Medical Tablet PC: MioCARE
MioCARE has three medical systems. The first thing is the long-term care system. There are a lot of long-term care assessment scales in the system such as comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA), activity of daily living(ADL), and instrumental activity of daily living(IADL). The second thing is the hemodialysis care system. The staff of hemodialysis center can record the vital signs of patients in the MioCARE, and the manager can over view all of patients’ vital signs. The third thing is the chemotherapy drug delivery system. Medical staff can use MioCARE’s camera to read bar code of the patient and his medicine for making sure the patient follows his prescription, and they can use it to read the patients’ prescription.
MioCARE has three core functions such as reading & writing, reminding staff, and checking prescriptions. First, medical staff can read or write some information on MioCARE. Second, MioCARE can remind medical staff to follow the SOP or to deliver medicine to patients. Third, medical staff can use MioCARE to quickly make sure the patient follows his prescription.
When medical staff implement some of MioCARE features, it stops the necessity for paperwork. However, staff must use this, instead of paper. Unless hospitals have a policy to reduce the use of paper, it will be useless. Moreover, MioCARE makes medical staff can get real-time information, but only few care services need real-time data. Although, the some features of MioCARE are pretty good. One is that it can be sterilized by 75% alcohol. Another is that medical staff use it to quickly make sure the patient follows his prescription. To sum up, I think these are core advantages in a medical market.

Who Will Buy the BabyBot (Telehealth Device)?
Consumers will not buy the BabyBot without service providers because it is a meaninglessness. So, customers of BabyBot are health care service providers. The National Taiwan University Hospital, who is one of BabyBot’s customers, is worth of telehealth service providers because their business model is innovative. Most important is a few consumers willing to pay they for the telehealth service. First, their consumers are not normal people. Patients who have a cardiovascular disease, a heart failure disease, or a chronic disease are their customers because they need telehealth device to record their vital signs and to send the data to the National Taiwan University Hospital. The medicine staff can monitor the data of patients’ vital signs in the hospital without going to the patients’ house. Moreover, the telehealth package includes a telehealth device and a telehealth service. The National Taiwan University Hospital rents BabyBot to the customers and they provide health care service to the customers. Then, they will charge the total monthly fee. In 2010, they provided only package that included all of BabyBot devices and the total monthly fee was NT5’000. In 2011, they provide five packages. One of the packages includes a sphygmomanometer and a ECG recorder and the total monthly fee is NT3’900. To sum up, health care service providers are the customers of BabyBot.

What is BabyBot (telehealth system)?
BabyBot was a telehealth system that is developed by a new start-up company. It is assembled by a computer box that connects several with medicine devices such as sphygmomanometer, blood glucose meter, blood oxygen meter, scales,thermometer, ECG, and PF meter. Moreover, the users’ vital signs can be measured by each medicine device, and BabyBot gathers the data through USB lines, and the data will be sent to BabyBot’s platform. Doctors, users, and users’ families can see the data through a browser any where. BobyBot is assembled by a computer box, but it have no keyboard or mouse. It can be controlled by a remote control, so it is specifically designed for the elderly who are unfamiliar with computers. This seems to be an innovative design. To sum up, BabyBot was created by a telehealth system company that has powerful development skills.

The Start of Telehealth in Taiwan
Hualien county was the best choice to run the M-care project. Most of the social resources are concentrated in Hualien City, so most of hospitals and clinics are located in the city. And, there are few hospitals or clinics in countryside. Besides, it is extremely inconvenient going city for Hualian county residents because some geographical barriers are located in Hualian. As a result, the people who have chronic diseases are not easily tracked their conditions. We hoped that the Internet would be capable of delivering health care services in remote areas. For example, the vital signs of users who use the M-care project service could be uploaded to the server of care centers by The Internet. Health service providers could see the users’ physiological condition on the platform, and they could also take care of users’ health by video telephone.

