Medical device having capacitive coupling communication and energy harvesting

Provided is a wearable, self-contained drug infusion or medical device capable of communicating with a host controller or other external devices via a personal area network (PAN). The medical device utilizes a PAN transceiver for communication with other devices in contact with a user's body, such as a physiological sensor or host controller, by propagating a current across the user's body via capacitive coupling. The wearable nature of the medical device and the low power requirements of the PAN communication system enable the medical device to utilize alternative energy harvesting techniques for powering the device. The medical device preferably utilizes thermal, kinetic and other energy harvesting techniques for capturing energy from the user and the environment during normal use of the medical device. A system power distribution unit is provided for managing the harvested energy and selectively supplying power to the medical device during system operation.

Sleep Tracking Method and Device
20220155737 · 2022-05-19 ·

Systems and techniques for enhanced sleep tracking, monitoring, and conditioning are discussed herein. A device may be couplable to, or integrally formed with, a piece of furniture (a “nearable”) receives sensor data from one or more sensors accessible to the device and, based on a determined stage of sleep, may actuate one or more devices for conditioning sleep. In some examples, the nearable may be configured to receive a smartphone such that one or more processors and sensors of the smartphone may be used to perform at least some of the processes. When configured to receive a smartphone, the nearable's cavity may retain the smartphone via a spring mechanism to create an additional button for user interaction, as well as be shaped to minimize an amount of electromagnetic radiation (including light emitted from a screen) of the smartphone, while optimizing sounds output from the smartphone.

DEVICE FOR AUTOMATICALLY COLLECTING SNOT
20220143294 · 2022-05-12 ·

The present disclosure discloses a device for automatically collecting snot, which comprises a suction nozzle, a collecting cup, a cup holder and a shell component which are detachably connected in sequence, wherein the shell component is a hollow cavity. The present disclosure generates negative pressure suction through the air pump, and then the suction air enters the inner collecting cup through the air suction pipe, the cup holder air inlet, the air inlet channel and the micropore in sequence. Finally, the suction sucks the snot in the nose of a user into the inner collecting cup through the suction nozzle, effectively solving the problem of snot reflux.

Footwear auxiliaries for synchronously toning leg muscles in order to straighten back posture

A programmable memory device for incorporation within a medium to distribute a force or shock, F, within the medium. It includes a programmable combination of micro-levers that cooperate in order to selectively disperse, absorb, redirect, reorient, or displace, at least part of the force, F, in a customizable fashion. At least one of the micro-levers includes a platform that is supported on a top portion of a support, in order to enable a lever action or momentum of the platform within the medium. As the force, F, is applied on the micro-lever, a reactive force, R, is generated and causes any a movement of the platform relative to the support or a movement of the support relative to the platform, effectively dispersing, absorbing, redirecting, reorienting, or displacing the force, F, within the medium.
