Abstract:
A human body sensing mat can sense the movement of a human body and analyze a user's sleep. The human body sensing mat may include a substrate; a plurality of fiber sensors for generating signals according to a distance to a specific object; a sensor array disposed on the substrate; a shield layer for covering the sensor array; and a driving unit for applying a voltage to the sensor array. Each of the fiber sensors is disposed on a central portion of the substrate and on both ends of the substrate. The fiber sensors that are respectively disposed in the central portion and end portions of the mat can sense the user's breathing, tossing and turning, and the like regardless of the user's posture. Accordingly, the user's sleep can be analyzed regardless of the user's posture.
