A method and a device for activating a function of a device, preferably of a medical device. The method includes the steps of: detecting an actual state of the device using a camera, preferably an AR device, which is preferably AR glasses; comparing the actual state of the device with a desired state of the device using a CPU connected to the camera; transmitting, on the basis of the comparison, a command for starting the function of the device or a function test, preferably a function test, from the CPU to the device; and activating the function or the function test of the device on the basis of this command.

A method of administering insulin includes receiving glucose measurements of a patient at a data processing device from a continuous glucose monitoring system. The glucose measurements are separated by a time interval. The method also includes receiving patient information at the data processing device and selecting a subcutaneous insulin treatment from a collection of subcutaneous insulin treatments. The selection is based on the glucose measurements and the patient information. The selection includes one or more of a subcutaneous standard program, a subcutaneous program without meal boluses, a meal-by-meal subcutaneous program without carbohydrate counting, a meal-by-meal subcutaneous program with carbohydrate counting, and a subcutaneous program for non-diabetic patients. The method also includes executing, using the data processing device, the selected subcutaneous insulin treatment.

The present disclosure involves object recognition as a method of registration, using a stereoscopic camera on Augmented Reality (AR) glasses or an endoscope as the image capture technology. Exemplary objects include surgical tools, anatomical components or features, such as bone or cartilage, etc. By detecting just a portion of the object in the image data of the surgical scene, the present disclosure may register and track a portion of the patient's anatomy, such as the pelvis, the knee, etc. The present disclosure also optionally displays information on the AR glasses themselves, such as the entire pelvis, the femur, the tibia, etc. The present disclosure may include combinations of the foregoing features, and may eliminate the need for electromagnetic, inertial, or infrared stereoscopic tracking as the tracking technology.

One embodiment is directed to a system comprising a head-mounted member removably coupleable to the user's head; one or more electromagnetic radiation emitters coupled to the head-mounted member and configured to emit light with at least two different wavelengths toward at least one of the eyes of the user; one or more electromagnetic radiation detectors coupled to the head-mounted member and configured to receive light reflected after encountering at least one blood vessel of the eye; and a controller operatively coupled to the one or more electromagnetic radiation emitters and detectors and configured to cause the one or more electromagnetic radiation emitters to emit pulses of light while also causing the one or more electromagnetic radiation detectors to detect levels of light absorption related to the emitted pulses of light, and to produce an output that is proportional to an oxygen saturation level in the blood vessel.

A wearable system configured to collect thermal measurements related to respiration. The system includes a frame configured to be worn on a user's head, and at least one non-contact thermal camera (e.g., thermopile or microbolometer based sensor). The thermal camera is small and lightweight, physically coupled to the frame, located close to the user's face, does not occlude any of the user's mouth and nostrils, and is configured to take thermal measurements of: a portion of the right side of the user's upper lip, a portion of the left side of the user's upper lip, and a portion of the user's mouth. The thermal measurements are forwarded to a computer that calculates breathing related parameters, such as breathing rate, an extent to which the breathing was done through the mouth, an extent to which the breathing was done through the nostrils, and ratio between exhaling and inhaling durations.

A system and method for providing sensory relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, and/or sensory issues to a user in need. The user can be autistic/neurodiverse, or neurotypical. The system can be configured to obtain user sensory sensitivity data indicating a user's visual, sonic, or interoceptive, sensitivities; determine, using at least the user sensory sensitivity data, sensory thresholds specific to the user and mediation data corresponding to mediations specific to the user; store the sensory thresholds and mediation data; record, using one or more sensors, a sensory input stimulus to the user; compare the sensory input stimulus with the sensory thresholds; in response to comparing the sensory input stimulus with the sensory thresholds, determine, based at least on the mediation data, a mediation to be provided to the user, the mediation configured to provide the user relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, or sensory issues.

A training device for improving insomnia is provided, comprising a virtual reality unit and a control unit. The virtual reality unit comprises two earphones and an eye cover connected to the earphones. When the control unit executes the daytime relaxaion-assisted program, the control unit controls the earphones to play a daytime binaural beats with frequency following response. The daytime binaural beats with frequency following response have a first main carrier frequency tone and a first loading frequency tone differing from the first main carrier frequency tone by a first difference frequency rate. When the control unit executes the nighttime anti-insomnia-assisted program, the control unit controls the earphones to play the nighttime difference frequency tone. The nighttime difference frequency tone have a second main carrier frequency tone and a second loading frequency tone differing from the second main carrier frequency tone by a second difference frequency rate.

A plurality of first sensory cues are generated capable of being perceived by a user. Each first sensory cue of the plurality of first sensory cues is dependent on a position of at least one body member of a performer relative to a performance element of a performance object with which an event is performed. The plurality of first sensory cues being effective for stimulating a first processing center of a brain of the user. A plurality of visual sensory cues are generated capable of being displayed to the user on a video display device. The visual sensory cues providing a virtual visual indication to the user of the position of the at least one body member. The visual sensory cues being effective for stimulating the visual processing center of the brain of the user. The visual sensory cues being synchronized with the first sensory cues so that the position of the at least one body member is virtually visually indicated in synchronization with the first sensory cue and so that the visual processing center is stimulated with a visual sensory cue in synchronization with a first sensory cue stimulating the first processing center. The synchronized stimulation of the first processing center and the visual processing center is effective for teaching the user to perform a version of the event.
