20170308118 · 2017-10-26 ·

A wearable device can be attached to a particular bodily part of a user. For example, the wearable device can be strapped to one upper limb from among the left and right upper limbs of the user. The wearable device includes a display configured to display images; a muscle activity detector coming in contact with the concerned upper limb, the muscle activity detector configured to detect muscle activity of the concerned upper limb; and a controller configured to detect a bodily motion of the concerned upper limb based on the detected muscle activity, and configured to make the display to perform a predetermined display operation in response to the bodily motion.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ASSISTIVE GAIT INTERVENTION AND FALL PREVENTION

Described is a system for system for gait intervention and fall prevention. The system is incorporated into a body suit having a plurality of distributed sensors and a vestibulo-muscular biostim array. The sensors are operable for providing biosensor data to the analytics module, while the vestibulo-muscular biostim array includes a plurality of distributed effectors. The analytics module is connected with the body suit and sensors and is operable for receiving biosensor data and analyzing a particular user's gait and predicting falls. Finally, a closed-loop biostim control module is included for activating the vestibulo-muscular biostim array to compensate for a risk of a predicted fall.

DYNAMIC TARGET RATE FOR GUIDED BREATHING

Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for dynamically adjusting a breathing entrainment based on whether a user is stressing or relaxing. According to an aspect, a first target breathing period is selected, and a guiding stimulus configured to alter a current breathing period of the user towards the first target breathing period over an interval of time is output. One or more relaxation biometrics are measured and analyzed to determine whether the user is stressing or relaxing. Based on whether the user is relaxing or stressing, at least one of the guided stimulus and the first target breathing period are adjusted, where the first target breathing period is adjusted to a second target breathing period different from the first target breathing period. By making adjustments based on whether a user is relaxing or stressing, the breathing entrainment is more effective and comfortable for users.

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a fall-off detection method for a wearable device and a wearable device. The method includes collecting physiological parameter information and activity information of a wearer of the wearable device; when an abnormality is detected in the physiological parameter information of the wearer of the wearable device and a time of the abnormality exceeds a preset time, determining that the wearable device falls off from the wearer; when it is determined that the wearable device falls off from the wearer, determining, according to the collected physiological parameter information and activity information of the wearer of the wearable device, a scenario mode that the wearer is in; and sending, according to the scenario mode that the wearer is in, an indication corresponding to the scenario mode.

Smart eye system for Visuomotor dysfunction diagnosis and its operant conditioning
20170296048 · 2017-10-19 ·

Disclosed herein is a system that uses an eye tracker for diagnosing and facilitating rehabilitation therapy of a patient suffering from disability. The system creates a human machine interface (HMI) that integrates various low cost biosensors and artificial sensors for conducting rehabilitation therapy. The system combines spinal and supra-spinal feedback of the patient with the operant conditioning to facilitate visuomotor balance therapy (VBT), thereby reducing fall risk in disability survivors. The operant conditioning setup for shaping of visuomotor learning to bring about new behavior or to modify a certain aspect of an existing behavior is used for rehabilitation therapy that includes a behaviour response apparatus, a reward delivery module, a stimulus delivery system, and a behaviour control system. The system can also be extended to the patient's home for providing telerehabilitation therapy.
