The embodiment provides a control unit for measuring living body information on the basis of pressure pulse waves detected by pressure sensors in a state that the pressure sensors are pressed toward a radius artery by an air bag and display units which are arranged around a wrist in the state that the pressure sensors are pressed toward the radius artery. The control unit performs display controls on the display units. One of the display units is disposed on the palm side of the wrist in the state that the pressure sensors are pressed toward the radius artery. The other one of the display units is disposed on the hand back side of the wrist in the state that the pressure sensors are pressed toward the radius artery.

A system for detecting and recording head orientations of a person includes: a first sensor device capable of providing sensor data regarding a head orientation of a person in a three-dimensional space; a data acquisition system configured for storing and outputting the sensor data from the first sensor device; and a processor configured for processing the sensor data from the data acquisition system, outputting a first signal representing the head orientation, and generating an image for presentation by a graphical display; wherein the image comprises: a first reference indicator; an orientation indicator, wherein a position of the orientation indicator in the image is determined based on the first signal from the processor, and a feedback indicator when a first condition is met.

In some implementations, a system can transmit communications indicating an occurrence of a particular type of safety incident experienced by a user. Registration information that indicates that a plurality of safety devices of different types are to be registered with the user is initially obtained. Sensor data from the plurality of safety devices of different types are obtained. An occurrence of a particular type of safety incident experienced by the user is then selected from among a plurality of types of safety incidents. The selection may be based at least on the obtained sensor data and the obtained registration information. A communication is then provided to another user to indicate the occurrence of the particular type of safety incident experienced by the user in response to selecting the occurrence of the particular type of safety incident.

Systems and methods for continuous measurement of an analyte in a host are provided. The system generally includes a continuous analyte sensor configured to continuously measure a concentration of analyte in a host and a sensor electronics module physically connected to the continuous analyte sensor during sensor use, wherein the sensor electronics module is further configured to directly wirelessly communicate displayable sensor information to a plurality of different types of display devices.

Disclosed herein are a slim immersive display device and a slim visualization device. The slim immersive display device includes a slim visualization module for forming an image on a retina of an eyeball of a user based on an externally input image signal, a state information acquisition unit for acquiring a state of an external device as a state image, and a content control unit for analyzing the state image, generating an image corresponding to virtual-reality environment information, and inputting the image to the slim visualization module.

Systems are provided for generating data representing electromagnetic states of a heart for medical, scientific, research, and/or engineering purposes. The systems generate the data based on source configurations such as dimensions of, and scar or fibrosis or pro-arrhythmic substrate location within, a heart and a computational model of the electromagnetic output of the heart. The systems may dynamically generate the source configurations to provide representative source configurations that may be found in a population. For each source configuration of the electromagnetic source, the systems run a simulation of the functioning of the heart to generate modeled electromagnetic output (e.g., an electromagnetic mesh for each simulation step with a voltage at each point of the electromagnetic mesh) for that source configuration. The systems may generate a cardiogram for each source configuration from the modeled electromagnetic output of that source configuration for use in predicting the source location of an arrhythmia.
