Systems and methods for concentrating alkali metal within a vapor cell of a magnetometer away from a transit path of light
An exemplary wearable sensor unit includes 1) a magnetometer comprising a vapor cell comprising an input window and containing an alkali metal, and a light source configured to output light that passes through the input window and into the vapor cell along a transit path, and 2) a temperature control circuit external to the vapor cell and configured to create a temperature gradient within the vapor cell, the temperature gradient configured to concentrate the alkali metal within the vapor cell away from the transit path of the light.
Sensing System and Method for Smart Rings Employing Sensor Spatial Diversity
A ring for photoplethysmographic sensing performs transmissive PPG and/or reflective PPG. It can enable lower power consumption, higher fidelity, and/or greater versatility to different use cases and users' specificities. The PPG system takes advantage of sensor spatial diversity to enhance the quality and the reliability of the PPG measurements in smart rings, for example. It can also perform user identification.
VIBRATION PRODUCING DEVICE WITH SLEEP CYCLE FUNCTION AND TRANSDUCER
A device is described for delivering a therapeutic vibration to a body. The device may include at least two motors in a housing with unbalanced masses coupled to their axles, such that vibration of the masses causes the two motors and housing to vibrate at a beat frequency 80. The motors and housing may be coupled to the body via a platform which places the motors and housings at or near a resonant structure in the body, creating a coupled oscillation between the platform and the body. The vibration may be based on the input signal, such that the system applies the vibration based on the input signal to the user, wherein the signal may be an audio or video signal. The system may be configured to measure and manipulate the flow of cerebral spinal fluid.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEASURING PERFORMANCE
This disclosure is related to measuring an individual's executive function under both external and internal pressures. A variety of data points and sensor data may be used to measure executive function data, including, but not limited to: first physiology data, user provided engagement factor data, and mental status data These data points may be converted into first physiology data and engagement factor data, which may be further converted into lifestyle factor data to generated, a first user score, a second user (and/or a third user) score—each score measuring performance under various different cognitive tasks or loads. The scores may be used to measure the individual's executive function under various pressure or load situations.
WEARABLE DETECTION SYSTEM FOR DETECTING VULNERABILITY FOR AND INFECTION OF A HOMEOTHERMIC LIVING ORGANISM
Wearable detection system for detecting vulnerability or risk for infection and/or inflammation and by using this prediction of infection and/or inflammation to realise an early and accurate detection of infection and/or inflammation of a homeothermic living organism. The system measures and monitors heart rate and physical activity and generates an alert of vulnerability or an alert of infection and/or inflammation. The detection is based on decomposition of the heart rate in physical, mental and circadian basal heart rate components, calculation of resilience based on evaluating energy expenditure versus recovery and evaluation of change of the circadian basal heart rate component.
