Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to an apparatus including a scale and external circuitry. The scale includes a platform, and data-procurement circuitry for collecting signals indicative of the user's identity and cardio-physiological measurements. The scale includes processing circuitry to process data obtained by the data-procurement circuitry, therefrom generate cardio-related physiologic data, and to send user data to the external circuitry. The external circuitry identifies a risk that the user has a condition based on the reference information and the user data provided by the scale and outputs generic information correlating to the condition to the scale that is tailored based on the identified risk.

Systems, devices, and techniques are disclosed for forming an elongate lead body module of a modular lead. The method may comprise rotating a mandrel, wherein the mandrel extends through a through-hole of a conductor hub, wherein each conductor of a plurality of conductors extend through a respective channel of a plurality of channels of the conductor hub, wherein each conductor of the plurality of conductors extends from a respective bobbin of plurality of bobbins to the channels, wherein the plurality of bobbins are coupled to a carriage, the carriage defining a central opening through which the mandrel passes. The method may comprise moving the carriage away from the conductor hub along a length of the mandrel while the mandrel rotates causing the conductors to coil around the mandrel.

The present disclosure relates to establishing bidirectional communication between a brain wave processing device and a vehicle to control at least one vehicle component of the vehicle. For this purpose, a brain-computer communication channel is provided between the brain wave processing device and the respective vehicle component. Subsequently, a control signal is determined as a function of a brain wave of the operator of the brain wave processing device and transmitted via the brain-computer communication channel to adapt at least one operating parameter of the respective vehicle component. This causes a change in the operating state of the respective vehicle component. Depending on this, an output signal is generated and is assigned to the change in the operating state of the vehicle component. This output signal is transmitted back to the brain wave processing device via the brain-computer communication channel and is output to the operator by means of an output unit of the brain wave processing device.

Example headsets and electrodes are described herein. Example electrode units described herein include a housing having a cavity defined by an opening in a side of the housing and an electrode. In some such examples, the electrode includes a ring disposed in the opening and an arm, where the arm has a first portion extending outward from the opening away from the housing and a second portion extending from an end of the first portion toward the housing and into the cavity, and the first and second portions connect at a bend.
