AUTONOMOUSLY NAVIGATING ROBOT CAPABLE OF CONVERSING AND SCANNING BODY TEMPERATURE TO HELP SCREEN FOR COVID-19 AND OPERATION SYSTEM THEREOF
This application relates to an autonomously navigating robot. In one aspect, the robot includes an end effector configured to measure a person's body temperature and, when the body temperature exceeds a standard fever temperature, activate a chatbot to check symptoms of Covid-19. The robot may also include a manipulator configured to align the end effector with the person's forehead. The robot may further include a mobile robot configured to detect the person and move the end effector and the manipulator to a position where the person is located by performing autonomous navigation.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ACCURATE DETECTION OF FEBRILE CONDITIONS WITH VARYING BASELINE TEMPERATURES
The present invention is directed to systems and process for detecting a febrile condition in screening of multiple or large groups of persons for the likelihood of infectious diseases. The system comprises a temperature measurement device having at least a processor, a display, temperature sensor, camera module, and facial recognition software. The display may include a positional overlay. The system further includes a database containing baseline temperatures for a number of persons, including baseline temperatures by age group and by gender. An input device optionally may identify the specific person or provide survey questions to a person to further determine a febrile condition. Based on the baseline temperatures, measured temperature and other characteristics of the person, a febrile condition may be determined. Additionally, the system may include a secondary screening component providing nasal swabbing or saliva testing.
Exercised-based watch face and complications
Exercise-based watch faces and complications for use with a portable multifunction device are disclosed. The methods described herein for exercise-based watch faces and complications provide indications of time and affordances representing applications (e.g., a workout application or a weather application). In response to detecting a user input corresponding to a selection of the affordance (e.g., representing a workout application), a workout routine can optionally be begun. Further disclosed are non-transitory computer-readable storage media, systems, and devices configured to perform the methods described herein, as well as electronic devices related thereto.
Patient-worn wireless physiological sensor
A wireless, patient-worn, physiological sensor configured to, among other things, help manage a patient that is at risk of forming one or more pressure ulcers is disclosed. According to an embodiment, the sensor includes a base having a top surface and a bottom surface. The sensor also includes a substrate layer including conductive tracks and connection pads, a top side, and a bottom side, where the bottom side of the substrate layer is disposed above the top side of the base. Mounted on the substrate layer are a processor, a data storage device, a wireless transceiver, an accelerometer, and a battery. In use, the sensor senses a patient's motion and wirelessly transmits information indicative of the sensed motion to, for example, a patient monitor. The patient monitor receives, stores, and processes the transmitted information.
