Abstract: An insertable light-dispensing catheter device, comprising a shaft including a proximal and distal end, a light guide extending through the shaft, and a mirror displaceably extendable from the catheter into a position where the mirror receives and reflects light emitted from the light guide. The mirror can be in the form of a coating on an inflatable balloon; and the balloon, when inflated, can press a patch against a defect (e.g., a ventricular septical defect), while the light cures an adhesive that binds the patch to the structure with the defect, thereby remedying the defect.

Abstract: A multi-segment reinforced actuator includes (a) a soft actuator body that defines a chamber and (b) a plurality of distinct reinforcement structures on or in respective segments of the soft actuator body. First and second reinforcement structures are respectively configured to produce a first and second actuation motions, respectively, in first and second segments of the soft actuator body when fluid flows into or out of the chamber. The actuation motions are selected bending, extending, expansion, contraction, twisting, and combinations thereof; and the first actuation motion differs from the second actuation motion. The actuator can be used, e.g., to facilitate bending of the thumb with corresponding bending, extending, expansion, contraction, and twisting actuation motions.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting overstride in runners include measuring, using an inertial measurement unit affixed to a shank of a person, an acceleration and an angle of the shank during a stride, monitoring, using a microprocessor, the shank acceleration measurements to detect an acceleration profile indicative of the corresponding foot making initial contact with the ground during the stride, determining, using the microprocessor, the corresponding shank angle at initial contact from the shank angle measurements, comparing, using the microprocessor, the shank angle at initial contact to a threshold shank angle, and identifying, using the microprocessor, an overstride of the corresponding leg if the shank angle at initial contact exceeds the threshold shank angle.
Abstract translation: 用于检测跑步者跨越的方法和系统包括使用固定在人的一个柄上的惯性测量单元来测量在步幅期间的柄的加速度和角度，使用微处理器来监测柄加速度测量以检测加速度 表示在步幅期间相应的脚与地面初始接触的位置，使用微处理器确定从柄角度测量开始的初始接触处的相应的柄角度，将使用微处理器的初始接触处的柄角与阈值进行比较 并且如果初始接触处的柄角度超过阈值柄角度，则使用微处理器识别对应腿部的跨越。

Abstract: A wearable device includes at least one soft actuator body incorporated into the device and defining a chamber. A fluid connector is positioned and configured to provide a path for fluid flow into and out of the chamber. A control system is connected with the soft actuator body and comprises a pneumatic or hydraulic pump, valves, and a microcontroller and is configured to control fluid flow through the fluid connector into and out of the chamber to produce at least one actuation motion selected from bending, extending, stiffening, expansion, contraction, twisting, and combinations thereof in the soft actuator body. At least one sensor, including a motion sensor, is incorporated into the device and is in communication with the microcontroller, which is configured to control the fluid flow based on communications from the at least one sensor, including the motion sensor, and to thereby control actuation of the soft actuator body.

Abstract: An insertable catheter device includes a shaft including a proximal end and a distal end, an expandable balloon, and an actuator configured to expand and retract the expandable balloon. The actuator includes a fluid conduit that extends through the shaft and is coupled with the expandable balloon to enable inflation and retraction of the expandable balloon via injection or withdrawal of a fluid to or from the expandable balloon via the fluid conduit. The expandable balloon is displaceably retractable into the shaft and extendable from the shaft. A fluid pump is coupled with the fluid conduit to pump the fluid through the fluid conduit. A patch is positioned to be displaced by the expandable balloon when the expandable balloon is inflated, and the expandable balloon is displaceably retractable into the shaft and displaceably extendable from the shaft.
