the reference. The combined paradigm acquires the EEG signal, or the electrode on it and the original motion detecting electrode form another sampling loop to obtain the EEG signal by using the bipolar combination paradigm, and similarly, in any case, It was changed from the original single-channel EEG signal acquisition to the dual-channel EEG signal acquisition.

其中再一種情形是,結合模組上的電極被用來增加擷取訊號的種類,例如,可於原本的腦電訊號外,增加取得眼電訊號、心電訊號、皮膚電訊號、及/或肌電訊號等。 In another case, the electrodes on the combined module are used to increase the type of the captured signal, for example, to obtain an EO, ECG, cutaneous, and/or muscle in addition to the original EEG signal. Telecommunications, etc.

因此,透過結合模組,除了可用以容置電路系統而簡化眼鏡的製作難度外,亦可用來改變電極設置、取樣組合範式、所擷取的生理訊號種類等,進而增加使用靈活度,對使用者而言是相當具優勢的選擇。 Therefore, through the combination of modules, in addition to simplification of the production of glasses for accommodating the circuit system, it can also be used to change the electrode setting, the sampling combination paradigm, the type of physiological signals captured, etc., thereby increasing the flexibility of use. It is a very advantageous choice.

另外,在一特殊實施例中,當眼鏡結構的鼻墊實施為可置換的形式時(無論眼鏡結構上是否結合有結合模組),也可透過將原先不可導電鼻墊更換為可導電鼻墊的方式,或是相反,而改變取樣位置、取樣組合範式、取樣訊號種類等,其中,同樣有取代原有其中一個電極的方式,或是與原有電極一起進行訊號擷取兩種選擇,以在參考組合範式與雙極組合範式,以及單通道取樣迴路與雙通道取樣迴路之間改變。然而,在此需要注意地,其前提是,該鼻墊的設置位置必須已經與電路系統間達成電連接,無論是透過設置於鏡框單元中的金屬部件,或是利用設置導線的方式。 In addition, in a special embodiment, when the nose pad of the eyeglass structure is implemented in a replaceable form (whether or not the combination module is combined with the eyeglass structure), the original non-conductive nose pad can also be replaced with a conductive nose pad. Or, instead, change the sampling position, sampling combination paradigm, sampling signal type, etc., which also replaces one of the original electrodes, or performs signal extraction together with the original electrode to Changes between the reference combination paradigm and the bipolar combination paradigm, as well as the single channel sampling loop and the dual channel sampling loop. However, it should be noted here that the position of the nose pad must have been electrically connected to the circuit system, whether through a metal component disposed in the frame unit or by means of a wire.

進一步地,該電路系統除了提供執行生理訊號擷取的功能外,亦可包括其他功能。舉例而言,該電路系統可包括一資訊提供單元,以將生理資訊、操作資訊、及/或其他資訊提供予使用者,而由於眼鏡就配戴於頭部,不但接近眼睛、耳朵,也與皮膚相貼,因此,可透過視覺、聽覺、觸覺等各種方式而進行資訊提供,舉例而言,可如圖10A所示於眼鏡結構接近眼睛的位置處設置發光元件44,例如,LED,或可由內側延伸導光柱至鏡片而產生顏色變化,或可利用眼鏡鏡片作為顯示螢幕,例如,利用投影 的方式,或如圖10B所示由眼鏡結構延伸出顯示元件46,例如,LCD,設置於使用者眼前,或也可如圖10C所示,在眼鏡結構上外加上顯示單元48,設置於使用者眼前,因此,可以是任何形式,沒有限制;另外,也可在耳朵附近產生聲音,例如,可在耳朵附近的鏡腳上設置發聲元件,其中,所採用的發聲元件除了可以是一般常見的空氣傳導形式外,亦可採用骨傳導形式,例如,可直接在鏡腳與頭骨接觸的位置處設置骨傳導揚聲器,或者,也可自眼鏡結構延伸出耳機,而此則尤其適合如上所述結合模組實施為耳戴結構的情形;再者,也可透過在與皮膚接觸的位置產生振動的方式,例如,設置振動模組,而提供生理資訊,因此,可以有各種可能。 Further, the circuit system may include other functions in addition to the function of performing physiological signal acquisition. For example, the circuitry may include an information providing unit to provide physiological information, operational information, and/or other information to the user, and since the glasses are worn on the head, not only close to the eyes, ears, but also The skin is attached. Therefore, the information can be provided through various means such as sight, hearing, touch, etc., for example, the light-emitting element 44, for example, an LED, or the like can be disposed at a position where the eyeglass structure is close to the eye as shown in FIG. 10A. Extending the light guide column to the lens to produce a color change, or using the spectacle lens as a display screen, for example, by using a projection method, or extending the display element 46 from the spectacle structure as shown in FIG. 10B, for example, an LCD, provided to the user In front of the eyes, or as shown in FIG. 10C, the display unit 48 is externally attached to the eyeglass structure, and is disposed in front of the user's eyes. Therefore, it may be in any form without limitation. In addition, sound may be generated near the ear, for example, A sounding element is arranged on the temple near the ear, wherein the sounding element used can be a common air conduction form, The bone conduction form can be used. For example, the bone conduction speaker can be directly disposed at a position where the temple is in contact with the skull, or the earphone can be extended from the eyeglass structure, and this is particularly suitable for the ear wear with the module as described above. In the case of the structure, it is also possible to provide physiological information by generating vibrations at a position in contact with the skin, for example, by providing a vibration module, and thus, various possibilities are possible.

再者,該電路系統也可包括一操作介面,設置於該眼鏡結構上,或是自該眼鏡結構延伸而出,以供使用者作為控制之用,例如,設置於鏡腳上的按鍵、觸控介面等,或是延伸出之耳戴結構上的按鍵、觸控介面等,沒有限制。 Furthermore, the circuit system can also include an operation interface disposed on the lens structure or extending from the lens structure for the user to control, for example, a button or a touch on the temple foot. There are no restrictions on the control interface, etc., or the buttons on the ear-wearing structure, the touch interface, and the like.

另外,該電路系統亦可包括一通訊模組,以透過有線或無線的方式而將生理資訊傳送至一外部裝置,例如,有線傳輸方式可透過USB連接,無線傳輸方式可透過藍芽,無限制,再由外部裝置將生理資訊提供予使用者,例如,透過螢幕顯示數據、波形等,或是閃燈、振動、發出聲音等;其中,所傳輸的生理資訊可以是所擷取的生理訊號,也可以是經處理器分析後所獲得的結果,可依需求而不同,據此,該電路系統中尚可具有一記憶體,以紀錄下生理資訊,待檢測完成後再行傳輸,或者,也可採用即時無線傳輸的方式,或將記憶體作為即時傳輸前的緩衝儲存,沒有限制。 In addition, the circuit system can also include a communication module for transmitting physiological information to an external device through a wired or wireless manner. For example, the wired transmission mode can be connected through a USB connection, and the wireless transmission mode can be transmitted through the Bluetooth, without limitation. The physiological information is provided to the user by an external device, for example, displaying data, waveforms, etc. through a screen, or flashing lights, vibrating, emitting sounds, etc., wherein the transmitted physiological information may be physiological signals acquired. It can also be the result obtained by the processor analysis, which can be different according to the requirements. Accordingly, the circuit system can still have a memory to record the physiological information, and then transmit after the detection is completed, or There is no limit to the method of instant wireless transmission or the storage of the memory as a buffer before instant transmission.

在此,該外部裝置可以是任何具傳輸能力且可執行相對應應用 程式的裝置,例如,但不限制於,智慧手機,智慧手錶,智慧眼鏡,平板電腦,筆記型電腦,以及個人電腦等。 Here, the external device may be any device capable of transmitting and executing a corresponding application, such as, but not limited to, a smart phone, a smart watch, a smart glasses, a tablet, a notebook, and a personal computer.

另一方面,也可實施為由該外部裝置上執行的應用程式而控制該電路系統的運作,例如,使用者可將結合模組一直結合於眼鏡上、或更換上鏡腳,但先不進行生理訊號擷取,當有需要時,再透過手機上的應用程式啟動,並透過手機而即時監控生理狀況;再者,如上所述,由於有可能同時取得多種生理訊號,因此,也可透過外部裝置上執行的應用程式而選擇要取得的生理訊號的種類,及/或欲進行分析的生理訊號種類等,相當方便,另外,透過上述的操作介面,該眼鏡結構也可傳輸指令至該外部裝置,都是可能的實施方式。 On the other hand, it can also be implemented to control the operation of the circuit system by an application executed on the external device. For example, the user can always attach the bonding module to the glasses or replace the upper temple, but do not perform the first step. Physiological signal acquisition, when needed, can be activated by the application on the mobile phone and instantly monitor the physiological condition through the mobile phone; furthermore, as described above, since it is possible to obtain multiple physiological signals at the same time, it is also possible to externally It is quite convenient to select the type of physiological signal to be acquired and/or the type of physiological signal to be analyzed, and the optical structure can also transmit instructions to the external device through the above-mentioned operation interface. , are all possible implementations.

而進一步地,在可與該外部裝置進行溝通的情形下,則該眼鏡結構上的發聲元件(空氣傳導式或骨傳導式)還可用來播放來自該外部裝置的音樂,當然,該眼鏡結構的記憶體亦可用來儲存音樂,例如,mp3,直接進行播放,另外,若同時設置有收音元件,則該眼鏡結構就可作為該外部裝置的免持聽筒,以用於通話,相當方便,再者,所具有的顯示元件/顯示單元則是可用來播放影片(儲存於記憶體中、或來自外部裝置),皆為可實施的方式。 Further, in the case of communication with the external device, the sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction) on the eyeglass structure can also be used to play music from the external device, of course, the structure of the glasses The memory can also be used to store music, for example, mp3, to play directly. In addition, if a radio component is provided at the same time, the glasses structure can be used as a hands-free handset of the external device for conversation, which is quite convenient, and further The display element/display unit is provided for playing a movie (stored in a memory or from an external device), which is an implementable manner.

特別地是,可將該資訊提供單元設置於單側的鏡腳上,再配合眼鏡上設置的生理感測元件所取得的生理資訊,將生理資訊傳達給使用者,例如,透過如上所述的聽覺、視覺、觸覺等方式,至於生理資訊如何被傳送至該資訊提供單元則有許多不同選擇,例如,可透過無線傳輸的方式,例如,可實施為一側的鏡腳為生理訊號擷取單元,而另一側的鏡腳則 為資訊提供單元,兩者間進行無線溝通,或是兩者經由外部裝置而進行無線溝通;或者,也可透過設置於眼鏡內部的電連接,或是透過外部的有線電連接,例如,透過於兩鏡腳間設置可移除的電連接線,都是可行的方式。 In particular, the information providing unit can be disposed on the single-sided temple, and the physiological information obtained by the physiological sensing component disposed on the glasses can be used to communicate the physiological information to the user, for example, as described above. Hearing, visual, tactile, etc. There are many different options for how physiological information is transmitted to the information providing unit. For example, it can be transmitted wirelessly. For example, the temple can be implemented as a physiological signal capturing unit on one side. The other side of the temple is an information providing unit, wireless communication between the two, or wireless communication between the two through an external device; or, through the electrical connection inside the glasses, or through the outside A wired electrical connection, for example, by providing a removable electrical connection between the two temples, is a viable option.

在一特殊的實施例中,該生理訊號擷取單元以及該資訊提供單元實施為各自具有處理器模組,通訊模組,電池等,可獨立運作,並分別透過不同的鏡腳而設置於使用者頭部,之後,透過兩者間的溝通,如前所述,有線或無線溝通,該生理訊號擷取單元就可利用該資訊提供單元而將生理資訊提供予使用者,其中,該生理訊號擷取單元可全部或部分嵌置於鏡腳中,或是利用結合模組而與鏡腳結合,該資訊提供單元則可全部或部分嵌置於鏡腳中,架設於鏡腳上,或是實施為連接至鏡腳的一耳戴結構,皆為可行的方式,沒有限制。 In a special embodiment, the physiological signal capturing unit and the information providing unit are implemented as processor modules, communication modules, batteries, etc., and can be independently operated and respectively disposed through different mirror legs. The head, then, through the communication between the two, as described above, wired or wireless communication, the physiological signal acquisition unit can use the information providing unit to provide physiological information to the user, wherein the physiological signal The capturing unit can be embedded in the temples in whole or in part, or combined with the temples by using a combination module, and the information providing unit can be fully or partially embedded in the temples, mounted on the temples, or Implementing an ear-wearing structure that is attached to the temples is a viable manner and is not limited.

該生理訊號擷取單元所具有的生理感測元件則可以是各種形式,例如,電極、及/或光感測器,以取得電生理訊號及/或血液生理資訊,並且,生理感測元件並不受限於僅設置於單側的鏡腳,亦可搭配設置於鏡框上、或是另一側鏡腳上的生理感測元件而一起取得生理訊號,例如,可實施為兩個電極皆設置於該生理訊號擷取單元所在的鏡腳上,或是僅一個電極,而另一個電極則設置於鏡框或另一側鏡腳上。 The physiological sensing component of the physiological signal capturing unit may be in various forms, such as an electrode, and/or a photo sensor, to obtain electrophysiological signals and/or blood physiological information, and the physiological sensing component is It is not limited to the temples that are only disposed on one side, and can also be combined with physiological sensing elements disposed on the frame or on the other side of the temple to obtain a physiological signal. For example, it can be implemented as two electrodes. On the temple where the physiological signal acquisition unit is located, or only one electrode, and the other electrode is disposed on the frame or the other side of the temple.

而透過這樣各自獨立運作的方式,就提供了使用者更高的使用方便性,舉例而言,只需透過更換鏡腳的方式就達到改變所得獲得之生理檢測功能、及/或資訊提供方式的目的,例如,原本用來檢測腦電訊號的鏡腳可更換為測量心電訊號,原本提供視覺資訊提供的鏡腳可更換為聽覺資訊提供,或是在原有的功能上增加其他的功能等,都變得相當簡便,而且, 即使在非該生理訊號擷取單元所在的鏡腳上設置有電極的情形下,亦可透過更換鏡腳的方式,而移除該電極,或是變為不利用該電極等,不受限制。 In this way, the independent operation of the user provides users with higher ease of use. For example, the physiological detection function and/or the information providing method can be changed by changing the temples. Purpose, for example, the temples originally used to detect brain signals can be replaced with measuring ECG signals. The temples that provide visual information can be replaced with audio information, or other functions can be added to the original functions. It has become quite simple, and even if an electrode is provided on the temple where the physiological signal capturing unit is located, the electrode can be removed by changing the temple, or it can be used without being used. The electrode or the like is not limited.

再者,特別地是,根據本發明概念的眼鏡結構,也適合實施為虛擬實境眼鏡(Virtual Reality Glasses,VR Glasses)或是擴增實境眼鏡(Augmented Reality Glasses,AR Glasses),如此一來,就可直接透過VR、AR眼鏡原有的資訊提供介面而將資訊提供予使用者,另一方面,相對地,透過設置於眼鏡上的生理訊號擷取單元,還可幫助VR、AR眼鏡中所執行的程式判斷使用者的使用情形,彼此相輔相成,相當具優勢。 Furthermore, in particular, the eyeglass structure according to the inventive concept is also suitable for implementation as Virtual Reality Glasses (VR Glasses) or Augmented Reality Glasses (AR Glasses). The information can be directly provided to the user through the original information providing interface of the VR and AR glasses. On the other hand, the physiological signal capturing unit disposed on the glasses can also help the VR and the AR glasses. The executed program determines the user's use situation and complements each other, which is quite advantageous.

接下來,在本發明另一方面的構想中,則提供了無須改變鏡框單元外觀即可取得生理訊號的另一種可能實施方式。請參閱圖11A,其顯示根據本發明一較佳實施例的示意圖,如圖中所示,鏡腳的內側同時具有二個電極,一個是位於接近眼睛側面、太陽穴的電極62,另一個則位在耳朵上方附近的電極64。 Next, in the concept of another aspect of the present invention, another possible embodiment for obtaining a physiological signal without changing the appearance of the frame unit is provided. Referring to FIG. 11A, there is shown a schematic view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the inside of the temple has two electrodes at the same time, one is located near the side of the eye, the electrode 62 of the temple, and the other is Electrode 64 near the top of the ear.

在此,如此的電極分配位置有其特殊意義,由於設置於眼睛側面、太陽穴附近的電極,其除了可測得腦電訊號外,亦可偵測到眼睛的動作,因此,再配合上耳朵附近的電極後,僅透過同側的二個電極就可同時取得腦電訊號以及眼電訊號,而也由於電極僅位於單邊鏡腳上,因此,僅需透過更換單隻鏡腳的方式就可讓眼鏡獲得強大的功能,相當具有優勢。 Here, such an electrode distribution position has its special significance. Because of the electrodes disposed on the side of the eye and near the temple, in addition to the EEG signal, the action of the eye can be detected, and therefore, the vicinity of the ear is matched. After the electrode, the EEG signal and the EEG signal can be obtained simultaneously through only the two electrodes on the same side, and since the electrode is only located on the single-sided mirror foot, it is only necessary to replace the single temple foot. Glasses have great features and are quite advantageous.

但由於每個人臉型的差異,有可能在眼睛側面、太陽穴附近的電極與皮膚間的接觸,不一定呈現緊貼,因此,可進一步地實施為,如圖9B所示,於眼側電極的下方設置一凸起66,以確保電極與皮膚間的接觸,而實施時,除了可根據不同臉型而採用不同高度的凸起外,亦可將凸起實 施為具有彈性,以適應不同的臉型;或者,如圖9C所示,也可於由鏡腳向上伸出的一延伸部件68上至額頭,例如,接觸髮際邊緣,以將原先位於眼睛附近的電極延伸為電極62’,如此一來,除了可測得眼動訊號外,亦可取得大腦皮質額葉區的活動情形,或是如圖9D所示,也可透過延伸部件69向後延伸至頭部後方,而使原先位於耳朵附近的電極延伸為電極64’,以取得大腦皮質枕葉區的活動情形,在此,該延伸部件除了可直接形成於該鏡腳上外,亦可透過其他的方式而達成,舉例而言,可在鏡腳上設置一連接埠,以連接該延伸部件,或者,該延伸部件也可實施為與電極相接,例如,可透過磁吸的方式而與電極間不但形成電連接亦達成機械固定,並因此而將該電極延伸至其他位置。因此,可以有各種可能,沒有限制。 However, due to the difference in the shape of each person's face, it is possible that the contact between the electrode on the side of the eye and the temple and the skin does not necessarily appear to be intimate. Therefore, it can be further implemented as shown in FIG. 9B below the eye electrode. A protrusion 66 is provided to ensure contact between the electrode and the skin, and in addition to the protrusions of different heights according to different face shapes, the protrusions may be elasticized to adapt to different face shapes; or As shown in FIG. 9C, it may also be on an extension member 68 extending upward from the temple to the forehead, for example, contacting the hairline edge to extend the electrode originally located near the eye as the electrode 62', thus, In addition to the measurable eye movement signal, the activity of the cerebral cortex frontal area can also be obtained, or as shown in FIG. 9D, the extension member 69 can be extended backward to the rear of the head to make the electrode located near the ear. Extending to the electrode 64' to obtain the activity of the occipital region of the cerebral cortex, where the extension member can be directly formed on the temple, or can be achieved by other means, for example A connecting port may be disposed on the temple to connect the extending member, or the extending member may be configured to be in contact with the electrode, for example, magnetically connected to the electrode to form an electrical connection. Mechanically fixed and thus extends the electrode to other locations. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no restrictions.

另外,特別地是,如圖11E所示,也可透過結合模組延長鏡腳至頭部後方的位置而取得枕葉區的腦部活動,或者,鏡腳也可直接被形成為具有向後延伸的彎曲部分,而當電極的接觸位置處具有毛髮時,例如,頭部後方有頭髮,以及頭部側面有鬢角,則可利用接觸確保結構而穿過毛髮取得訊號,例如,採用如上所述的伸縮電極,及/或分散為多個接觸點等,因此,沒有限制,只需能夠達成電極與皮膚間的穩定接觸即可。 In addition, in particular, as shown in FIG. 11E, the brain activity of the occipital region can also be obtained by extending the position of the temple to the rear of the head through the joint module, or the temple can be directly formed to have a rearward extension. The curved portion, and when there is hair at the contact position of the electrode, for example, the hair is behind the head, and the side of the head has a corner, the contact securing structure can be used to obtain the signal through the hair, for example, as described above. Since the telescopic electrode is dispersed and/or dispersed into a plurality of contact points and the like, there is no limitation, and only stable contact between the electrode and the skin can be achieved.

另一方面,除了取得腦電訊號及/或眼電訊號外,亦可縮短二電極間的距離,以取得肌電訊號或皮膚電訊號,或者,亦可實施為一個電極位於內側,而另一個電極可由外側供使用者透過上肢接觸電極的方式而進行心電訊號測量,再或者,也可設置光感測器,而取得血液生理訊號。因此,可以有各種可能,且不限於單獨實施,亦可合併實施於同一鏡腳上。 On the other hand, in addition to obtaining EEG signals and/or EEG signals, the distance between the two electrodes can be shortened to obtain myoelectric signals or skin electrical signals, or alternatively, one electrode is located inside and the other electrode is implemented. The ECG signal can be measured by the outside for the user to contact the electrode through the upper limb, or a photo sensor can be provided to obtain the blood physiological signal. Therefore, there are various possibilities, and are not limited to being implemented separately, but may be combined and implemented on the same temple.

在此,同樣地,用來執行電生理訊號擷取的電路系統可實施為 直接設置於鏡腳中(如圖11A所示),也可實施為容置於與鏡腳透過末端電連接埠42而電連接的結合模組40中(如圖11B所示)(亦可實施為耳戴形式),或實施為與鏡腳末端相結合的結合模組40中(如圖11E所示)而且,該結合模組同樣可實施為先前已述的各種不同形式,皆無限制。 Here, the circuit system for performing electrophysiological signal acquisition can be implemented to be directly disposed in the temple (as shown in FIG. 11A ), or can be implemented to be electrically connected to the through-the-end end of the temple 42 . And electrically connected to the bonding module 40 (as shown in FIG. 11B) (also implemented in an ear-wearing form), or implemented in a bonding module 40 combined with the end of the temple (as shown in FIG. 11E). The combination module can also be implemented in various different forms as previously described, without limitation.

