Automatic transmission system of an emergency signal and a method thereof using a driver's brain wave
First Claim
1. An automatic transmission system for sending an emergency signal based on a current condition of a human driver'"'"'s brain wave, comprising:
- means for sensing a brain wave generated by the human driver and for converting the brain wave into an electric brain wave signal;
an amplifier for amplifying the electric brain wave signal inputted from the brain wave sensing means;
an analog/digital converter for converting the analog brain wave signal inputted from the amplifier into a digital brain wave signal;
a memory for storing a digitized reference brain wave emergency signal representing a condition when the life of the driver is in danger;
a micro-controller for comparing the digital brain wave signal inputted from the analog/digital converter with the reference brain wave emergency signal stored in the memory, and for producing a first information signal representing the current location of the automatic transmission system and a second information signal representing emergency information when the life of the driver is in danger; and
a transmission block for transmitting the first information signal and the second information signal by adding the information signals on a carrier signal of a high frequency.

Abstract
An automatic transmission system of an emergency signal and a method thereof using a driver'"'"'s brain wave which enables the police and hospitals, having a network with an earth station, to provide a proper and immediate rescue operation for those involved in an accident by transmitting an emergency signal derived from the driver'"'"'s brain wave to the earth station via a global positioning system (GPS) satellite if a driver is in critical condition after the accident. The automatic transmission system of an emergency signal using a driver'"'"'s brain wave includes a brain wave sensing block, an amplifier, an analog/digital converter, a memory, a microcontroller, and a transmission block.
