Sleeping Or Reclining Furniture, Analyzing Unit For A Sensor Of Sleeping Or Reclining Furniture, And Method For Analyzing Signals Of A Sensor

The invention relates to an analyzing unit (9′) for connecting to at least one sensor (12) which can be coupled to sleeping or reclining furniture in order to detect vibrations, movement, and/or sound. The analyzing unit (9′) is designed to process and analyze the signals of the at least one sensor (12) and detect physiological parameters (P) of a person using the sleeping or reclining furniture, and the analyzing unit (9′) is designed to transmit data to or exchange data with at least one external component. The invention further relates to a method for analyzing signals of at least one such sensor (12) and to sleeping or reclining furniture, in particular a bed (1), comprising at least one such sensor (12).

3 Independent Claims

  • 1.-15. (canceled)

  • 16. An analyzing unit for connection to a sensor, which can be coupled to a sleeping or reclining furniture to detect vibration, movement, and/or sound, said analyzing unit being configured to process and analyze a signal generated by the sensor, to detect a physiological parameter of a person using the sleeping or reclining furniture, and to transmit data reflective of the detected physiological parameter to an external component.

  • 26. A method for analyzing signals of a sensor, which is coupled to sleeping or reclining furniture to detect vibration, movement, and/or sound, said method comprising: detecting sensor data generated by the sensor at a first repetition frequency; analyzing the sensor data in a local analyzing unit and ascertaining a physiological parameter at a second repetition frequency, which is less than the first repetition frequency; and transmitting the ascertained physiological parameter to an external component which is further remote from the sensor than the analyzing unit.