再進一步地,也可實施為兩隻鏡腳皆進行更換,而在此情形中,則需利用配線而達成兩隻鏡腳間的電連接,舉例而言,如圖12A所示,可以是電路系統100已設置於鏡腳702中,且兩鏡腳702及704亦已於表面分別設有電極72以及電極74,因此,當有測量需要時,使用者只需將連接線70分別接上兩鏡腳上的電連接埠42即可;或者,也可如圖12B-12C所示,主要的電路系統設置於結合模組40中,當有測量需要時,透過於一邊鏡腳702接上結合模組40,以及另一邊鏡腳704接上連接線70,或是將結合模組40透過連接線而分別連接至兩鏡腳,就可完成取樣迴路,同樣很方便,而且,由於連接線會位於頭部的後方,因此,同樣不會影響正面的造型效果。 Further, it is also possible to implement replacement of both temples, and in this case, electrical connection between the two temples is required by using wiring, for example, as shown in FIG. 12A, it may be a circuit. The system 100 has been disposed in the temple 702, and the two mirror legs 702 and 704 have been respectively provided with electrodes 72 and electrodes 74 on the surface. Therefore, when there is a need for measurement, the user only needs to connect the connection wires 70 to the two. The electrical connection 埠 42 on the temples can be used; or, as shown in FIGS. 12B-12C, the main circuit system is disposed in the bonding module 40, and when connected to the mirror 702 The module 40 and the other side of the mirror leg 704 are connected to the connecting line 70, or the connecting module 40 is respectively connected to the two mirror legs through the connecting line, and the sampling circuit can be completed, which is also very convenient, and, because the connecting line will It is located at the back of the head, so it does not affect the frontal look.

替代地,也可如前所述地,利用眼鏡結構中的可導電部分來完成電極與電路系統間的連接。舉例而言,在圖12D所示的實施例中,眼鏡結構一側的鏡腳上已設置有電極72,而電路系統則主要設置於耳戴結構中,並透過連接埠42而連接至另一側的鏡腳上,而另一個電極50則被設置於實施為耳戴形式,例如,耳內殼體,的結合模組的表面,以在耳內殼體設置於耳朵上時,接觸耳朵的皮膚,透過這樣的設置,只要透過眼鏡結構中的可導電部分將電極72電連接至連接埠42,則使用者欲進行測量時,就只需再插接上耳戴結構,並完成耳戴結構的設置即可,亦相當方便。在此,需要注意地是,雖然為了使用的方便性,結合模組被實施為耳戴形式,但並 非作為限制,亦可實施為如圖12B的形式,而其上的電極則可選擇接觸V型凹陷、耳廓背面、乳突骨、或/或耳朵附近的頭部區域等,皆為可行。 Alternatively, the connection between the electrodes and the circuitry can be accomplished using electrically conductive portions of the spectacles structure as previously described. For example, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 12D, the electrode 72 is disposed on the temple on one side of the eyeglass structure, and the circuit system is mainly disposed in the earwear structure and connected to the other through the port 42 The other side of the temple is disposed on the side of the temple, and the other electrode 50 is disposed in the form of an ear, such as an in-ear housing, to engage the surface of the module to contact the ear when the inner housing is placed on the ear. The skin, through such an arrangement, is that as long as the electrode 72 is electrically connected to the port 42 through the electrically conductive portion of the lens structure, the user only needs to insert the upper ear wearing structure and complete the ear wearing structure when the user wants to perform the measurement. The settings are OK and quite convenient. Here, it should be noted that although the bonding module is implemented in an ear-wearing form for convenience of use, it is not limited thereto, and may be implemented in the form of FIG. 12B, and the electrodes thereon may be selectively contacted with V. A depression, a posterior auricle, a mastoid bone, or/or a head region near the ear, etc., are all feasible.

另外,也可實施為如圖12E所示的方式,在此實施例中,結合模組同樣實施為外接的形式,並具有電路系統設置於其中,而兩個電極72,74則皆已設置於眼鏡結構上,並透過眼鏡結構中的可導電部分而分別連接至連接埠,因此,當使用者欲進行測量時,就只需要連接上耳戴結構即可,或是如圖12B形式的結合模組,同樣是十分具優勢的實施方式。 In addition, it can also be implemented as shown in FIG. 12E. In this embodiment, the bonding module is also implemented in an external form, and has a circuit system disposed therein, and the two electrodes 72, 74 are all disposed on The spectacles are connected to the connecting cymbals through the conductive parts in the spectacles structure. Therefore, when the user wants to perform the measurement, only the upper ear wearing structure is needed, or the bonding mode as shown in FIG. 12B. Groups are also very advantageous implementations.

此外,需注意地是,雖然圖12A-12E中所示為一邊鏡腳僅設置一個電極的情形,但不受限地,也可實施為兩邊鏡腳皆具有二個電極、或是單一鏡腳設置二個電極等,沒有限制。此外,眼鏡結構除了如圖中所示的傳統形式眼鏡外,亦可採用如圖10B所示無絞鍊結構的眼鏡結構,可依實際需求而改變。 In addition, it should be noted that although FIG. 12A-12E shows a case where only one electrode is provided on one side of the temple, it is also possible to implement, without limitation, that both sides have two electrodes or a single temple. There are no restrictions on setting two electrodes. In addition, in addition to the conventional form of glasses as shown in the figure, the eyeglass structure may also adopt an eyeglass structure having no hinge structure as shown in FIG. 10B, which may be changed according to actual needs.

接著,根據本發明再一方面的構想,在對眼鏡賦予電生理訊號擷取能力的同時,亦進一步提供了一個控制機制。請參閱圖13A,其顯示根據本發明一較佳實施例的示意圖,如圖所示,在鏡框單元以及鏡腳的結合處,鏡框單元806及鏡腳802上分別設置相對應的電接觸點82,84,所以,透過這樣的設計,當鏡腳802展開時,鏡腳802與鏡框單元806上的電接觸點82,84將剛好可因鏡腳與鏡框單元的彼此抵頂而相互接觸,以及當鏡腳闔上時,電接觸會被斷開。 Next, in accordance with a further aspect of the present invention, a control mechanism is further provided while imparting electrophysiological signal acquisition capabilities to the glasses. Referring to FIG. 13A, there is shown a schematic view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown, at the junction of the frame unit and the temple, the corresponding electrical contact points 82 are provided on the frame unit 806 and the temple 802, respectively. 84, so, with such a design, when the temple 802 is deployed, the electrical contacts 82, 84 of the temple 802 and the frame unit 806 will just contact each other due to the abutment of the temple and the frame unit, and When the temples are attached, the electrical contacts are disconnected.

而在本發明的概念中,如此的電接觸點設置則是被用來決定電路系統的狀態。由於基於眼鏡不使用時,使用者一般會將鏡腳闔上,以便攜帶,因此,在這樣的前提下,若能在因為這個動作而產生結構改變的位 置處設置可決定電路系統狀態的開關,就可自然地將眼鏡不使用時的收納動作聯結至電路系統的狀態,例如,電路系統是否連接至電極,或是電路系統是否可執行生理訊號擷取等。 In the concept of the invention, such electrical contact settings are used to determine the state of the circuitry. Since the user usually puts the temple on the lens based on the case where the glasses are not used, it is necessary to carry the switch that can determine the state of the circuit system at a position where the structure is changed due to the action. It is natural to connect the storage operation when the glasses are not in use to the state of the circuit system, for example, whether the circuit system is connected to the electrodes, or whether the circuit system can perform physiological signal acquisition or the like.

當可利用眼鏡的打開與收合而決定取樣電路系統的狀態時,具優勢地是,首先,可達到省電的效果,由於眼鏡是配戴於臉上的結構,自然最好是儘可能減輕重量及縮小體積,以增加使用者的使用意願,而電池幾乎佔了穿戴式生理檢測裝置最大的重量及體積,因此,若可藉由這樣的機構而確保眼鏡不使用時,電力不會因誤觸等情形而被消耗,絕對是相當具優勢的設計;再者,則是可以達到減少資料量的效果,由於穿戴式生理檢測裝置多在於執行長時間的測量,所累積資料量相當龐大,因此,這樣的方式將可有效降低資料量,無論是人工解讀、或雲端計算的資源消耗都可因此而被降低。 When the state of the sampling circuit system is determined by the opening and closing of the glasses, it is advantageous that, first of all, the effect of power saving can be achieved, and since the glasses are worn on the face, it is naturally preferable to reduce as much as possible. The weight and the volume are reduced to increase the user's willingness to use, and the battery accounts for almost the maximum weight and volume of the wearable physiological detecting device. Therefore, if the mechanism can be used to ensure that the glasses are not used, the power will not be mistaken. It is definitely a very advantageous design to be consumed by touching the situation. In addition, the effect of reducing the amount of data can be achieved. Since the wearable physiological detecting device mostly performs long-time measurement, the accumulated amount of data is quite large, so In this way, the amount of data can be effectively reduced, and the resource consumption of either manual interpretation or cloud computing can be reduced.

在實際實施時,可以有數種可能方式。舉例而言,相對應的電接觸點可以是分置於鏡框單元以及鏡腳上之電路系統及/或電極中的一開關,當鏡腳闔上時被打開,以及當鏡腳展開時被關上,因此,透過鏡腳打開與收合的動作就可決定電路系統與電極間的電連接的存在與否,在此,需要注意地是,接觸點的設置數量沒有限制,主要是依照需求而進行設置,例如,可以設置一組、二組、或多組接觸點,以達成一條、二條、或多條電傳導迴路,如圖13B所示即為鏡框單元806以及鏡腳802中具相對的二組電接觸點的情形。 There are several possible ways in which it can be implemented. For example, the corresponding electrical contact point may be a switch that is placed in the circuit unit and/or the electrode on the mirror frame unit and the mirror foot, is opened when the temple is mounted on the temple, and is closed when the temple is deployed. Therefore, the presence or absence of electrical connection between the circuit system and the electrode can be determined by the action of opening and closing the temple. Here, it should be noted that the number of contact points is not limited, mainly according to requirements. For example, one, two, or a plurality of sets of contact points may be set to achieve one, two, or a plurality of electrical conduction loops, as shown in FIG. 13B, that is, the frame unit 806 and the opposite side of the temple 802 The case of a group of electrical contacts.

另外,也可實施於所有電極、電路元件等皆位於單一鏡腳中的情況,此時,電接觸點則扮演導通該鏡腳中之電路系統的角色,例如,如 圖13C所示,可在鏡框單元806上設置單一個接觸點82,以在鏡腳展開時同時接觸鏡腳上的二個接觸點841以及842,此時,電路系統就可因偵測到這樣的電連接變化,而進入可執行生理訊號擷取的狀態,亦即,該電連接被使用作為可否執行生理訊號擷取的一個指示。因此,可根據需求的不同而變化電接觸點的實際配置,沒有限制。 In addition, it can also be implemented in the case where all electrodes, circuit components, and the like are located in a single temple. At this time, the electrical contact acts as a circuit system that turns on the temple, for example, as shown in FIG. 13C. A single contact point 82 is disposed on the frame unit 806 to simultaneously contact the two contact points 841 and 842 on the temple when the temple is deployed. At this time, the circuit system can enter by detecting such an electrical connection change. The state of physiological signal acquisition can be performed, that is, the electrical connection is used as an indication of whether physiological signal acquisition can be performed. Therefore, the actual configuration of the electrical contacts can be varied depending on the requirements, without limitation.

另外,根據本發明又一方面的構想,則是針對鏡框單元及鏡腳上的導電部分已相互導通的眼鏡結構,也就是,眼鏡結構本身即能達成訊號傳遞功能者。 In addition, according to another aspect of the present invention, the eyeglass structure in which the conductive portions on the frame unit and the temples are electrically connected to each other, that is, the eyeglass structure itself can achieve the signal transmission function.

此種眼鏡結構可以有各種可能,例如,可以是如圖14A所示之鏡腳及鏡框單元皆由金屬材質所製成,並利用金屬絞鍊結構而相互接合者,或是如圖14C所示之無絞鍊結構的眼鏡結構,可實施為由金屬材質所製成;也可以是膠類材質所製成的眼鏡結構中,於鏡框單元及鏡腳中皆設置導電部分,例如,內置電路板承載電路,再透過金屬絞鍊結構相互連接者;另外,也可以是金屬材質外包覆塑膠材質或醋酸纖維材質者,沒有限制。 There may be various possibilities for such an eyeglass structure. For example, the temples and the frame unit shown in FIG. 14A may be made of a metal material and joined to each other by a metal hinge structure, or as shown in FIG. 14C. The eyeglass structure without the hinge structure can be implemented by a metal material; or in the eyeglass structure made of a rubber material, a conductive portion is provided in the frame unit and the temple, for example, a built-in circuit board The carrying circuit is connected to each other through a metal hinge structure; in addition, it may be a metal material coated with a plastic material or an acetate material, and there is no limitation.

其中,符合此種需求的眼鏡結構中,最常見的就是所謂的金屬框眼鏡,亦即,如圖14A所示者,因此,在接下來的敘述中,會主要以此種眼鏡類型為基礎而進行敘述,但正如本領域具通常知識者所熟知,其並非作為限制,同樣的實施方式亦可應用於具同樣特質的其他眼鏡結構中。 Among them, among the glasses structures that meet such requirements, the most common ones are so-called metal frame glasses, that is, as shown in FIG. 14A, and therefore, in the following description, mainly based on the type of glasses. The description is made, but as is well known to those skilled in the art, it is not intended to be limiting, and the same embodiments can be applied to other eyeglass structures having the same characteristics.

金屬框眼鏡結構同樣會包括一鏡框單元,以及二鏡腳,一般而言,在常見的金屬框眼鏡結構中,鏡框以及鏡腳多是由金屬材質製成,不過,正如所熟知,鼻墊的材質可能有所變化,例如,採用膠墊,或是同樣採用金屬材質,另外,有部分金屬材質眼鏡的鏡腳末端會套有不同材質的 鏡腳套;此外,如圖14C所示的金屬框眼鏡結構,則是鏡框單元以及鏡腳被形成為一體,例如,由單片彈性金屬所形成者。 The metal frame glasses structure will also include a frame unit and two temples. Generally speaking, in the common metal frame glasses structure, the frame and the temples are mostly made of metal, but as is well known, the nose pads are The material may vary, for example, with a rubber pad or the same metal. In addition, some metal glasses will have different sets of temples at the end of the temple; in addition, the metal frame shown in Figure 14C In the eyeglass structure, the frame unit and the temple are integrally formed, for example, formed of a single piece of elastic metal.

因此,當使用金屬框眼鏡結構時,無論電極被設置於金屬材質眼鏡結構的哪個位置,只要能夠與金屬材質形成電連接,都可無須額外佈線地進行電訊號傳輸。 Therefore, when the metal frame spectacles structure is used, no matter where the electrodes are disposed in the metal spectacles structure, electrical signals can be transmitted without additional wiring as long as they can be electrically connected to the metal material.

舉例而言,其中一種可能實施方式是,請參閱圖14A,單一邊鏡腳902上設有的一結合模組40,而另一邊鏡腳904上則設置了一結合電極部件90,且該結合模組以及該結合電極部件分別於接觸頭部的內側設置有電極92以及94,因此,基於金屬框眼鏡的特性,該結合模組以及該結合電極只需分別於內部與鏡腳末端接觸的位置上設置電連接點,且確保裝設動作可達成電連接點與鏡腳的穩定接觸,如此一來,當結合模組以及結合電極部件皆裝設完成後,整個取樣迴路即完成,使用者只要戴上眼鏡,分置於兩側的電極就可藉由分別接觸頭部的兩側而取得腦電訊號,且來自該結合電極部件的電訊號會經由兩鏡腳902、904以及鏡框而傳至該結合模組40。 For example, one possible implementation manner is that, referring to FIG. 14A, a combining module 40 is disposed on a single side mirror foot 902, and a combined electrode member 90 is disposed on the other side mirror leg 904, and the combination is The module and the bonding electrode member are respectively provided with electrodes 92 and 94 on the inner side of the contact head. Therefore, based on the characteristics of the metal frame glasses, the bonding module and the bonding electrode need only be in contact with the end of the temple respectively. The electrical connection point is set, and the installation action ensures that the electrical connection point and the temple foot are stably contacted. Thus, when the combined module and the combined electrode component are all installed, the entire sampling circuit is completed, and the user only needs to Wearing the glasses, the electrodes placed on both sides can obtain the EEG signals by respectively contacting the two sides of the head, and the electrical signals from the combined electrode components are transmitted to the two mirror pins 902, 904 and the frame to The combination module 40.

透過這樣的方式,使用者只要購入結合模組及結合電極部件,當有需要進行測量時,再將結合模組及結合電極部件裝設於自己的眼鏡上,就可進行生理訊號的檢測,相當方便。 In this way, the user can purchase the bonding module and the combined electrode component, and when the measurement is needed, the bonding module and the bonding electrode component are mounted on the glasses, and the physiological signal can be detected. Convenience.

另一種可能實施方式是,請參閱圖14B,其顯示於兩眼之間設置電極的情形,鼻墊被使用作為電極的情形,在此,該鼻墊電極96,98可以是原本眼鏡結構中直接形成為與金屬鏡框相連的金屬材質鼻墊,也可以是利用包覆導電配件的方式而與金屬鏡框間形成電連接者,沒有限制。因此,就可利用鼻墊上的電極與結合模組上的電極92一起取得眼電訊號以及 腦電訊號,同樣是相當具有優勢的選擇。 Another possible implementation is to refer to FIG. 14B, which shows the case where an electrode is disposed between the eyes, and the nose pad is used as an electrode. Here, the nose pad electrodes 96, 98 may be directly in the original eyeglass structure. The metal nose pad formed to be connected to the metal frame may be electrically connected to the metal frame by covering the conductive member, and is not limited. Therefore, it is also an advantageous choice to use the electrodes on the nose pad to obtain the EO and EEG signals together with the electrodes 92 on the bonding module.

或者,也可以利用圖14C所示的眼鏡結構,此時,藉由在一側的鏡腳上設置結合模組40,以及在兩眼間區域處設置結合電極部件90,就可透過結合模組上的電極92接觸一側的頭部皮膚,以及結合電極部件上的電極(未顯示,位於眼鏡內側)接觸兩眼間區域的皮膚,例如,山根,而取得眼電訊號以及腦電訊號。 Alternatively, the eyeglass structure shown in FIG. 14C may be used. In this case, the bonding module 40 is disposed on one of the temples, and the bonding electrode member 90 is disposed at the inter-eye region. The upper electrode 92 contacts the skin of the head on one side, and the electrode on the electrode member (not shown, located inside the lens) contacts the skin of the area between the eyes, for example, the mountain root, to obtain an EOG signal and an EEG signal.

再一種可能的實施方式是,如圖14D所示,在單側鏡腳904上已事先形成有一電極9041,例如,如前所述,可利用更換鏡腳的方式,因此,只要再於另一邊鏡腳上裝設上結合模組40,就可透過電極92以及9041而取得腦電訊號。 In another possible implementation manner, as shown in FIG. 14D, an electrode 9041 has been formed in advance on the one-side temple 904. For example, as described above, the method of changing the temples can be utilized, and therefore, as long as the other side The upper module 40 is mounted on the temple, and the electroencephalogram signal can be obtained through the electrodes 92 and 9041.

又一種可能的實施方式是,如圖14E所示,在鏡腳904與頭部側面、及/或耳朵的皮膚間有穩定接觸的情形下,直接將鏡腳904實施作為電極,例如,透過鏡腳接觸V型凹陷的位置,再配合結合模組40上的電極92而取得腦電訊號。 In another possible embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14E, in the case where the temple 904 has stable contact with the side of the head and/or the skin of the ear, the temple 904 is directly implemented as an electrode, for example, a mirror. The foot contacts the position of the V-shaped recess, and then cooperates with the electrode 92 on the bonding module 40 to obtain an EEG signal.

因此,只要確定鏡框單元以及鏡腳中已具有的可導電部分已相互導通,就可透過上述的方式而方便地獲得生理訊號擷取功能,尤其原本已配戴金屬框眼鏡結構者,最簡單的狀況是只需裝上一個外接模組就可獲得生理訊號擷取功能,相當有利於提升大眾接受度。 Therefore, as long as it is determined that the conductive parts of the frame unit and the temples are electrically connected to each other, the physiological signal capturing function can be conveniently obtained through the above-mentioned manner, especially the one that has been worn with the metal frame glasses structure, the simplest The situation is that it is only necessary to install an external module to obtain the physiological signal acquisition function, which is quite beneficial to increase public acceptance.

在此,需要注意的是,雖然圖14A-14E中所繪的電極皆為朝向頭部方向,當在實際實施時,也可如前所述實施為向下接觸V型凹陷的位置,並且,無論是結合模組、或是結合電極部件都可實施為具有如前所述的耳朵接觸部分,以承載電極,進而確保電極與皮膚間的接觸,此外,如 圖14E中,當直接採用眼鏡結構的鏡腳當成電極時,該鏡腳上亦可設置有該耳朵接觸部分,以確保接觸的穩定性。 Here, it should be noted that although the electrodes depicted in FIGS. 14A-14E are all oriented toward the head, when actually implemented, the position of the V-shaped recess may be downwardly contacted as described above, and Either the bonding module or the combined electrode component can be implemented as having the ear contact portion as described above to carry the electrode, thereby ensuring contact between the electrode and the skin. Further, as shown in FIG. 14E, when the eyeglass structure is directly used When the temple is formed as an electrode, the ear contact portion may also be disposed on the temple to ensure the stability of the contact.

另外,針對本身即能達成訊號傳遞功能的眼鏡結構,本發明進一步提供另一種設置電極的可能性,也就是,透過外接的方式而設置電極,例如,利用與鏡腳相接的一外接元件,以將用來取得生理訊號的其中一個電極設置於該眼鏡結構的外部,例如,圖14F顯示了將外接元件930實施為耳戴形式的情形,其中,電極(未顯示)可設置於與鏡腳透過一連接線相連接的一耳內殼體920上,故藉由設置耳內殼體的動作,電極就達成與耳朵內部的接觸,或者,該外接元件930亦可實施為如圖14G所示的情形,其中,電極940被設置於與鏡腳相電結合的該外接元件930的表面上,因而可接觸如耳朵後方及/或乳突骨等位置。 In addition, the present invention further provides another possibility of providing an electrode for the eyeglass structure that can achieve the signal transmission function itself, that is, the electrode is disposed by an external connection, for example, by using an external component that is connected to the temple. One of the electrodes for obtaining the physiological signal is disposed outside the eyeglass structure. For example, FIG. 14F shows a case where the external component 930 is implemented in an ear-worn form, wherein an electrode (not shown) can be disposed on the temple foot. The inner ear shell 920 is connected through a connecting wire, so that the electrode can make contact with the inner portion of the ear by the action of providing the inner ear casing, or the external component 930 can also be implemented as shown in FIG. 14G. In the case where the electrode 940 is disposed on the surface of the external member 930 that is electrically coupled to the temple, it is possible to contact a position such as the back of the ear and/or the mastoid bone.

