A detected signal of a heartbeat sensor and a detected signal of an inertial sensor are received by a processor. The processor estimates a heart rate in a case where an exercise intensity obtain from the detected signal of the inertial sensor is equal to or more than a threshold value, based on a relation between the exercise intensity and a heart rate obtained from the detected signal of the heartbeat sensor during a period in which the exercise intensity obtained from the detected signal of the inertial sensor is less than the threshold value.

Methods, devices, and systems for contactless cough detection and attribution are presented herein. Audio data may be received using a microphone. A cough may be identified as having occurred based on the received audio data. Radar data may be received indicative of reflected radio waves from a radar sensor. A state analysis process may be performed using the received radar data. The detected cough may be attributed to a particular user based at least in part on the state analysis process performed using the radar data.

A novel medical imaging system that is based on radio-wave signals at microwave frequencies and has unique properties. The system can be used for various diagnostic applications such as breast cancer detection, brain stroke detection, and assessment of internal bleeding (trauma emergencies).

Methods and systems are provided herein for analyzing, monitoring, and/or influencing a user's behavioral gesture in real-time. A gesture recognition method may be provided. The method may comprise: obtaining sensor data collected using at least one sensor located on a wearable device, wherein said wearable device is configured to be worn by a user; and analyzing the sensor data to determine a probability of the user performing a predefined gesture, wherein the probability is determined based in part on a magnitude of a motion vector in the sensor data, and without comparing the motion vector to one or more physical motion profiles.

Provided herein are systems, methods and apparatuses for a Biomarker sensor.
