A means for achieving enhanced erection includes a mounting attachment (10) to be placed onto the penis, e.g. in the form of a penis ring of a substantially elastic material. On the mounting attachment (10), one or more rows (14) of miniature vibrator motors (8 ABC) is/are provided, each row comprising at least three motors. For sequential pulsating operation of the motors (8 ABC) of the row(s) (14), an electric power supply arrangement (7) and an electronic control circuit (9) are provided. The control circuit (9) and the power supply arrangement (7) may be positioned on the mounting attachment (10). In one embodiment, piezoelectric foil strips (15 abc) are located underneath the vibrator motors (8 ABC) and are operated in a controlled relation to the motor operation for generating mechanical vibrations with a frequency that is higher than the frequency of the vibrator motors.

A device and a method that permit easy and accurate determination of a walking condition regardless of differences in foot landing points on soles or lengths of legs of a walker are provided. According to this device, a measuring device measures a parameter indicating a displacement amount of a bottom end portion of a leg of the walker. A first storage device stores patterns of plots in a determination space corresponding to parameters and walking conditions of the walker such that they are associated with each other. Furthermore, a generating device generates plots defined in the determination space by parameters measured by the measuring device. Then, a determining device determines walking conditions of the walker on the basis of the patterns of the plots stored in conjunction with the walking conditions by the first storage device and the patterns of the plots generated by the generating device.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for preventing osteopenia, promoting bone tissue growth, ingrowth, and healing of bone tissue includes the step of and means for applying a mechanical load to the bone tissue at a relatively low level on the order of between about 50 and about 500 microstrain, peak-to-peak, and at a relatively high frequency in the range from about 10 and about 100 Hz. Mechanical loading at such strain levels and such frequencies has been found to prevent bone loss and enhance new bone formation.

A compression depth calculation system is configured to calculate the compression depth which is a magnitude of depression of the compressed object generated by the compression and includes a measuring apparatus to be mounted on the object, and a compression depth calculating apparatus is configured to calculate the compression depth on the basis of information from the measuring apparatus. The compression depth calculation apparatus calculates a coefficient of transformation on the basis of a second-order differential waveform created for the information acquired from a magnetic sensor and acceleration information acquired from an acceleration sensor, creates a displacement waveform of a compressed portion by multiplying the acquired information by the coefficient of transformation, and calculates the compression depth on the basis of the displacement waveform.

摘要:
A wearable navigation system for blind or visually impaired persons with wireless assistance. The system has one or more than one camera to capture images from the surroundings of the blind user. A server uses the images captured by the camera along with a global positioning and specialized satellite imagery to determine a route for the blind user to follow. The user uses an audio input/output transceiver to enter and hear commands from the server. The system also has a wireless communications device so that the blind user can ask for remote assistance if there is a situation that the server cannot process.