在此情形下,為了取得生理訊號,則有幾種選擇。其中一個選擇是,利用兩個電極進行生理訊號的擷取,此時,由於眼鏡結構本身即可傳遞訊號,故另一個電極可設置於眼鏡的任何位置,例如,該外接部件930連接的鏡腳上,鏡框單元上,或另一側的鏡腳上,皆可進行生理訊號擷取。 In this case, there are several options for obtaining a physiological signal. One of the options is to use two electrodes to perform physiological signal extraction. At this time, since the glasses structure itself can transmit signals, the other electrode can be disposed at any position of the glasses, for example, the temples connected by the external component 930. Physiological signal acquisition can be performed on the frame unit or on the mirror side of the other side.

另一種選擇則是,如前所述地,原有的眼鏡結構已具兩個電極而可取得電生理訊號,透過此外接元件所連接上的電極,則可因此而改變取樣位置、取樣組合範式、取樣訊號種類等,其中,同樣有取代原有其中一個電極,或是與原有電極一起進行訊號擷取兩種選擇,以在參考組合範式與雙極組合範式,以及單通道取樣迴路與雙通道取樣迴路之間改變。 Another option is that, as described above, the original spectacles structure has two electrodes for obtaining electrophysiological signals, and the electrodes connected to the external components can change the sampling position and the sampling combination paradigm. , sampling signal types, etc., which also replace one of the original electrodes, or with the original electrode for signal extraction two options, in the reference combination paradigm and bipolar combination paradigm, and single channel sampling loop and double The channel sampling loop changes.

在此,需注意地是,電極的數量並不受限於前述的實施方式,且由於眼鏡結構本身即能進行訊號傳導,故電極的設置位置也可根據測量 需求而有所改變,,例如,可以根據一般熟知的10-20腦波電極配置法(International 10-20 System)而設置電極,也可根據更多數量的電極配置法,或是設置於其他欲檢測的位置,可以有各種可能。 Here, it should be noted that the number of electrodes is not limited to the foregoing embodiment, and since the glasses structure itself can perform signal conduction, the position of the electrodes can also be changed according to measurement requirements, for example, The electrodes can be provided according to the well-known 10-20 brain wave electrode configuration method (International 10-20 System), or can be set according to a larger number of electrode configurations or at other locations to be detected, and various possibilities are possible.

根據本發明的再一構想,則是針對鏡腳做出進一步的改善。正如前述,本發明目的是在於,在不改變眼鏡結構之正面外觀的情形下,為眼鏡結構提供生理訊號擷取功能,因此,鏡腳將是最適合執行改進的位置。 According to still another aspect of the present invention, a further improvement is made to the temples. As stated above, the object of the present invention is to provide a physiological signal capture function for the spectacles structure without changing the frontal appearance of the spectacles structure, and therefore the temples will be the most suitable position for performing the improvement.

請參閱圖15,其顯示根據本發明一較佳實施例的一眼鏡組合,其中,一眼鏡結構具有一鏡框單元以及二鏡腳,在此,特別地是,其中一鏡腳實施為具有一可替換部分1100,以及相對應的一結合件1200,當兩者相結合時,可形成完整的鏡腳外型。 Referring to FIG. 15 , a lens assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. The eyeglass structure has a frame unit and two mirror legs. Here, in particular, one of the temples is configured to have a lens. The replacement portion 1100, and a corresponding coupling member 1200, when combined, form a complete temple shape.

在本發明的構想中,即希望透過該可替換部分的設計而讓眼鏡結構可根據需求而進行改變,亦即,將該可替換部分取代為不同的取代部分,以提供更多可能的生理訊號擷取功能。 In the concept of the present invention, it is desirable to allow the spectacles structure to be changed as needed by the design of the replaceable portion, that is, to replace the replaceable portion with a different replacement portion to provide more possible physiological signals. Capture function.

在其中一個實施例中,該取代部分被實施為一光感測器模組130,且該光感測器模組中已包含了至少部分用以擷取生理訊號所需的電路系統及元件,在此情形下,當眼鏡結構配戴於使用者頭上時,設置於表面的光感測器132將位在耳朵附近的位置,例如,耳朵上方、V型凹陷、或耳朵後方,並透過此位置而取得血液生理訊號,例如,脈波訊號,血氧濃度等,且透過分析脈波訊號就可獲得心率。 In one embodiment, the replacement portion is implemented as a photo sensor module 130, and the photo sensor module includes at least part of circuitry and components required for capturing physiological signals. In this case, when the eyeglass structure is worn on the user's head, the light sensor 132 disposed on the surface will be located near the ear, for example, above the ear, V-shaped depression, or behind the ear, and through this position. The blood physiological signals, such as pulse wave signals, blood oxygen concentration, etc., are obtained, and the heart rate can be obtained by analyzing the pulse wave signals.

此種實施方式的優勢在於,即使只是普通的眼鏡結構,只要於鏡腳處設置該可替換部分,就可簡單地透過機械結合的方式,就獲得光感測器所提供的生理資訊,例如,心率,也因此,只要配戴上眼鏡,就可輕 鬆且自然地於日常生活中獲得生理資訊;而且,進一步地,相對於配戴於手上的形式,頭部的移動相對較少,將可提供更穩定的訊號來源。 An advantage of such an embodiment is that even if only a common eyeglass structure is provided, the physiological information provided by the light sensor can be obtained simply by mechanically bonding, as long as the replaceable portion is provided at the temple. For example, Heart rate, therefore, as long as you wear glasses, you can easily and naturally obtain physiological information in daily life; and, further, the movement of the head is relatively small compared to the form worn on the hand. Provide a more stable source of signals.

在另一實施例中,該取代部分被實施為一電極模組,且該電極模組中已包含了至少部分用以擷取電生理訊號所需的電路系統及元件,舉例而言,其中一種情形是,電極模組140上可同時具有二個同時接觸頭部皮膚的電極141,142,以取得局部的肌電訊號、皮膚電訊號,腦電訊號等;或者,另一種情形是,電極模組150於一側具有接觸頭部皮膚的電極152,而另一個電極(未顯示)則可供上肢進行接觸,以取得心電訊號。如此一來,單純透過機械結合的替換動作就可讓眼鏡取得電生理訊號擷取功能。 In another embodiment, the replacement portion is implemented as an electrode module, and the electrode module includes at least part of circuitry and components required for capturing electrophysiological signals, for example, one of In the case, the electrode module 140 can have two electrodes 141, 142 simultaneously contacting the skin of the head to obtain local myoelectric signals, skin electrical signals, brain electrical signals, etc.; or, in another case, the electrode mold The group 150 has an electrode 152 on one side that contacts the skin of the head, and the other electrode (not shown) is accessible to the upper limb to obtain an electrocardiogram. In this way, the electro-physiological signal acquisition function can be obtained by simply replacing the mechanically combined replacement action.

另一方面,具有該可替換部分的眼鏡結構亦可以是如前所述之已具有電路系統以及生理感測元件的眼鏡結構。 Alternatively, the spectacles structure having the replaceable portion can be an spectacles structure having circuitry and physiological sensing elements as previously described.

舉例而言,在一實施例中,該取代部分可被用來進行電極型態的改變,例如,該可替換部分上原已具有電極,以配合眼鏡上已有的其他電極進行訊號擷取。由於大腦分為許多區域,且不同大腦區域掌管著人體不同的生理活動,而透過電極所取得的腦部活動就是電極位置下方之大腦皮質區域的腦部活動,因此,若欲瞭解不同區域的大腦皮質活動,就必須透過改變電極位置的方式,而此可替換部分就提供了這樣的可能性,例如,該取代部分162也可實施為向上延伸,而使電極可取得顳葉區的腦部活動,或者,該取代部分164可實施為向後延伸距離較長而使電極可取得頭部後方大腦皮質枕葉區的腦部活動。因此,透過簡單的替換方式就可增加生理訊號擷取的多樣性。在此,電極的設置位置處可能出現毛髮遮蔽時,例如,頭部後方、或耳朵上方,則可藉由採用如上所述的接觸確保結構,例如, 針狀電極、分散電極等,而確保電極與皮膚間的接觸。 For example, in one embodiment, the replacement portion can be used to effect a change in electrode type, for example, the replaceable portion already has an electrode to match the other electrodes already present on the lens for signal extraction. Since the brain is divided into many regions, and different brain regions are in charge of different physiological activities of the human body, the brain activity obtained through the electrodes is the brain activity in the cerebral cortex region below the electrode position. Therefore, if you want to understand the brains of different regions, Cortical activity must be done by changing the position of the electrode, and this replaceable portion provides the possibility that, for example, the replacement portion 162 can also be implemented to extend upwardly so that the electrode can obtain brain activity in the temporal region. Alternatively, the replacement portion 164 can be implemented to extend the distance back longer so that the electrode can obtain brain activity in the occipital region of the cerebral cortex behind the head. Therefore, the diversity of physiological signal acquisition can be increased by simple replacement. Here, when hair shading may occur at the position where the electrode is disposed, for example, behind the head or above the ear, the electrode may be secured by using the contact securing structure as described above, for example, a needle electrode, a dispersion electrode, or the like. Contact with the skin.

進一步地,該取代部分也可被用來改變或增加所擷取的生理訊號,舉例而言,該取代部分170可提供光感測器172,而讓原有的眼鏡結構增加取得血液生理訊號的功能;或者,若眼鏡結構上原本僅另一側的鏡腳及/或鏡框單元上具有電極,則該取代部分180可用來在該側鏡腳上提供電極182,而增加取得腦電訊號的位置;或者,將原具有電極的該可替換部分換上不具任何生理感測元件的該取代部分,而改變腦電訊號的取樣位置,例如,從頭部兩側取得腦電訊號變為自兩眼間區域及頭部一側取得腦電訊號。因此,可以有各種可能。 Further, the substitution portion can also be used to change or increase the physiological signal captured. For example, the replacement portion 170 can provide the photo sensor 172, and the original lens structure can increase the blood physiological signal. Function; or, if the lens structure has an electrode on only the other side of the temple and/or the frame unit, the replacement portion 180 can be used to provide the electrode 182 on the side mirror to increase the position of the EEG signal. Or, replacing the replaceable portion of the original electrode with the replacement portion without any physiological sensing element, and changing the sampling position of the electroencephalogram signal, for example, obtaining the EEG signal from both sides of the head becomes from the two eyes The brain and the head side get the EEG signal. Therefore, there are various possibilities.

在此,需注意地是,上述實施例中所述的該取代部分僅是作為舉例之用,並非作為限制,其可根據與其結合之眼鏡結構的實際設計及架構而有各種變化,不僅限於上述的情形,只要可因更換上該取代部分而改變眼鏡結構的生理訊號擷取功能者,皆屬本發明可應用的範疇。 Herein, it should be noted that the substituted portions described in the above embodiments are for illustrative purposes only, and are not limiting, and may vary depending on the actual design and architecture of the eyeglass structure with which it is combined, and are not limited to the above. In the case where the physiological signal capturing function of the eyeglass structure can be changed by replacing the replacement portion, it is applicable to the scope of the present invention.

另外,上述的情形亦可結合實施,例如,可在替換部分中同時設置光感測器以及電極,或者可在改變電極型態的同時亦增設光感測器等,都是可行的方式,沒有限制。 In addition, the above situation may also be implemented in combination. For example, the photo sensor and the electrode may be simultaneously disposed in the replacement portion, or the photo sensor may be added while changing the electrode type, etc., which are feasible methods, and limit.

因此,透過該取代部分,將可進一步為眼鏡結構賦予了更多的檢測可能性,同樣是相當具優勢的選擇。 Therefore, through the substitution portion, it is possible to further impart more detection possibilities to the spectacles structure, which is also a quite advantageous option.

而除了利用取代可替代部分的方式而使眼鏡結構獲得生理訊號擷取功能外,亦可採用外部結合的方式,如圖16A-16B所示,一眼鏡結構上可結合上一結合模組40,而該結合模組本身即具有完整的生理訊號擷取功能,舉例而言,圖16A所示之結合模組上已具有二電極1110以及1112,可執 行電生理訊號擷取功能,例如,取得腦電訊號,眼電訊號,肌電訊號,及/或皮膚電訊號,或者,替代地,該結合模組上的電極也可設置為一個接觸頭部皮膚,而另一個可供上肢接觸,以取得心電訊號;另外,圖16B則顯示了結合模組提供光感測器1114的示意圖,而透過設置光感測器,該結合模組就可取得血液生理訊號,進而獲得脈波訊號、血氧濃度等。當然,也可以一個結合模組上同時具有電極以及光感測器,沒有限制。 In addition to using the method of replacing the replaceable part to obtain the physiological signal acquisition function of the eyeglass structure, an external combination can also be adopted. As shown in FIG. 16A-16B, a pair of eyeglasses can be combined with the upper combination module 40. The combination module itself has a complete physiological signal acquisition function. For example, the combination module shown in FIG. 16A has two electrodes 1110 and 1112, and can perform an electrophysiological signal acquisition function, for example, obtaining a brain. Electrical signal, EO, EMG, and/or cutaneous telecommunication, or, alternatively, the electrodes on the splicing module can also be placed in contact with the head skin and the other for upper limb contact to obtain The electrocardiogram signal; in addition, FIG. 16B shows a schematic diagram of the optical sensor 1114 provided by the binding module, and by setting the photo sensor, the combining module can obtain the blood physiological signal, thereby obtaining the pulse wave signal and blood oxygen. Concentration, etc. Of course, it is also possible to have both an electrode and a photo sensor on a combined module, without limitation.

在一較佳實施例中,如圖16C所示,該結合模組40實施為具有一彎曲部分,可在結合於鏡腳上時朝向頭部後方,並具有一耳戴結構,例如,耳內殼體920,可結合於耳朵上,其中,一個電極1115設置於該彎曲部分的內側,且實施為分散的形式,以克服毛髮的遮蔽,在此,進一步地,各個分散接觸點還可實施為可伸縮的形式,更有助於達成與皮膚間的接觸,另一個電極1116則設置於該耳戴結構上,如此一來,設置於耳戴結構的電極被視為參考電極,以及結合模組上的電極則被視為活動偵測電極,可取得大腦皮質枕葉區的腦電訊號;或者,替代地,該結合模組也可實施為與V型凹陷位置接觸,如此一來,就可取得大腦皮質顳葉區的腦電訊號。 In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 16C, the bonding module 40 is implemented to have a curved portion that faces the rear of the head when coupled to the temple and has an ear-wearing structure, for example, in the ear. The housing 920 can be coupled to the ear, wherein an electrode 1115 is disposed on the inner side of the curved portion and is implemented in a dispersed form to overcome the shading of the hair. Further, each of the discrete contact points can also be implemented as The retractable form is more conducive to achieving contact with the skin, and the other electrode 1116 is disposed on the ear-wearing structure, so that the electrode disposed on the ear-wearing structure is regarded as the reference electrode, and the bonding module The upper electrode is regarded as an activity detecting electrode, and an electroencephalogram signal of the occipital region of the cerebral cortex can be obtained; or, alternatively, the bonding module can also be implemented to be in contact with the V-shaped recessed position, so that Obtain brain signals from the temporal lobes of the cerebral cortex.

在此,具優勢地是,電路系統可設置於該結合模組、及/或該耳戴結構中,沒有限制,而該結合模組則可實施為插接、或套設於鏡腳上,尤其較佳地是,於其耳朵接觸部分上實施為具有如前所述的調整機制,以對準不同使用者的相同位置,例如,V型凹陷,進而讓使用更為方便,故同樣沒有限制。 Advantageously, the circuit system can be disposed in the bonding module and/or the ear wearing structure without limitation, and the bonding module can be implemented as a plug or a sleeve. Particularly preferably, the ear contact portion is implemented with an adjustment mechanism as described above to align the same position of different users, for example, a V-shaped depression, thereby making the use more convenient, so there is no limitation. .

在此,在設置該結合模組時,較佳地是,選擇讓電極及/或光感測器與頭部間的相對位置可持續維持穩定者,例如,耳朵上方可透過鏡腳 靠置於耳朵的動作而獲得穩定的力量,或是耳後可利用結合模組的外型而達成穩定接觸的位置。 Here, when the bonding module is disposed, it is preferable to select that the relative position between the electrode and/or the photo sensor and the head can be stably maintained, for example, the top of the ear can be placed through the temple A stable force is obtained by the action of the ear, or a position where the contact of the module is combined to achieve a stable contact position.

而透過這樣的方式,無論使用者的眼鏡結構為何種形式,都將可透過該結合模組而獲得生理訊號擷取功能,不但使用方便,更有助於增加使用者的接受度,是相當具有優勢的方式。 In this way, regardless of the form of the user's eyeglass structure, the physiological signal acquisition function can be obtained through the combined module, which is convenient to use and helps to increase the user's acceptance. The way of advantage.

進一步地,也可實施為透過耳戴結構配合其他的穿戴結構而一起取得生理訊號。舉例而言,在一較佳實施例中,特別地是,耳戴結構可再配合上可同時適應設置於頸部及頭部的一穿戴結構,如圖17A-17C所示,亦即,該穿戴結構可因應使用需求而具選擇地被設置於頸部、或是頭部,且配戴於頭部時,可選擇穿戴結構的設置於額頭前方(圖17C)、設置於頭頂、或是設置於頭部後方,沒有限制。 Further, it can also be implemented to obtain physiological signals together through the ear wearing structure and other wearing structures. For example, in a preferred embodiment, in particular, the ear-wearing structure can be reconfigured to accommodate a wearable structure disposed on the neck and the head simultaneously, as shown in FIGS. 17A-17C, that is, the The wearing structure can be selectively placed on the neck or the head according to the needs of use, and when worn on the head, the wearable structure can be set in front of the forehead (Fig. 17C), set on the top of the head, or set. There is no limit behind the head.

在此,該穿戴結構實施為具有二端部,以及連接二端部的一彎曲部分,亦即,類似C的形狀,而透過該彎曲部分,該穿戴結構即可適應被設置於頸部或頭部,因此,較佳地是,該彎曲部分會至少部分符合頸部後方的曲線,以使得該穿戴結構在環繞頸部時,該二端部會落在頸部的兩側及/或前方,形成安定的設置方式;另一方面,在設置於頭部時,該彎曲部分則可符合頭部前方、上方及/或後方的曲線,而該二端部則是會落在頭部的兩側,以達成與頭部的穩定結合。 Here, the wearing structure is implemented to have two end portions, and a curved portion connecting the two end portions, that is, a shape similar to C, and the wearing structure can be adapted to be disposed on the neck or the head through the curved portion. Preferably, the curved portion at least partially conforms to the curve behind the neck such that the wear portion falls on both sides and/or the front of the neck when the neck is wrapped around the neck. Forming a stable setting; on the other hand, when placed on the head, the curved portion can conform to the curve in front of, above and/or behind the head, and the two ends will fall on both sides of the head. To achieve a stable combination with the head.

首先,當實施為頸戴形式時,由於是利用頸部作為支撐,故其體積及形狀可有較自由的變化,且相較於設置於臂戴形式、或腕戴形式,除了與耳戴結構間的連接線長度被縮短外,也使得手部的活動不會受到接線的影響,增加了使用方便性,而且,這樣的頸戴形式與一般配戴項鍊無 異,使用者相當容易適應。 Firstly, when implemented in a neck-wearing form, since the neck is used as a support, the volume and shape thereof can be freely changed, and compared with the arm-worn form or the wrist-worn form, except for the ear-wearing structure. The length of the connecting line is shortened, and the movement of the hand is not affected by the wiring, which increases the convenience of use. Moreover, such a neck wearing form is no different from that of a general wearing necklace, and the user is quite easy to adapt.

再者,當實施為頭戴形式,由於增加了與頭部接觸的部位,故也增加了可取得更多不同大腦部位皮質的腦電訊號的可能,因此,也讓使用者可藉由選擇不同的配戴位置而自行決定與取得的腦電訊號,例如,參考圖5A,當電極設置於額頭位置時可取得額葉區腦電訊號,當設置於頭部上方時可取得頂葉區腦電訊號,當設在頭部後方時可取得枕葉區腦電訊號,以及當電極設置於該兩端部上時,可取得顳葉區腦電訊號,而當電極設置於會接觸眼部周圍的部分上時,例如,額頭、太陽穴等位置,還可同時取得眼電訊號。 Moreover, when implemented as a head-wearing form, the position of contact with the head is increased, so that the possibility of obtaining more brain signals of the cortex of different brain parts is also increased, and therefore, the user can also select differently. According to FIG. 5A, the frontal lobe EEG signal can be obtained when the electrode is placed at the forehead position, and the parietal region brain telecommunications can be obtained when the electrode is placed above the head. No. When the head is located behind the head, the occipital region EEG signal can be obtained, and when the electrode is disposed on the both ends, the temporal region EEG signal can be obtained, and when the electrode is disposed around the eye contact In some cases, for example, the forehead, the temple, and the like, the EOG can also be obtained at the same time.

另外,進一步地,接觸頭部的電極也可實施為與耳戴結構上的電極一起取得腦電訊號,沒有限制,而且,當穿戴結構上電極的接觸位置具有毛髮時,例如,頭頂、頭部後方、頭部側面等位置,則可如前所述地,採用接觸確保結構,例如,實施為分散式電極、具凸起電極、及/或伸縮形式電極等,以幫助於穿過毛髮,而使電極與皮膚間的接觸困難度降低。 In addition, the electrode contacting the head may also be implemented to obtain an electroencephalogram signal together with the electrode on the ear-wearing structure, without limitation, and when the contact position of the electrode on the wearing structure has hair, for example, the head and the head The position of the rear side, the side of the head, and the like may be as described above, using a contact securing structure, for example, as a dispersion electrode, a bump electrode, and/or a telescopic electrode, to help pass through the hair. The difficulty in contacting the electrode with the skin is lowered.