有社會支持,死亡率降低
這種福禍共享、患難相助的感覺,正是最能激發大腦中,跟正向心情有關的多巴胺(Dopamine)等神經傳遞物質及激乳素等荷爾蒙(Hormone)。
實驗者發現:「社會支持」可以減少心臟血管方便的疾病,快樂的人較長壽,所以他們在統計數字上就突出了。
工業化的水泥叢林社會中,我們必須創造自己的「社會支持」,每一個人若能伸出自己的雙手助人,別人回報你的手,會以等比級數上升。
要抵抗憂鬱症、老年痴呆症(Alzheimer's disease,簡稱AD)等慢性疾病,「社會支持」大概是最有效、最節省社會成本的方式了。

每年固定下跌的 "健康"

發現一個有趣的現象,每年初一月二月都會出現search index 往下跌,很規律的。
好像知道這是什麼現象,放下來希望有人可以解釋,為什麼每年一二月指數都下跌。

iPhone 自有黃金屋
Smartphone可以說是台跟手機一樣小的電腦,功能強大可以滿足人們對手機的想像,尤其是上面運作的應用程式可以依每個人的喜歡自由安裝所需要的應用程式,更重要的是開放給外人開發應用程式,這是一件非常重要之舉,沒有這個開放就沒更多的人去思考幻想Smartphone可以怎麼玩,就沒有這麼多千變萬化的應用程式在上面。
黃金在哪?
上面的應用程式都是黃金,不管它是免費或是付費,都是黃金。
我只有玩過iPhone ,就拿iPhone來做說明:
APP store 上面的軟體分為付費根免費,付費的部份大家都可以想像,寫一個好的軟體大家有需求就可以收到錢,寫的越好越多人買錢賺的越多,相對的遊戲也是一樣;那麼免費的就不能賺錢嗎?Google上面的東西都是免費人家賺錢還不是賺的嚇嚇叫,從免費經濟的分類來觀察,免費的應用程式不外乎有廣告模式、互補模式、加值模式、捐助模式;最容易發現的是加值模式尤其在遊戲最多,提供一般版本免費而推出進階版需要付費;廣告模式相對的比較少,而廣告放置的方式比較有變化,有時廣告會出現應用程式在不起眼的角落,有些應用程式會將資料上傳到網站,使用者到軟體服務商的網站就看到廣告,類似的APP有RunKeeper;互補模式(體與軟體搭配)較不明顯,免強可以發現有iMyHomeLE, Life|ware,硬;捐助模式我目前還沒有遇到,如果有人發現可以跟我講;在iPhone APP免費軟體中還有一個模式,延伸服務的軟體,就是延伸原本的服務到iPhone上面,這類軟體有facebook, kkbox, FON maps, …等,讓原本的服務可以從電腦跑進iPhone裡讓使用者持續始讓原本的服務。
iPhone新貴與台灣人的機會
台灣竹科曾經出現電子新貴,這波金融海嘯襲擊後都都放無薪假,而這波iPhone 有些人專門寫iPhone的軟體賺到不少錢,以Ocarina一個0.99美元不到一個月的時間已有40萬個下載;在這波iPhone App潮,或是說這波Smartphone Application 潮台灣人的機會在哪?建議各個玩家盡情的開發想不到的應用,尤其是當Smartphone 連接到雲端時擁有無限可能,不管你買的是4G, 8G, 16G,KKBOX將100萬首歌送到你的iPhone裡,VNC隨時掌控任何的電腦,我再誇獎一次Ocarina,雖然我不太會吹奏音樂,它讓我可以聽到其他人演奏Ocarina的聲音,而且讓我感動了;還可以開發什麼應用,不要在去開發民生必需品的應用程式,除非自認為一定可以比別人開發的更好,而是要開發可以感動的人應用,感動這件事情需要一點藝術家的天份與文化素養;台灣有這麼多元的文化背景,這樣子的文化刺激將會有很多創意,用創意去滿足未曾被發掘的需求;台灣人有個特質,將一群一聚在一起的時候都跟「吃」脫離不了關係,或是也會是一個方向;或許Taipei可以辦一個「我希望iPhone可以讓我…」的活動,讓每個人說出希望iPhone可以為人們做些什麼事情,由需求下手找技術找高手來滿足這個需求,寫出創新的應用程式,藉此振奮一下台灣的軟體產業。
雖然不是每個人都想成為iPhone新貴,但我期待將來會有更多的應用在iPhone 上面,甚至看到程式設計者可以有更多元的賺錢管道;不管你正職是什麼,都有機會可以成為兼差的iPhone新貴,有創新的點子可以感動人,讓人喜愛這個程式,Think different 是非常好的字鼓勵大家也勉勵自己。
歡迎大家對這次新指多多指教,因為我也喜歡這句話
「Stay hungry, Stay foolish.」

