The present disclosure features systems and devices for robotic debridement and perforating of finger- and toenails, as well as methods of use of the same. The systems and devices may be used for in the treatment of fungal infection of the nail, as well as for cosmetic uses, e.g., pedicure and manicure.

A beauty product device is disclosed which includes a variety of sensors for sensing the way in which a user is operating the device. The sensor data can be processed and compared with pre-stored data representative of a desired style and feedback messages generated and provided back to the user to help them achieve the style they wish to achieve based on the comparison.

A system for dispensing hair care formulations including a communication device that includes processing circuitry capable of taking a photo of a user's hair, uploading the photo into an application on a communication device, applying an algorithm to the photo to detect one or more hair features, sensing one or more environmental conditions with one or more sensors, and recommending a hair care treatment regimen of one or more hair care formulas based on the one or more hair features, and the one or more environmental conditions. The system also includes one or more cartridges containing one or more hair care formulas, and a dispensing device configured to dispense one or more hair care formulas from the one or more cartridges based on the hair care treatment regimen.

Devices, systems, and methods for applying cosmetic designs to biological subjects are provided. An applicator array device may include a substrate. The applicator array device may also include, a plurality of applicator elements disposed on the substrate, together defining an applicator array. Each applicator element may include an applicator member having a length substantially orthogonal to an outer surface of the substrate, a first portion of the length extending from the outer surface of the substrate and a second portion of the applicator member extending through the substrate. The first portion may define a first end and the second portion may define a second end opposite the first end. Each applicator element may also include an applicator surface defined by the first end.

The present disclosure relates to a method for determining a user-specific hair treatment with determination and inclusion of the degree of damage of the hair. To this end, the content of cysteic acid is firstly determined with the aid of near-infrared and/or infrared spectra of the keratin fibres of an individual and a degree of damage is derived via a calibration model. Individual treatment advice is output on the basis of the determined degree of damage.

A cosmetic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: a main body; a head module that is detachable from the main body; a control unit for recognizing the head module mounted to the main body; and a communication unit for transmitting information about the recognized head module to a mobile terminal. The control unit can control the operation of the head module mounted to the main body differently according to the information received from the mobile terminal.

A device for ensuring safe operation of a robot used for cosmetics applications, including the retrofitting of robots not originally design for such applications. In some embodiments, the robot is used for the automatic placement of eyelash extensions onto the natural eyelashes of a subject. In some embodiments, a safety barrier is provided by a physical barrier or light curtain. In other embodiments, readily deformable end effectors are used.

Disclosed is a method for simulating the rendering of a make-up product on the face of a subject, using a database of reference images including, for each reference individual, images of the face with and without the makeup product. The method includes: acquiring an image of the subject face without makeup; processing the image to extract, for each spatial area of each spatial frequency range of the image, first color feature values of the spatial area; determining, among the database of reference images, reference individuals having, when wearing no makeup, color feature values similar to the first color feature values of the subject; determining, from the first color feature values of the subject, and from color feature values of the reference individuals with and without the makeup product, second color feature values; and generating a modified image of the subject face based on the second color feature values.

A battery powered blow dryer having a novel battery cooling feature to simultaneously cool the batteries and improve hair dryer performance.

An arrangement and a computer program product are provided for determining body surface characteristics. An arrangement includes an acquisition unit configured to detect body surface features by Multiple Spatially Resolved Reflection Spectroscopy (MSRRS) in a wavelength range between about 300 nm and about 1500 nm; a data storage unit to interrogate data using the characteristics; and a user interface comprising an output unit, wherein the user interface is configured to interact with a user. Further, the arrangement includes a portable computing unit configured for: interacting with a user and for evaluating the features and for determining the characteristics based on the features; obtaining from the data storage unit features of treatment products and/or application instructions for non-therapeutic treatment of a body surface according to the characteristics; and instructing the output unit to output information on the treatment products and/or application instructions to a user.