在此,穿戴結構如何同時適應被穿戴於頸部以及頭部,則有不同的實施可能,舉例而言,可透過選擇材質,例如,選用具彈性的材質以對頭部兩側施力,進而達到固定效果,如彈性鋼、彈性塑膠等材質;也可透過結構設計,例如,可剛好適合架設於耳廓上,或是可具有防止移動的結構等;及/或亦可透過增設輔助構件而達成與頭部間的穩定接觸,例如,可藉由增設將二端部拉緊的結構,如彈性帶,或可在穿戴結構的內面增設緩衝結構等方式而幫助穿戴結構穩定維持於頭上,故同樣沒有限制。再進一步地,若是將電路主要分布於二端部,則還可實施為該彎曲部分可更換, 以更換不同的形狀、材質、尺寸、顏色等,讓使用上更為方便,另一方面,相對地,也可因此而實施為更換二端部,透過更換不同的電路而改變可執行的功能,因此,可以有各種可能,沒有限制。 Here, the wearing structure can be adapted to be worn on the neck and the head at the same time, and there are different implementation possibilities. For example, the material can be applied to the sides of the head by selecting a material, for example, an elastic material. Achieving a fixed effect, such as elastic steel, elastic plastic, etc.; also through structural design, for example, can be just fit to be placed on the auricle, or can have a structure to prevent movement; and/or can also be added by adding auxiliary members Achieving stable contact with the head, for example, by adding a structure that tensions the two ends, such as an elastic band, or by adding a cushioning structure to the inner surface of the wearing structure, the wearable structure can be stably maintained on the head. Therefore, there is no limit. Further, if the circuit is mainly distributed at the two ends, the curved portion can be replaced to replace different shapes, materials, sizes, colors, etc., so that the use is more convenient, on the other hand, relative Therefore, it is also possible to implement the replacement of the two end portions, and the executable functions can be changed by replacing different circuits. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no limitations.

此外,透過如此的結構設計,由於與一般配戴項鍊的感覺無異,故使用者將不會覺得有額外的負擔,而另一方面,還可增加電路的容置空間,以增加可提供的功能,例如,可配置大容量的電池,以延長使用時間,可提供音樂播放功能,可提供GPS定位功能,及/或還可如圖17A所示增加控制介面於容易接觸到的二端部等,都是相當具優勢的選擇。 In addition, through such a structural design, since the feeling of wearing a necklace is the same, the user will not feel an extra burden, and on the other hand, the accommodation space of the circuit can be increased to increase the available space. Features, for example, configurable large-capacity batteries for extended usage, music playback, GPS positioning, and/or additional control interface for easy access to both ends as shown in Figure 17A , are quite advantageous choices.

再進一步,也可實施為兩個耳戴結構的形式。而如前所述,此種形式也可實施為可與一可攜式電子裝置溝通,例如,以耳機插孔、藍芽等有線或無線方式與智慧型手機,平板電腦等外部電子裝置進行溝通,如此一來,在具有發聲元件(空氣傳導式或骨傳導式)以及收音元件的情形下,就可作為免持聽筒,以用於通話,也可播放來自可攜式電子裝置的音樂等;此外,進一步地,透過設置振動模組,發聲元件(空氣傳導式或骨傳導式),顯示元件,以及發光元件等,還可進一步實施作為該可攜式電子裝置的資訊提供介面,例如,用於提供來電提醒、手機訊息通知等,更加融入使用者的日常生活,至於訊息的提供則可透過聲音、振動、發光、鏡片顯示等各種方式,沒有限制。 Still further, it can also be implemented in the form of two ear-wearing structures. As mentioned above, this form can also be implemented to communicate with a portable electronic device, for example, by wired or wireless means such as a headphone jack or a Bluetooth device, to communicate with external electronic devices such as smart phones and tablets. In this way, in the case of having a sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction type) and a sound pickup element, it can be used as a hands-free handset for talking, and can also play music from a portable electronic device; Further, further, by providing a vibration module, a sounding element (air conduction type or bone conduction type), a display element, and a light emitting element, etc., an information providing interface as the portable electronic device can be further implemented, for example, In order to provide call reminders, mobile phone message notifications, etc., it is more integrated into the daily life of the user. As for the provision of information, there are various restrictions such as sound, vibration, illumination, and lens display.

進一步地,當實施為具有耳機功能時,尤其是用於聽音樂時,較佳就是採用雙耳配戴的形式,以提供使用者較佳的聽覺效果,舉例而言,可在兩個耳廓內皆設置耳內殼體,並透過兩者間的無線連接、或有線連接而提供音樂,例如,分為左右聲道,而使音樂具有立體聲效果,再者,還 可實施為耳機內具記憶體可儲存音樂並提供播放功能,如此一來,即使不與可攜式電子裝置進行溝通,亦可聆聽音樂,讓使用更為方便。 Further, when implemented to have a headphone function, especially for listening to music, it is preferably in the form of a binaural wear to provide a better hearing effect for the user, for example, in two auricles. The inner casing is provided inside, and the music is provided through a wireless connection or a wired connection between the two, for example, divided into left and right channels, so that the music has a stereo effect, and further, it can be implemented as a memory in the earphone. The body can store music and provide playback functions, so that even if you don't communicate with the portable electronic device, you can listen to the music and make it easier to use.

據此,在一較佳實施例中,則是實施為在單邊的耳戴結構中設置處理器模組以及無線傳輸模組,例如,藍芽,形成一耳戴裝置,以與外部的可攜式電子裝置進行溝通,例如,將所取得的生理訊號、資訊傳送至可攜式電子裝置,進而提供予使用者,另一方面,除了有關生理訊號擷取功能外,則亦同時具有發聲元件,以及一電訊號傳輸埠,以接收來自外部的訊號,例如,音頻訊號,而在此,該音頻訊號的來源則有數種不同的選擇,舉例而言,可來自連接至該電訊號傳輸埠的另一耳戴裝置,例如,該另一耳戴裝置中所儲存的音頻訊號;也可來自外部的可攜式電子裝置,且可以是透過有線或無線方式而取得,例如,可以是該另一耳戴裝置以連接線、或以無線方式連接至該可攜式電子裝置而取得音頻訊號後,再連接至該電訊號傳輸埠,或替代地,亦可實施為,由該電訊號傳輸埠有線連接至該可攜式電子裝置而取得音頻訊號,皆是可能的選擇。 Accordingly, in a preferred embodiment, the processor module and the wireless transmission module are disposed in a single-sided ear-worn structure, for example, a Bluetooth device, and an ear-wearing device is formed to be externally The portable electronic device communicates, for example, the acquired physiological signals and information are transmitted to the portable electronic device, and then provided to the user. On the other hand, in addition to the physiological signal capturing function, the sounding component is also provided. And a signal transmission port for receiving signals from the outside, for example, an audio signal, wherein the source of the audio signal has several different options, for example, from the connection to the telecommunication transmission port. Another ear-wearing device, for example, an audio signal stored in the other ear-wearing device; or an external portable electronic device, and may be obtained by wired or wireless means, for example, may be the other The earphone device is connected to the portable electronic device by a connecting cable or wirelessly connected to the portable electronic device, and then connected to the electrical signal transmitting device, or alternatively, can be implemented as The electrical signal is connected by a wired transmission port to the portable electronic device acquires an audio signal, are all possible choices.

至於音頻訊號的播放,則是由位於該另一耳戴裝置中的處理器模組以及音頻控制電路來執行,其中,透過兩個耳戴裝置的電訊號傳輸埠間所達成的電連接,該音頻控制電路就可驅動發聲元件執行音頻播放,進一步地,當該另一耳戴裝置中亦具有發聲元件時,即可達成立體聲的效果。 As for the playback of the audio signal, it is performed by a processor module and an audio control circuit located in the other ear-wearing device, wherein the electrical connection is achieved through the electrical signal transmission between the two ear-wearing devices. The audio control circuit can drive the sounding element to perform audio playback, and further, when the other earwear device also has a sounding element, a stereo effect can be achieved.

而也由於如此之生理訊號擷取電路以及音頻控制電路分置於兩個耳戴裝置的設計,具優勢地是,兩邊耳戴裝置間的連接可實施為可移除形式,如此一來,舉例而言,當使用者僅需要進行生理訊號檢測時,就可將另一邊耳戴裝置移除,而當有需要聽音樂時,則只需接上另一邊的耳戴 裝置(並連接至可攜式電子裝置)即可,使用上相當方便,另外,該另一耳戴裝置亦可單獨使用而提供單耳音樂播放功能,再進一步,若該另一耳戴裝置亦具備有收音元件,則該另一耳戴裝置單獨還可被使用作為該可攜式電子裝置的耳機麥克風;此外,該另一邊耳戴裝置上亦可實施為具有電極而可由兩邊耳戴裝置同時進行生理訊號的擷取,同樣沒有限制,而在此情形下,兩個耳戴結構間的連接則除了音頻訊號的傳輸外,亦可被用來傳輸生理訊號。 Since the physiological signal capturing circuit and the audio control circuit are separately disposed in the design of the two ear-wearing devices, it is advantageous that the connection between the two ear-wearing devices can be implemented as a removable form, so that an example is given. In other words, when the user only needs to perform physiological signal detection, the other ear wearing device can be removed, and when there is a need to listen to music, it is only necessary to connect the other ear device (and connect to the portable device). The electronic device can be used conveniently, and the other ear-wearing device can also be used alone to provide a single-ear music playing function. Further, if the other ear-wearing device is also provided with a sound collecting component, the The other ear-wearing device can also be used as the earphone microphone of the portable electronic device. In addition, the other-side ear-wearing device can also be implemented as an electrode having the electrodes and the physiological signals can be simultaneously extracted by the two ear-wearing devices. There is also no limitation, and in this case, the connection between the two ear-wearing structures can be used to transmit physiological signals in addition to the transmission of audio signals.

因此,透過這樣的設計,二個耳戴裝置除了可結合使用外,亦可單獨使用,完全可因應使用者不同時間的使用需求改變而應變,是相當具有優勢的組合。 Therefore, through such a design, the two earwear devices can be used alone, in addition to being used in combination, and can be strained according to changes in the user's use requirements at different times, which is a rather advantageous combination.

在此需要注意地是,基於使用目的及設計需求的不同,二個耳戴裝置間的傳輸,包括音頻訊號傳輸以及生理訊號傳輸,亦可有各種組合可能,舉例而言,在單耳即可取得生理訊號的情形下,兩裝置間的有線連接可僅用於傳輸音頻訊號,而當生理訊號的取得需要透過分別設置於兩裝置上的生理感測元件,例如,電極,而共同達成時,則實施為生理訊號需透過有線方式傳輸,而在此情形下,音頻訊號則可實施為透過有線、或無線的方式傳輸,沒有限制, It should be noted that, depending on the purpose of use and the design requirements, the transmission between the two ear-wear devices, including audio signal transmission and physiological signal transmission, may also have various combinations, for example, in a single ear. In the case of obtaining a physiological signal, the wired connection between the two devices can be used only for transmitting the audio signal, and when the physiological signal is acquired through the physiological sensing elements respectively disposed on the two devices, for example, electrodes, The physiological signal is transmitted through a wired transmission, and in this case, the audio signal can be implemented to be transmitted by wire or wirelessly, without limitation.

至於用來控制音頻的播放、決定是否進行無線連接的操作介面,則是可根據需求而設置於方便使用者使用的位置,例如,耳戴裝置與可攜式電子裝置的連接線上,兩個耳戴裝置的連接線上,或是如前所述可設置於頸部或頭部的穿戴結構上等,沒有限制。 As for the operation interface for controlling the playing of audio and determining whether to make a wireless connection, it can be set at a position convenient for the user according to requirements, for example, a connecting line between the ear wearing device and the portable electronic device, two ears. There is no limitation on the connecting line of the wearing device, or the wearing structure which can be set on the neck or the head as described above.

另一方面,當實施為雙耳戴形式時,無論兩邊的耳戴結構間實 施為有線或無線連接,對於音頻播放以及生理訊號擷取的控制,都可以有下列的選擇,例如,可實施為一邊耳戴結構中的電路控制生理訊號,另一邊的耳戴結構中的電路則控制聲音的播放,也可實施為由一邊耳戴結構中的電路同時控制生理訊號擷取及聲音播放,沒有限制;再者,有關電極的配置,可實施為僅單邊的耳戴結構上設置電極進行生理訊號擷取,或者,亦可實施為兩邊的耳戴結構上皆設置有電極,例如,可以是兩邊的電極一起合作取得腦電訊號,或是兩個耳戴結構分別獨立進行腦電訊號的擷取,或是根據需求不同而透過設定進行改變等,同樣沒有限制。 On the other hand, when implemented in a double-eared form, whether the two-side ear-wearing structure is implemented as a wired or wireless connection, for audio playback and physiological signal acquisition control, the following options may be selected, for example, as The circuit in the ear-wearing structure controls the physiological signal, and the circuit in the ear-wearing structure on the other side controls the playing of the sound, and can also be implemented as a circuit in the ear-wearing structure to simultaneously control the physiological signal capturing and sound playing, without limitation. Further, the arrangement of the electrodes may be implemented by arranging electrodes on the unilateral ear-wearing structure for physiological signal extraction, or alternatively, the electrodes on both sides of the ear-wearing structure may be provided with electrodes, for example, may be two sides The electrodes cooperate to obtain the EEG signal, or the two ear-wearing structures independently perform the brain-electric signal acquisition, or change according to the requirements, and there is no limitation.

接下來則敘述根據本發明之眼鏡結構的應用範圍。 Next, the application range of the spectacles structure according to the present invention will be described.

如上所述,根據本發明的眼鏡結構依照電極設置位置的不同,可取得各種的電生理訊號,例如,腦電訊號,眼電訊號,肌電訊號,皮膚電訊號,心電訊號,且若可額外設置光感測器,則可取得血液生理訊號,例如,脈波訊號,血氧濃度等,再配合上眼鏡結構適合於長期配戴於臉上,使得根據本發明的眼鏡結構有各種的應用可能。 As described above, the spectacles structure according to the present invention can obtain various electrophysiological signals, such as an electroencephalogram signal, an ocular electrical signal, a myoelectric signal, a skin electrical signal, an electrocardiogram signal, and the like, depending on the position at which the electrodes are disposed. By additionally providing a light sensor, blood physiological signals, such as pulse wave signals, blood oxygen concentration, etc., can be obtained, and the eyeglass structure is suitable for long-term wear on the face, so that the eyeglass structure according to the present invention has various applications. may.

舉例而言,可應用於神經生理回饋程序。神經生理回饋常見的目的包括,但不限制於,放鬆,以及注意力改善等,而神經生理回饋最主要參考的生理資訊就是利用測量腦電訊號而取得腦部活動,而透過本發明的眼鏡結構來設置電極,不但電極的設置變得相當方便,也使得用於改善身心狀況的神經生理回饋程序可在任何時間、地點進行。 For example, it can be applied to a neurophysiological feedback program. The common purposes of neurophysiological feedback include, but are not limited to, relaxation, and improvement of attention, etc., and the physiological information most importantly referred to by neurophysiological feedback is to obtain brain activity by measuring electroencephalogram signals, and the lens structure through the present invention. To set the electrodes, not only the setting of the electrodes becomes quite convenient, but also the neurophysiological feedback procedure for improving the physical and mental condition can be performed at any time and place.

另外,也有一種神經生理回饋的目的在於訓練左右腦的平衡、或是瞭解左右腦間是否同步,而此種情形則特別適合採用本發明的眼鏡形式腦電檢測裝置,因為,眼鏡原有的結構就具有分別架設於二個耳朵上的 鏡腳,可分別接觸頭部兩側,例如,大腦皮質顳葉區(於兩側鏡腳上設置接觸顳葉區的電極),或是大腦皮質枕葉區(於兩鏡腳上皆設置如圖11E的鏡腳向後彎曲結構),或是大腦皮質額葉區(利用鏡框上緣接觸眼眶上方)等,因此,只需適當地配置電極位置就可自然地分別獲得左右半腦的活動情形,例如,可設置共同的一參考電極,例如,於鏡腳末端接觸乳突骨的位置,或是設置於外接的耳戴結構上,並分別與不同鏡腳上的單個電極形成取樣迴路(雙通道的參考組合範式);或者,也可於兩側鏡腳上皆設置一參考電極,以與同側或另一側鏡腳上的電極形成取樣通道,同樣都可取得不同半腦的活動情形(雙通道的參考組合範式);或者,也可於每支鏡腳上皆設置二個電極,並讓單側鏡腳上的二個電極形成單個取樣通道,就可分別取得不同半腦的活動情形(雙通道的雙極組合範式)。 In addition, there is also a neurophysiological feedback aimed at training the balance of the left and right brains, or understanding whether the left and right brains are synchronized, and this case is particularly suitable for the use of the spectacles-based EEG detection device of the present invention because the original structure of the glasses The temples are respectively mounted on the two ears, and can be respectively contacted on both sides of the head, for example, the cerebral cortex and the temporal region (the electrodes contacting the temporal region on the temples on both sides), or the cerebral cortex The area (the rearward curved structure of the temple as shown in Figure 11E is placed on both mirrors), or the frontal area of the cerebral cortex (using the upper edge of the frame to contact the top of the eyelid), so it is only necessary to properly configure the electrode position. The ground can obtain the activity of the left and right hemispheres respectively. For example, a common reference electrode can be set, for example, at the end of the temple to contact the mastoid bone, or on the external earwear structure, and respectively with different temples. The single electrode on the top forms a sampling loop (two-channel reference combination paradigm); or a reference electrode can be placed on both sides of the temple to form an electrode on the same side or the other side of the temple The sample channel can also achieve different hemisphere activity (two-channel reference combination paradigm); or, two electrodes can be placed on each temple, and two electrodes on one side of the temple are formed. With a single sampling channel, the activity of different hemispheres can be obtained separately (two-channel bipolar combination paradigm).

除了瞭解左右半腦活動情形外,當電極被設置於較接近眼睛的位置時,例如,鏡框與眼周接觸的位置,或是鏡腳接觸眼睛側面的位置等,如此的配置經由眼電訊號也可用於瞭解左右眼活動情形,故有各種用途。 In addition to understanding the left and right hemi-brain activity, when the electrode is placed close to the eye, for example, the position of the frame in contact with the eye, or the position of the temple contacting the side of the eye, etc., such configuration is also via the EO signal. It can be used to understand the left and right eye movements, so it has various uses.

而在一特別的實施例中,則是實施為,由右側鼻墊上的電極與右側鏡腳上的電極形成取樣迴路,以及左側鼻墊上的電極與左側鏡腳上的電極形成取樣迴路,這樣的方式特別有利於取得左右眼分別的動作,在此,只需注意將兩個迴路的電路隔開,例如,將鏡框中的金屬部件實施為左右不相接的兩個部分,以分別用於將一側的鼻墊連接同側的金屬絞鍊結構,而在此情形下,電路的分布可分別直接設置於左右部分的眼鏡結構中,或者,也可透過外接模組與鏡腳相結合的方式而設置,皆為可能的實施方式。 In a special embodiment, the sampling circuit is formed by the electrode on the right nose pad and the electrode on the right temple, and the electrode on the left nose pad and the electrode on the left temple form a sampling circuit. The method is particularly advantageous for obtaining the actions of the left and right eyes. Here, it is only necessary to separate the circuits of the two circuits. For example, the metal parts in the frame are implemented as two parts that are not connected to each other to be used separately. The nose pad on one side is connected to the metal hinge structure on the same side, and in this case, the distribution of the circuit can be directly disposed in the eyeglass structure of the left and right portions, or can be combined with the temple by the external module. The settings are all possible implementations.

再者,亦可應用於一般的生理回饋程序,例如,很大一部分的 生理回饋的目的是在放鬆身心,而皮膚電訊號就是生理回饋程序中最常見用來代表放鬆程度的生理訊號,另外,肌電訊號亦可表示肌肉的緊張程度,同樣是相關於放鬆的生理訊號。 Furthermore, it can also be applied to general physiological feedback programs. For example, a large part of the physiological feedback is to relax the body and mind, and the skin electrical signal is the physiological signal most commonly used in the physiological feedback program to represent the degree of relaxation. The myoelectric signal can also indicate the degree of muscle tension, which is also a physiological signal related to relaxation.

而且,透過本發明所具有的資訊提供單元,例如,設置於眼鏡結構上的鏡片、發光元件、顯示元件、顯示單元等,與眼鏡結構相連的耳機等,以及與眼鏡結構進行通訊的手機、平板電腦等,在上述的各種生理回饋程序中,使用者將可即時瞭解自身生理狀態的改變情形,例如,透過視覺、聽覺、及/或觸覺等方式提供,並藉以作為自我意識控制的依據。 Further, the information providing unit of the present invention, for example, a lens, a light-emitting element, a display element, a display unit, etc., which are disposed on the eyeglass structure, an earphone connected to the eyeglass structure, and the like, and a mobile phone or tablet that communicates with the eyeglass structure Computers, etc., in the various physiological feedback programs described above, the user will be able to instantly understand the changes in his or her physiological state, for example, through visual, auditory, and/or tactile sensations, and use it as a basis for self-consciousness control.

此外,在設有光感測器時,可取得使用者的血液生理訊號,例如,脈波訊號,血氧濃度等,其中,當可取得連續脈波訊號時,將可獲得心率變化,除了可讓使用者瞭解配戴期間的心率變化外,也可進一步用於取得RSA資訊(Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia,竇性心律不整),而透過RSA資訊,就可得知使用者的呼吸情形,據此,根據本發明的眼鏡結構將可應用於進行呼吸訓練,例如,可配合上資訊提供單元而提供使用者呼吸導引,及/或因呼吸訓練而發生變化的生理狀態等,此外,透過心率變異率(HRV,Heart rate variability)的資訊,還能瞭解自律神經系統的活動情形,其同樣是判斷人體是處於放鬆或緊張狀態的重要依據。 In addition, when a photo sensor is provided, a blood physiological signal of the user, for example, a pulse wave signal, a blood oxygen concentration, etc., can be obtained, wherein when a continuous pulse wave signal can be obtained, a heart rate change can be obtained, except To let users know the heart rate changes during wearing, they can be further used to obtain RSA information (Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia), and through RSA information, the user's breathing situation can be known, according to which The spectacles structure of the present invention can be applied to perform breathing training, for example, to provide a user's breathing guide in conjunction with the information providing unit, and/or a physiological state that changes due to breathing training, and in addition, through the heart rate variability ( HRV, Heart rate variability) can also understand the activity of the autonomic nervous system, which is also an important basis for judging whether the human body is in a state of relaxation or tension.

