Multi-biometric-factor, internet of things (IoT), secured network
A method for authenticating to a network comprising a plurality of Internet of Things (“IoT”) devices is provided. The method may include using a mobile telephone apparatus, a wrist-worn apparatus and a head-worn apparatus to monitor the level of at least one of a wearer's pulse, body temperature, voice, gait and/or other biorhythmic indicator. One of the aforementioned apparatus may operate as a hub apparatus. The method may further include using the hub apparatus to assign a federated biometric marker based at least in part on the first, second and third biometric markers. The method may also include using artificial intelligence to monitor for one or more outliers with respect to historical monitoring. Each of the one or more outliers may include a magnitude that exceeds a security threshold difference between the current magnitude and the historically monitored magnitude. When the difference in magnitude exceeds a security threshold difference between the current magnitude and the historically monitored magnitude the method may quarantine apparatus associated with the outlier.

An apparatus for estimating bio-information may include a sensor part including a pixel array of pixels, each pixel having a light source and a detector; and a processor configured to, based on an object being in contact with the sensor part, drive the sensor part based on a first sensor configuration; obtain contact information of the object based on an amount of light received by each pixel according to the first sensor configuration; determine a second sensor configuration based on the contact information; drive the sensor part based on the second sensor configuration; and estimate the bio-information based on light signals obtained according to the second sensor configuration.
State-based methods and systems using continuous glucose monitors and accelerometers to regulate glucose levels
Embodiments include methods and systems for regulating a user's glucose levels. Systems comprise a processing unit in communication with a glucose monitor, an accelerometer, and a user interface. The glucose monitor generates glucose readings corresponding to the user's glucose levels and the accelerometer generates acceleration readings corresponding to the user's activity. The processing unit determines if the glucose readings indicate a glucose state and whether the acceleration readings indicate an activity state. If the glucose state and the activity state coincide, the processing unit sends a message to the user interface recommending a behavior that would influence the user's glucose level. Methods comprise determining, at a processing unit, if glucose readings indicate a glucose state, if acceleration readings indicate an activity state, whether the glucose state and activity state coincide and, if so, sending a message to a user interface recommending a behavior that would influence the user's glucose level.
Personal Health Data Collection
The present invention provides a personal hand-held monitor comprising a signal acquisition device for acquiring signals which can be used to derive a measurement of a parameter related to the health of the user, the signal acquisition device being integrated with a personal hand-held computing device. The present invention also provides a signal acquisition device adapted to be integrated with a personal hand-held computing device to produce a personal hand-held monitor as defined above.
SENSORS FOR A PORTABLE DEVICE
A portable sensing system device and method for providing microwave or RF (radio-frequency) sensing functionality for a portable device, the device comprising: a portable device housing configured to be carried by a user; and a sensing unit within said housing con-figured to characterize an object located in proximity to the portable system, said sensing unit comprising: a wideband electromagnetic transducer array said array comprising a plurality of electromagnetic transducers; a transmitter unit for applying RF signals to said electromagnetic transducer array; and a receiver unit for receiving coupled RF signals from said electromagnetic transducers array.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE ELECTRONIC DEVICE
An electronic device and a method for controlling the same are provided.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING INFORMATION INDICATIVE OF CARDIAC CONDITION
An apparatus for producing information indicative of cardiac condition includes a processing system for receiving a rotation signal indicative of rotational movement of a chest. The processing system is configured to form one or more indicator quantities each being derivable from an energy spectral density based on one or more samples of the rotation signal, where each sample has a temporal length. The processing system is configured to determine an indicator of cardiac condition on the basis of the one or more indicator quantities. The determination of the cardiac condition is based on that for example myocardial infarction causes changes in the energy spectral density. Thus, it is possible to distinguish between for example myocardial infarction and plain heartburn.
