    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to an apparatus including a scale and external circuitry. The scale collects signals from a plurality of users and associates the respective collected signals with a user among the plurality. The scale further verifies a biometric using the collected signals and a user profile corresponding to the user, removes portions of user data that identifies the user, adds an identifier to the user data indicative of an identity of the scale and the user, and outputs at least a portion of the user data to external circuitry. The external circuitry receives the user data, replaces the identifier with an alias ID, and stores the user data with the alias ID in a first database and identification of which scale and user that corresponds to the alias ID in a second database.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to an apparatus including a scale and external circuitry. The scale includes a platform for a user to stand on, and data-procurement circuitry for collecting signals indicative of the user's identity and cardio-physiological measurements while the user is standing on the platform. The scale includes processing circuitry to process data obtained by the data-procurement circuitry and therefrom generate cardio-related physiologic data, and an output circuit to send user data from the scale for reception at a remote location. The external circuitry receives and validates the user data as concerning a specific user associated with a user ID and determine at least one physiologic parameter of the user using the user data. Further, the external circuitry derives additional health information corresponding to the user data based on categories of interest and outputs the additional health information to the scale for display.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the instant disclosure are sensing and/or providing estimates for blood pressure or cardiac output by using time-synchronous communication (or correlation) between two sensors. Specific embodiments concern an arrangement of devices including a time-synchronous circuit and a sensor. The sensor is configured to obtain, at or near a lower-body/extremity location of the user, time-related data indicative of speed or transit time of a propagating pressure wave while the wave travels in an artery and down a leg of the user. The time-synchronous circuit is configured to correlate information corresponding to or derived from the time-related data in a time synchronous manner with other cardiovascular information. The cardiovascular information corresponds to or is derived from hemodynamic output from the user by another sensor located at or near an upper-extremity location or lower-extremity of the user.

    Abstract: Weighing scale apparatuses (devices and systems) and methods are implemented using a variety of biometric-based devices and methods. According to one such implementation, a weighing scale uses a base unit to integrate a support structure, a display, and circuitry to measure and determine the physiological parameters of the user, including a user-weight metric. The support structure includes a platform region that utilizes sensor circuitry to collect physiological data from the user, which is then processed by user-targeted circuitry to determine the physiological parameters (e.g., weight and heart-related measurements) of the user. Such parameters are then associated with the user and saved to a data-access circuit, and also forwarded to a display which communicates the physiological parameters among other information to the user through the platform region; the display encompassing substantially all of the platform region, including the region(s) upon which the user would stand for weight measurements.