另外,由於加大RSA的振幅有助於觸發放鬆反應(Relaxation Response),解除累積的壓力,而達到提高副交感神經/交感神經活性比例的效果,因此,可透過觀察使用者的心率變化模式,並在心率開始加速時,透過導引告知使用者可以開始吸氣,以及在心率開始減緩時,透過導引告知使用者可以開始吐氣,以達到增大RSA振幅的效果,亦即造成呼吸與心 率間的相干性(coherence),也有助於達到放鬆。再者,由於RSA之波峰與波谷所取得之振幅的大小,亦即,在一呼吸週期中,心率之極大值與極小值間的差值,會相關於自律神經的活性高低,因此,同樣可將此資訊即時地提供予使用者,以作為使用者調節生理活動的基礎。 In addition, since increasing the amplitude of the RSA helps trigger the Relaxation Response and relieves the accumulated pressure, the effect of increasing the proportion of parasympathetic/sympathetic nerve activity is achieved, so that the user's heart rate change pattern can be observed, and When the heart rate starts to accelerate, the user is informed by the guide that the inhalation can be started, and when the heart rate begins to slow down, the user is informed through the guide that the exhalation can be started to increase the amplitude of the RSA, that is, between the breathing and the heart rate. The coherence also helps to achieve relaxation. Furthermore, due to the magnitude of the amplitude of the peaks and troughs of the RSA, that is, the difference between the maximum and minimum values of the heart rate during a breathing cycle, it is related to the activity of the autonomic nervous system. This information is provided to the user in real time as a basis for the user to adjust physiological activities.

而在一特殊的實施例中,如圖18所示,電路系統被設置於一腕戴結構中,例如,手錶、手環中,也就是,使用者可於平時將具有腦電訊號擷取功能的手錶/手環戴於手腕上,當有需要測量腦電訊號時,再連接上眼鏡結構,以完成與眼鏡結構上之電極的電連接,或者,平時即配戴腕戴結構以及眼鏡,當有測量需求時再將兩者連接,同樣是相當方便且融入日常生活的選擇,而這樣的情形則特別適合應用於生理回饋以及呼吸訓練。 In a special embodiment, as shown in FIG. 18, the circuit system is disposed in a wrist-worn structure, for example, in a wristwatch or a wristband, that is, the user can have an EEG signal capture function in peacetime. The wristwatch/brace is worn on the wrist. When it is necessary to measure the EEG signal, the eyeglass structure is connected to complete the electrical connection with the electrode on the lens structure, or the wrist wearing structure and the glasses are usually worn. Connecting the two when measuring demand is equally convenient and suitable for everyday life, and this situation is particularly suitable for physiological feedback and breathing training.

由於腕戴裝置所提供的可攜性以及在其上設置資訊提供單元的便利性,再加上只需配合眼鏡結構即可取得腦電訊號的設計,使得使用者幾乎可以無時間、地點限制地進行生理回饋/呼吸訓練,此時,若可進一步在腕戴結構上亦設置電極,與眼鏡結構上的電極一起取得心電訊號,或是在眼鏡結構或腕戴結構上設置光感測器,取得心率,都可藉此而瞭解呼吸情形,進而執行呼吸訓練程序,並且,若同時具有心電電極以及光感測器,就可得出脈波傳遞時間(PTT),再利用PTT與血壓之間的關係而計算出參考的血壓值,或進一步利用PPT作為生理回饋資訊。因此,只需配戴腕戴結構以及眼鏡結構,就可獲得多樣的生理資訊,而且操作方便,是相當具有優勢的實施方式。 Due to the portability provided by the wrist-worn device and the convenience of setting up the information providing unit thereon, the design of the EEG signal can be obtained only by matching the lens structure, so that the user can almost no time or place. Perform physiological feedback/breathing training. At this time, if the electrode can be further disposed on the wrist-worn structure, the electrocardiogram is obtained together with the electrode on the eyeglass structure, or the light sensor is disposed on the eyeglass structure or the wrist-worn structure. By taking the heart rate, you can understand the breathing situation, and then perform the breathing training program. If you have both the ECG electrode and the light sensor, you can get the pulse transit time (PTT), and then use PTT and blood pressure. The reference blood pressure value is calculated or the PPT is further utilized as the physiological feedback information. Therefore, it is a relatively advantageous embodiment to obtain a variety of physiological information by simply wearing a wrist-worn structure and a spectacles structure, and it is easy to operate.

而且,由於腕戴結構的設置位置正是一般設置資訊提供介面的位置,例如,手錶,手環,因此,在進行生理回饋或呼吸訓練期間,可以 很自然的透過腕戴結構而提供生理回饋的資訊,及/或呼吸導引等,或是作為使用者的輸入介面,相當方便,此外,進一步地,若使用者選擇閉眼進行生理回饋或呼吸訓練,還可透過再連接上一發聲元件,例如,連接至腕戴結構,或是延伸自眼鏡結構,或是設置於該眼鏡結構上,以產生音頻,例如,可以是已儲存的數個音頻檔,或是即時產生音頻,例如,具特定頻率的音頻,且該音頻可以是聲音及/或語音,進而透過聽覺的方式給予使用者回饋及/或引導;或是透過腕戴結構及/或眼鏡結構發出振動的方式而給予使用者回饋及/或引導,都為相當具有優勢的方式。 Moreover, since the position of the wrist-worn structure is the position where the information providing interface is generally set, for example, a watch, a wristband, it is natural to provide physiological feedback through the wrist-worn structure during physiological feedback or breathing training. Information, and/or breathing guidance, etc., or as a user's input interface, is quite convenient. Further, if the user chooses to close the eyes for physiological feedback or breathing training, the user can also connect the previous sounding component, for example , connected to the wrist-worn structure, or extended from the eyeglass structure, or disposed on the eyeglass structure to generate audio, for example, may be stored in several audio files, or generate audio instantaneously, for example, with a specific frequency Audio, and the audio may be sound and/or voice, and then give feedback and/or guidance to the user in an audible manner; or give feedback to the user by means of vibration of the wrist-worn structure and/or the spectacles structure and/or Or guidance, both are quite advantageous ways.

在此,該發聲元件可實施為設置於一耳戴結構上,例如,實施為一耳機,以配戴於耳朵,讓使用更方便,而且,更進一步地,還可於該耳戴結構上設置電極,例如,設置於耳內殼體的表面,以取得腦電訊號,例如,如前所述地,與眼鏡結構上的電極一起取得腦電訊號,例如,作為參考電極,或是設置二個電極而單獨取得腦電訊號,都是可行的方式,或者,耳戴結構上也可設置可供上肢接觸的電極,如此一來,就可與眼鏡結構上的電極一起取得心電訊號,或是利用耳戴結構上的電極與腕戴結構上的電極一起取得心電訊號;再者,也可於該耳戴結構上設置光感測器,以取得心率,而正如前述,心率變化所能獲得的生理資訊,例如,HRV,RSA,呼吸行為等,同樣可應用於進行生理回饋及/或呼吸訓練,另外,當利用兩個穿戴結構來取得心電訊號時,例如,腕戴結構上的電極配合眼鏡結構/耳戴結構上的電極時,亦可利用心電訊號來執行生理回饋及/或呼吸訓練。 Here, the sound emitting element can be implemented to be disposed on an ear wearing structure, for example, implemented as an earphone to be worn on the ear, which is more convenient to use, and, further, can also be set on the ear wearing structure An electrode, for example, is disposed on a surface of the inner ear housing to obtain an electroencephalogram signal, for example, as described above, with an electrode on the eyeglass structure to obtain an electroencephalogram signal, for example, as a reference electrode, or two It is possible to obtain the EEG signal separately from the electrode, or the electrode for the upper limb can be placed on the ear wearing structure, so that the electrocardiogram can be obtained together with the electrode on the lens structure, or The electrocardiographic signal is obtained by using the electrode on the ear-wearing structure together with the electrode on the wrist-worn structure; further, a light sensor can be disposed on the ear-wearing structure to obtain the heart rate, and as described above, the heart rate can be obtained. Physiological information, such as HRV, RSA, respiratory behavior, etc., can also be applied to physiological feedback and/or breathing training, in addition, when using two wearable structures to obtain ECG signals, for example, wrist Electrocardiographic signals can also be used to perform physiological feedback and/or breathing training when the electrodes on the structure are used in conjunction with the glasses structure/electrodes on the ear-worn structure.

再進一步地,腕戴結構除了上述功能外,亦可提供其他的生理訊號檢測選擇,例如,可在與手腕接觸的表面上設有電極的同時,亦於另 一上肢可接觸的表面上設置電極,以利用兩手分別接觸電極而取得心電訊號;或者,可在手腕接觸的表面設置兩個電極,以取得皮膚電訊號及/或肌電訊號;或者,再延伸一指戴結構,而該指戴結構則可實施為在與手指接觸的表面具有二個電極,以取得皮膚電訊號及/或肌電訊號,或是僅具有一個電極,並配合上可供另一上肢接觸的另一個電極,例如,設置於腕戴結構、眼鏡結構、或指戴結構上,以取得心電訊號,其中,該指戴結構亦可用來設置光感測器,以取得心率、血氧濃度等血液生理資訊,同樣是相當具有優勢的方式。另外,皮膚電訊號的取得亦可透過腕戴結構上的電極與另一穿戴結構上的電極來達成,例如,指戴結構、眼鏡結構、或耳戴結構。 Further, in addition to the above functions, the wrist-worn structure can provide other physiological signal detection options, for example, electrodes can be provided on the surface in contact with the wrist, and electrodes can be placed on the surface of the other upper limb. To obtain an electrocardiogram signal by using two hands to contact the electrodes separately; or, to provide two electrodes on the surface of the wrist contact to obtain a skin electrical signal and/or a myoelectric signal; or, to extend a finger wearing structure, and the finger The wearing structure can be implemented as having two electrodes on the surface in contact with the finger to obtain the skin electrical signal and/or the myoelectric signal, or having only one electrode and matching the other electrode for the other upper limb to contact. For example, it is disposed on the wrist wearing structure, the eyeglass structure, or the finger wearing structure to obtain an electrocardiogram signal, wherein the finger wearing structure can also be used to set a light sensor to obtain blood physiological information such as heart rate and blood oxygen concentration. The same is a fairly advantageous way. In addition, the acquisition of the skin electrical signal can also be achieved by electrodes on the wrist-worn structure and electrodes on the other wearing structure, for example, a wearing structure, a spectacles structure, or an ear-wearing structure.

而除了應用於生理回饋以及呼吸導引外,亦可用來偵測人體的精神狀態。 In addition to being applied to physiological feedback and respiratory guidance, it can also be used to detect the mental state of the human body.

人的精神狀態可透過許多的生理訊號而得知,例如,腦電訊號,眼電訊號,自律神經系統的活動狀態等,其中,不同腦波頻率代表著人體的不同精神狀態,例如,當人體處於清醒且專注的狀態時,可測得佔優勢的β波(約12-28Hz),另一方面,當人體處於放鬆的狀態時,則可測得佔優勢的α波(約8-12Hz),而當即將進入了睡眠狀態時,則可觀察到頻率更低的腦波。 The mental state of a person can be known through many physiological signals, such as the brain electrical signal, the EO signal, the active state of the autonomic nervous system, etc., wherein different brainwave frequencies represent different mental states of the human body, for example, when the human body When in a conscious and focused state, the dominant β wave (about 12-28 Hz) can be measured. On the other hand, when the human body is in a relaxed state, the dominant alpha wave (about 8-12 Hz) can be measured. When the sleep state is about to enter, a lower frequency brain wave can be observed.

再者,自律神經系統中,當交感神經活性增加時,會使人體趨向緊張的狀態,而當副交感神經活性增加時,則會趨使人體進入放鬆的狀態,且在這期間,人體的各種生理現象也會有相對應的變化,例如,當副交感神經活性增加時,心率即會隨之下降,因此,透過觀察反應自律神經系統變化的生理訊號也可瞭解人的精神狀態。 Furthermore, in the autonomic nervous system, when the sympathetic nerve activity increases, the human body tends to be in a state of tension, and when the parasympathetic nerve activity increases, the human body enters a state of relaxation, and during this period, various physiological processes of the human body. There will also be corresponding changes in the phenomenon. For example, when the parasympathetic activity increases, the heart rate will decrease. Therefore, the mental state of the person can be understood by observing the physiological signals reflecting the changes in the autonomic nervous system.

另外,亦已有大量的實驗證實,眨眼模式與人的疲勞程度、注意力缺乏、以及壓力等有一定的相關性,而這些亦反應了人的精神狀態,因此,透過偵測眼電訊號而得知眨眼模式,例如,單位時間的眨眼次數是否出現改變,以及眨眼速度是否變慢等,亦有助於瞭解人的精神狀態,例如,是否出現了睡意,而這些都可透過取得眼電訊號而得知。 In addition, a large number of experiments have confirmed that the blink mode has a certain correlation with the degree of fatigue, lack of attention, and stress, and these also reflect the mental state of the person. Therefore, by detecting the EO signal. Knowing the blink mode, for example, whether the number of blinks per unit time changes, and whether the blink speed is slow, etc., also helps to understand the mental state of the person, for example, whether there is drowsiness, and these can be obtained through the EOG. And learned.

如前所述地,這些訊號都可透過本發明的眼鏡結構而取得,而既然是希望於日常生活、學習、工作期間用以偵測人的清醒狀態、睡意程度、或疲勞程度,則眼鏡結構具有不顯突兀、使用者的接受度大的優勢,將是最為適合的選擇。 As mentioned above, these signals can be obtained by the spectacles structure of the present invention, and since it is intended to detect the awake state, the degree of drowsiness, or the degree of fatigue during daily life, study, and work, the spectacles structure The advantage of being unobtrusive and user-accepted will be the most suitable choice.

進一步地,若可透過同時參考多種生理資訊的方式,將可有效地提升檢測結果的準確度,舉例而言,在取得腦電訊號的同時也參考眼電訊號,以得知使用者的眼睛活動情形,或是同時分析腦波以及自律神經活動的狀態,以透過多重的指標而增加判斷的準確度。 Further, if the physiological information is simultaneously referred to, the accuracy of the detection result can be effectively improved. For example, when the EEG signal is obtained, the EEG signal is also referred to to know the eye activity of the user. The situation, or the simultaneous analysis of brain waves and the state of autonomic nervous activity, to increase the accuracy of judgment through multiple indicators.

所以,在一較佳實施例中,本發明實施為透過同時偵測腦電訊號以及眼動訊號而判斷人的精神狀態,選擇這樣的組合是基於,在透過腦波的頻率而瞭解使用者處於精神集中或是放鬆狀態的情形下,若是可以配合上眼電訊號來確認使用者的眼睛活動狀態,將有助於判斷使用者並非處於休息狀態,再加上,眼電訊號還可提供使用者眨眼模式的資訊,例如,如前所述地,眨眼次數及/或眨眼速度是否出現變化,如此一來,就可更為精準地判斷使用者的精神狀態。 Therefore, in a preferred embodiment, the present invention is implemented to determine a person's mental state by simultaneously detecting an electroencephalogram signal and an eye movement signal. The combination is selected based on knowing the user's presence at the frequency of the brain wave. In the case of mental concentration or relaxation, if the eye movement status can be confirmed with the upper eye signal, it will help to determine that the user is not at rest. In addition, the eye-electric signal can also provide the user. The information of the blink mode, for example, as described above, whether the number of blinks and/or the blink speed changes, so that the user's mental state can be judged more accurately.

而如前所述,可藉由於鏡框單元上設置電極,例如,鼻梁、山根、兩眼間區域、眼眶四周等位置設置電極,再配合上鏡腳上的電極就同 時取得腦電訊號以及眼電訊號,且由兩種訊號的訊號強度以及訊號特徵有一定程度的差異,因此,透過訊號處理的方式就可將兩者分開,據此,在最少僅需二個電極的情形下就可同時取得用以判斷精神狀態的兩種生理訊號,不但大幅降低了設置生理感測元件的複雜度,也同時最大化了使用效益,是相當具優勢的方式,而且,透過這樣的設計,使用者只需輕鬆戴上眼鏡就可達到監測自身精神狀態的目的,相當方便。 As mentioned above, by providing electrodes on the frame unit, for example, the nose bridge, the root of the mountain, the area between the eyes, the circumference of the eyelids, and the like, and the electrodes on the upper arm are used to obtain the EEG signal and the eye telegram. No., and the signal strength and signal characteristics of the two signals are different to some extent. Therefore, the signal processing can be used to separate the two. According to this, at least two electrodes can be obtained at the same time. The two physiological signals used to judge the mental state not only greatly reduce the complexity of setting the physiological sensing component, but also maximize the use efficiency, which is a very advantageous way. Moreover, through such a design, the user only needs It is quite convenient to easily wear glasses to achieve the purpose of monitoring your mental state.

而在一另一較佳實施例中,本發明則實施為同時利用眼電訊號以及心率資訊作為判斷精神狀態的基礎。而會採用此兩種生理資訊的原因在於,除了眼電訊號可分析得知眨眼模式外,透過分析心率資訊,亦可獲得許多可代表精神狀態的生理資訊,舉例而言,如前所述,分析心率資訊可得出自律神經活動資訊以及呼吸情形等,其中,自律神經活動情形可判斷精神狀態處於緊張或放鬆,另外,當精神狀態處於放鬆、疲勞、嗜睡時,呼吸頻率亦會變低,故亦可以此作為判斷的基礎,此外,心率在自律神經系統的控制下,也會於放鬆、疲勞、嗜睡期間出現心率下降的現象。故透過結合腦波頻率以及心率資訊,亦可有助於更精準判斷使用者的精神狀態。 In a further preferred embodiment, the present invention is implemented to simultaneously utilize an ocular electrical signal and heart rate information as a basis for determining a mental state. The reason for using these two kinds of physiological information is that in addition to the eye-eye signal analysis, the heart rate information can be analyzed, and many physiological information representing the mental state can be obtained, for example, as described above. Analysis of heart rate information can be obtained from autonomic nervous activity information and respiratory conditions. Among them, autonomic nervous activity can judge that the mental state is nervous or relaxed. In addition, when the mental state is relaxed, tired, and lethargic, the respiratory rate will also become lower. Therefore, it can be used as a basis for judgment. In addition, under the control of the autonomic nervous system, the heart rate will also decrease in heart rate during relaxation, fatigue, and sleepiness. Therefore, by combining brain wave frequency and heart rate information, it can also help to more accurately determine the user's mental state.

另一方面,由於精神狀態偵測通常的應用是在一般日常生活的工作期間,例如,開車期間,因此,提醒機制同樣相當重要。而具優勢地是,基於眼鏡結構的結構特性,當判斷出使用者的精神狀態不佳,例如,符合一預設值時,可自然地藉由設置於眼鏡結構上的資訊提供介面而發出提醒訊息,進而讓使用者改善其精神狀態,舉例而言,如前所述,可透過於眼鏡附近設置發光元件,可利用設置顯示元件、顯示單元等方式達到視覺提醒的效果,例如,發出閃光、產生顏色變化、出現提醒訊息等;或者, 也可在鏡腳接近耳朵的位置附近設置發聲元件(空氣傳導或骨傳導形式),或實施為由鏡腳延伸出耳機(空氣傳導或骨傳導形式),以透過聲音、語音進行提醒;或者,也可透過在眼鏡結構與皮膚接觸的位置處設置振動模組而產生振動,另外,也可實施為將振動模組設置於耳機內,沒有限制。 On the other hand, since the usual application of mental state detection is during normal daily work, for example, during driving, the reminder mechanism is also quite important. Advantageously, based on the structural characteristics of the spectacles structure, when it is determined that the user's mental state is not good, for example, when a predetermined value is met, the reminder can be naturally issued by the information providing interface provided on the spectacles structure. The message, in turn, allows the user to improve their mental state. For example, as described above, the light-emitting element can be disposed near the glasses, and the visual reminder effect can be achieved by setting the display element, the display unit, etc., for example, emitting a flash, Produce a color change, a reminder message, etc.; alternatively, a sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction form) may be placed near the position where the temple is close to the ear, or may be implemented as a lens extending from the temple (air conduction or bone conduction) The sound module or the voice is used for reminding; or the vibration module may be provided at a position where the eyeglass structure is in contact with the skin to generate vibration. Alternatively, the vibration module may be disposed in the earphone without limitation.

當然,亦可實施為,將判斷得出的精神狀態透過資訊提供介面而即時地提供給使用者,例如,可將精神狀態數據化,而透過數字進行顯示,或者可利用顏色變化、振動大小、聲音大小等來表現當下的精神狀態,皆無限制。 Of course, it can also be implemented to provide the judged mental state to the user through the information providing interface, for example, the mental state can be digitized, displayed by numbers, or the color change, the vibration size, The size of the sound, etc., to express the current state of mind, there is no limit.

此外,所取得的生理訊號除了藉由設置於穿戴結構中的處理器模組執行計算/分析進而得出提醒訊息外,亦可實施為將所取得的生理訊號傳送至該外部裝置,並由該外部裝置根據所接收的生理訊號而進行精神狀態分析,此時,有關精神狀態的資訊及有需要對使用者發出提醒時的提醒訊息,將可直接透過該外部裝置的資訊提供介面而提供給使用者,或再回傳至該穿戴裝置上,透過其上的資訊提供單元而提供。在另一較佳實施例中,則實施為穿戴於身上的裝置將產生的精神狀態資訊及/或提醒訊息傳送至外部裝置,並由該外部裝置的資訊提供介面將相關精神狀態的資訊及/或提醒訊息提供給使用者。在此需注意地是,該外部裝置同樣可透過產生觸覺、聽覺、或視覺訊號等形式而將資訊及/或訊息提供給使用者,沒有限制。 In addition, the obtained physiological signal may be implemented by transmitting a physiological signal to the external device, in addition to performing a calculation/analysis by a processor module disposed in the wearable structure to obtain a reminder message. The external device performs a mental state analysis based on the received physiological signal. At this time, the information about the mental state and the reminder message when the user needs to be reminded can be directly provided to the information through the information providing interface of the external device. Or return it to the wearable device and provide it through the information providing unit on it. In another preferred embodiment, the device that is worn on the body transmits the generated mental state information and/or the reminder message to the external device, and the information providing interface of the external device transmits the relevant mental state information and/or Or a reminder message is provided to the user. It should be noted that the external device can also provide information and/or information to the user by generating tactile, audible, or visual signals, without limitation.

此外,由於清醒狀態的偵測多在於日常生活期間,例如,長時間開車,若可再配合上標記檢測的起始時間點,例如,當進入開車期間,啟動精神狀態的偵測,將可更精準地提供判斷結果。 In addition, since the detection of the awake state mostly lies in daily life, for example, driving for a long time, if the start time point of the mark detection can be matched, for example, when the driving state is started, the detection of the mental state can be started. Accurately provide judgment results.

