User interface for system to promote optimum performance of handheld cosmetic device
A method for controlling display of a user interface for optimizing performance in using a personal care appliance is provided including: receiving a user info or regimen; receiving a protocol or routine to use the appliance; receiving an appliance status related to a user's usage of the appliance; comparing the appliance status to a target usage of the appliance in the protocol or routine; and controlling display of an indicator of the user's performance based on the comparison.
Video motion capture for wireless gaming
Embodiments of the present invention embody motion detection via a camera for mobile platform video gaming and exercise, in either integrated or separately attachable components. The system includes an oral care device. The oral care device, such as a toothbrush, includes one or more targets. Each target designates a specific area of the toothbrush, such as back side, a front side, a brush head or a brush end. A target can be a color or a tag, and can be removably coupled or integrally formed with the toothbrush. The system also includes an application configured to detect the targets, to determine that a property of any of the targets has changed. Based on at least the determination, the application is configured to monitor progress of brushing and to control an element in the application.
Unit dose oral cleaning device and product dispensing system
An oral cleaning device includes an elongated, hollow body, a cleaning head, and a neck portion extending between the hollow body and the cleaning head. The neck portion forms a fluid channel between the hollow body and the cleaning head and the cleaning head includes at least one opening in fluid communication with the fluid channel. The device further includes a plunger located within the hollow body, movable between a first position and a second position, and a solution chamber formed within the hollow body which contains a cleaning solution and is in fluid communication with the fluid channel in the hollow neck portion. A cleaning end of the plunger is configured to move the cleaning solution in the solution chamber through the fluid channel and through the at least one opening in the cleaning head when the plunger is moved from the first position toward the second position.
Dual Motor Apparatus
An apparatus comprising a first motor to control a rotation and a second motor to control a vibration of a moving portion of the apparatus. In one embodiment, the apparatus further comprises a controller to control of a ratio between the rotation and the vibration.
COSMETIC TOOL
A cosmetic tool for use in the entire process of the application of permanent makeup. The cosmetic tool provides the following functions: abrading of the epidermis; measuring of the face for proper design placement; precise drawing, dotting, and measuring; stirring of the pigment; and application of temporary pigment to outline the design on the areas of epidermis or skin to be treated prior to application of the permanent makeup; and application of the permanent makeup.
Oral Care Implement
Described herein is an oral care implement comprising a handle, and a head having a main body that is coupled to the handle, the head comprising a release component coupled to the main body, the release component comprising a water-dissolvable matrix comprising a first polymer having a processing temperature greater than or equal to 150? C., and a plurality of tooth cleaning elements.
Toothbrush with novel bristle arrangement, detachable bristle head, and integrated calendar reminder feature
The present disclosure provides a new design for a toothbrush having a detachable bristle head portion that interlocks with a bristle frame mounting portion to form a watertight seal. The detachable bristle head has a novel bristle formation, with the bristle holes being formed into parallel horizontal lines, and the bristles taking on a rounded shape. The toothbrush is further provided with a novel calendar reminder mechanism in the form of a rotatable cap coupled to the distal end of the brush handle, allowing a user to set a month reminder for the next time the detachable bristle head should be replaced.
Oral Care Implement
An oral care implement having an optical machine-readable representation of data, such as a barcode. The oral care implement may include a plurality of protrusions that at least partially define the optical machine-readable representation of data. Specifically, portions of the plurality of protrusions have a color that visually contrasts with a color of a surface that is exposed between the plurality of protrusions. Thus, the protrusions and the exposed surface collectively form the optical machine-readable representation of data. The oral care implement may include a soft tissue cleaner that forms the optical machine-readable representation of data.
PERSONAL CARE DEVICE COMPRISING A FORCE SENSOR
A personal care device having a personal care head, a force sensor structured and/or arranged for acquiring force sensor data, a processor structured and/or arranged for determining the force value from the force sensor data, a drive unit structured and/or arranged for driving the personal care head into a motion that is characterized by at least one motion parameter being one from the list comprising a speed, an amplitude and a frequency, the motion preferably being an oscillatory rotational motion, and a control unit structured and/or arranged for controlling the motion parameter of the personal care head in dependence on the determined force value.
