Methods and devices for monitoring and changing the physical orientation of an individual are provided. A method includes providing a wearable device that monitors the physical orientation of an individual, monitoring the physical orientation over time using the wearable device, and issuing an alert from the wearable device to change the physical orientation by a prescribed amount when the individual has maintained the physical orientation for a duration exceeding a maximum length. The wearable device is optionally configured to issue subsequent alerts upon determining that the physical orientation has not changed following the duration. The alerts are optionally of varying natures and issued to, for example, the individual, people nearby, and/or caregivers outside the individual's room.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to systems and methods of measuring speed and, more particularly, to systems and methods of measuring gait speed using a plurality of sensors. The systems described herein may include sensing units comprising one or more motion sensors for detecting a patient walking along a testing distance. In some embodiments, a controller may calculate a gait speed based at least in part on the testing distance and on signals received from the sensors. In some embodiments, an initiation input may be provided to activate the systems. In some embodiments, the initiation input may also provide a target to which a patient can walk.

A sensor network for pregnancy monitoring of a subject includes a plurality of sensor systems time-synchronized to each other, each sensor system placed on a respective region of the subject and having a sensor member configured to detect data associated with at least one of physiological parameters of the subject, and a Bluetooth low energy system-on-a-chip configured to process and transmit the detected data; and a controller adapted in wireless communication with the plurality of sensor systems and configured to receive, from the plurality of sensor systems, to process, and to display the physiological parameters.

A micro, single piece, tubeless, cordless, directly inserted oral, nasal or hybrid sleep apnea treatment/anti-snoring device having controlled positive air-flow using a vibrationally isolated micro-blower to maintain an individual's upper airway unobstructed (pharynx area) with or without lower jaw, mandibular advancement is disclosed.

Emotional loneliness is referred as the absence of an attachment figure in one's life and someone to turn to. The existing methods use installation of sensors for tracking the movement, behaviour and activity of the person, but most of the efforts are obtrusive in nature. A non-obtrusive method and system for detection of emotional loneliness of a person have been provided. The disclosure is utilizing multiple varied techniques to understand the emotional loneliness. The multiple techniques comprise room change movement anomalies, living room stay anomalies, correlating the living room stay with the bedroom stay and outdoor movement anomalies. The methodology also ensures reduced variance and false positives, as emotional loneliness is finally determined based on more than two positives of above methods. The detection of person's movement is done using a featured engineered dataset based on collection of raw time series data collected from a plurality of motion sensors.

Methods and systems for temperature screening using a mobile device. In one example, a mobile temperature screening system may comprise a mobile device including a display, a memory, a processor, a thermal imaging camera, a visible light imaging camera, and a wireless communication capability. The processor may be configured to obtain a thermal image of a person and a visible light image of the person, determine a body temperature of the person based at least in part on the thermal image, and classify the person as having a normal body temperature when the body temperature of the person is below a threshold temperature. When the body temperature of the person exceeds the threshold temperature the processor may be configured to classify the person as having an elevated body temperature, generate a visual alert, and transmit the thermal image, the visible light image and the classification to a remote device.

A system for patient activity monitoring may include a wearable device and a personal terminal. The personal terminal may include a processor. The processor of the personal terminal may be configured to receive, from the wearable device, proximity detection information specifying proximity detected by the wearable device between the wearable device and a tag device and sensor data received by the wearable device from the tag device. The processor of the personal terminal may be further configured to determine, based on the proximity detection information and the sensor data, that an action was performed by a patient.

A method and apparatus for monitoring collection of subject condition data is provided. The method includes receiving a value of a parameter of subject condition data and a value of a sample time, for each of a plurality of sample times. The method also includes storing the subject condition data in a data structure including a first field for holding data indicating a current sample time and a second field for holding data indicating the value of the parameter. The method also includes determining a time gap defined by a duration between the current sample time and a most recent sample time and determining whether the time gap exceeds a time gap threshold and causing an apparatus to perform remedial action. A method for presenting the subject condition data on a display is also provided.

An evaluating apparatus of this application includes a detector configured to detect a biological signal of a user, and a controller configured to calculate an amount of activity of the user from the biological signal, determine whether the user is sleeping during a first period by comparing the amount of activity with a low threshold, and determine whether the user is sleeping during a second period after the first period by comparing the amount of activity with a high threshold, the low threshold being lower than the high threshold.