再者,也可應用於對人體進行刺激,以達到改變生理狀態、腦 部狀態、意識狀態等效果,舉例而言,較常見的功用是,用來達到放鬆,提高專注度,例如,治療ADHD(Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,注意力缺陷過動症),改善記憶力,改變精神狀態,例如,治療PTSD(Post traumatic Stress Disorder,創傷後壓力症候群),提升心理能力及表現(Mental Capability and Performance),改變大腦狀態,例如,治療失智症(Dementia),改變認知狀態(cognitive state),改變/誘發睡眠狀態等各種功效。 Furthermore, it can also be applied to stimulate the human body to achieve effects such as changing physiological state, brain state, and state of consciousness. For example, a more common function is to achieve relaxation and improve concentration, for example, treating ADHD. (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), improve memory, change mental state, for example, treat PTSD (Post traumatic Stress Disorder), improve mental capacity and performance (Mental Capability and Performance), change Brain states, for example, treating dementia, changing cognitive states, changing/inducing sleep states, and the like.

而針對此項應用,眼鏡結構所具有的優勢是,其原有的結構環繞於頭部的周圍,且涵蓋眼睛,因此,無論是視覺、聽覺、及/或觸覺形式的刺激都可實施,例如,可在單邊、或兩邊鏡框或鏡腳接近眼睛的位置設置顯示元件,例如,顯示元件,發光元件等,以產生閃光、顏色變化等,以進行視覺刺激;或是在鏡腳接近耳朵的位置附近設置發聲元件(空氣傳導式或骨傳導式),或實施為連接出一耳機(空氣傳導式或骨傳導式),以產生聽覺刺激;或者,可在鏡框、鏡腳上設置振盪器,以產生振動刺激;或者,更進一步地,可透過設置電極而產生電刺激。同樣地,當實施為耳戴結構時,其同樣能夠產生這些刺激,例如,可由耳戴結構延伸出顯示元件,在耳戴結構內設置發聲元件,及/或於耳戴結構內設置振動模組等,以及透過設置於耳戴結構的電極而進行電刺激。 For this application, the spectacles structure has the advantage that its original structure surrounds the head and covers the eye, so that stimuli in either visual, auditory, and/or tactile forms can be implemented, for example Display elements such as display elements, light-emitting elements, etc., may be provided on one side, or on both sides of the frame or the temples close to the eyes, for example, to generate flashes, color changes, etc. for visual stimulation; or to approach the ears of the temples A sounding element (air conduction or bone conduction type) is arranged near the position, or an earphone (air conduction or bone conduction type) is connected to generate an auditory stimulation; or an oscillator can be arranged on the frame or the temple. To generate a vibration stimulus; or, further, electrical stimulation can be generated by providing an electrode. Similarly, when implemented as an ear-worn structure, it can also generate these stimuli, for example, the display element can be extended by the ear-worn structure, the sound-emitting element can be placed within the ear-worn structure, and/or the vibration module can be placed within the ear-worn structure. Etc., and electrical stimulation is performed through electrodes disposed on the ear-worn structure.

首先,基於本發明的眼鏡結構、耳戴結構上原本即設置有電極,因此,具優勢地是應用於進行電刺激。 First, the eyeglass structure and the ear-wearing structure based on the present invention are originally provided with electrodes, and therefore, are advantageously applied to perform electrical stimulation.

舉例而言,常見的電刺激包括,例如,tCS(transcranial Current Stimulation,經顱電刺激),TENS(Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation,經皮神經電刺激),MET(Microcurrent Electrical Therapy,微 電流電療法),以及其他已知的電刺激等,其中,常見形式的tCS包括tDCS(transcranial Direct Current Stimulation,經顱直流電刺激),tACS(transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation,經顱交流電刺激),以及tRNS(transcranial Random Noise Stimulation,經顱隨機噪聲刺激),而特別地是,由於經顱電刺激(施加電流範圍通常低於2毫安培)是施加於大腦皮質上方的局部生理組織,進而影響對應之大腦皮質的活動,且所施加的電流非常的微弱,因此,在執行電刺激的期間,受試者通常不會有明顯的感覺,其中,不同大腦皮質區(如圖5A所示)分別對應地掌管人體不同的功能,例如,視覺主要由枕葉區掌管,聽覺主要由顳葉區掌管,體感主要由頂葉掌管,以及高級認知功能,如語言、自我意識等,則主要由額葉區掌管,因此,透過將電極設置於對應於不同大腦皮質區域的頭骨上,除了可取得相對皮質區的活動情形外,也可針對透過進行電刺激的方式而對該區域的大腦皮質產生影響。 For example, common electrical stimuli include, for example, tCS (transcranial current Stimulation), TENS (Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation), MET (Microcurrent Electrical Therapy), And other known electrical stimuli, etc., wherein the common forms of tCS include tDCS (transcranial Direct Current Stimulation), tACS (transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation), and tRNS (transcranial Random Noise Stimulation, Transcranial random noise stimulation), and in particular, because transcranial electrical stimulation (current application range is usually less than 2 milliamperes) is applied to the local physiological tissue above the cerebral cortex, thereby affecting the activity of the corresponding cerebral cortex, and The applied current is very weak, so the subject usually does not have a distinct sensation during the performance of the electrical stimulation, wherein different cerebral cortical regions (as shown in Figure 5A) respectively correspond to different functions of the human body, such as Vision is mainly controlled by the occipital lobe area, and the hearing is mainly caused by the temporal lobe area. In charge, the body is mainly controlled by the parietal lobe, and advanced cognitive functions, such as language and self-awareness, are mainly controlled by the frontal lobe. Therefore, by placing the electrodes on the skull corresponding to different cerebral cortical areas, in addition to In addition to the activity of the cortical area, it is also possible to influence the cerebral cortex of the area by means of electrical stimulation.

尚有一種電刺激種類,舌頭電刺激(Electrode stimulation of tongue)。根據研究顯示,對舌頭進行電刺激能夠活化兩個主要的腦神經:舌神經(三叉神經的一部分)和鼓索神經(chorda tympani)(顏面神經的一部分),而對於腦神經的刺激則是能夠產生傳達至頂葉皮質體感區以及直達腦幹的神經衝動流(flow of neural impulses),其中,腦幹是許多生命功能的控制中心,包括,感官知覺以及運動,然後,從腦幹起始,這些神經衝動將穿過腦部並活化、或再次活化神經元以及與腦功能有關的結構--大腦皮質,脊髓,以及,潛在地,整個中樞神經系統。 There is also a type of electrical stimulation, Electrode stimulation of tongue. According to research, electrical stimulation of the tongue activates two major cranial nerves: the lingual nerve (part of the trigeminal nerve) and the chorda tympani (part of the facial nerve), while the stimulation of the cranial nerve is able to Produces flow of neural impulses that are transmitted to the parietal cortical somatosensory region and directly to the brainstem, where the brain stem is the control center for many vital functions, including sensory perception and movement, and then, starting from the brainstem These nerve impulses will pass through the brain and activate, or reactivate, neurons and structures associated with brain function - the cerebral cortex, the spinal cord, and, potentially, the entire central nervous system.

已知,對於人體施以電刺激,除了能達到前述的各種功效外, 亦已知有助於改善某些病徵,例如,肩頸疼痛等局部疼痛、偏頭痛、憂鬱症、癲癇、中風等,其中,用來進行刺激的位置,例如,三叉神經、迷走神經、交感神經、大腦皮質等,皆位於頭部以及耳朵附近,恰好鄰近眼鏡結構以及耳戴結構的位置,例如,耳垂、耳廓、耳道、耳後、太陽穴附近、前額、頭頂、腦後等,舉例而言,三叉神經的許多分支,例如,耳顳神經(auriculotemporal nerve)位於耳朵附近及上方,另外,眶上神經(supraorbital nerve),滑車上動脈神經(supratrochlear artery nerve),以及眼神經(ophthalmic nerve)等則位於眼眶與額頭附近,而這些就剛好是眼鏡結構/耳戴結構設置於頭部/耳朵時會接觸的位置,因此,相當適合利用眼鏡結構以及耳戴結構來實施;再者,亦可透過對針灸穴位進行電刺激的方式而達到改善生理狀態的效果。 It is known that the application of electrical stimulation to the human body, in addition to achieving the aforementioned various effects, is also known to contribute to the improvement of certain symptoms, such as local pain such as shoulder and neck pain, migraine, depression, epilepsy, stroke, and the like. Among them, the position used for stimulation, for example, the trigeminal nerve, the vagus nerve, the sympathetic nerve, the cerebral cortex, etc., are located near the head and the ear, just adjacent to the spectacles structure and the position of the ear-wearing structure, for example, the earlobe, the auricle, the ear Road, behind the ear, near the temple, forehead, head, back of the brain, etc., for example, many branches of the trigeminal nerve, for example, the auriculotemporal nerve is located near and above the ear, in addition, supraorbital nerve ), the supratrochlear artery nerve, and the ophthalmic nerve are located near the eyelids and the forehead, and these are just the positions where the eyeglass structure/ear-worn structure is placed in contact with the head/ear. Therefore, it is quite suitable to be implemented by using the eyeglass structure and the ear wearing structure; in addition, it is also possible to electrically stimulate the acupuncture points. In a way, the effect of improving the physiological state is achieved.

舉例而言,可以實施為眼鏡形式,直接透過設置於眼鏡結構的二個電極,例如,接觸頭部兩側的電極,或是接觸兩眼間區域及頭部一側的電極,就可對腦部進行電刺激;另外,當同時具有耳戴結構時,可透過如上所述之設置於耳戴結構上的電極,而與眼鏡上的電極一起對腦部進行電刺激。而由於只要直接配戴上穿戴結構完成電極的接觸,即可進行電刺激,故無論採用何種形式,皆可讓電刺激的執行變得更為簡易,相當方便。 For example, it can be implemented in the form of glasses, which can directly pass through two electrodes disposed on the structure of the glasses, for example, electrodes contacting both sides of the head, or electrodes contacting the area between the eyes and the side of the head. The portion is electrically stimulated; in addition, when the ear-wearing structure is simultaneously provided, the brain can be electrically stimulated together with the electrodes on the lens through the electrode disposed on the ear-wearing structure as described above. Since the electrical stimulation can be performed by directly wearing the wearing structure to complete the contact of the electrodes, the execution of the electrical stimulation can be made simpler and more convenient regardless of the form.

而除了直接利用穿戴結構上的電極進行電刺激外,亦可有其他實施方式,舉例而言,可透過穿戴結構作為媒介,而延伸出電極,以進行電刺激,例如,可以是僅延伸出一個電極,並與穿戴結構上的其中一個電極一起執行電刺激,也可以是延伸出二個電極,而透過二個延伸電極執行電刺激,皆為可行的方式,而當利用延伸電極的形式時,具優勢地是,可 選擇接觸的位置則變得更為廣泛,不受限於穿戴結構的設置位置,例如,如圖19A-19B所示,可由眼鏡的鏡腳延伸出電極而接觸頸後、耳後、額頭等,也可由耳戴結構延伸出電極接觸額頭、太陽穴、頸後、耳朵後方等,因此,可以有各種可能,而在此需注意地是,雖然圖中所示為延伸出二個電極,但亦可實施為僅延伸出一個電極,沒有限制。 In addition to directly using the electrodes on the wearing structure for electrical stimulation, other embodiments may be used. For example, the wearable structure may be used as a medium to extend the electrodes for electrical stimulation. For example, only one extension may be extended. Electrode, and performing electrical stimulation together with one of the electrodes on the wearing structure, or extending two electrodes, and performing electrical stimulation through the two extended electrodes, is a feasible way, and when using the form of the extended electrode, Advantageously, the position of the selectable contact becomes more extensive and is not limited to the position in which the wear structure is placed. For example, as shown in Figures 19A-19B, the electrode can be extended from the temple of the eyeglass to contact the neck, Behind the ear, forehead, etc., can also be extended by the ear-wearing structure to contact the forehead, the temple, the back of the neck, the back of the ear, etc. Therefore, there are various possibilities, and it should be noted here that although the figure shows the extension Electrodes, but can also be implemented to extend only one electrode, without limitation.

當延伸出電極時,則可利用依附元件而將電極設置於皮膚上,例如,如圖中所示的貼片,或者,該依附元件也可以是另一個穿戴結構,例如,採用由眼鏡結構延伸出耳戴結構、頸戴結構、臂戴結構、腕戴結構、指戴結構等的形式。 When the electrode is extended, the electrode can be placed on the skin by means of an attachment element, for example, a patch as shown in the figure, or the attachment element can be another wearable structure, for example, extended by the structure of the eyeglass. The ear wear structure, the neck wear structure, the arm wear structure, the wrist wear structure, the finger wear structure, and the like.

或者,也可由耳戴結構延伸出另一個穿戴結構,例如,另一個耳戴結構、頭戴結構、頸戴結構、臂戴結構、腕戴結構、指戴結構等形式,皆為可行的方式,其中,頭戴結構根據設置位置的不同,可讓電極被設置於對應大腦皮質的額葉區、頂葉區(如圖20A-20B所示)、枕葉區等位置,頸戴結構則可讓電極被設置於頸部、肩膀附近的位置,因此,可依實際使用需求而改變,沒有限制。 Alternatively, it is also possible for the ear-wearing structure to extend out of another wearing structure, for example, another ear-wearing structure, a head-wearing structure, a neck-wearing structure, an arm-worn structure, a wrist-worn structure, a finger-wearing structure, and the like, all of which are feasible. Wherein, the head-wearing structure allows the electrodes to be placed in the frontal and parietal regions corresponding to the cerebral cortex (as shown in FIGS. 20A-20B) and the occipital region according to the position of the setting, and the neck-wearing structure allows The electrode is placed at a position near the neck and the shoulder, and therefore, it can be changed according to actual use requirements, and there is no limitation.

再者,特別地是,當進行舌頭電刺激時,該依附元件則可實施為一口內結構,以讓使用者能夠將複數個電極設置於舌頭上,而當進行舌頭電刺激時,設置於該口內結構上的電極配置,較佳地是,實施為排列成矩陣形式,例如,9 x 9或是12 x 12的電極配置,且在提供電刺激時,可實施為根據程式控制而有不同的電刺激方式變化,例如,經由電極配置而產生之具有時間或空間變化的電刺激模式(pattern),因此,可依實際使用需求而改變,沒有限制。 Furthermore, in particular, when the tongue is electrically stimulated, the attachment element can be implemented as an internal structure to allow the user to set a plurality of electrodes on the tongue, and when the tongue is electrically stimulated, The electrode arrangement on the intraoral structure is preferably implemented in a matrix form, for example, a 9 x 9 or 12 x 12 electrode configuration, and may be implemented to vary depending on program control when providing electrical stimulation. The electrical stimulation mode changes, for example, an electrical stimulation pattern having a temporal or spatial variation generated through the electrode configuration, and thus can be changed according to actual use requirements without limitation.

另外,替代地,當實施為二個延伸電極時,可實施為由二個延伸元件分別承載,也可實施為由一個延伸元件同時承載二個電極,無限制。 In addition, when implemented as two extension electrodes, it may be implemented to be respectively carried by two extension elements, or may be implemented as one extension element simultaneously carrying two electrodes, without limitation.

在此,需注意的是,所採用的電極,無論是設置於穿戴結構上的電極、或是延伸而出的電極,皆可實施為乾式電極、或濕式電極,例如,使用導電膏的電極,沒有限制,其中,尤其具有優勢的是,採用自黏濕式電極,例如,貼片式電極,可在穿戴結構以外進一步提高電極與皮膚的接觸穩定性,至於實施的形式則有許多選擇,例如,可藉由延伸形式而使用濕式電極,也可將原有穿戴結構的電極替換為濕式電極,皆為可行的方式。 Here, it should be noted that the electrode used, whether it is an electrode disposed on the wearing structure or an extended electrode, may be implemented as a dry electrode or a wet electrode, for example, an electrode using a conductive paste. There is no limitation, and among them, it is particularly advantageous to use a self-adhesive wet electrode, for example, a patch electrode, to further improve the contact stability between the electrode and the skin in addition to the wearing structure, and there are many options for the form to be implemented. For example, it is possible to use a wet electrode by extending the form, or to replace the electrode of the original wear structure with a wet electrode.

而當採用乾式電極的形式時,尤其具有優勢地則是,可採用如前所述的接觸確保結構,例如,實施為分散的電接觸點、及/或實施為可伸縮的結構等,特別地是,頭部附近的接觸點很可能會受到毛髮的阻擋,藉由採用接觸確保結構,將可確保電刺激的執行。因此,可根據使用目的而選擇適合的電極種類,沒有限制。 In the case of a dry electrode, it is particularly advantageous to use a contact securing structure as described above, for example as a discrete electrical contact, and/or as a telescopic structure, in particular Yes, the contact points near the head are likely to be blocked by the hair, and by using the contact to ensure the structure, the execution of the electrical stimulation will be ensured. Therefore, a suitable electrode type can be selected depending on the purpose of use, and there is no limitation.

在實施時,主要是由一訊號產生單元產生一電訊號,並傳送至與其相連接的電極,以藉此使電極對使用者施加電刺激,因此,透過改變該電訊號,電極所施加於使用者的電刺激即可被改變。在此,需注意地是,所產生的電刺激是非侵入的形式,而所施加之電刺激的內容,則可以根據電刺激的目的而改變,例如,可選擇採用基於正弦波、方波或其他波形的電流、電壓變化,或者,在採用脈波的情形下,即使頻率相同,亦可透過脈波寬度調變(Pulse Width Modulation)而改變刺激的持續期間;或者,在希望利用直流電進行刺激的情形下,可將直流電作為偏壓(offset),在於其上加載所選擇的波形,亦為可行的方式,因此沒有限制。 In implementation, a signal is generated by a signal generating unit and transmitted to an electrode connected thereto, thereby causing the electrode to apply electrical stimulation to the user. Therefore, by changing the electrical signal, the electrode is applied to the use. The electrical stimulation of the person can be changed. Here, it should be noted that the generated electrical stimulation is a non-invasive form, and the content of the applied electrical stimulation may be changed according to the purpose of the electrical stimulation, for example, a sine wave, a square wave or the like may be selected. The current or voltage of the waveform changes, or in the case of pulse wave, even if the frequency is the same, the duration of the stimulus can be changed by Pulse Width Modulation; or, in the hope of using DC power for stimulation. In this case, the direct current can be used as an offset, and the selected waveform is loaded thereon, which is also a feasible manner, and thus there is no limitation.

另外,進一步具有優勢地是,由於本案的穿戴結構原本即設計用於取得腦電訊號及/或其他生理訊號,因此,還可將生理訊號的檢測功能與電刺激結合在同一個裝置上,而透過這樣的結合,就等於直接提供了可確認電刺激效果的手段,無疑是更具優勢的選擇。 In addition, it is further advantageous that since the wearing structure of the present invention is originally designed to acquire an EEG signal and/or other physiological signals, the detection function of the physiological signal and the electrical stimulation can be combined on the same device. Through such a combination, it is equivalent to directly providing a means to confirm the effect of electrical stimulation, which is undoubtedly a more advantageous choice.

舉例而言,其中一種會因電刺激而改變的生理狀態是腦部活動狀態,而透過腦電訊號就可得知其變化,例如,如前所述,可觀察α波與β波的比例,進而瞭解使用者當下的放鬆、緊張程度,另外,藉由多通道的設置,可得知左右腦的活動、能量差異,再者,還可觀察出左右腦間的電位差,此外,皮層慢電位(SCP)則可用來瞭解專注力的腦部活動,而在瞭解腦部活動狀態後,就可藉由調整電刺激的各種參數,例如,電流、電壓、強度、頻率、工作週期(duty cycle)、持續期間等,而對腦部產生影響,進而達到目的,並且,也可在進行電刺激後,透過瞭解腦部活動的變化而得知電刺激的效果,並作為依據而進行調整。 For example, one of the physiological states that changes due to electrical stimulation is the brain activity state, and the change can be known through the EEG signal. For example, as described above, the ratio of the alpha wave to the beta wave can be observed. In addition, we can understand the relaxation and tension of the user at the moment. In addition, the multi-channel setting can be used to know the activity and energy difference between the left and right brains. Furthermore, the potential difference between the left and right brains can be observed. In addition, the cortical slow potential ( SCP) can be used to understand the brain activity of concentration, and after understanding the state of brain activity, it can adjust various parameters of electrical stimulation, such as current, voltage, intensity, frequency, duty cycle, The duration is affected, and the brain is affected, and the purpose is achieved. Further, after the electrical stimulation is performed, the effect of the electrical stimulation can be known by understanding the change in the brain activity, and adjustment can be made as a basis.

替代地,皮膚電活動(EDA,electrodermal activity)也是觀察生理狀態變化的一個指標。透過設置於頭部的電極,或延伸至身體其他部位的電極,例如,頸部、肩膀、手腕、手指,皆可取得進行電刺激部位的皮膚電活動,而無論是在電刺激開始前、電刺激執行期間、及/或電刺激後,都可透過觀察皮膚電活動的變化而作為決定及/或調整電刺激模式的參考。 Alternatively, electrodermal activity (EDA) is also an indicator of changes in physiological status. The electrical activity of the skin for electrical stimulation can be obtained through electrodes placed on the head or electrodes extending to other parts of the body, such as the neck, shoulders, wrists, and fingers, whether before the start of electrical stimulation or electricity. During the stimulation execution period and/or after the electrical stimulation, the changes in the electrical activity of the skin can be observed as a reference for determining and/or adjusting the electrical stimulation mode.

替代地,還可透過偵測心率變化而觀察因電刺激而改變的生理狀態。心率經過計算可得出心跳變異度(HRV,Heart Rate Variability),而心跳變異度則是已知瞭解自律神經系統最佳的途徑,因此,無論是電刺激的目的是放鬆、提升注意力、改善精神狀態、改善睡眠狀態、改變大腦狀 態、或是治療某些病徵,透過瞭解自律神經的變化,都可有效的掌控相關的生理變化,進而作為調整電刺激的依據。在此,心率的取得可透過配置光感測器,或是心電電極,沒有限制。 Alternatively, the physiological state changed by electrical stimulation can also be observed by detecting changes in heart rate. The heart rate is calculated to give the heart rate variability (HRV), and the heart rate variability is the best way to know the autonomic nervous system. Therefore, the purpose of electrical stimulation is to relax, improve attention, and improve. Mental state, improvement of sleep state, change of brain state, or treatment of certain symptoms, through the understanding of changes in autonomic nerves, can effectively control related physiological changes, and thus serve as a basis for adjusting electrical stimulation. Here, the heart rate can be obtained by arranging a photo sensor or an electrocardiographic electrode without limitation.

