A smart mirror can show live or recorded streaming video of an instructor performing a workout in a package that is attractive and unobtrusive enough to hang in a living room. The smart mirror includes a mirror surface with a fully reflecting section and a partially reflecting section. A display behind the partially reflecting section shows the video when the smart mirror is on and is almost invisible when the smart mirror is off. The smart mirror also has a speaker, a microphone, and a camera to enable a user to view the video content and interact with the instructor. The smart mirror may connect to the user's smart phone, a peripheral device (e.g., a Bluetooth speaker) to augment user experience, a biometric sensor to provide biometric data to assess user performance, and/or a network router to connect the smart mirror to a content provider, an instructor, and/or other users.

A vehicle includes a processing device that detects an authentication device approaching the vehicle, determines a user's impaired state based on user condition information acquired using at least one device mounted on the vehicle, and performs a safe driving assistance service. The safe driving assistance service can prevent an impaired user from operating the vehicle.

Disclosed are methods and medical device systems for automated delivery of therapies for pain and determination of need for and safety of treatment. In one embodiment, such a medical device system may comprise a sensor configured to sense at least one body signal from a patient; and a medical device configured to receive a first sensed body signal from the sensor; determine a patient pain index based at least in part on said first sensed body signal; determine whether said patient pain index is above at least a first pain index threshold; determine a safety index based at least in part on a second sensed body signal; select a pain treatment regimen based on at least one of said safety index and or a determination that said pain index is above said first pain index threshold; and deliver said pain treatment regimen.

An apparatus for estimating bio-information, includes a sensor including a cover having a transmitting area provided at a center of the cover, and non-transmitting areas provided at both edges of the cover, a light source configured to emit light onto an object that is in contact with the cover, and a detector configured to detect a first optical signal of the emitted light that is scattered or reflected from the object after passing through the transmitting area, and a second optical signal of the emitted light that is reflected from the non-transmitting areas. The apparatus further includes a processor configured to estimate bio-information, based on the detected first optical signal and the detected second optical signal.

The present disclosure, in one embodiment, is a computer-implemented method for the detection of and intervention in traumatic nightmares. In one embodiment, a user wears a watch wirelessly connected to a phone. The watch may include an accelerometer, gyroscope, and heartrate monitor. The application may monitor these sensors and intervene with haptic feedback if the application detects a traumatic nightmare. In one embodiment, the application may include a monitoring module that collects data from the watch's accelerometer, gyroscope, and heartrate sensors. The application may then estimate and record stress levels based on these sensors. The application may also include an intervention module that responds to high stress levels with haptic feedback that increases in intensity of previous efforts to intervene were unsuccessful.

The present disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for inducing a desired biological response in an organism through the use of one or more repetitive signals from one or a series of LED lights designed to emit the signal with multiple pulsed components. Each component of the signal contains a one or more light color spectrum or wavelength that is within 50 nm of the peak absorption of a photon receptor of the organism corresponding to the desired biological response. Each component has a repetitive ON duration with an OFF duration and an intensity where the relationship between the ON duration and OFF duration of the first component and the second component induces the desired response in the organism through the stimulation or excitation of a molecule associated with a photoreceptor and the reset of the molecule.

Devices and methods for monitoring physiologic parameters are described where an airway device, in one embodiment, may comprise a mouthpiece section and an opening section defining one or more airway lumens therethrough with a first sensor in fluid communication with the one or more airway lumens and a second sensor positioned upon a hand-piece for contact against a portion of the user. The first sensor may be configured to detect an airway pressure when a user inhales or exhales through the one or more airway lumens, and the second sensor may be configured to detect a physiological signal from the user. Additionally, a controller may be in communication with the first and second sensors where the controller is programmed to correlate pressure oscillations in the airway pressure with heartbeats.

A bed-leaving prediction device (server device) (10) is connected through a digital communication network (60) to: a portable information processing terminal (40) of care staff; environmental sensors (32 to 34) for detecting environment values such as temperature in a room; a human sensor (31); and a bed sensor (35). A bed-leaving prediction processing section (115) calculates a bed-leaving prediction value indicative of a degree of possibility that a care recipient leaves a sleeping furniture after a second time interval has expired since a current time point based on a plurality of environment values detected in a time period between the current time point and a time point before expiration of a first time interval, outputs of the human sensor, and outputs of the bed sensor. A bed-leaving notification processing section (117) compares the bed-leaving prediction value with a threshold value, and transmits, to the portable information processing terminal, a bed-leaving notification indicating that the care recipient leaves the sleeping furniture after the second time interval expires when the bed-leaving prediction value exceeds the threshold value.

In one embodiment, a health-monitoring system may access a waist-hip measurement of a user. The system may determine one or more stress-related parameters of the user using one or more computing devices. The system may determine one or more correlations between the waist-hip measurement and the one or more stress-related parameters of the user. The system may provide feedback to the user based on one or more of the one or more stress-related parameters or the determined correlations between the waist-hip measurement and the one or more stress-related parameters.
