An intelligent compression device for controllable compression. The compression device includes a compressible body and a microprocessor. The compressible body encircles a limb of a user and includes an elastomer layer and an activation layer. The elastomer layer includes voxelated liquid crystal elastomers that contract in response to a stimulus. The activation element, which is positioned proximate to the elastomer layer, supplies the stimulus. The microprocessor actuates at least a portion of the activation element layer.

An exoskeleton includes a first link that pivots in a transverse plane about a first vertical axis and a second link that pivots in a transverse plane about a second vertical axis. The second link is coupled to the first link. An arm support assembly is coupled to the second link and pivots about a horizontal axis. The arm support assembly includes a spring that generates an assistive torque that counteracts gravity. The arm support assembly provides the assistive torque to an arm of a wearer to support the arm of the wearer. The arm support assembly further includes a cam profile and a cam follower. Contact between the spring, cam follower and cam profile determines an amount of the assistive force provided by the arm support assembly. A cuff is coupled to the arm support assembly and the arm of the wearer.

A wearable thermometer patch for monitoring healing of a wound on a user's skin includes a circuit substrate comprising an electric circuit and a plurality of temperature probe units distributed in a two-dimensional array. Each of the plurality of temperature probe units can include a temperature sensor in electric connection with the electric circuit in the circuit substrate. The plurality of temperature probe units can measure temperature values on a user's skin at different positions defined by the two-dimensional array.

A pressure cuff or garment for prophylactic treatment of deep vein thrombosis includes a series of three chambers arranged in series and coupled fluidically to one another by bleed tubes or chokes. The chambers are otherwise sealed to the environment, save for the first chamber which also provides an inlet/outlet for coupling to a fluid pump. The chambers are also of curved shape so as to overlap one another. The cuff or garment provides more effective pulsating pressure treatment than prior art structures.

An individualization assembly for a wearable sitting posture assisting device includes at least one individualization unit which is connectable to at least one functional assembly of the wearable sitting posture assisting device and is configured for individualization of the wearable sitting posture assisting device in at least one wearing state.

An intelligent compression device for controllable compression. The compression device includes a compressible body and a microprocessor. The compressible body encircles a limb of a user and includes an elastomer layer and an activation layer. The elastomer layer includes voxelated liquid crystal elastomers that contract in response to a stimulus. The activation element, which is positioned proximate to the elastomer layer, supplies the stimulus. The microprocessor actuates at least a portion of the activation element layer.

A portable spinal decompression device includes a top (thoracic) adjustable belt and bottom (lumbar) adjustable belt with a plurality of traction devices attached at set anchor points for applying traction forces to a body to facilitate spinal disc decompression and alleviate pain of users with spinal disorders. The portable device that fits various shapes and body sizes can be operated by a user without additional assistance and can be used while the individual is in numerous positions during his or her daily routine.

A wearable massage and/or compression device for applying controllable scrolling or intermittent sequential forces, such as compression forces, to the body and limbs of a user comprises an elongated fabric body sized to encircle a limb of a user, one or more shape-memory wires carried by the fabric body and configured to apply a compression pressure to the limb through the fabric body upon changing shape in response to a stimulus, and a micro-processor based controller for selectively actuating the one or more shape-changing elements to reduce the effective diameter of the device encircling the limb, to thereby apply pressure to the limb.

A hand-held, non-penetrating, non-phallic shaped apparatus for clitoral massage and stimulation comprising a massager housing having a generally prolate spheroid shape sized to fit entirely within a user's palm leaving a user's fingers free, generally convex top and bottom, first and second convex ends, a power source; a vibrating source contained within the massager housing providing at least one level of vibration; at least one switch for activating said vibration; a generally elliptical three-dimensional concave depression on a surface of the convex top of one of said convex ends of sufficient length, width, and depth for enveloping and facilitating the stimulation of a woman's clitoris and labia; wherein when in use the apparatus is held by the bottom.

A multi-purpose wearable prophylactic and intimacy aid device made of a material mimicking human flesh, used during a sexual relationship having different purposes such as but not exclusive to providing, independently or in combination with a body part of the wearer at least one entryway to receive a means of penetration, reducing skin to skin contact to decrease the risk of STDs, and enhancing the size and shape of parts of the body of the wearer.
