Abstract

According to one embodiment, an electronic device is configured to control a sensor device executing applications to measure different biomedical data values. The electronic device includes a display controller and a transmitter. The display controller displays a first image for designating an application to be executed by the sensor device, designating an execution time of the application, and designating an activation condition associated with a biomedical data value measured by the sensor device. The transmitter transmits, to the sensor device, the designated application, the designated execution time and the designated activation condition.

Claims

1. An electronic device configured to control a sensor device executing applications to measure different biomedical data values, the electronic device comprising:

a first display controller to display a first image for designating an application to be executed by the sensor device, designating an execution time of the application, and designating an activation condition associated with a biomedical data value measured by the sensor device; and

a transmitter to transmit, to the sensor device, the designated application, the designated execution time and the designated activation condition.

2. The electronic device of claim 1, further comprising a second display controller to display a second image for displaying the designated application and the designated execution time along a time axis.

3. The electronic device of claim 2, wherein the second display controller displays the second image on a screen on which the first image is displayed.

4. electronic device of claim 2, wherein

the sensor device is powered by a rechargeable battery;

and

the second image includes an estimated operation end time point of the sensor device.

5. The electronic device of claim 4, wherein the estimated operation end time point in the second image is updated in accordance with a change in the designated application and the designated execution time.

6. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the first image includes application options in association with types of sensor units in the sensor device, with user categories of the sensor device, or with application execution scenes.

7. The electronic, device of claim 6, wherein the sensor device comprises an electrocardiograph, a pulse wave meter, an acceleration sensor, and a temperature sensor.

8. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the first, image includes an application option in a predetermined manner when a condition for executing the application contradicts to the designated activation condition.

9. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the first image includes an application option in a predetermined manner when a normal operation of the sensor device is not guaranteed by an execution of the application.

10. The electronic device of claim 9, further comprising a third display controller to display a third image for indicating that the normal operation of the sensor device is not guaranteed by the execution of the application.

11. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the first image includes an application option in a predetermined manner indicating an amount of processing of the application.

12. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the first image includes an application option of a first application in a predetermined manner when a biomedical data value measured when the first application was executed was abnormal.

13. The electronic device of claim 12, wherein the first image includes an application option of a second application in a predetermined manner when a biomedical, data value measured when the first application was executed was abnormal.

14. The electronic device of claim 2, further comprising a receiver to receive an application, an execution time of the application, and an activation condition from a server, and

wherein the second image includes an first application icon of a first application designated by a user of the electronic device in a first manner, and a second application icon of a second application received from the server in a second manner.

15. A method of controlling a sensor device executing applications to measure different biomedical data values, the method comprising:

displaying a first image for designating an application to be executed by the sensor device, designating an execution time of the application, and designating an activation condition associated with a biomedical data value measured by the sensor device; and

transmitting, to the sensor device, the designated application, the designated execution time and the designated activation condition.

16. The method of claim 15, further comprising:

displaying a second image for displaying the designated application. and the designated. execution time along a time axis.

17. The method of claim 16, further comprising

displaying an estimated operation end time point of the sensor device in the second image.

20. The method of claim 16, wherein the instructions further cause a computer to

display an estimated operation end time of the sensor device in the second image.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause a computer to:

display a first image for designating an application to be executed by a sensor device, designating an execution time of the application, and designating an activation condition associated with a biomedical data value measured hr the sensor device; and

transmit, to the sensor device, the designated application, the designated execution time and the designated activation condition.

19. The storage medium of claim 18, wherein the instructions further cause a computer to:

display a second image for displaying the designated application and the designated execution time along a time axis.