Health Care deliver by Internet ( M-care )
In October 2006 to May 2007, I was the partimer in Tatung company. The M-care project is one of Mobile Taiwan Applications promotion project (M-Taiwan). The purpose of M-care project is deliver health care by WiMAX network (Wireless Internet) into remote country. In order to improve care service of residents in remote areas.
The most of societal resources is concentrated in Hualien City, besides there are barely clinic in countryside. Hualien county is mostly mountain terrain, so people living in countryside are inconveniently go to Hualien city. As a result, the person didn't receive care service at beginning. Making patient become more severity. We hoped that the Internet capable of delivering health care services to enhance the quality of service in remote area. For example, user's daily physiological information can upload to Internet by sensor network. The healthy services provider can understand the user's physiological state on platform, and can also concerned about user's health by video telephone every day. Beside, the doctors of mobile medical service can use Internet connect the hospital to strengthen the ability of medical care.
People always care their friends, family, etc. No matter where they are. The M-care is one of the tools connect people to people. People can easy to give social support on M-care platform. They would talk health issues or something on this platform. the social actives will bring long term and stable usage. One day, we help people more health not only the physiology health but also psychology health.
P.S.
Hualien is on the East coast of Taiwan, on the Pacific Ocean.
- Area: 29.41 km²
- Population: 110,000 people in 35,000 households
- Geographic coordinates: 121°36'23 East, 23°58'20 North
- Average annual temperature: 24°C
Social support is the physical and emotional comfort given to us by our family, friends, co-workers and others. It is knowing that we are part of a community of people who love and care for us, and value and think well of us. Social support is a way of categorizing the rewards of communication in a particular circumstance. An important aspect of support is that a message or communicative experience does not constitute support unless the receiver views it as such.

開發什麼可以避免過度開發?
在基礎建設方面開發公共衛生是可以避免開發過度的一個方案,這 比起持續建設蘇花高速公路、高速鐵路等大型建設好的多,台灣已經進入已開發國家還需要公共衛生嗎?公共衛生的建設不只在於乾淨飲水或環境衛生,而是全體國 民的身心靈的健康,全體國民的健康可以增加國人的工作壽命,也有更多人力資源持續投入生產,減少少子化帶來的人力資源的不足;再來發展老人照顧,讓輕壯年 人口可以放心無後顧之憂的到全球打拼。
在國家發展策略方向可以選擇醫療器材的設計與開發,全球醫療器材的市場逐年攀升,台灣又有電子產業ODM與OEM多年的經驗,與國外大廠策略合作,有助於提升台灣的競爭力。
無止境的開發是來滿足人類無境的慾望,讓人們有節儉的習慣可以減少不必要的浪費,更可以避免不知所終的過度開發,教育人們開始節儉,不只是教育節省自己的荷包,還需要教育節省能源、食物、水...等資源,以吃到飽的餐廳為例,吃到飽我認為是非常浪費的飲食習慣,人們因為吃到飽所以吃進去的食物會比身體所需要的食物還多,除了造成食物的浪費外,也造成身體的負擔,國人身體生病需要花費更多的社會資源,所以要使人們有節儉的習慣,不只有錢包還要節省其他資源。
健康與節約是兩項值得開發的議題,努力開發也不用擔心過度開發帶來的負面影響,不管其他人是否同意這想點,任何開發也儘量避免過度開發,不管m型社會右邊是否能夠買單;出了健康與節約外,當然也許還有其他值得開發的方向,希望網友也可以提出來與大家分享。

