SMART CUP AND PSYCHOLOGICAL HEALTH MONITORING SYSTEM USING SAME
A psychological health monitoring system according to an embodiment of the present disclosures includes a smart cup and a terminal. In the psychological health monitoring system, a user's biometric information is collected through a plurality of biosensors, and the user's current state is analyzed and determined on the basis of the collected biometric information, so as to display the user's psychological health/intoxication state through light or sound, so the user can check a psychological health/intoxication state depending on a beverage the user drinks and then correct drinking habits according to the psychological health/intoxication state to maintain good health.
Collection of medical data
A system and method for assessing a patient's balancing ability in order to facilitate ascertaining the patient's current medical status. The system includes a balance plate for measuring the meter of gravity dynamic weight distribution in combination with a sensor for measuring the patient's fine motor skills.
Contextual route navigation systems
A method, system, and computer-readable medium are provided to transmit, via a wireless network from an on-board diagnostic interface coupled to a diagnostic port of a vehicle, telematics data collected during the vehicle's operation; transmit, via the wireless network from a monitoring device, physiological data obtained for the vehicle's operator at corresponding points in time during the vehicle's operation; determine multiple roadway locations of the vehicle at the corresponding points in time, using the telematics data; determine a physiological state of the operator at each of the multiple roadway locations at the corresponding points in time, using the physiological data; determine, using the physiological states, a stress level profile associated with the operator for each travel route to a destination and including the multiple roadway locations, and send, to the operator, a recommendation identifying travel routes based on the associated stress level profiles.
DEVICE FOR QUANTIFYING DEXTERITY
The invention concerns a device for quantifying the dexterity of the fingers of a hand, comprising a main body, several systems for measuring the movement and/or the force applied by a finger in a pressure direction, each system for measuring comprising a sensor for deformation, the sensor for deformation comprising a deformable body, characterized in that each system for measuring also comprises a guide bearing, integral with the main body, a shaft having a bearing surface, the bearing surface being in contact with the deformable body, a tube, adapted to slide in translation in the guide bearing and around the shaft in the pressure direction, having a head adapted to fix the finger to the tube, a first spring connecting the bearing to the tube, a second spring connecting the shaft to the tube, the first spring and the second spring being pre-tensioned, so as to pre-tension the deformable body.
Cognitive function evaluation device, cognitive function evaluation system, cognitive function evaluation method, and recording medium
A cognitive function evaluation device includes: an obtainment unit configured to obtain, as gait data, at least one of first data and second data, the first data indicating a sway amount of a body of a subject during walking in a first walking section from start of walking of the subject to a predetermined number of steps, and the second data indicating a sway amount of the body of the subject during walking in a second walking section in a double task state in which the subject is walking while doing a given assignment, the second walking section being after the first walking section; a calculation unit configured to calculate a feature value based on the gait data; an evaluation unit configured to evaluate a cognitive function of the subject, based on the feature value; and an output unit configured to output a result of evaluation by the evaluation unit.
METHOD OF EVALUATING AGING LEVEL OF A HUMAN THROUGH MEASURING VASCULAR STRUGGLE IN AN AGING HUMAN TISSUE
The present invention provides a method of evaluating vascular struggle in an aging human tissue and aging level during muscle exertion. The method includes the steps of: placing an optical detector on the person's brain while the person sits in a chair and place a hand on a table; asking the person to relax until a stable baseline is established by the optical sensor; turning on a pacer during a 30-second rest phase before asking the person to perform a handgrip test; asking the person to grip at maximal effort every three seconds during a 30-second grip phase while a total of 10 grips are performed and corresponding brain oxygenation and hemoglobin fluctuations are captured; asking the person to relax for a recovery phase while brain oxygenation and hemoglobin fluctuations are continued being captured for 30 seconds; repeating the entire procedure with a three-minute interval; transforming captured data into variability to reflect the amplitude of oxygenation and hemodynamic fluctuation; and evaluating the aging level of the person with greater fluctuation in hemodynamic variability corresponds to greater aging.
Pen
A pen comprising a shaft, a gripping zone, and a measuring device having a sensor configured to measure a force acting on the gripping zone. The pen further comprises a cover in the area of the gripping zone, the cover configured to cover the measuring device.
MEASURING SYSTEM FOR MEASURING THE HAND/EYE REACTION ABILITY
The invention relates to a measuring system for reproducibly measuring reaction time curves in the case of a complex neurocognitive task. For this purpose, human influences are largely prevented when carrying out the experiment. As a result of external data processing, the measuring system is able to form an independently growing and anonymous data basis which increases in accuracy due to the continuously increasing amount of data therein. This also allows statements to be made about potentially dangerous changes in reaction times up to the indication and/or identification of neurodegenerative diseases.
Direction control apparatus with sensor, and method and system for determining driver status using the same
A direction control apparatus with a sensor, a method for determining a driver status using the driving control apparatus, and a system for determining the driver status are provided. The direction control apparatus includes at least a pressure sensor to sense a plurality of pressure values applied to multiple positions of the direction control apparatus. When the pressure values are received by a controller of the apparatus, the driver status can be determined according to a change of pressure values over time, or further a change of the positions where pressure is applied. The system can connect with an autopilot system and an alarm system of a vehicle via the controller. Therefore, the system incorporates an autopilot system and issues an alarm when the driver status is determined to be abnormal.
MYOELECTRIC WEARABLE SYSTEM FOR FINGER MOVEMENT RECOGNITION
A user-wearable system for communicating with a computer system includes a hand wearable device, a sensor array on the hand wearable device and configured to capture myoelectric signals from the user's hand and a means for converting the myoelectric signals into computer-readable signals corresponding to a computer instruction executed by the computer system.
