An apparatus (1) for treating a body part (5) of a patient (3) is provided. The apparatus comprises a support (7) for at least partially supporting and holding the body part, a manipulator (11) connected to the support for supporting and manoeuvring the support and a controller. The apparatus is configured to determine the spatial position and orientation of the first and second portions relative to each other, to determine, based on that, a first manoeuvring sequence of the body part, and to control the apparatus (1) to operate the manipulator (11) to manoeuvre the support (7) in such a way that the body part, when appropriately positioned on, and possibly held by, the support, is manoeuvred according to at least the first manoeuvring sequence. Further, a method and a storage medium are provided.

A sexual stimulation device comprising: (a) an elongate member comprising a proximal end, and a distal end dimensioned for placement in an orifice of a user; (b) an external stimulation arm comprising a proximal end, a distal end, and an external stimulation surface; and (c) a flexible connecting portion that connects the elongate member to the external stimulation arm at their respective proximal ends; wherein the flexible connecting portion permits movement of the external stimulation arm relative to the elongate member between an open position and a compressed position.
摘要:
In some embodiments, an exoskeleton device for providing gait/movement assistance to users, and more particularly, methods and apparatuses for attaching such devices to a limb of the users, are presented. In some embodiments, the apparatus may comprise a support, a support holder, and a retaining element for retaining the support secured to the support holder at least when the apparatus is in use. In some embodiments, the attachment of the support to the support holder may be configured so as to allow the support a range of translational and/or rotational degrees of motion.
摘要:
A cardiopulmonary resuscitation coordination method is disclosed. The method comprises: identifying a plurality of portable computing devices located within an area around a coordinator, each being associated with a respective user and comprising a communication interface and a sensor component; processing user-attribute information relating to said users; processing device-attribute information relating to the identified devices; for each sensor functionality of a plurality of sensor functionalities, the coordinator assigning a respective sensor functionality to the sensor component of at least one of the identified devices in response to the processed device-attribute information and user-attribute information; the coordinator assigning a cardiopulmonary resuscitation role to at least one of the users in response to the processed device-attribute information and user-attribute information; communicating data acquired by at least one of the sensor components assigned with a sensor functionality to the coordinator; and communicating specific cardiopulmonary resuscitation coordination guidance in response to the at least one assigned cardiopulmonary resuscitation role and the acquired data.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a robotic system useful to unload the object/person from its weight. The robotic system is useful in locomotor rehabilitation programs and allows the manipulation of forces in a three-dimensional space with far lower actuator requirements and a much higher precision than prior-art systems. The apparatus combines passive and active elements to minimize actuation requirements while still keeping inertia to a minimum and control precision to a maximum. It requires minimal actuators and at the same time has a low inertia.
摘要:
Systems and related methods for delivering a stimulus to a pinna of a subject with a stimulator worn on the pinna are described. A wearable stimulation device includes a mechanical, electrical, or other type of stimulator secured to a pinna of a subject. Stimulation may be delivered in response to a sensed signal indicative of a physiological status of the subject, and/or in response to sensed environmental parameters. Stimulation may be delivered in combination with other stimuli or experiences. In an aspect, a stimulator communicates with and/or is controlled by a personal computing device. In some aspects recommendations regarding stimuli and experience are provided via a computing system in communication with the personal computing device or the stimulator.
摘要:
The disclosed embodiments provide skin stimulating devices and methods that address the aging effects of skin at a protein level. Particularly, cyclical mechanical strain is used to regulate specific proteins within the skin, so as to produce specific effects. As a non-limiting example, the disclosed embodiments can be used to increase the production of certain proteins (e.g., hyaluronan synthase 3 (HAS3); fibronectin; tropoelastin; procoll1; integrin, etc.) in the skin, which results in anti-aging effects by increasing epidermal cohesion.
