A system, method, and apparatus for implementing workflows across multiple differing systems and devices is provided herein. During operation, a workflow is automatically generated based upon a high probability of overloading resources with a current workflow. In particular, a workstation (or server) detects a high probability that a resource will be overloaded if a particular trigger is implemented. The workstation (or server) then determines an alternate trigger to reduce the chances that a resource will be overloaded. The alternate trigger and action can then be implemented or suggested as a newly-created workflow.

A system for authenticating a user attempting to access a computing device or a software application executing thereon. A data storage device stores one or more digital images or frames of video of face(s) of authorized user(s) of the device. The system subsequently receives from a first video camera one or more digital images or frames of video of a face of the user attempting to access the device and compares the image of the face of the user attempting to access the device with the stored image of the face of the authorized user of the device. To ensure the received video of the face of the user attempting to access the device is a real-time video of that user, and not a forgery, the system further receives a first photoplethysmogram (PPG) obtained from a first body part (e.g., a face) of the user attempting to access the device, receives a second PPG obtained from a second body part (e.g., a fingertip) of the user attempting to access the device, and compares the first PPG with the second PPG. The system authenticates the user attempting to access the device based on a successful comparison of (e.g., correlation between, consistency of) the first PPG and the second PPG and based on a successful comparison of the image of the face of the user attempting to access the device with the stored image of the face of the authorized user of the device.

An artificial intelligence (AI) robot includes a body for defining an exterior appearance and containing a medicine to be discharged according to a medication schedule, a support, an image capture unit for capturing an image within a traveling zone to create image information, and a controller for discharging the medicine to a user according to the medication schedule, reading image data of the user to determine whether the user has taken the medicine, and reading image data and biometric data of the user after the medicine-taking to determine whether there is abnormality in the user. The AI robot identifies a user and discharges a medicine matched with the user, so as to prevent errors. The AI robot detects a user's reaction after medicine-taking through a sensor, and performs deep learning, etc. to learn the user's reaction, to determine an emergency situation, etc. and cope with a result of the determination.

Biometric identification methods and apparatuses (including devices and systems) for uniquely identifying one an individual based on wearable garments including a plurality of sensors, including but not limited to sensors having multiple sensing modalities (e.g., movement, respiratory movements, heart rate, ECG, EEG, etc.).

A functional device is disclosed that can collect and process data/information/parameter values from one or more sensors and compares the same with one or more predefined/threshold value to suggest one or more actions and/or generate alerts/messages/suggestions to be performed by one or a combination of remote system, wearer, home automation network, healthcare provider, doctor, caretaker, among other stakeholders. Communication between the functional device, home automation server and a computational server that stores the data is also disclosed.

A system and method for implementing interactive media content is provided. Interactive media content is received for communication to a user through at least wireless earpieces. User biometrics are measured utilizing the wireless earpieces. A user condition associated with the user biometrics is determined. Branching patterns of the interactive media content are modified in response to the user condition. The interactive content may be a game or story.

A system, method and one or more wireless earpieces for authenticating a transaction utilizing one or more wireless earpieces. An indication that the transaction is pending is received by the one or more wireless earpieces. Biometric readings are performed for a user utilizing sensors of the one or more wireless earpieces. The biometric readings are analyzed to determine whether the user is authorized to perform the transaction. The transaction is authenticated in response to determining the biometric readings authorize the user to perform the transaction.

An automatic recognition and classification method for electrocardiogram heartbeat based on artificial intelligence, comprising: processing a received original electrocardiogram digital signal to obtain heartbeat time sequence data and lead heartbeat data; cutting the lead heartbeat data according to the heartbeat time sequence data to generate lead heartbeat analysis data; performing data combination on the lead heartbeat analysis data to obtain a one-dimensional heartbeat analysis array; performing data dimension amplification and conversion according to the one-dimensional heartbeat analysis array to obtain four-dimensional tensor data; and inputting the four-dimensional tensor data to a trained LepuEcgCatNet heartbeat classification model, to obtain heartbeat classification information. The method overcomes the defect that the conventional method only depends on single lead independent analysis for result summary statistics and thus classification errors are more easily obtained, and the accuracy of the electrocardiogram heartbeat classification is greatly improved.

A vehicle in-cabin lighting system includes: an outward gaze guiding section that is provided inside a vehicle cabin at a vehicle front side and at a vehicle width direction outer side of a vehicle seat, and that becomes brighter than its surroundings on activation of an outer side lighting device; and a control section that is configured to determine whether or not an occupant sifting on the vehicle seat has an interest in interacting with another occupant inside the vehicle cabin based on detection of operation of an operation section by the occupant or based on detection of a state of the occupant, and to activate the outer side lighting device so as to make the outward gaze guiding section brighter in a case in which determination is made that there is no interest in interacting.

Image processing systems and methods are provided for authorizing the performance at a computer terminal of an age-restricted activity. An estimated human age is determined based on human characteristics of a structure detected in an image captured at the computer terminal. It is determined whether the structure exhibits at least one liveness characteristic indicating the human characteristics from which the estimated human age is determined have been captured directly from a living human at the computer terminal. A positive determination is made as to whether performance of the age-restricted activity is authorized if the estimated human age meets a predetermined age requirement and the structure is determined to exhibit at least one liveness characteristic, and a negative determination is made if: i) the estimated human age does not meet the predetermined age requirement; and/or ii) the structure is not determined to exhibit at least one liveness characteristic.
