A method for managing sleep of a user comprises obtaining, by a computing system, sleep data and environmental data for the user; determining, by the computing system, a sleep state of the user based on the sleep data; determining, by the computing system, one or more awakening actions based on the sleep state of the user and the environmental data; and causing one or more devices in an environment of the user to perform the one or more awakening actions to awaken the user.

A method and system for indicating a breathing pattern is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of smart wearable devices, a plurality of mobile devices, an application server and a database. The plurality of smart wearable devices is either connected to the mobile devices or directly connected to the application server. The database is connected to the application server to store the data transmitted by the smart wearable device or the mobile device. The plurality of smart wearable devices is capable of monitoring the health index and identifying the variation in health conditions of the user, in real-time and activating a suitable breathing pattern to normalize such medical condition.

Introduced are methods and systems for: gathering human biological signals, such as heart rate, respiration rate, or temperature; analyzing the gathered human biological signals; and controlling a vibrating pillow strip based on the analysis.

An apparatus for energy expenditure estimation includes a heart rate sensor for producing a heart rate value indicative of a heart rate of an individual, a heat-flux sensor for producing a heat-flux value indicative of a heat-flux flowing through a measurement area on the skin of the individual, and a processing system communicatively connected to the heart rate sensor and the heat-flux sensor. The processing system is configured to produce an estimate of the energy expenditure based on the heart rate value and the heat-flux value. The use of the heat-flux value improves the accuracy of the estimation especially during low-intensity exercise and rest, when both heart rate and acceleration values often fail to provide information meaningful enough for energy expenditure estimation.

Provided is a sensor device-equipped golf shoes comprising: golf shoes including a left and right pair of a first shoe and a second shoe to be worn by a golfer; and a sensor device attached to the golf shoes. The sensor device includes one or more sensor modules configured to measure sensor data pertaining to at least one of an orientation of the first shoe when the golfer takes a shot, an orientation of the second shoe when the golfer takes a shot, and a positional relationship between the first shoe and the second shoe when the golfer takes a shot.

Embodiments relate to a non-invasive electronic device including at least one sensing unit capable of accurately monitoring a user's health condition for a long time such as a few weeks without malfunction while it is worn on the wearer's skin in a non-invasive manner and a method for fabricating the non-invasive electronic device. The non-invasive electronic device includes for example, a skin sensor device.

A healthcare device for asthmatic patients that can help in reducing and avoiding risk factors that can trigger one or more symptoms of asthma. The healthcare device includes an infrared sensor, a pulse oximeter sensor, a UV sensor, an atmospheric sensor, and an air quality sensor for measuring values of different risk factors including ambient temperature, body temperature, blood oxygen saturation level, heart rate, intensity of ultraviolet radiations, humidity level, altitude, CO2 levels, and total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs).

Methods systems and apparatus are set forth herein. There is provided in one embodiment determining one or more body physiological parameter of a patient based on one or more input; and controlling a heating system for warming the patient based on a result of the determining.

In an example method, a mobile device obtains sample data generated by one or more sensors over a period of time, where the one or more sensors are worn by a user. The mobile device determines that the user has fallen based on the sample data, and determines, based on the sample data, a severity of an injury suffered by the user. The mobile device generates one or more notifications based on the determination that the user has fallen and the determined severity of the injury.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, apparatuses and methods for synchronous communication and control of LED lights and sensors in an LED light array containing two or more LED lights. Through the use of a master clock within a gateway and/or a master controller that is in communication with LED lights in an array that is in a facility, such as in a greenhouse, hot house, poultry egg production facility, a hospital, dairy production or other lighting facilities, the gateway and/or master controller is capable of synchronizing the emission of light or photons from an LED light array by generating a master signal that contains commands and time from a master clock within the signal that is transmitted to each of the LED lights within an array.
