A method can include attaching a sensor device contained in a sensor structure to a body; sensing motion of the body with at least one motion capacitive sensor of the sensor device that senses a capacitance change resulting from a difference in orientation of the motion capacitive sensor and a surface of the body. If motion of the body is not sensed with the motion capacitive sensor, sensor readings can be acquired with a biophysical sensor that emits signals into a portion of the body below the sensor structure, and generate data for a feature of the body with the sensor readings. If motion of the body is not sensed with the motion capacitive sensor, data for the feature of the body is not generated. Related devices and systems are also disclosed.

A device of an embodiment includes: an optical mechanism; a control computation unit that controls driving of the optical mechanism, acquires a tomographic image of skin by processing an optical interference signal from an optical system, and calculates a network of blood vessels on the basis of the tomographic image; and a display device that displays an image of the network of blood vessels. The control computation unit sets a reference profile obtained by function approximation of an intensity profile in a depth direction of the acquired tomographic image, calculates a difference between an intensity value on the reference profile and an actual intensity value as an outlier V, the intensity values being those in the depth direction in the tomographic image, determines, as blood vessels or blood vessel candidates, coordinates with the outliers V within a predetermined blood vessel determination range, and calculates the network of blood vessels.

The invention relates to a method for determining kinetosis in a vehicle user of a vehicle during at least one travel event in which at least one body part of the vehicle user is monitored, as a result of which image data are generated.

A device and system for non-invasively measuring wavelength-dependent changes in optical absorption of brain tissue damaged by CTE, TBI, concussion, repetitive trauma, and/or Lou Gehrig's disease in comparison to signals from healthy normal tissue for a subject in vivo. The brain, tissues, and fluids superficial to the brain are trans-cranially illuminated by light source(s) in low-absorption spectral windows for tissue in the visible and/or near-infrared parts of the spectrum. Optode(s) are disposed at predetermined radial distance(s) from a light output to collect the scattered and/or deflected signal from the surface of the head. The predetermined radial distance from the light output to the optode is correlated with the depth of tissue penetration for the light collected by the optode. A spectrometer and computer analyze the collected light for characteristic optical signatures of the brain tissue damage utilizing the absorbance and/or reflectance and/or transmission spectra generated as a result.

Described herein is a method of controlled exposure of ultraviolet (UV) rays to a user, with use of a UV exposure system comprising a camera unit, a UV source, and a microcontroller. The method includes capturing an image of the user; performing face recognition on the captured image to identify a user profile; obtaining information on dosage value delivered to the user in a defined amount of dosage time period; comparing the dosage value with a threshold value; and performing an action on the UV source based on the comparison. The action includes: activating the UV source if the dosage value is below the threshold value; and deactivating the UV source, if the dosage value is above the threshold value.
