Massage apparatus
Disclosed is a massage apparatus. The massage apparatus includes a vibration array including a plurality of vibration devices, a driver configured to vibrate the plurality of vibration devices, and a processor configured to control the driver to generate a stimulus at a stimulus point between the plurality of vibration devices by simultaneously vibrating two or more vibration devices among the plurality of vibration devices.
System, devices, and methods for long lasting lip plumping
A lip plumping device includes a positive pressure device having a striking rod and striking head attached on the an end of the striking rod; a force-generating element to propel the striking head with energy which upon impacting on a target spot on a lip or in an area around the lip increases blood flood to the target spot on the lip or in the area around the lip which produces a lip plumping effect; and a button that controls the force-generating element. The target spot and a striking force of the positive pressure device is controlled by instructions from a computing device.
Learning system, rehabilitation support system, method, program, and trained model
A learning unit of a learning system generates a learning model, the learning model being configured to input rehabilitation data about rehabilitation and predict feedback control to be performed, the rehabilitation being performed by a trainee using a rehabilitation support system. The rehabilitation support system performs the feedback control based on motivation information of the trainee. The rehabilitation data includes at least training data including the motivation information of the trainee and feedback information indicating the feedback control. The learning unit generates the learning model by using, as teacher data, the rehabilitation data that is obtained when the motivation information is one that causes such a change that the motivation of the trainee is improved.
SYSTEM, APPARATUS, AND METHOD FOR SYNCHRONOUSLY CONTROLLING DEVICES
A system is disclosed. The system has an accessory control module, comprising computer-executable code stored in non-volatile memory, a processor, a user device of a human viewer, a viewer accessory configured to communicate with the user device, the viewer accessory including a first motor or a first heater, a model device of a human model, and a model accessory configured to communicate with the model device, the model accessory including a second motor or a second heater. The accessory control module, the processor, the user device, the viewer accessory, the model device, and the model accessory are configured to provide a chat communication application between the human viewer and the human model configured to provide chat between the human viewer via the user device and the human model via the model device.
MOBILITY AID ROBOT NAVIGATING METHOD AND MOBILITY AID ROBOT USING THE SAME
Navigation of a mobility aid robot having a camera and gripping part(s) disposed toward different directions is disclosed. The mobility aid robot is navigated to approach a user by identifying a posture of the user through the camera, determining a mode of the robot according to a type of the specified task to be performed on the user and the identified posture of the user, controlling the robot to move according to a planned trajectory corresponding to the determined mode of the robot, and turning the robot upon reaching the desired pose such that the gripping part faces the user, in response to the determined mode of the robot corresponding to the specified task of an assisting type and the user at one of a standing posture and a sitting posture.
Devices and methods for delivering mechanical stimulation to nerve, mechanoreceptor, and cell targets
Presented herein are systems, methods, and devices that provide for stimulation of nerves and/or targets such as mechanoreceptors, tissue regions, mechanoresponsive proteins, and vascular targets through generation and delivery of mechanical vibrational waves. In certain embodiments, the approaches described herein utilize a stimulation device (e.g., a wearable device) for generation and delivery of the mechanical vibrational waves. As described herein, the delivered vibrational waves can be tailored based on particular targets (e.g., nerves, mechanoreceptors, vascular targets, tissue regions) to stimulate and/or to elicited particular desired responses in a subject.
Automated generation of control signals for sexual stimulation devices
A system and method for automated generation of control signals for sexual stimulation devices from usage history and other data. The system and method involve analyzing historical usage and other data for a user for a device or devices, processing the data through machine learning algorithms, and generating new or recombined patterns of stimulation based on the outputs from the machine learning algorithms. The resulting automated control signals represent partially or fully customized stimulation for a given user which evolve over time as the user continues to use the device or devices.
Systems and methods for remotely-enabled identification of a user infection
Systems and methods for identifying a condition of a user. A treatment apparatus is configured to be manipulated by the user for performing an exercise, and an interface is communicably coupled to the treatment apparatus. One or more sensors are configured to sense one or more characteristics of an anatomical structure of the user. A processing device and a memory is communicatively coupled to the processing device. The memory includes computer readable instructions, that when executed by the processing device, cause the processing device to: receive, from the sensors, one or more sensor inputs representative of the one or more of characteristics of the anatomical structures; calculate an infection probability of a disease based on the one or more characteristics of the anatomical structures; and output, to the interface, a representation of the infection probability.
Portable system for the prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis
A system is disclosed for stimulating venous and arterial circulation in a patient to prevent deep vein thrombosis, which includes a first inflatable garment sleeve configured to be wrapped around the left calf of the patient and having a first air input tube extending from an exterior surface thereof, a second inflatable garment sleeve configured to be wrapped around the right calf of the patient and having a second air input tube extending from an exterior surface of the second garment sleeve, a portable pump for cyclically inflating the first and second garment sleeves, and a bifurcated tube assembly for connecting the portable pump to the first and second air input tubes of the first and second garment sleeves.
GASTROINTESTINAL TREATMENT SYSTEM INCLUDING A VIBRATING CAPSULE AND METHOD OF USE THEREOF
A gastrointestinal treatment system including a gastrointestinal capsule adapted to treat a subject following ingestion of the gastrointestinal capsule. The gastrointestinal capsule includes: (a) a housing; (b) a vibrating agitator, powered by the battery, the vibrating agitator adapted such that, in a first vibrating mode of operation, the housing exerts vibrations on an environment surrounding the capsule; (c) a power supply disposed within the housing and adapted to power the vibrating agitator; and (d) a controller adapted, in response to receipt of an activation input, to activate the vibrating agitator to operate in the first vibrating mode of operation at at least one predetermined time of day. The system and method may be used to treat an ailment of the gastrointestinal tract and/or to mitigate at least one symptom of jetlag in a subject travelling from an origin location to a destination location.
