Mouth Guard Having Internal Components For Sensing Impact Forces

A mouth guard senses impact forces and determines if the forces exceed an impact threshold. If so, the mouth guard notifies the user of the risk for injury by haptic feedback, vibratory feedback, and/or audible feedback. The mouth guard system may also remotely communicate the status of risk and the potential injury. The mouth guard uses a local memory device to store impact thresholds based on personal biometric information obtained from the user and compares the sensed forces relative to those threshold values. The mouth guard and its electrical components on the printed circuit board are custom manufactured for the user such that the mouth guard provides a comfortable and reliable fit, while ensuring exceptional performance.

20230085473 · 2023-03-16 ·

The invention relates to the field of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) gyroscopes. The MEMS gyroscope of the present invention drives oscillation of at least one proof mass in a primary drive mode at a first frequency and in a secondary drive mode at a second frequency, different to the first frequency. The primary drive mode and secondary drive mode are orthogonal. Sense circuitry measures oscillation of the at least one proof mass in a sense mode, which is orthogonal to the primary drive mode and the secondary drive mode, in order to determine the angular rate of rotation of the MEMS gyroscope about sense axes parallel to the movement of the at least one proof mass in the primary and secondary drive modes.

Method for managing the energy of a system for verifying the inflation pressure of the tires of an aircraft

Method for managing the energy in a system for verifying the inflation pressure of the tires of an aircraft, consisting in measuring, by a pressure sensor, at least one inflation pressure of each of the tires, obtaining a unique identification data relating to each of the tires, and sending via the wireless communication link the measurements and data thus collected to a processing unit disposed in or out of the aircraft for them to be available to a pilot or a maintenance operator, the step of sending the measurements and data being carried out in an acyclic manner as a function of a trigger signal given by a motion detector that detects the motion of the wheels of the aircraft as long as the speed is lower than a predetermined maximum speed.

The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for noise reduction, and a headset. The method of noise reduction includes: acquiring a first reference noise signal; acquiring an initial direction of desired speech in response to a trigger signal; acquiring a real-time direction of desired speech based on a real-time orientation of the headset and the initial direction of desired speech, the real-time orientation being obtained by orientation tracking for the headset; filtering out a desired speech signal from the first reference noise signal to acquire an undesired noise signal, the desired speech signal being extracted in the real-time direction of desired speech; and filtering the undesired noise signal to output an inverse noise signal for speaker playback. Thus, using the method of noise reduction, not only the undesired noise in the ambient noise can be cancelled, but also the desired speech signal can be retained.
