Embodiments of a multifunctional head massager are disclosed. The multifunctional head massages includes a helmet including a front shell and a rear shell, and a controller connected to the helmet. A blinder for massaging eyes is detachably connected to the front shell. In the present invention, the blinder is detachably connected to the front shell, so that the head massager has the eye massage function at the same time. When users do not want to massage their eyes, the blinder can be removed, and the head massage function is not affected.

A processing unit (104) is configured to receive the number of physiological parameters for comparing the number of physiological parameters with a set of predefined physiological parameters to generate a baseline signal (116A). An output unit (106) is configured to generate an instruction signal (118A) upon receipt of the baseline signal (116A) and a regulating unit (108) that is configured to regulate a speed of a game associated with a gamification engine (110) and a speed of an exercising apparatus (200) upon receipt of the instruction signal (118A).

A human sleep monitoring device, including a signal processing module (5), a reflecting film (3), a detection light emitting module (1) and a receiving module (4), wherein the detection light emitting module (1) is configured to emit detection light to the human body; the reflecting film (3) is configured to guide light, which is emitted by the detection light emitting module and not absorbed by the human body, to the receiving module (4); the receiving module (4) is configured to receive the light guided by the reflecting film (3); and the signal processing module (5) is configured to obtain physiological sign data of the human body according to intensity information of the light received by the receiving module (4). The device can monitor the sleep state of the human body in real time, and improve body sleep quality. A human sleep monitoring method is also provided.

The invention provides a compression device for the limb of a mobile patient. The device includes an inflatable sleeve adapted to surround the limb; a conduit attached to the sleeve for delivering fluid to the sleeve; and a portable, wearable controller attached to the conduit that generates and controls the flow of fluid in the device.

Devices, systems and methods are presented for providing safety functionality in an exoskeleton system. In particular, some embodiments make use of a sensor system and methodology with/for an exoskeleton apparatus to facilitate such safety functionality. For example, a system for regulating a load amount applied on a user of an exoskeleton may comprise one or more sensors for sensing data related to an amount of force exerted at a limb of the user by apart of the exoskeleton; a communications component for transmitting the sensed data to a processing unit operably coupled to the exoskeleton; and the processing unit configured to process the data so as to determine the amount of exerted force and generate an instruction to trigger a mode of operation of the exoskeleton based on the determined amount of force.

Disclosed herein is a ventilator system and method, for alveolar micro-circulation enhancement using pulse cycle harmonized ventilation pressure modulation of a patient. The system includes a sensor unit, a controller unit and a supply unit. The sensor unit is configured to sense a set of physiological parameters to determine one or more cardiovascular activities of the patient. The controller unit is communicatively coupled to the sensor unit, and is configured to determine a dynamic pattern of an oxygenated air supply for the patient based on the sensed cardiovascular activity. The supply unit is communicatively coupled to the controller unit and is configured to supply the determined pressure wave to create a dynamic alteration in the air flow pattern of the ventilated air to the patient in response to the cardiovascular activity. Some embodiments of the system also represent the system as an air flow controlling apparatus, capable be coupled to any ventilator system internally or externally to control the flow of air in the dynamic pattern.

A remotely controlled powered chair may include a support frame, a seat pivotally mounted on the support frame, an rotary actuator mounted between the support frame and the seat to drive the seat to move relative to the support frame, a backrest pivotally mounted on the seat, and a linear actuator mounted between the seat and the backrest to drive the backrest to move relative to the seat. Thus, the rotary actuator may be controlled by an electrically control device to drive the seat to pivot relative to the support frame reciprocally in a pendulum manner so that the seat is pivoted relative to the support frame automatically. In addition, the linear actuator may be controlled by the electrically control device to adjust the inclined angle of the backrest so as to provide a comfortable sensation to the user. A remotely controlled powered chair may include a base assembly. A chair frame is supported on the base assembly. An actuator mechanism may communicate with the base assembly and the chair frame, and is operable to actuate the chair frame between first and second positions.

A physical therapy or palpation evaluation or diagnosis device, system, and method for evaluating the condition of a patient's body, for example, the spine and/or soft tissue. The physical therapist currently uses palpation to subjectively evaluate the condition of the spine, soft tissue and/or muscle of the patient. The physical therapist assigns a subjective score (from 0-10) based on the stiffness and/or mobility of the vertebrae. If a different physical therapist examines the same patient later in the treatment process, the subjective evaluation from the prior therapist would be difficult to interpret.