Free Health Care
在台灣有民間社會福利團體、地方政府社會局…等經營老人照顧事業,而在照顧產業(Healthcare Industry)中做得有聲有色大多都是非營利組織(NPO),但這些團體也揹負著沈重的財務支出,我發現需要照顧的人經濟基礎多半不好,然而提供照顧的組織礙於資源有限無法滿足所有需要的人,因為社會存在這樣子的問題,所以我們希望帶給人們生命的價值,使更多人可以被照顧被關心,而創造「"免費"的照顧服務」(Free Health Care)。
現在的市場上已經不是只有買賣雙方,而是具有三方關係,第三者(需要照顧的人)受到免費的誘惑而加入,並因而創造出待價而沽的商品「以廣告為例,這項商品就是廣告主所購買的眼球數」; 讓大部分的照顧服務(caring service)都是在網路上,因為網路基本上就是建立在免費的基礎上,網路的邊際成本(marginal cost)幾乎等於零,將許多工作轉向軟體,數位化的結果使得效率提高,讓產品的定價更彈性,因而降降許多成本,再透過免費送出某樣東西,而賣出另一樣東西「將健康照顧送給消費者,而賣出長期而穩定的需求:三餐與日常生活所需」,這個商機可大的多;最後,提供給消費者身體心靈的健康,使消費者產生信任感,增進會員的黏著力,創造長久經營的事業。
There are many groups dealing in the healthcare industry in Taiwan. Non-profit organizations always operate well in the healthcare industry, but these groups also bear a heavy outlay. I find the economic ability of the most people needing the healthcare is not very good. However, the groups providing healthcare service do not satisfy all of people in need because of limited resources. Because the community has this problem, I want to create "Free Healthcare" for taking care of more people. Markets is not as a two-way relationship between buyers and sellers, but a three-way relationship where the third party(people needing healthcare) can be drawn in by something free that creates the product to be sold. In the case of advertising, this "product" is the fabled "eyeballs" that advertisers buy. Putting the most of the services on the web, Internet service is based on free propagating the products. What the web's near-zero marginal costs encourage is for other industries to turn as many of their jobs as possible into software, so they can benefit from digital efficiencies, which gives them more flexibility over pricing. It has more business opportunities than traditional selling that to give away something to the consumer for free and sell other products. In this case, we give the healthcare to consumer for free and sell long-term and stable requirements, like diet and daily necessaries. Finally, to provide to consumers with physical and soulful health, consumers would trust in us more, and this could promote the member’s adhesion force, so it could create long-term enterprise.

