Smart AI powered animal body harness and armour system for real time monitoring of human health and behaviour when within proximity to any support animal or pet
The invention discloses smart Artificial Intelligence powered body harness system for support animals or pets such as a dog and which is capable of real time monitoring of human health, wellbeing, behavior and status of an owner or handler or any of the person of interest within proximity of the equipped support animal or pet. Further, the smart body harness and armor system is capable of monitoring the emotional state and body biometrics and health of the support animals or pet and to transmit in real time the collected data to a centralized monitoring center for AI and human analysis and then reporting on those results to the pet owner and any interested person or organization granted secure access via his/her smartphone or any other network enabled device. The smart body harness system of present invention is comprising of: a flexible body of a harness capable of conforming the body shape of the pet support animals which is further augmented with a network of plurality of electronically connected housings built within the flexible body of harness to support the real time monitoring instruments; each such base stations of the body harness incorporates one or more electronic sensor base plate or mounting platform all of which are networked together as a part of global monitoring network; a plurality of weatherproof, waterproof and shock resistant container having not less than a microcomputer with integrated peripheral devices including but not limited to, a camera, a microphone, a 4G and 5G wireless network components, a Bluetooth module, a Wi-Fi, Battery pack and many more mounted within the base stations of the body harness which acts as a mounting receptacle for the container. Further, each such container has transparent housing for its camera device and each container device is interchangeable with other container device due to the ability of containers to snap-in to the housings via mechanical, magnetic or clip-on mechanisms.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SENSOR-BASED HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT
The system and method for sensor-based healthcare management may provide a patch capable of accepting multiple individual biosensors of a health care professional's choosing for monitoring a patient's condition. A patch may be prepared by attaching the prescribed sensors and then applied to the affected tissue. A reader may receive data transmitted wirelessly from the sensors and forward the data to a remote location through a communications network. The monitoring health care professional at the remote location may then prescribe a patch having a different array of sensors, or prescribe an updated healthcare plan based on the received data.
Analyte monitoring system and methods
Methods and systems for providing data communication in medical systems are disclosed.
Method for Preventing an Infection by a Virus
A method for preventing obesity related to infection by an adipogenic adenovirus includes obtaining a sample from a person, assaying the sample to determine whether the person has been previously infected with an adipogenic adenovirus, and if the person has not been previously infected, providing the person with at least one sensor positioned to detect when a person's hand approaches a predetermined distance from the person's face. By warning the person of undesired hand-to-face contacts, the person is able to reduce the incidence of obesity related infections. Other embodiments are directed to a kit for preventing obesity caused by infection with an adipogenic adenovirus, such kit including a container for assaying an agent indicating the presence of antibodies to Ad-36, and a sensor positioned on an item selected from the group consisting of one of a hat, a writing instrument, eye glasses, a belt, sunglasses, a bra, a shirt, and a tie.
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.
Internet-Linked Ultrasonic Network for Medical Devices
A system and method is provided for transmitting signals ultrasonically among a network of implantable and wearable biological devices. The devices includes one or more implantable nodes, which include a sensing and/or actuating unit, at least one gateway node, and at least one access point node. Ultrasonic signals can be transmitted through the body by the implantable nodes to and from the gateway node, for transmission to and from the access point node. The access point node can be connected to the Internet. In this manner, remote instructions can be transmitted to the implantable nodes and data obtained at the implantable nodes can be transmitted to remote sites.

INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, MEDICAL IMAGING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
An information processing apparatus, comprising at least one processor; and at least one memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the information processing apparatus to: detect a specific illness or injury from a medical image taken from a patient; obtain medical worker information including contact information and an attendance status for at least one medical worker related to the detected illness or injury; and notify the medical worker information along with a detection result of the illness or injury.
Pulse measurement in optical imaging
A light pulse is emitted from a light source for illuminating a medium. Energy level data of the light pulse is measured before the light pulse enters the medium. An image sensor captures an image that includes an interference pattern generated by an exit signal of the light pulse exiting the medium interfering with a reference wavefront. Normalized intensity data is generated by normalizing intensity data exit signal data by the energy level data.
