A61B5/0026
Hands-free interface
A wearable device and external reader is provided for herein. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the wearable device or the reader is configured to receive a level of radiant energy, detect a change in the received level of radiant energy, determine that the detected change in the received level of radiant energy is indicative of a predetermined pattern of received radiant energy, and responsively operate (or cause to be operated via the external reader) one or more external devices.
Pregnancy belt
The present disclosure relates generally to the field of pregnancy devices. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a wearable apparatus that alerts an expecting mother of unsafe lying or sleeping positions. An exemplary wearable apparatus consistent with the present disclosure comprises an adjustable belt member having an elongated axis of sufficient length to cover the girth of an expecting mother during the entire term of her pregnancy. Further, an attachment coupled to the wearable apparatus is present to secure the alarm belt to the expecting mother. In addition, sensors coupled to the wearable apparatus detect when the expecting mother is lying or sleeping in a supine position in which the sensors send signals to an external alarm. Furthermore, a power source may be coupled to the sensors to provide power thereto.
REMOTE MONITORING OF ANALYTE MEASUREMENTS
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for remote monitoring. In some example implementations, there is provided a method. The method may include receiving, at a remote monitor, a notification message representative of an event detected, by a server, from analyte sensor data obtained from a receiver monitoring an analyte state of a host; presenting, at the remote monitor, the notification message to activate the remote monitor, wherein the remote monitor is configured by the server to receive the notification message to augment the receiver monitoring of the analyte state of the host; accessing, by the remote monitor, the server, in response to the presenting of the notification message; and receiving, in response to the accessing, information including at least the analyte sensor data. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also disclosed.
WEARABLE BIOSENSOR DEVICES WITH ADAPTIVE POWER CONSUMPTION
One disclosed example method includes receiving sensor data from a biosensor; determining an event using a first analysis based on the sensor data, the first analysis having a first power cost; determining to perform a second analysis based on the event; in response to determining to perform the second analysis, performing the second analysis based on the sensor data, the second analysis having a second power cost greater than the first power cost; and wirelessly transmitting results of the second analysis to a remote device.
Methods and systems for providing calibration point acceptance criteria for calibrating an analyte sensor
A method and transceiver for calibrating an analyte sensor using one or more reference measurements. In some embodiments, the method may include receiving a first reference analyte measurement (RM1) and determining whether the RM1 is unexpected. In some embodiments, the method may include, if the RM1 was determined to be unexpected, receiving a second reference analyte measurement (RM2). In some embodiments, the method may include determining whether one or more of the RM1 and the RM2 are acceptable as calibration points. In some embodiments, the method may include, if one or more of the RM1 and the RM2 are determined to be acceptable as calibration points, accepting one or more of the RM1 and the RM2 as calibration points. In some embodiments, the method may include calibrating the analyte sensor using at least one or more of the RM1 and the RM2 as calibration points.
Eyewear with proximity sensors
An eyewear device that includes a frame and two arms extending distally from the frame with at least one processor included on the frame or the arms and at least two proximity sensors disposed within the frame or arms in a directional manner. The proximity sensors include an infrared signal receiver to receive an infrared emission. The processors execute an operation to warn a person wearing the eyeglasses by emitting a signal selected from a sound, light or vibration when the proximity sensor detects an infrared emission.
Transmission apparatus for transmitting brain parameter sensor data
A transmission apparatus for the transmission of brain parameter sensor data includes, a receiving unit with an antenna, which can be wirelessly connected to a transmitting unit of a brain parameter sensor for data transmission, a data processing device which is in signaling connection to the receiving unit, a high frequency source for generating a data transmission carrier frequency, wherein the high frequency source is integrated in a housing of the data processing device. The result is a transmission apparatus which is designed for use in a domestic patient environment.
Systems and methods for wirelessly powering or communicating with sterile-packed devices
Systems and methods are disclosed herein that can allow for wirelessly powering and/or communicating with a sterile-packed electronic device without removing the electronic device from its sterile packaging and while maintaining the sterility of the electronic device. In some embodiments, a base station with a power transmitter wirelessly transfers power to a power receiver of the electronic device, for example using inductive, capacitive, or ultrasonic coupling. The base station or another external device can also be used to wirelessly program or interrogate the electronic device. Battery charging circuits and switching circuits for use with said systems and methods are also disclosed.
BIOMETRIC INFORMATION MEASUREMENT DEVICE, TERMINAL, AND BIOMETRIC INFORMATION MEASUREMENT SYSTEM
The present invention provides a biometric information measurement device that communicates with an external terminal by ultrasonic waves, including: a communicator for communicating information including measurement information with the external terminal; and a light projector for visualizing information on a place where the external terminal is to be placed by irradiating light.
Systems, devices, and methods for wireless communications in analyte monitoring systems
Systems, devices and methods are provided that allow for enhanced performance, power efficiency, interoperability, data security and user privacy for in vivo analyte monitoring systems that utilize wireless communications. The in vivo analyte monitoring systems can include a Bluetooth or Bluetooth Low Energy enabled handheld relay device for wirelessly relaying analyte data between a sensor unit device and one or more reader devices. The in vivo analyte monitoring systems can employ advertisement and encryption schemes for wirelessly transmitting data in a manner that allows for improved security, efficiency and privacy.