交通影響 旅館與民宿
從火窗外看到的一棟棟廢棄的旅館
這景色也出現在石門水庫四周
由這一棟棟的建築中可以看出之前這裡曾經一時風光過
遊客曾經絡繹不絕,
現在沒落了嗎?
福隆每年的海洋音樂際相信帶來的不少的人潮與錢潮
假日石門水庫也聚集了不少民眾到四周踏青
之後有如一陣高潮後又歸於寧靜
旅館民宿的沒落是因為交通便利帶來的副產物嗎?
民宿旅社只提供洗澡睡覺的價值
可以推測交通便利帶來的不是房客而是路過客
人們不是來住宿而是來上廁所
鎖定的遊客需求只有洗澡睡覺當然也不需要太怒力經營地點好就可以
沙漠風情民宿不同於其他海邊民宿又在何處?
由民宿內生的文化價值
文化價值讓旅客不只是滿足洗澡睡覺吃飯的生理需求
在沙漠風情可以體驗建築物室內室外空間的驚豔
(筆者沒有去過沙漠風情,只有在外光望很久,很想進去但沒機會)
沙漠風情主人風格低調也是民宿的文化之一
旅客可以在這個空間中不被打擾的放鬆自我
宜蘭的靜園民宿,
對我而言是一個回憶
他給我的價值在於每次去像是朋友家做客一樣親切
由內生的文化價值中包含種種的價值
故事, 體驗, 養生保健, .....等
許多服務慢慢出現
像是,那之貓的小房子
內生的文化價值在於"騎單車"私密單車路線
交通問題最大的議題在於蘇花高速公路蓋不蓋?
這不是我能決定的
不管蓋與不蓋花蓮對外交通便利是潛在的需求
內生的文化價值可以防止交通便利店來的衝擊
讓人們不只滿足睡覺尿尿的生理需求外
附加了,許多附加價值的內含
Key Words: 體驗價值, 民宿, 旅社, 內生的文化價值, 交通便利

Fon茶 在家門口提供過路人使用網路,一解使用網路的渴望,即時地查詢資料收發MAIL或是撥打電話甚至無聊打屁打發時間,路過此地都可以在此免費地使用無線網路。
e. FON熱點照片分享
1)La Fonera運作中照片分享
2) FON熱點週遭的相關照片
天線下面的景象
永館里公布欄~~~ 看公佈欄時也順便上網
巷口的場景
整條巷子的全景(沒有用廣角,其實巷子更長)
f. FON地圖
檢視較大的地圖
La Fontenna setup
購買了La Fontenna Panel 這著也是放著架設起來,用最簡單的結構與材料工具來架設,跟大家做分享。
材料:水管150cm 30元、螺絲(長)*2、螺絲(短)*2、水管固定釘*2、水管訂定鐵片*1 6元、鋼釘*2、電火布兩小段、水管防漏布三小段
步驟:
1. 買水管的時候請五金行老闆切下來
(五金行通常不賣零散的)(水管有分電線走的(薄)跟水路走的(厚)),這是用的是厚的,我建議用薄的比較輕。
2. 將兩個較長的螺絲轉上去,穿過水管壁到達對面將要穿出來而不出來,目定是要讓fon 天線掛上去,兩根螺絲的距離就天線附贈的塑膠片上面兩個孔這個距離。
3. 在天線的另一端,鎖上較短的螺絲,然後在旋轉出來備用,等下就知道了。
4. 在兩個洞的外側捲上電火布,等等就知道了。
5. 到了牆壁旁邊,將水管伸出去,不要碰到電線喔,兩段電火布就是要釘上水管固定釘的位置,然後釘上去。不能用這樣方向釘,不然會固定不住。要一個上一個下才可以固定住。
6. 將天線鎖在水管上,然後用水管防漏布捲一捲整理一下。
7. 將水管由外而內插進去固定,讓水管固定釘夾住電火布,在鎖上兩顆剛剛卸下來的螺絲。
8. 調整水管,讓在La Fontenna Panel向前看。Cable再接上fon。
9. 最後在釘上水管訂定鐵片。(個人覺得那是多餘的)
在水管捲上電火布與將水管固定釘夾住電火布的目的在於防止水管會旋轉,讓fon 天線抬起頭來。
另外短的螺絲目的在於固定水管,以免被拔出。
我反而網友未來要弄得的話,一個塑膠的水管固定配上兩個鐵片水管固定,這樣子比較好插進去拔出來,也有麻擦力可以固定天線不會旋轉。
我會比較顧慮的在於窗外這麼多電線,會不會打一天 La Pontena Panel 打到電線引發電線走火;大家覺個我是不是該將水管往後收一點呢??
絕對不要這個釘,除非你看樓下那輛車不爽很久了。
鋼釘要一上一下才有辦法固定。
