Abstract

A health improvement system includes at least one sensor module, a computing module, an interaction module and a database module. The sensor module is configured for detecting at least one data selected from the group consisting of user behaviors, user activities, user physical data, user psychological data, and a combination thereof, so as to generate sensor data. The computing module is configured for computing the sensor data, for generating an evaluation result to evaluate an effect for at least one user'"'"'s health, for converting the sensor data and the evaluation result to at least one internal parameter, and for changing a health condition representation according to the internal parameter. The interaction module is configured for outputting the health condition representation. The database module is configured for storing the user input parameters, the sensor data, the evaluation result, the internal parameters and the health condition representation.

Claims

1. A health improvement system, comprising:

at least one sensor module configured for detecting at least one data selected from the group consisting of user behaviors, user activities, user physical data, user psychological data, and a combination thereof, so as to generate sensor data;

a computing module configured for computing the sensor data, for generating an evaluation result to evaluate an effect for at least one user'"'"'s health, for converting the sensor data and the evaluation result to at least one internal parameter, and for changing a health condition representation according to the internal parameter;

an interaction module configured for receiving at least one user input parameter and for outputting the health condition representation; and

a database module configured for storing the user input parameters, the sensor data, the evaluation result, the internal parameters and the health condition representation.

2. The health improvement system of claim 1, wherein the computing module is further configured for searching and determining whether user data exists, wherein the user data is generated from the user input parameters or the sensor data;

if the user data exists, the computing module is further configured for loading the user data and the health condition representation; and

if the user data doesn'"'"'t exist, the computing module is further configured for generating the user data and the health condition representation according to the user input parameters.

3. The health improvement system of claim 1, wherein the computing module is further configured for adjusting a difficulty level according to the user input parameters.

4. The health improvement system of claim 1, further comprising:

a network module configured for exchanging information generated by the computing module or stored in the database module with at least one external device.

5. The health improvement system of claim 4, wherein the external device comprises a second health improvement system, a social network, a server, or a combination thereof.

6. The health improvement system of claim 4, wherein the information comprises the health condition representation, achievement information, competition information or ranking information.

7. The health improvement system of claim 1, wherein the health condition representation comprises an appearance icon of a virtual character.

8. The health improvement system of claim 1, wherein the user input parameters comprise user age data, user gender data, user height data, user weight data, a parameter for choosing virtual characters, a parameter for adjusting difficulty level, a system order, a game order, or a combination thereof.

9. The health improvement system of claim 1, wherein the computing module is further configured for determining whether user activity data meets a passing-game condition, a warning condition or a special event;

and when the user activity data meets the passing-game condition, the warning condition or the special event, the interaction module is further configured for informing the user.

10. The health improvement system of claim 9, wherein when the user activity data meets the special event, the computing module is further configured for generating award data, and for determining whether the user executes the award data;

and when the user executes the award data, the computing module is further configured for changing the health condition representation.

11. A health improvement method, comprising:

receiving at least one user input parameter;

detecting at least one data selected from the group consisting of user behaviors, user activities, physical data, psychological data, and a combination thereof, so as to generate sensor data;

computing the sensor data and generating an evaluation result to evaluate an effect for at least one user'"'"'s health;
