Abstract: Disclosed are a system, a method, and a program for initializing an attachment location of a measurement sensor. The method of initializing an attachment location of at least one measurement sensor includes requesting selection of the measurement sensor that is attached to a specific body unit (S100); recognizing identification information of the measurement sensor, which agrees with a selection manipulation of the measurement sensor (S200); matching the identification information with the body unit (S300); and determining sensing data received from the measurement sensor, which corresponds to the identification information, as motion data of the body unit. According to the inventive concept, because attachment locations of a plurality of measurement sensors are initialized, a terminal may accurately calculate a posture or motion of the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for the monitoring of patient motion via the detection of changes in capacitance, as measured using a capacitance position sensing electrode array. The changes in capacitance may be processed to determine a corresponding positional offset, for example, using a calibration data set relating capacitance to offset for each electrode of the array. The detected positional offset may be employed to provide feedback to a surgeon or operator of a medical device, or directly to the medical device for the control thereof. A medical procedure may be interrupted when the positional offset is detected to exceed a threshold. Alternatively, the detected positional offset may be employed to manually or automatically reconfigure a medical device to compensate for the detected change in position. Various configurations of capacitive position sensing devices are disclosed, including embodiment in incorporating capacitive sensing electrodes with a mask or other support structure.

Abstract: Systems for studying motion are provided. A computing device [10] has a processor [20], an accelerometer [11], a gyroscope [12], a magnetometer [13] and storage/computer readable media [30] in communication with one another. The computing device [10] can sense, classify, qualify and/or quantify real-time motion data of a moving target against classified initial motion data in a motion library [32]. Motion data is processed as particularized units of motion. The computing device [10] may use machine learning algorithms for “training” and “learning.” The computing device [10] can be used in many industries, including the fitness industry, where computing device [10] can be used with wearable technology.

Abstract: There is a problem that a signal obtained by an optical sensor contains many noises and a chewing action cannot be precisely detected. A chewing detecting device includes: earphone-type external auditory meatus sensors 11, 12 which have a pair of a light emitting element 34 and a light receiving element 35 and in which the light receiving element 35 receives reflective light of light emitted by the light emitting element 34 into an external auditory meatus to output a voltage signal corresponding to a light receiving amount; association processing means 51 associating an output signal of the external auditory meatus sensors 11, 12 with a motion of a jaw, and outputing a chewing signal showing that the jaw performs chewing; and chewing section sensing means 52 which determines whether or not an output of the external auditory meatus sensors 11, 12 is based on the motion of the jaw (within a chewing section), and which invalidates the output of the association processing means 51 when the output of the external auditory meatus sensors 11, 12 is not based on the motion of the jaw (without the chewing section).

Abstract: A capacitive sensing system (1) which includes an electrical charge providing unit (4) like an electret foil for providing a permanent electrical charge at a sensing site (6) of the object (3) and a capacitive sensor (2) including a sensing electrode (5) for generating a sensing signal by capacitively sensing the object (3) at the sensing site (6) of the object (3). By providing a permanent electrical charge at the sensing site (6) of the object (3), the bias between the object (3) and the sensing electrode (5) of the capacitive sensor (2) is intentionally preferentially made large, thereby increasing the sensitivity towards mechanical motions. The resulting sensing signal substantially caused by these mechanical motions between the object (3) and the sensing electrode (5) is generally larger than a signal generated substantially by an electrophysiological field.

Abstract: The disclosure provides systems and methods of use pertaining to precise measurements of middle ear mechanics to aid physicians in the determination of pre-operative, intraoperative, and post-repair stiffness of the ossicular chain to assist in the diagnosis and treatment and/or repair of all types of conductive hearing loss. One embodiment provides a handheld diagnostic tool having a load cell operably coupled between a linear actuator and a rigid probe configured to rest against the ossicular chain. When the actuator displaces the load cell and the rigid probe a predetermined distance in an oscillating manner, the load cell measures a force required to displace the ossicular chain a corresponding distance. Force and displacement data is sent to a processing element, which calculates a stiffness of the ossicular chain and reports information regarding the stiffness to a display. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Upon feature extraction and classification, vibrational data acquired in respect of each swallowing event is classified as indicative of one of normal or possibly impaired swallowing.
