EARLY WARNING OF NON-COMPLIANCE WITH AN ESTABLISHED WORKFLOW IN A WORK AREA
A system for early warning of non-compliance with an established workflow in a work area includes a radio frequency (RF) sensor configured to detect each of a plurality of RF signals located within the work area, and a monitoring system operably connected to the RF sensor. The monitoring system is configured to compare a temporal sequence of detected RF signals to a predetermined temporal sequence of the RF signals associated with the established workflow, and to determine whether a warning condition exists based on the comparison. The RF signals can be emitted by RFID tags within the work area, such as a patient room of a healthcare provider, and the RFID tags may be associated with a hand sanitizing station, an intravenous solution dispenser, and a healthcare provider staff member, each of which play a role in reducing the incidence of hospital-acquired infections through compliance with corresponding patient safety protocols.
CEILING AI HEALTH MONITORING APPARATUS AND REMOTE MEDICAL-DIAGNOSIS METHOD USING THE SAME
A ceiling artificial intelligence (AI) health monitoring system, includes a monitoring device provided on a ceiling of a space to acquire health information from a patient, and a medical management device configured to apply the health information of the patient acquired to an artificial intelligence-based learning model to determine health condition information of the patient and provide the determination result to a doctor monitor. The medical management device is configured to provide remote medical diagnosis information from the doctor monitor to a user terminal.
Imaging a Body
There is disclosed a device for imaging a body. In one arrangement, the device comprises a controller, storage storing electronic program instructions for controlling the controller, a display for displaying a user interface, and an input means. In one form, the controller is operable, under control of the electronic program instructions, to receive input via the input means, where the input comprises a first representation of the body, to process the first representation, to generate a second representation of the body on the basis of processing of the first representation, and to display the generated second representation via the display.
Watching system, watching method, and recording medium
A watching system, which calculates a fall probability of an imaged person to be fallen using a computer which includes a processor and a memory, includes a trunk extraction unit that receives time-series skeleton information of the imaged person, calculates an angle between a head and a waist of the imaged person based on the skeleton information, extracts the angle as a trunk of the imaged person, calculates the center of the trunk as a trunk center based on trunk information set in advance, extracts a trunk to be reference as a reference trunk from a time-series trunk calculated from the time-series skeleton information, and holds a center of the reference trunk, and a fall probability calculation unit that calculates a distance between a trunk center of the reference trunk and a trunk center of the trunk as a deviation amount, and calculates the fall probability from the deviation amount.
Breath tester
The present invention relates to a breath tester. The breath tester includes a sensor for sensing a mind-altering substance in breath from a blower (i.e., person blowing and providing a sample). A breath guide is provided for guiding the breath so that it is not returned to the blower. Advantageously, the guide guides the breath so that it is not returned to the blower to thereby minimise the likelihood of spread of infectious disease.
Radar detection system
A radar presence detection system is configured to detect oscillations within a building. The radar presence detection system includes an accelerometer, a radar, and a processing unit. The accelerometer is attached to the building and configured to detect structural vibration waves. The radar is configured to transmit a monitoring wave and receive a reflected wave. The processing unit includes a filter, an adaptive filter, and a detector. The filter is configured to receive a first signal indicative of the reflected wave and output a filtered reflected wave signal spanning a frequency range indicative of an oscillation within the building. The adaptive filter is configured to receive a second signal indicative of the structural vibration wave signal and output a focused vibration signal spanning a frequency range for the cancellation of vibration noise.
MONITORING DEVICE, MONITORING SYSTEM, MONITORING METHOD, MONITORING PROGRAM, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA WITH MONITORING PROGRAM RECORDING THEREON
A position identifying unit is configured to identify the location of a monitored person in the horizontal direction and maximum height of the monitored person in the vertical direction on the basis of top-down image data acquired by an upper image sensor provided above a monitored area capturing an image of the monitored area and lateral image data acquired by a lateral image sensor provided along a side of the monitored area capturing an image of the monitored area. An event determining unit assesses a fall-related event for the monitored person on the basis of a location in the horizontal direction, a maximum height in the vertical direction.
PROCEDE DE DETECTION DE PRESENCE ET/OU D'ANALYSE COMPORTEMENTALE A DISTANCE, SON DISPOSITIF DE MISE EN OEUVRE ET DISPOSITIF DE DETECTION DE PRESENCE
Disclosed is a method for remote presence detection and remote behavioral analysis of an individual in a living area, including furnishing detection data by a presence detection unit during the detection of the individual in at least one detection zone covered by the detection unit, the transmission of data by the detection unit to an electronic data acquisition module, remote sending of data, from the electronic data acquisition module via a communication unit, to a remote data processing unit for automatically generating at least one piece of information, with the remote data processing unit being associated with at least one software application that can automatically generate one or more pieces of information relative to the fall of an individual from a standing, seated or lying-down position, and/or relative to the behavior of an individual in the detection zone or zones in particular to deduce therefrom one or more behavioral anomalies.
GAS-MONITORING APPARATUS FOR DETECTING BOWEL MOVEMENTS AND METHOD OF USE
A room monitoring device designed and intended to detect a bowel movement (BM) of a person occupying the room, such as a baby or infant or an adult with special needs or in a care facility. The device tests the air for particular substances such as, but not limited to, methane and hydrogen sulfide. The test is performed multiple times per minute to reduce the chances of a false-positive detection. Once the device detects a positive BM, it alerts a user via Wi-Fi message, SMS text message, visual alerts (e.g., flashing lights), and/or audio alerts. This device may be paired with existing monitoring devices, such as a baby monitor with a remote camera.
CONTACTLESS COUGH DETECTION AND ATTRIBUTION
Methods, devices, and systems for contactless cough detection and attribution are presented herein. Audio data may be received using a microphone. A cough may be identified as having occurred based on the received audio data. Radar data may be received indicative of reflected radio waves from a radar sensor. A state analysis process may be performed using the received radar data. The detected cough may be attributed to a particular user based at least in part on the state analysis process performed using the radar data.
