20230403516 · 2023-12-14 ·

A hearing device comprises a processor operatively coupled to memory, a speaker or a receiver, and one or both of a microphone arrangement and a telecoil arrangement. A sensor is operatively coupled to the processor and configured to sense an angular position of the device relative to a horizontal plane oriented orthogonal to a direction of gravity. The processor is configured to detect a change in the angular position of the device from a first angular position to a second angular position, the first angular position corresponding to a specified angular position that provides for a target or optimal level of device performance and the second angular position resulting in suboptimal device performance. The processor is also configured to implement a corrective action that improves performance of the device relative to the suboptimal device performance while operating the device at the second angular position.

INFORMATION NOTIFICATION SYSTEM AND INFORMATION NOTIFICATION METHOD

An information notification system includes apparatuses and first server. The apparatuses include a first device. Each of at least one of the apparatuses includes a sensor unit that senses whether any person is present and generates a presence-absence signal including person presence-absence information. A first device includes a generator that generates a notification signal including notification information that is to be provided to the user. A first server includes an information acquirer that acquires the person presence-absence information, and a presentation controller that determines a presumed position and causes a second device to present the notification information, and the second device being one of one or more apparatuses that are capable of presenting the notification information to the person who is in the presumed position among the apparatuses. A presentation controller changes a form of presentation in accordance with presentation setting information that is information about the person.

A beverage vessel having an upper opening and a closure element with a locking mechanism and an actuation element, a light distribution element arranged at the closure element, and a light emitter positioned such that the light emitted by the light emitter passes at least a part of the volume of the beverage container before entering the light distribution element. The light emitter may display information relating to the beverage including temperature and fill level. The beverage vessel may be utilized in a method of monitoring a beverage consumption and a consumption of minerals.

PISTON ASSEMBLY INCLUDING LEAK DETECTION IN A DIALYSIS MACHINE
20210138140 · 2021-05-13 ·

Dialysis systems and methods for operating dialysis machines (e.g., peritoneal dialysis machines) for conducting dialysis treatments are disclosed. The dialysis system may include a dialysis machine for transferring dialysate to a patient from a dialysate source. The dialysate may flow from the dialysate source through a cartridge or cassette (e.g., a disposable cartridge or cassette) positionable within the dialysis machine. The dialysis machine includes a piston for pumping fluid (e.g., dialysate) from the cassette to the patient. In various embodiments, during use, the piston is arranged and configured to contact, compress, etc. a membrane defining one or more fluid chambers in the cassette. In one embodiment, the piston includes a sensor for detecting a leak at the interface between the piston and the membrane. The sensor may be a capacitive sensor.

Egress controller, egress control system and mobile communication terminal

An evacuation controller, an evacuation control system, and a mobile communication terminal. The evacuation controller includes: a local control unit capable of storing or acquiring evacuation path information to or from a cloud via a mobile communication terminal, wherein the evacuation path information is configured at least based on a layout of a building and a location of a danger occurred in the building. According to the evacuation controller and the evacuation control system, exchange of evacuation path information between the local control unit and a remote provider service system is realized through exchange between the mobile communication terminal and the cloud; or by configuring evacuation path information directly in the local control unit, the local control unit can clearly and timely learn about the local evacuation path information and can evacuate people based on the local evacuation path information.

FALL DETECTION - AUDIO LOOPING

Techniques are provided for contacting emergency response services when certain conditions are met. In some instances, it may be determined, by a wearable device, whether a user has responded to a first user interface prompt displayed in response to detection of a physical event associated with the user. In accordance with a determination that the user has not responded to the first user interface prompt after expiration of a first time period, certain actions may be performed. For example, a countdown timer may begin to run for a second timer period. During the second period, an audio alert and a haptic alert may be output by the wearable device. In accordance with a determination that the user has not responded to a second user interface prompt prior to expiration of the second time period, a communication channel request may be transmitted to an emergency response service by the wearable device.
