This accessory has adjustable elasticized straps, used to attach it on various types of containers; it contains a digital tinier encased in a magnifying plastic shell. When the timer shell cover is press down it resets the timer to zero and begins to track elapsed time in minutes, hours and days. This accessory has any number of uses, for example someone taking medication can determine the last time they took their medication, by resetting the timer on the attached accessory, each time they take a dosage. This can lessen the possibility of under or over dosing medication. Another example is on a beverage container, when the product is opened for the first time, the timer on the attached accessory is set to zero and begins to track elapsed time. By tracking its age after opening, it lessens the possibility of someone consuming a product past its recommended useful life.

A process for the acquisition of data of a counting device measuring pulses delivered by a sensor can include reading a first datum value of the counting device. The first datum value corresponds to the pulse emitted by the sensor. The process can also include storing in memory the first datum value as a source value. The process can also include measuring a time-interval between said reading and an incremental change of the first datum value of the counting device to a second datum value. The process can also include obtaining a first adjustment value Vx in response to the measured time interval.

A medicine bottle timer lid. The medicine bottle timer lid includes a housing removably securable to a medicine bottle having a display operably connected to a timer. The housing further includes a battery and a sensor disposed therein. The sensor is configured to detect the position of the housing with respect to the medicine bottle. The timer is configured to begin counting when the housing is secured to the medicine bottle, and the display shows the amount of time that has elapsed since the housing was secured to the medicine bottle. The timer is further configured to reset upon removal of the housing from the medicine bottle. The medicine bottle timer lid allows individuals to automatically keep track of their medication.

A timing device for indicating the passage of a duration of time is disclosed. The timing device and system, in accordance with the embodiments of the invention, comprise an electrochemical component which generates a visual and/or audio indication of the passage of time. The timing device further comprises a compensating element, such as a varistor, a thermistor and/or combinations thereof. The compensating element regulates the response of the device with respect to changes in temperature. The timing device is configured to indicate the passage of a single duration of time or comprises zones that are activated in a range of prescribed times and individually or collectively indicate the passage of time or the passage of a range of times.

A watch terminal includes a memory, at least one of a sensor and a touchscreen configured to receive a touch input from a user. A rim of the touchscreen has a specific shape and a wireless communication unit is configured to pair with at least one of an external terminal. A controller is coupled to the memory, the at least one of the sensor, the touchscreen and the wireless communication unit. The controller controls the wireless communication unit to transmit a control signal to a specific external terminal currently operating in a presentation mode, control the touchscreen to output a counting indicator indicating a current page, control the touchscreen to output a circular progress indicator indicating a progress status of the current page among the total page on a circular rim of the touchscreen, and provide a warning feedback when it exceeds a set target time during the presentation mode.

The present invention relates to an assembly, configured to detect a body on a support, comprising: the support having a body receiving surface configured to receive the body; an array of sensors that is arranged at a distance relative to the body receiving surface of the support and comprising: a plurality of presence detectors; at least one liveliness detector; and a controller configured to detect the presence of a living person based on measurement signals of both the presence detectors and the at least one liveliness detector.

A hands-free visual timer enables a person to wash his or hands for the duration of time recommended by the Center for Disease Control. Upon activation, the timer displays an annular ring of thirty triangles and a first icon. After five seconds have passed, a second icon is displayed indicating the user should apply soap. After twenty-five seconds, a third icon is displayed indicating the user should rinse. After thirty seconds, the screen goes blank and all the triangles have disappeared. The central display of triangles is illuminated by a liquid crystal display. The icons are illuminated by light emitting diodes.

There is described an indicator device for indicating the passage of time, the indicator device comprising an indicator section and a barrier section adjacent thereto, said indicator section comprising: an indicator material; a substrate material; and a first adhesive layer; the indicator material and the substrate material being in the form of one or more layers; the indicator material displaying different visible properties in response to the presence or absence of a chemical agent and/or the concentration thereof; the barrier section comprising a removable barrier layer, the removable barrier layer being substantially impermeable to the chemical agent; wherein on removal of the removable barrier layer, the concentration of the chemical agent in the indicator section changes over time, effecting a visible change. The device may be used to detect the presence/absence of oxygen, water, carbon dioxide, an amine, ammonia, and/or carboxylic acids or to indicate the passage of time.
