Abstract

This invention discloses a system of health management used in vehicle and a method thereof, the system comprising a host, a driving health monitoring center, a wireless transmission system, a vehicle speed monitoring device, a vehicle position detecting device, an alarm device, a bio-signal sensor, and a recording device. The bio-signal sensor detects a body information and the vehicle speed detecting device detects a acceleration/deceleration information to analyze the driving quality, and the vehicle position detecting device detects a latitude/longitude information and transmit them to the host. The recording device stores the information from the host, and transmits to the center to analyze, or presses the emergency button to respond to the host and the center, and then the center feedbacks to the host to control the telephone equipment, the alarm device, the low-voltage defibrillator or the high-voltage defibrillator to communicate, remind or rescue by the wireless transmission system.
