A method and system for non-invasive detection of a living subject's blood oxygen saturation is disclosed herein. A system, method, and apparatus utilizes an imaging RGB/infrared sensor and an active two-color light source for detecting blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) of a living subject in a non-contact manner. The system comprises a non-contact light source comprising red light or infrared light; an imaging sensor; a processor; and a user interface.

A photoplethysmography (PPG) device includes an equipment module which includes a photodetector and first and second light emitting diodes (LED's) adapted to emit light of first and second wavelengths, respectively. The PPG device also includes a mask covering the patient facing extremity of the equipment module so that when the device is applied to a patient the mask is situated between the patient and the patient facing extremity. A processor is adapted to control drive current and/or operating time of the second LED to achieve an elevated localized body tissue temperature of a patient to which the PPG device is applied.

A method for controlling a scanner comprises: sensing an outer surface of a body of a subject to collect body surface data, using machine learning to predict a surface of an internal organ of the subject based on the body surface data, and controlling the scanner based on the predicted surface of the internal organ.

A system for characterizing tissue includes a probe that delivers a continuous and periodic mechanical vibration to a tissue of a subject; an ultrasound emitter that emits a sequence of ultrasound shots and an ultrasound receiver that receives corresponding echo signals to track how the tissue is moved by the periodic mechanical vibration delivered to the tissue; and a control module programmed to provide homogeneity information to an operator of the system, the homogeneity information being determined from at least some of the echo signals and being representative of the ability of the tissue to transmit elastic waves and of the homogeneity of the tissue with respect to the propagation of elastic waves.

The invention relates to a processing unit, a system, and a computer-implemented method for a vehicle interior, for detecting and reacting to odors of a vehicle occupant.

The present invention provides a system for personalized skin health and/or appearance regimen supported with a device that comprises a mirror-based digital interface apparatus, directly from the device to one's account. In some embodiments, the device utilizes built-in virtual trainers/beauticians to give realtime personalized suggestions, product recommendations, based on the user's preference. The trainer/beautician can provide information through text on the screen or use audio. In some embodiments, it can display personalities, influencers, skin health experts who suggest skin workout regiment and them using the mirror-based digital interface. In some embodiments, realtime questions can be asked and answered with a data library integrated within the device and online database.

Scanning a person’s skin allows one to more easily find products that match their skin tone and skin condition. A skin scan can assist one to determine what products are appropriate for them and then purchase them from a retailer. A scanning device is used to scan one or more locations of a person’s skin. For example, two different locations of a person’s face can be scanned, such as the forehead and cheek. An additional third scan may be near the person’s eyes. The scan determines skin tone and skin condition results for the person’s skin. These results can be used to determine and present a listing of products that are appropriate for the person’s skin tone and skin condition.

A body composition analysis system having image scanning function includes an image capturing device, a body composition analyzer having a stand platform with two first electrode sets, two handrails and a calculating unit electrically connected with the image capturing device, and a control panel. Each handrail has a telescopic rod and a handle having a second electrode set. An end of each telescopic rod is pivotably attached to the stand platform. Each handle is disposed at another end of each telescopic rod. The calculating unit includes a body shape module database and a calculational logic, receives resistance and reactance measured by the first and second electrode sets and image data obtained by the image capturing device, and after comparing the image data with the body shape module database, calculates by the calculational logic to obtain a body composition data to be shown on the control panel.

The construction of a medical device having a disposable element is disclosed. Detachable elements comprising a body having a retention feature, an electrical contactor, and sensors are also disclosed. Further disclosed are detachable elements comprising a body having a hole and a retention pocket, an electrical contactor, and a printed circuit board assembly (PCB) in contact with the innermost surface of the body that forms the retention pocket. Further disclosed are detachable elements comprising a body having an opening and a printed film comprising conductive elements, where the conductive elements comprise a sensor configured to be aligned with the opening to expose the sensor. Further disclosed are reusable components having matching retention features.

A footwear apparatus, comprising receptacles, having a mechanism that automatically removes and replaces interchangeable sole footwear parts; an automatic complete new sole dispenser; an automatic new sole heel dispenser; a complete old sole recycling automatic ejection component; an old sole heel dispenser automatic ejection component; a computer-implemented method for serving footwear and footwear soles to consumers from a vending machine; a computer-implemented foot scanning device, wherein said apparatus is comprised of a configuration to automatically replace the sole or partial sole of a pair or pairs of footwear.