另一方面,當偵測腦波發現使用者出現睡意時,亦可透過電刺激的執行而達到提醒、防止入睡的效果,例如,使用者可選擇在開車、唸書的時候配戴眼鏡、耳機、頸戴結構等,並透過監測腦波、皮膚電活動、及/或心率而得知是否出現睡意,以作為產生電刺激的依據。 On the other hand, when detecting brain waves and discovering that the user is drowsing, the effect of reminding and preventing falling asleep can be achieved through the execution of electrical stimulation. For example, the user can choose to wear glasses and headphones while driving or studying. The neck wear structure, etc., and monitor the brain wave, skin electrical activity, and/or heart rate to know whether there is drowsiness as a basis for generating electrical stimulation.

在此,需注意地是,當所偵測的生理訊號為電生理訊號時,則用於取得電生理訊號的電極與用於執行電刺激的電極,還可進一步實施為彼此共用,例如,其中一個電極共用,或是兩個電極皆共用,可讓整體配置更為簡化。 Here, it should be noted that when the detected physiological signal is an electrophysiological signal, the electrode for obtaining the electrophysiological signal and the electrode for performing the electrical stimulation may be further implemented to be shared with each other, for example, One electrode is shared, or both electrodes are shared, which simplifies the overall configuration.

上述根據生理狀態而產生、調整電刺激的實施情形,可有不同的實施選擇。舉例而言,可實施為由訊號產生單元自動控制電刺激的產生、電刺激的模式、電刺激的參數,也可實施為讓使用者自行操作,例如,可透過手機螢幕、穿戴於手腕的顯示元件、眼鏡的鏡片、或耳機等,而通知使用者所測得的生理狀態資訊,之後,使用者就可透過操作介面而決定自己是否要進行電刺激、要選擇何種電刺激的模式、或是否要調整電刺激參數等,當然,也可實施為可依需求而選擇自動或手動操作模式,皆無限制。 The above-described implementation of the electrical stimulation based on the physiological state may have different implementation options. For example, it can be implemented by the signal generating unit to automatically control the generation of electrical stimulation, the mode of electrical stimulation, the parameter of electrical stimulation, or can be implemented by the user, for example, through the screen of the mobile phone and the display worn on the wrist. The component, the lens of the glasses, or the earphone, etc., notifying the user of the measured physiological state information, after which the user can determine whether he or she wants to perform electrical stimulation, which electrical stimulation mode to select, or Whether to adjust the electrical stimulation parameters, etc., of course, can also be implemented to select the automatic or manual operation mode according to the needs, there is no limit.

舉例而言,可以提供一電刺激模式集合,以供使用者自由選擇,或是進一步實施為,先根據所測得的生理狀態資訊而自集合中選擇出相關的電刺激模式後,再供使用者進行選擇,或者,也可實施為讓使用者可調整如前所述的電刺激參數設定,皆為可能的實施方式,沒有限制。 For example, a set of electrical stimulation modes may be provided for the user to freely select, or further implemented to first select a relevant electrical stimulation mode from the set according to the measured physiological state information, and then provide for use. The selection may be made, or it may be implemented so that the user can adjust the electrical stimulation parameter settings as described above, which are possible implementations, without limitation.

因此,透過穿戴結構而進行電刺激,確實提供了讓電刺激的執行更為容易的方式,若再加上可即時取得使用者的生理訊號,則更有助於改善電刺激模式的調整及選擇,以及電刺激所能達到的效果,故確實是相當具有優勢的方式。 Therefore, electrical stimulation through the wearing structure does provide a way to make the implementation of electrical stimulation easier. If the physiological signal of the user can be obtained immediately, it is more helpful to improve the adjustment and selection of the electrical stimulation mode. And the effect that electrical stimulation can achieve, it is indeed a very advantageous way.

另一方面,在本發明的眼鏡結構及/或耳戴結構可取得腦電訊號的前提下,特別地是,還可應用於執行生理共振刺激(Physiological Resonance Stimulation)。 On the other hand, on the premise that the eyeglass structure and/or the ear-wearing structure of the present invention can obtain an electroencephalogram signal, in particular, it can also be applied to perform physiological resonance stimulation (Physiological Resonance Stimulation).

首先,一腦部活動偵測單元會透過至少二腦電電極而取得一特定時間的腦電訊號,之後,透過一處理單元對所取得之腦電訊號執行頻域分析處理,例如,透過傅立葉轉換,或是利用數位濾波器,可獲得腦電訊號的能量分布,接著,分別在不同腦波頻段中,例如,δ頻段(0.1-3赫茲),θ頻段(4-7赫茲),慢速α頻段(8-9赫茲),中間α頻段(9-12赫茲),快速α頻段(12-14赫茲),慢速β頻段(12.5-16赫茲),中間β頻段(16.5-20赫茲),快速β頻段(20.5-28赫茲),或是其他頻段,可觀察到該段時間內的一個或數個能量峰值(peak energy),例如,於α頻段內出現8赫茲的能量峰值,或同時出現8赫茲及10赫茲的能量峰值,而在選定一頻段範圍,例如,選擇α頻段、或是自行定義的一頻段範圍後,一刺激訊號產生單元就能以該頻段內的該能量峰值的頻率作為基礎而產生一生理刺激訊號,並施加至使用者。 First, a brain activity detecting unit obtains an EEG signal for a specific time through at least two EEG electrodes, and then performs a frequency domain analysis process on the acquired EEG signals through a processing unit, for example, through Fourier transform. Or use a digital filter to obtain the energy distribution of the EEG signal, and then in different brainwave bands, for example, δ band (0.1-3 Hz), θ band (4-7 Hz), slow α Frequency band (8-9 Hz), intermediate alpha band (9-12 Hz), fast alpha band (12-14 Hz), slow beta band (12.5-16 Hz), intermediate beta band (16.5-20 Hz), fast In the beta band (20.5-28 Hz), or in other bands, one or several peak energies during that time can be observed, for example, an energy peak of 8 Hz in the alpha band, or 8 Hertz and 10 Hz energy peaks, and after selecting a frequency range, for example, selecting an alpha band or a self-defined range of frequencies, a stimulus signal generating unit can be based on the frequency of the energy peak in the band. Producing a physiological stimulus signal and applying To the user.

在此,需注意地是,該特定時間可實施為即時,例如,每秒鐘或更短的時間即執行一次頻域分析處理,也可取較長的一段時間,例如,5分鐘或更長的時間,再將長時間分段執行頻域分析處理,之後再取平均值, 或是整段時間直接進行頻域分析處理,都是可能的方式,可依實際需求而改變,沒有一定的限制。 Here, it should be noted that the specific time can be implemented as instant, for example, the frequency domain analysis process is performed once every second or less, or for a longer period of time, for example, 5 minutes or longer. Time, then long-term segmentation to perform frequency domain analysis processing, then take the average value, or directly perform frequency domain analysis processing for the entire period of time, is a possible way, can be changed according to actual needs, without certain restrictions.

至於刺激訊號之頻率的決定,經研究後較佳的方式是,選擇與該能量峰值具有頻率比例關係的頻率,例如,若假設刺激訊號的頻率為n,能量峰值的頻率為m,則n與m為整數的比例關係皆為可行,例如,n:m可以為1:2,1:3,2:3,3:2,3:1等,沒有限制,如此一來,透過兩者間所具有的比例關係,就能有利於達到同步(entrainment),進而達到共振(resonance)現象。 As for the decision of the frequency of the stimulation signal, the preferred way after the study is to select a frequency having a frequency proportional relationship with the energy peak. For example, if the frequency of the stimulation signal is assumed to be n and the frequency of the energy peak is m, then n and It is feasible that m is an integer proportional relationship. For example, n:m can be 1:2, 1:3, 2:3, 3:2, 3:1, etc., without limitation, so that through the two With the proportional relationship, it can be beneficial to achieve the entrainment and thus the resonance phenomenon.

在此,需要注意地是,只要是根據上述方法所決定該峰值能量頻率及頻率比例關係,在實際實施時,皆可容許些微的偏移,皆屬本發明的範疇,沒有限制,另外,也可混合分別具有不同比例關係的刺激訊號,例如,混合比例關係分別為1:2,以及1:3的兩種刺激訊號,以透過多個諧波成分而更有利於達成同步/共振,而且,混合的訊號比例、強度及種類還可實施為隨著時間而改變,再者,當實施為提供聽覺刺激時,可進一步混合音樂,例如,自然界的聲音,以增加使用者的接受度。因此,可以有各種可能,沒有限制。 Here, it should be noted that as long as the peak energy frequency and the frequency proportional relationship are determined according to the above method, a slight offset can be tolerated in actual implementation, which is within the scope of the present invention, and is not limited, and The stimulation signals having different proportional relationships may be mixed, for example, the mixing ratio relationship is 1:2, and the 1:3 stimulation signals are respectively transmitted to transmit synchronization/resonance through multiple harmonic components, and The mixed signal ratio, intensity, and type can also be implemented to change over time. Further, when implemented to provide an auditory stimulus, music can be further blended, for example, natural sounds to increase user acceptance. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no restrictions.

當達到共振之後,其中一種可能是,可達到增大目標峰值能量的效果,例如,所選定的8赫茲能量峰值,會出現振幅的增加,另一種可能則是,可對所選定頻段內的能量峰值的頻率產生影響,例如,當達共振後,可藉由改變外部施加刺激的頻率,例如,由8赫茲改變為8.1赫茲,以透過共振所產生的兩者間牽引力量,使得該能量峰值的頻率因此而發生改變,如此一來,就可透過逐漸增加或減少施加刺激頻率的方式,而達到改 變原有自然頻率的牽引效應。 When resonance is reached, one of the possibilities is to increase the peak energy of the target. For example, the selected 8 Hz energy peak will increase the amplitude, and the other may be the energy in the selected frequency band. The frequency of the peak has an effect, for example, when the resonance is reached, by changing the frequency of the externally applied stimulus, for example, from 8 Hz to 8.1 Hz, to transmit the traction force between the two through the resonance, so that the energy peak The frequency is thus changed, so that the traction effect of changing the original natural frequency can be achieved by gradually increasing or decreasing the frequency of applying the stimulation frequency.

進一步地,透過增大目標峰值能量的方式、或是透過改變所提供之刺激訊號的頻率而達到牽引並影響該能量峰值的頻率的方式,就有可能獲得改變生理、或腦部狀態、及/或意識狀態的效果,例如,能誘發睡眠狀態、清醒程度、放鬆程度、冥想深度(meditation depth)等各種人體生理狀態,也可對於一些相關於腦部活動的疾病,例如,癲癇、偏頭痛等有正面的效應。 Further, by increasing the target peak energy or by changing the frequency of the supplied stimulation signal to achieve the frequency of pulling and affecting the peak of the energy, it is possible to obtain a change in physiology, or brain state, and/or Or the effect of the state of consciousness, for example, various physiological states of the human body such as sleep state, awake degree, degree of relaxation, meditation depth, etc., and diseases related to brain activity, such as epilepsy, migraine, etc. There is a positive effect.

至於刺激訊號的種類則有各種可能,例如,視覺刺激訊號,聽覺刺激訊號,或電刺激訊號等都是可行的方式,舉例而言,視覺刺激訊號可以是具比例關係之閃爍頻率的視頻訊號,例如,可利用設置LED、LCD、或其他顯示元件而實施為閃光的形式,聽覺刺激訊號可以是具比例關係之聲音變化頻率的音頻訊號,例如,可利用發聲元件(空氣傳導式或骨傳導式)而產生,而在一特殊的實施例中,聽覺刺激訊號的產生則是可透過兩個聲音產生源來達成,亦即利用所謂的雙聲道拍頻(Binaural beats)方法,藉由提供具有一頻率差的兩個聽覺訊號,並使該頻率差與該目標峰值的頻率具比例關係,而當此兩個聽覺訊號同時被饋入腦部時,大腦最終會產生感覺到具有該頻率差的一第三聽覺訊號的效果,而這樣的兩個聲音產生源,則有各種實施方式,例如,可於眼鏡結構兩側鏡腳上皆設置發聲元件,此種方式尤其適合採用骨傳導式發聲元件,如此一來,眼鏡結構造型將不會有太大改變;或者,發聲元件也可設置於由眼鏡結構延伸而出的耳戴結構上,例如,可由單邊鏡腳延伸出兩個耳戴結構,或分別由兩鏡腳各延伸出一耳戴結構,以設置於兩個耳朵上;或者,也相當適合實施於單獨採用 兩個耳戴結構的情形,只需分別增設發聲元件即可,都是可實施方式。 There are various possibilities for the type of stimulus signal. For example, visual stimulation signals, auditory stimulation signals, or electrical stimulation signals are all feasible methods. For example, the visual stimulation signal can be a video signal with a proportional relationship of the blinking frequency. For example, it can be implemented in the form of a flash by using an LED, LCD, or other display element. The auditory stimulation signal can be an audio signal with a proportional change in the frequency of the sound. For example, an acoustic element (air conduction or bone conduction) can be utilized. And in a special embodiment, the generation of the auditory stimulation signal is achieved by two sound generation sources, that is, by using a so-called Binaural beats method, by providing a frequency difference of two auditory signals, and the frequency difference is proportional to the frequency of the target peak, and when the two auditory signals are simultaneously fed into the brain, the brain eventually produces a feeling of having the frequency difference The effect of a third auditory signal, and such two sound generating sources, there are various embodiments, for example, mirrors on both sides of the glasses structure The sounding element is arranged on the top, which is particularly suitable for the use of the bone conduction sounding element, so that the shape of the eyeglass structure will not change much; or the sounding element can also be placed on the ear worn by the eyeglass structure. Structurally, for example, two ear-wearing structures may be extended from the single-sided temple, or an ear-wearing structure may be respectively extended from the two-legged legs to be disposed on the two ears; or, it is also suitable for being implemented separately. In the case of an ear-wearing structure, it is only necessary to add a sounding component separately, which is an implementable method.

電刺激亦有不同的實施形式,如前所述,可透過選擇不同的電流、電壓施加波形而改變電刺激的型態,此外,電刺激還可選擇刺激的部位,如前所述,可透過經顱電刺激、經皮神經電刺激、或是透過舌頭電刺激等方式而執行,因此,有各種可能。 Electrical stimulation also has different implementation forms. As mentioned above, the type of electrical stimulation can be changed by selecting different currents and voltages to apply waveforms. In addition, electrical stimulation can also select the location of stimulation, as described above. Transcranial electrical stimulation, transcutaneous electrical stimulation, or electrical stimulation through the tongue, etc., therefore, there are various possibilities.

再者,除了施加單種刺激外,亦可同時施加兩種以上的刺激,例如,同實施加視覺刺激以及聽覺刺激,或是同時施加電刺激以及聽覺刺激等,或是對不同的大腦皮質區域同時執行電刺激,都是可以選擇的執行方式,另外,第二個刺激源也可實施為由外部裝置提供,例如,發光源,發聲源,手機等,沒有限制,而在此情形下,多種刺激的頻率則可以相同或不同,沒有限制,只需與該能量峰值具頻率比例關係即可。 Furthermore, in addition to applying a single stimulus, two or more stimuli can be applied simultaneously, for example, with the addition of visual stimuli and auditory stimuli, or simultaneous application of electrical stimuli and auditory stimuli, or to different cerebral cortical regions. Simultaneous execution of electrical stimulation is an optional execution mode. In addition, the second stimulation source can also be implemented by an external device, for example, a light source, a sound source, a mobile phone, etc., without limitation, and in this case, a plurality of The frequency of stimulation can be the same or different, there is no limit, and only need to have a frequency proportional relationship with the energy peak.

接著,在透過共振的方式而進行刺激後,藉由腦電訊號的偵測,亦可於刺激期間、及/或之後,透過觀察腦波而得知刺激的效果,例如,目標峰值的能量是否增加,及/或其增大的幅度等,也因此,可在效果未達成時,即時地改變刺激的執行方式,例如,能量增大的幅度未達預期時,可加強刺激的強度,或是增長刺激的時間,或是改變刺激訊號的波形等,都有助於增加刺激的效果。 Then, after stimulation by means of resonance, the detection of the EEG signal can also be used to observe the effect of the stimulus during the stimulation period and/or after the stimulation, for example, whether the energy of the target peak is Increase, and/or its magnitude of increase, etc., and thus, the manner in which the stimulus is performed can be changed instantaneously when the effect is not achieved, for example, when the magnitude of the energy increase is less than expected, the intensity of the stimulus can be enhanced, or Increasing the time of stimulation, or changing the waveform of the stimulus signal, can help increase the stimulating effect.

這樣的共振刺激方式能夠準確地針對人體既有的腦波頻率進行共振刺激,以達到增強的效果,並可即時進行調整,是非常具效率的生理刺激方式。 Such a resonance stimulation method can accurately perform resonance stimulation on the brain wave frequency of the human body to achieve an enhanced effect, and can be adjusted immediately, which is a very efficient physiological stimulation mode.

在此,同樣地,無論是所施加之共振生理刺激的種類,或是執行的模式、參數設定等,亦可實施為讓使用者自行選擇,例如,透過眼鏡 結構、耳戴結構所提供的輸入操作介面,例如,按鈕,觸控介面,光感應,語音控制等,或是與眼鏡結構相互溝通的外部裝置,例如,手機、或腕戴裝置等之操作介面而執行,另外,因施加共振生理刺激所造成的生理狀態改變,也可透過設置於眼鏡結構上的資訊提供單元、或是與眼鏡結構相互溝通的外部裝置而提供給使用者,例如,可透過視覺、聽覺、觸覺等形式,有助於讓使用者更加瞭解自己當前的生理狀態,也有助於腦波共振的達成。 Here, similarly, the type of the resonant physiological stimulus applied, the mode of execution, the parameter setting, and the like may be implemented to allow the user to select, for example, the input provided by the eyeglass structure or the ear wearing structure. The operation interface, for example, a button, a touch interface, a light sensor, a voice control, or the like, or an external device that communicates with the eyeglass structure, for example, an operation interface of a mobile phone or a wrist-worn device, and, in addition, applies a resonance physiology The physiological state change caused by the stimulation can also be provided to the user through an information providing unit provided on the structure of the glasses or an external device communicating with the structure of the glasses, for example, through visual, auditory, tactile, etc. Helps users to better understand their current physiological state, and also contribute to the realization of brain wave resonance.

在一特殊實施例中,如圖20A-20B所示,其實施為設置於頭頂的頭帶配合設置於兩耳之耳內殼體或耳罩的形式,這樣的設置非常適合用於取得大腦皮質頂葉區的腦電訊號,其中,如圖所示,當耳戴結構實施為耳內殼體形式時,其與頭戴結構間的結合主要會實施為透過連接線來達成,而當耳戴結構實施為耳罩形式時,其與頭戴結構間的結合則主要會實施為兩者整合為一體的形式,但並非絕對,其他實施方式亦為可行。 In a particular embodiment, as shown in Figures 20A-20B, it is implemented in the form of a headband disposed on the top of the head that fits over the inner ear shell or earmuff of both ears. Such an arrangement is well suited for obtaining cerebral cortex. The electroencephalogram of the parietal region, wherein, as shown in the figure, when the ear-wearing structure is implemented in the form of an in-ear housing, the coupling between the ear-wearing structure and the head-wearing structure is mainly implemented by the connecting line, and when the ear is worn When the structure is implemented in the form of an earmuff, the combination with the headgear structure is mainly implemented as a form in which the two are integrated, but it is not absolute, and other embodiments are also feasible.

在實施時,可如圖所示,將兩電極191,192皆設置於頭戴上對應於大腦皮質頂葉區的位置,以取得腦電訊號,或者,也可再於耳戴結構上設置一個電極作為參考電極,以與頭頂上兩個電極分別利用參考組合範式而取得雙通道腦電訊號,或者,也可實施為一個電極設置於頭帶上,一個電極設置於耳戴結構上,同樣可取得大腦皮質頂葉區的腦電訊號;另外,替代地,也可將電極設置於接近大腦皮質顳葉區的位置,例如,頭帶接近耳朵的位置,或是耳戴結構上,尤其適合耳罩形式的結構,就可取得大腦皮質顳葉區的腦電訊號,故可依實際需求而改變,沒有限制。而電極除了用來取得腦電訊號外,也可用來進行電刺激,例如,經顱電刺激,共振生理刺激等,或者,也可利用依附元件而設置電刺激電極,例如,延伸 自頭戴結構或耳戴結構。在此,進一步地,為了克服頭頂毛髮所可能造成的電極接觸問題,設置於頭帶上的電極,較佳地是,實施為具有如前所述的接觸確保結構,一方面讓電極能夠穿過毛髮,另一方面也增加接觸範圍。 In the implementation, as shown in the figure, the two electrodes 191, 192 can be placed on the head corresponding to the position of the parietal lobe of the cerebral cortex to obtain the EEG signal, or a set of the ear-wearing structure can be further disposed. The electrode is used as a reference electrode to obtain a two-channel electroencephalogram signal by using a reference combination paradigm with the two electrodes on the top of the head, or alternatively, one electrode is disposed on the headband, and one electrode is disposed on the ear-wearing structure. Obtaining an electroencephalogram of the parietal region of the cerebral cortex; alternatively, the electrode can be placed close to the cerebral cortex and temporal region, for example, the position of the headband close to the ear, or the ear-wearing structure, especially for the ear. In the form of a hood, the brain electrical signal of the cerebral cortex and temporal region can be obtained, so it can be changed according to actual needs, and there is no limit. In addition to being used to obtain EEG signals, electrodes can also be used for electrical stimulation, for example, transcranial electrical stimulation, resonant physiological stimulation, etc., or electrical stimulation electrodes can be provided using attached components, for example, extending from a head-mounted structure or Ear wear structure. Further, in order to overcome the electrode contact problem that may be caused by the hair on the head, the electrode disposed on the headband is preferably implemented to have a contact securing structure as described above, and on the other hand, the electrode can pass through Hair, on the other hand, also increases the range of contact.

而由於其正好符合一般常見的頭戴式耳機的形式,因此,亦相當適合於耳戴結構內設置發聲元件(空氣傳導式或骨傳導式),如此一來,就能自然地提供使用者音頻,例如,用來進行播放儲存於內部的音樂,例如,mp3聲音檔案,或是播放來自外部裝置的音樂,或者,也可用來提供相關的生理資訊、操作資訊等,例如,進行生理回饋/呼吸訓練等,或者,更進一步地,還可用來進行生理刺激,例如,上述的各種聽覺刺激,而且,由於可於雙邊皆設置發聲元件,故亦可實施為利用上述的雙聲道拍頻方式來進行生理刺激。 Since it is in the form of a commonly used headset, it is also quite suitable for setting the sounding component (air conduction or bone conduction) in the earwear structure, so that the user audio can be naturally provided. For example, it is used to play music stored internally, for example, an mp3 sound file, or to play music from an external device, or to provide relevant physiological information, operation information, etc., for example, for physiological feedback/breathing Training, etc., or, further, can also be used to perform physiological stimulation, for example, various types of auditory stimuli described above, and since the sounding elements can be provided on both sides, it can also be implemented to utilize the above-described two-channel beat frequency method. Perform physiological stimulation.

