Noninvasive blood glucose detector and method using IR
The blood glucose (BG) detector (BGD) stores baseline BG data therein. The BGD has a housing with legs forming a U-shaped sensing channel for a finger web or ear antihelix. The sensory channel limits insertion of the web/antihelix. A positional light sensor subsystem audibly and/or visually indicates a test-to-test detection position. A BG sensor on the legs uses IR 1550 bandwidth light to detect BG by transmission through the web/antihelix ro generate a detected BG signal. A comparator (in processor-memory system) compares detected BG signal to baseline BG data and generates a displayable BG level to the user via a display module. Alternatively, a leg-to-leg distance sensor may be used. A keypad enables upload of the BD baseline data (or an I/O port).
Method for hosting mobile access to high-resolution electroencephalography data
One variation of a method for hosting mobile access to dense electroencephalography data includes: receiving a set of signals, in a raw resolution, recorded by a set of channels in an electroencephalography headset during an electroencephalography test; receiving, from a client computing device, a view parameters for viewing the set of signals on a display; calculating a quantity of raw signal points per pixel column of the display based on the view parameters and a length of a segment of the electroencephalography test; for each signal in the set of signals, for each discrete contiguous sequence of the quantity of raw signal points within the segment of the signal, calculating a value set characterizing the discrete contiguous sequence of the quantity of raw signal points in the signal; and generating a static image representing value sets for each channel, in the set of channels, across the segment of the electroencephalography test.
Blood pressure monitor attachment assembly
