A robot body care system according to the present disclosure includes: a body care device which performs body care by applying physical stimulation to a user; and an information processing server including a reception unit that receives, from the outside as treatment information, a treatment method indicating a way of applying stimulation to the portions of the body of the user when body care is performed on the user, a command value generation unit that generates treatment command values as electrical signals on the basis of the treatment information entered into the reception unit, and a transmission unit that transmits the treatment command values to the body care device.

A haptic device is disclosed comprising at least one fluidic actuator operatively connectable with pumping means; and a plurality of movable members mechanically connected with said at least one fluidic actuator, wherein said movable members can perform a displacement upon actuation of the fluidic actuator and/or resist the movements of a body part of a user upon actuation of the fluidic actuator, to provide a tactile and/or force haptic sensation to a body part of a user. Methods for providing a haptic sensation to a user and receiving haptic input commands from a user are also disclosed.

A wearable ultrasound device and method of using the device includes a power controller with a power source and at least one integrated circuit that delivers electrical power to an applicator. The applicator is electrically coupled to the power controller and a surface of the applicator transmits ultrasound to a wearer for a given duration. The applicator includes radio frequency (RF) drive electronics, an ultrasound transducer coupled to the drive electronics, a monitoring apparatus that includes a thermal cutoff coupled to the drive electronics, where the monitoring apparatus monitors a temperature of the applicator surface and the thermal cutoff turns off the applicator, if the temperature exceeds a pre-defined threshold, and a coupling bandage coupled to the applicator, where the bandage positions the surface of the applicator proximate to a wearer at a location on the body of a wearer.

Systems and methods are operable to control presentation of an erotica-related media content event. An exemplary embodiment is a media device that receives information from a user sensor that is configured to sense a physical characteristic of a user viewing the erotica-related media content event, and automatically changes presentation of the erotica-related media content event based on the received information corresponding to the sensed physical characteristic of the viewing user.

A percussive therapy system includes a percussive therapy device that includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, and an attachment configured to be operatively connected to a distal end of the push rod assembly of the percussive massage device and to provide at least one therapeutic effect to a user. The attachment may include at least one of an actuator configured to provide the at least one therapeutic effect to the user and a sensor configured to obtain at least one of biometric data of the user and information regarding operation of the percussive therapy device.

A feedback device for an acute care provider includes: at least one motion sensor; a haptic output component for providing feedback having a varying haptic pattern to the acute care provider regarding performance of a resuscitation activity; and a controller. The controller can be configured to receive and process a signal representative of performance of the resuscitation activity from the at least one motion sensor, compare the acute care provider's performance of the resuscitation activity to a target performance of the resuscitation activity, and cause the haptic output component to provide haptic feedback to the acute care provider by changing the haptic pattern based, at least in part, on the signal from the at least one motion sensor and the comparison of the acute care provider's performance to the target performance of the resuscitation activity. The device can be adapted to be wrist-worn by the acute care provider.

Processing generated sensor data of a mobile deep vein thrombosis (DVT) device may include identifying use of the mobile DVT device corresponding to a user. Sensor data associated with the user's identified use of the mobile DVT device may be generated. At least some of the generated sensor data may comprise use data associated with a duration of use of the mobile DVT device by the user. A protocol associated with use of the mobile DVT device may be processed. The generated use data and the protocol associated with use of the mobile DVT device may be correlated. Based on correlating the generated use data and the protocol, an alert associated with the generated use data and the protocol may be generated.

A multi-direction operable massage chair includes a seat positioning device; a seat sensor of a limit member; a neck massaging device; a shoulder massaging device, and an arm massaging device together configured to move along a main rail in the y-axis direction; a back massaging device; a leg positioning device; a vibrational massaging seat including an adjustment member and two adjustment cylinders; a plurality of roller members configured to roll in different directions; first, second, third, and fourth infrared temperature sensors configured to sense temperatures of the arms, the neck, the back, and the legs of the user respectively; a board adjustment member of the leg massaging device configured to extend or retract; a board of the leg massaging device configured to rotate; and a pivotal armrest link.

Methods for treating fluid overload in a subject comprise shifting fluids directly and non-invasively from an interstitial compartment of the subject to skin of the subject through controlled local sweating. Methods of the invention allow for removal of excess fluid from the interstitial compartment of the subject and treat fluid overload in the subject. Sweat stimulation systems comprise a chamber and first and second relative humidity sensors. The chamber is sized to fit around a body part of a subject, comprises an inlet and an outlet, and is configured such that air flows through the chamber from the inlet to the outlet. The first relative humidity sensor is operably located inside the inlet, and the second relative humidity sensor is operably located proximate the outlet.