故在此架構下,不但能取得腦電訊號及/或執行電刺激,還能提供音頻及/或執行聽覺刺激,再加上是一般常見的耳機形式,使用者的接受度相當高,是十分具有優勢的選擇。 Therefore, under this framework, not only can you get EEG signals and/or perform electrical stimulation, but also provide audio and/or perform auditory stimulation. In addition, it is a common form of earphones. The user's acceptance is quite high. Have an advantageous choice.

而這樣的形式,只要採用柔軟舒適的材質,就相當適合於睡眠期間使用。在睡眠期間,透過偵測腦電訊號,瞭解腦部活動情形,例如,快速動眼期,深睡期等,除了可提供有助於睡眠的音樂外,亦可用來決定施加於腦部的各種刺激,例如,電刺激、聽覺刺激等,而正如前述,施加於人體的刺激具有改善/誘發睡眠狀態的效果,因此,透過這樣的配置,將可自然地達成上述的各種刺激方式,相當具有優勢;且進一步地,還可增設其他的生理感測元件,以取得其他的生理訊號,例如,可利用光感測器取得血液生理訊號,進而得知心率、呼吸、血氧濃度等資訊,也可設置其 他電極而取得如眼電訊號,肌電訊號,以及皮膚電訊號等生理訊號,或是再增設麥克風,可得知呼吸情形、打鼾、呼吸中止(Sleep Apnea)事件等資訊,而這些都有助於更詳細地瞭解睡眠狀況,並且,除了可用於調整生理刺激外,也可將生理訊號記錄下來用於睡眠診斷分析。 Such a form, as long as it is soft and comfortable, is quite suitable for use during sleep. During sleep, by detecting brain signals, you can understand brain activity, such as rapid eye movement, deep sleep, etc. In addition to providing music that helps sleep, it can also be used to determine various stimuli applied to the brain. For example, electrical stimulation, auditory stimulation, etc., and as described above, the stimulation applied to the human body has an effect of improving/inducing a sleep state, and therefore, through such a configuration, various stimulation modes described above can be naturally achieved, which is quite advantageous; Further, other physiological sensing components may be added to obtain other physiological signals. For example, a blood sensor may be used to obtain a blood physiological signal, thereby obtaining information such as heart rate, respiration, blood oxygen concentration, and the like. Other electrodes can obtain physiological signals such as EO, EMG, and skin electrical signals, or add a microphone to learn about breathing, snoring, Sleep Apnea events, etc. Learn more about sleep in more detail, and in addition to being used to adjust physiological stimuli, you can also record physiological signals for sleep. Off analysis.

另外,具優勢地是,基於腦電訊號及/或其他生理訊號的偵測,還可在進行電刺激及/或共振刺激前,先透過觀察生理訊號而瞭解生理狀態,進而作為是否進行刺激的決定依據,及/或要進行何種刺激的依據。 In addition, based on the detection of EEG signals and/or other physiological signals, it is also possible to observe physiological signals by observing physiological signals before performing electrical stimulation and/or resonance stimulation, and then whether or not to perform stimulation. Determine the basis on which and/or what stimulus to perform.

其中,若刺激的目的是在於放鬆、提高專注度、改變精神狀態、改變/誘發睡眠狀態、改變大腦狀態,例如,認知狀態(cognitive state)等,則可先透過觀察腦波或其他的生理訊號而得知生理狀態是否處於穩定的生理狀態,以決定是否可開始進行刺激,及/或要執行何種刺激較為適合,可有助於更迅速達到刺激的效果。 Among them, if the purpose of stimulation is to relax, improve concentration, change mental state, change/inducing sleep state, change brain state, for example, cognitive state, etc., first observe the brain wave or other physiological signals. It is helpful to know whether the physiological state is in a stable physiological state to determine whether the stimulation can be started, and/or which stimulation is to be performed, which may help to achieve the stimulation effect more quickly.

舉例而言,透過觀察腦波可得知使用者當前是處於放鬆或緊張的狀態,例如,α波佔優勢表示處於較放鬆狀態,β波佔優勢則表示處於緊張狀態;另一方面,若設置有其他生理感測元件,則可透過其他的生理訊號來瞭解使用者的生理狀態,例如,光感測器可取得使用者的心率,以藉RSA現象得知使用者的呼吸頻率,利用心跳變異率得知自律神經系統活動情形,及/或觀察心率與呼吸間的相干性等,而這些都可代表使用者是否處於穩定的生理狀態。 For example, by observing the brain waves, it can be known that the user is currently in a state of relaxation or tension. For example, the α wave predominance indicates that it is in a relaxed state, and the β wave predominance indicates that it is in a state of tension; on the other hand, if it is set Other physiological sensing components can be used to understand the physiological state of the user through other physiological signals. For example, the light sensor can obtain the user's heart rate, and the RSA phenomenon can be used to know the user's respiratory rate and utilize the heartbeat variation. The rate is known to the activity of the autonomic nervous system, and/or to observe the coherence between heart rate and respiration, etc., and these can represent whether the user is in a stable physiological state.

透過這樣的事先觀察,就可利用先行設定預設條件的方式,而讓刺激能夠在最能產生效果的情形下執行,例如,若觀察的是腦波,則可觀察持續一段時間內或是多個分段時間之間,特定頻段內的能量分布情形 是否穩定,或能量峰值是否一致等,若觀察的是心率,則可觀察心跳頻率、呼吸頻率、心跳變異率、心率與呼吸間的相干性等是否落在預設的範圍內。 Through such prior observation, you can use the method of setting the preset conditions first, and let the stimulation be performed in the most effective way. For example, if you observe the brain wave, you can observe it for a period of time or more. Between the segmentation time, whether the energy distribution in a specific frequency band is stable, or whether the energy peak is consistent, etc. If the heart rate is observed, the heartbeat frequency, respiratory rate, heart rate variability, heart rate and respiration between the breath can be observed. Whether it falls within the preset range.

且再進一步,若使用者處於不適合的生理狀態,例如,較為不穩定的生理狀態時,還可透過如前所述的生理回饋、及/或呼吸導引/呼吸訓練程序而讓使用者處於較穩定及放鬆的生理狀態後,再進行共振刺激/電刺激,進而讓整體程序的效果更為顯著。因此,有各種可能,沒有限制。 Further, if the user is in an unsuitable physiological state, for example, a relatively unstable physiological state, the user may be placed in the physiological feedback, and/or the respiratory guidance/breathing training program as described above. After a stable and relaxed physiological state, resonance stimulation/electric stimulation is performed to make the overall procedure more effective. Therefore, there are various possibilities and no restrictions.

此決定程序可實施為在穿戴裝置上執行,或是將生理訊號傳輸至外部裝置後,而由外部裝置來執行,例如,透過無線傳輸將生理訊號傳送至手機,並藉由手機中的應用程式來計算並決定是否要執行刺激,以及要執行何種刺激。 The decision process can be implemented to be performed on the wearable device or to transmit the physiological signal to the external device, and the external device can perform the process, for example, transmitting the physiological signal to the mobile phone through wireless transmission, and using the application in the mobile phone. To calculate and decide whether to perform the stimulus and what stimulus to perform.

在此,需注意地是,雖然上述有關刺激的敘述是以眼鏡結構為主,然而,正如本領域具通常知識者所熟知,眼鏡結構是屬於頭戴結構的一種,因此,上述的所有內容亦適合應用於以頭戴結構為基礎的裝置,無論是用以取得生理訊號,或是執行刺激,因此,其亦屬本發明的範疇。 Here, it should be noted that although the above description about the stimulus is based on the spectacles structure, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the spectacles structure is a type of head-mounted structure, and therefore, all of the above contents are also It is suitable for use in a head-mounted structure-based device, whether it is for obtaining physiological signals or performing stimulation, and therefore it is also within the scope of the present invention.

再一個常見的應用是作為人機介面(HMI,Human Machine Interface),例如,可透過偵測腦電訊號而分析得出使用者的意圖(intention),或是偵測使用者的生理變化,再透過與一指令對照表進行比對,進而轉換為操作指令,以控制與該人機介面相結合的裝置,或是遙控外部的裝置。近年來,這樣的人機介面配合生理回饋也被應用於遊戲,例如,透過遊戲的呈現方式而讓使用者訓練專注力等。 Another common application is as a Human Machine Interface (HMI), for example, by detecting an EEG signal to analyze a user's intention, or detecting a user's physiological changes, and then By comparing with an instruction comparison table, it is converted into an operation command to control a device combined with the human machine interface or a remote control external device. In recent years, such human-machine interface and physiological feedback have also been applied to games, for example, allowing users to train their concentration through the presentation of games.

由於根據本發明的感測器是採用耳戴或眼鏡形式,故亦適合使用作為人機介面,而在所檢測的生理訊號包括腦電訊號、眼動訊號、肌電 訊號、心率序列等的情形下,可用於產生指令的方式有下列幾種可能方式。 Since the sensor according to the present invention is in the form of earwear or glasses, it is also suitable for use as a human-machine interface, and the detected physiological signals include electroencephalogram signals, eye movement signals, myoelectric signals, heart rate sequences, and the like. There are several possible ways in which instructions can be used to generate instructions.

舉例而言,但不限制,由於腦波中α波所佔的比例,隨著閉眼及睜眼的動作有很大的變化,一般而言,當閉眼時,α波的比例會大幅提昇,因此,就可以此作為產生指令的依據;或是,肌電訊號(EMG)可分辨肌肉是否收縮施力,就可透過左右邊牙齒分別的咬合用力而下達指令;或是,經由心率序列所產生的RSA現象可取得呼吸頻率,故可藉由改變呼吸行為,而下達指令。 For example, but not limited to, because the proportion of alpha waves in brain waves varies greatly with the movements of closed eyes and blinks, in general, when the eyes are closed, the proportion of alpha waves is greatly increased, so This can be used as a basis for generating instructions; or, the EMG can distinguish whether the muscles are contracted or not, and can be commanded by the force of the left and right teeth respectively; or, via the heart rate sequence The RSA phenomenon can obtain the respiratory rate, so the instruction can be issued by changing the breathing behavior.

另外,當鏡框單元上設有電極以接觸眼睛四周,例如,鼻梁、山根、兩眼間區域、及/或眼眶上下緣等位置,就可偵測到眼部的動作並取得眼電訊號(EOG),而且,還可透過設置多組電極而分別偵測左右眼的動作,如此一來,就可藉由眼部的動作而下達指令,舉例而言,眨眼有左右眼單獨以及兩眼同時眨,眨眼速度/頻率,開眼/閉眼的動作,以及開閉眼間的時間間隔等,而眼球活動則有向左及向右移動、或有順逆時針方向旋轉等,故透過上述的多種動作,就可分別作為不同的指令,例如,可同時眨兩眼來啟動/關閉裝置及/或啟動裝置的某項功能,例如,生理訊號測量、資訊提供、影像/聲音提供等;或是,右眼眨代表輸入(ENTER),左眼眨代表取消(CANCEL),單眼或兩眼同時連續快眨若干次代表跳出(ESC),另外,也可利用增長開眼或閉眼的時間來下達指令;或是,眼球向右轉動表示下一頁,以及眼球向左轉動表示上一頁等;或是,可透過組合多個眼睛動作而達成不同的指令,故不受限制,可依實際需求而有不同的定義。 In addition, when the frame unit is provided with electrodes to contact the eyes, for example, the nose bridge, the root of the mountain, the area between the eyes, and/or the upper and lower edges of the eyelids, the action of the eye can be detected and the EOG can be obtained (EOG). Moreover, it is also possible to detect the movements of the left and right eyes separately by setting a plurality of sets of electrodes, so that the instructions can be issued by the action of the eyes, for example, the blinks have left and right eyes alone and both eyes simultaneously , blink speed/frequency, open/closed eye movement, and time interval between opening and closing eyes, while eye movements move to the left or right, or counterclockwise rotation, so through the above various actions, As separate instructions, for example, two eyes can be activated at the same time to activate/deactivate the device and/or activate a certain function of the device, for example, physiological signal measurement, information provision, image/sound supply, etc.; or, right eyelid representation Enter (ENTER), the left eyelid represents cancellation (CANCEL), one eye or two eyes simultaneously and several times to represent the jump out (ESC), in addition, you can also use the time to increase open or closed eyes to give instructions; or The eyeball rotates to the right to indicate the next page, and the eyeball rotates to the left to indicate the previous page, etc.; or, different commands can be achieved by combining multiple eye movements, so it is not limited and can be different according to actual needs. definition.

然而,由於人平時就會有眨眼及活動眼球的自然動作,因此,還可配合上其他的回應條件,以讓指令的下達更為順利,舉例而言,可透 過一提示單元產生訊息來讓使用者瞭解其所做出的指令與受控裝置間的執行情形,例如,可於眼鏡結構上設置振動模組,以透過振動訊息來與使用者間進行互動,例如,可利用振動訊息來告知使用者已進入可接收指令的狀態,而讓使用者知道可開始眼睛的動作,進而輸入指令;或者,振動訊息可在使用者執行完眼睛動作後,作為輸入已完成的確認通知,或是實施為以振動訊息通知使用者已收到指令,需進一步確認是否執行,此時,就可藉由再次執行同樣的動作、或指定的動作來進行確認;替代地,也可透過聽覺訊息或視覺訊息來提示使用者,並與使用者進行互動,而透過如此的方式,將可使得整個操作流程變得更為容易且方便方便。 However, since people usually have blinks and natural movements of eye movements, they can also cooperate with other response conditions to make the instructions more smoothly. For example, a message can be generated through a prompting unit. Knowing the execution between the instructions and the controlled device, for example, a vibration module can be placed on the eyeglass structure to interact with the user through the vibration message, for example, using a vibration message to inform the use The user has entered the state of receiving the command, and let the user know that the action of the eye can be started, and then input the command; or, the vibration message can be used as an input confirmation notification after the user performs the eye action, or is implemented as The vibration message notifies the user that the command has been received, and further confirmation is required whether the execution is performed. In this case, the same action or the specified action can be performed again to confirm; alternatively, the auditory message or the visual message can also be used. Prompt the user and interact with the user, and in this way, the entire process will be made even more Easy and convenient.

替代地,也可配合動作感測元件,例如,加速度器,陀螺儀,磁感測器,來偵測身體的動作,以與眼鏡動作一起下達指令,例如,頭部的動態動作,例如,點頭、搖頭等,或是頭部的靜態姿勢改變,例如,抬頭、低頭、或不同傾斜角度等,或是手部的動作,例如,可將動作感測元件設置於腕戴結構或指戴結構上,以得知特定的手勢,或手部的靜態姿勢改變,或者,進一步地,也可兩者相互配合,得出更多的組合,故皆為適合的選擇。 Alternatively, motion sensing elements, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetic sensors, may be used to detect motion of the body to issue instructions along with the eye movements, such as dynamic movements of the head, for example, nodding , shaking the head, etc., or the static posture change of the head, for example, raising the head, bowing, or different tilt angles, or the movement of the hand, for example, the motion sensing element can be placed on the wrist wearing structure or the wearing structure In order to know the specific gesture, or the static posture of the hand changes, or, further, the two can cooperate with each other to obtain more combinations, so it is a suitable choice.

舉例而言,可透過點頭、搖頭的動作來確認已執行之眼睛動作的確認;或者,在同時眨眼可啟動/關閉裝置的情形下,可配合抬頭/低頭來區別啟動/關閉的指令,或者,可在利用眼睛動作啟動裝置的某項功能後,再配合手勢操作該項功能,例如,可在眼睛動作啟動瀏覽器後,利用手勢操作網頁的瀏覽等,有各種組合可能。 For example, the confirmation of the executed eye movement can be confirmed by the action of nodding or shaking the head; or, in the case where the blinking can be started/closed at the same time, the start/close command can be distinguished with the head/head, or After a certain function of the eye movement activation device is used, the function can be operated in conjunction with the gesture. For example, after the browser is activated by the eye movement, the browsing of the webpage can be performed by using the gesture, etc., and various combinations are possible.

當然,也可將眼睛動作配合上其他的生理訊號,例如,上述的 腦電訊號,肌電訊號,心率,呼吸行為等,或是從各種生理訊號中選擇出合適的組合,彼此配合來執行指令,如此不但可組合出更多的指令,也可讓指令的執行更為輕鬆,故沒有限制。 Of course, the eye movements can also be combined with other physiological signals, such as the above-mentioned EEG signals, myoelectric signals, heart rate, respiratory behavior, etc., or select appropriate combinations from various physiological signals, and cooperate with each other to execute instructions. So, not only can you combine more instructions, but also make the execution of instructions easier, so there is no limit.

而這樣透過穿戴眼鏡結構作為人機介面的使用方式,則可以有許多的操作應用,舉例而言,當眼鏡結構實施為具有資訊提供單元時,例如,如前所述,具有發聲元件可播放音頻,例如,mp3聲音檔案等,具有顯示元件可提供影像時,就可透過指令來操控音樂、影片等播放,例如,開始/停止,暫停,快轉/後退等,或者,當眼鏡結構實施為具有收音元件時,就可用來控制通話的接通及掛斷,或者,當眼鏡結構配置有照相機/攝影機時,可用來控制拍照,開始/停止攝影,放大/縮小等動作。在此,如前所述地,該資訊提供單元的設置方式有各種選擇,例如,可設置於單側的鏡腳上,並與另一側的生理訊號擷取單元透過有線或無線通訊的方式而進行溝通,可依實際實施方式而有所改變。 In this way, by using the wearing glasses structure as a human-machine interface, there are many operational applications. For example, when the glasses structure is implemented as having an information providing unit, for example, as described above, the sound-emitting element can play audio. For example, an mp3 sound file or the like, when the display component can provide an image, can control the playing of music, a movie, etc. through instructions, for example, start/stop, pause, fast forward/reverse, etc., or when the glasses structure is implemented to have When the radio component is used, it can be used to control the call on and off, or when the glasses structure is equipped with a camera/camera, it can be used to control photographing, start/stop photography, zoom in/out, and the like. Herein, as described above, the information providing unit can be set in various manners, for example, can be disposed on one side of the temple and communicated with the other side of the physiological signal capturing unit via wired or wireless communication. And communication can be changed according to the actual implementation.

而特別地是,這樣的例子則正好符合現今常見的AR或VR眼鏡的使用需求,例如,AR或VR眼鏡上通常具有聲音及影像提供功能,例如,儲存於眼鏡上或是來自外部裝置的音樂或影像,故只要配合上本發明概念透過眼睛動作來下達指令,將可讓使用更為自然且方便。 In particular, such an example is in line with the needs of today's common AR or VR glasses. For example, AR or VR glasses usually have sound and image providing functions, such as music stored on glasses or from external devices. Or an image, so as long as the instructions of the present invention are used to make an instruction through eye movements, the use can be made more natural and convenient.

再者,也用來遙控一般日常生活中各種裝置,例如,手機拍照/攝影,電子書瀏覽,電腦操作,例如,網頁瀏覽,如電視等家電的遙控,進行簡報期間的投影片控制,無人機的控制等,有相當多的應用可能性,十分具有優勢。 Furthermore, it is also used to remotely control various devices in daily life, such as mobile phone photography/photography, e-book browsing, computer operations, for example, web browsing, remote control of home appliances such as television, slide control during briefing, drone Control, etc., there are quite a few application possibilities, which are very advantageous.

在此,需注意的是,上述以各種生理訊號作為指令的實施例, 並不受限於單獨使用,亦可依實際需求而合併使用,如此一來,不但可組合出更多種類的指令,也讓應用範圍更廣。 Here, it should be noted that the above embodiments using various physiological signals as instructions are not limited to being used alone, and may be combined according to actual needs, so that not only a wider variety of instructions can be combined, It also makes the application wider.

綜上所述,本發明透過將一般常見眼鏡中的金屬絞鍊結構用於生理訊號擷取過程中的電傳導,而使得眼鏡結構可在不改變鏡框單元外觀的情形下,獲得電生理訊號擷取功能;再者,本發明亦提出可透過單隻鏡腳取得電生理訊號的可能,亦讓不具金屬部分的一般常見眼鏡可簡單地透過更換鏡腳的動作而獲得電生理訊號擷取功能,同樣達到不改變鏡框單元外觀的目的;並且,本發明還進一步提出可聯結至眼鏡收納動作的電路系統狀態決定機構,而透過這樣的機構,則是可讓電量消耗降低,並讓計算資源獲得更有效的利用;此外,本發明更進一步提供了利用眼鏡結構中的可導電部分來達成擷取生理訊號所需的取樣迴路,同樣讓原有眼鏡結構變動減至最小。 In summary, the present invention enables the electro-physiological signal to be obtained without changing the appearance of the frame unit by using the metal hinge structure in the common glasses for electrical conduction during the physiological signal extraction process. In addition, the present invention also proposes the possibility of obtaining an electrophysiological signal through a single temple, and also allows the common glasses without a metal portion to obtain an electrophysiological signal acquisition function simply by changing the movement of the temple. The same is achieved for the purpose of not changing the appearance of the frame unit; and the present invention further proposes a circuit system state determining mechanism that can be coupled to the eyeglass storage operation, and through such a mechanism, the power consumption can be reduced and the computing resources can be more obtained. Effective use; in addition, the present invention further provides a sampling loop required to utilize the conductive portion of the spectacles structure to achieve physiological signals, as well as minimizing changes in the original spectacles structure.

另一方面,本發明也提出透過更換眼鏡結構中特定的可更換部分的方式,而讓眼鏡結構的生理訊號擷取功能可以有更多的可能性,例如,增加取樣點,以及增加及/或更換取得之生理訊號種類等;並且,本發明更進一步透過結合模組的形式而讓眼鏡結構可獲得生理訊號擷取功能,如此一來,使用者將可不受限的使用任何形式的眼鏡而得知自身的生理狀況。 On the other hand, the present invention also proposes that by changing the specific replaceable portion of the eyeglass structure, the physiological signal capturing function of the eyeglass structure can have more possibilities, for example, increasing the sampling point, and increasing and/or The type of the physiological signal obtained is replaced, and the invention further obtains the physiological signal capturing function by combining the form of the module, so that the user can use any form of glasses without limitation. Know your own physiological condition.
