WALKING TRAINING SYSTEM, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND CONTROL PROGRAM
The walking training device includes: a robot leg attached to one leg of a trainee; a treadmill; a load distribution sensor that detects a distribution of a load received from a sole of the trainee; and a walking state distinguishing unit that determines whether the one leg is in a swinging leg state; a control unit that performs a predetermined bending-extending control for the swinging leg state of the one leg by the robot leg when the one leg is in the swinging leg state; a measuring unit that measures a clearance between the one leg in the swinging leg state and the treadmill. The control unit changes control content of the predetermined bending-extending control so that the one leg does not contact the belt of the treadmill during extending control of the one leg, when the clearance is less than a specified value.
VIBRATING ORAL COMFORT DEVICE AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLY FOR DEVICE
A vibrating teething device includes a silicon outer shell that is larger than a human mouth and having protrusions that can fit within a human infant mouth; a battery powered vibrator encased within an open cavity in the silicon outer shell; and a cap fastened over the open cavity.
SUCTION ASSEMBLY
A suction assembly is described. The suction assembly includes a therapy unit with a body that can apply a supplemental therapy to a skin surface. The suction assembly also includes a cup that can be removably connected to the therapy unit and that can interface with a skin surface to define a chamber within the cup. A pump of the therapy unit can reduce a pressure within the chamber to draw the skin surface into the chamber in a cupping therapy. In response to the skin surface being drawn into the chamber, the body can move in a longitudinal direction to maintain contact with the skin surface. A wall of the cup is translucent and the suction assembly is dimensioned to provide a user with a view into the chamber through the wall of the cup that is substantially unobstructed by the housing.
Compression garment systems
Compression garment systems and methods may deliver fluid to one or more fluid cells using a target pressure and an adjustable manifold pressure that may be adjusted to, for example, deliver an amount of fluid to the one or more fluid cells to achieve the desired target pressure. Further, the compression garment systems and methods may provide a graphical user interface depicting a human-shaped graphical element and a compression therapy graphical indication about the human-shaped graphical element. The compression therapy graphical indication may indicate, or show, where on the human-shaped graphical element the compression therapy may be delivered to. Still further, the compression garment systems and methods may include or use a communication interface to determine or identify a compression garment to be used therewith. The identity of the compression garment can be used to configure compression therapy for the compression garment.
Method of connecting a user device anonymously to a remote operator
A method of connecting a user device anonymously to a remote operator, via an intermediate anonymizing server is described. In this way, a remote operator may control the device, without the remote operator knowing the identity of the owner or of user of the device. A remote operator might provide medical support or entertainment. The user of the device is provided with a connection key, which is then further given by the user to a desired remote operator. Both the user and the remote operator provide the anonymizing server with the connection key. The anonymizing server opens a chat room uniquely associated with the connection key. Electronic connectivity is provided by forwarding messages between the user device and the remote operator through the chat room. No other access to the chat room is permitted. The anonymizing server does not store the connection key. No user application is required.
Therapeutic device for human hair and skincare
A therapeutic device, for human hair and skincare, comprises a gripping unit a functional unit including a first functional module and a second functional module, the first functional module including a first plate and a second functional module including a second plate, wherein a second surface of the second plate is oriented in an opposite direction to a first surface of the first plate, a plurality of teeth oriented in the direction of the orientation of the first surface, the plurality of teeth including a plurality of respective primary Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), a plurality of secondary LEDs provided on the second plate and oriented in the direction of the orientation of the second surface and a sensor unit configured to determine hair distribution data on a body portion of a user.
MASSAGE DEVICE FOR LEGREST OF VEHICLE SEAT
Disclosed is a massage device for a legrest of a vehicle seat in which a massage module capable of massaging the calves of a passenger by striking the same is installed so as to massage the calves of the passenger, thereby improving blood flow to the calves and significantly reducing the fatigue of the passenger.
Pneumatic therapy apparatus and method with overlapped compression
The pneumatic therapy apparatus and method with overlapped compression include a wrap and a controller. The wrap includes an outer wrap and an inner air bladder set; the controller can be fixedly connected to, detachably connected to, or separately connected to the outer wrap; the inner air bladder set includes one or more than one set of a first air bladder and a second air bladder that are overlapped; the controller contains an inflating motor and an integrated control board that are electrically connected. The inflating motor that is controlled by the integrated control board inflates the second air bladder first and then the first air bladder to achieve the overlapped compression between the second air bladder and the first air bladder. Therefore, the user can use the pneumatic therapy apparatus and method with overlapped compression to promote blood flow, treat lymphedema, prevent deep vein thrombosis and other diseases, and improve user experience in the treatment areas.
Medical device for improving environmental perception for blind or visually-impaired users
A device for improving environmental perception for blind or visually impaired users, including a set of mechanical actuators intended to be in contact with the skin of a user, at least one digital camera designed to acquire a current digital image of an environment facing the user, a processing circuit connected to the camera for receiving pixel signals from the acquired digital image and converting at least one portion of the pixel signals into control signals, each of which powers a mechanical actuator of the set of actuators, an eye-tracking module for tracking each eye of the user to identify a gaze direction of the user. The processing circuit then selects, in the environment filmed by the camera, an area of acquired current image which is a function of the gaze direction and converts the pixel signals of said area into control signals, each of which powers an actuator of the set to stimulate the user's skin.
SYSTEM FOR ASSISTING MUSCLE STRENGTH
Provided is a system for muscle strength support. The system includes an exoskeleton which is configured to be attached to a body of a human during use of the system, and a control unit for controlling a supportive force provided by the exoskeleton during use of the system.
