Filed:

Nov 10, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/710488

Inventors:

Robert P. Wong - Huntington NY, US
Thomas J. Cassar - St. James NY, US
Cynthia L. Roth - Massapequa NY, US

Assignee:

Ergonomic Technologies Corporation - Syosset NY

International Classification:

G06N005/00

US Classification:

706 50, 706 45, 706 40

Abstract:

A method and system for facilitating resolution of engineering and business issues is provided which comprises an issue component for identifying the issues to be resolved, an inquiry component for facilitating collection of client information relevant to the issue component to facilitate definition of the issue component, a knowledge base comprising data and information for facilitating assessment of the client information; and a solution base for compiling assessments and recommendations from the knowledge base and for reporting the assessments and recommendations to a client. In addition, the system can include a network for communicating the client information to the knowledge base and for communicating the assessments and recommendations to the client. The knowledge base comprises an artificial intelligence engine for assessing the client information, wherein the artificial intelligence engine is configured for comparing the new issue with an existing issue within a database to determine if similar, and thus provide a recommendation associated with the existing issue, and for breaking down the new issue into smaller components for further comparison if the existing issue is not similar to the new issue to thus provide a suggestion associated with said smaller components. As a result, an optimal set of suggestions and recommendations can be provided for a given engineering or business issue or problem.

Inventors:

Kevin J. Costello - Sea Cliff NY
Chandra Nair - Glen Cove NY
Cynthia Roth - Massapequa NY
Dennis A. Mitchell - Huntington NY

Assignee:

Ergonomic Technologies Corp. - Oyster Bay NY

International Classification:

A61B 5103

US Classification:

600595

Abstract:

A portable biofeedback apparatus and method for simultaneously gathering information regarding more than one type of musculoskeletal stress. The apparatus has at least two different types of user-selectable sensors for converting different kinds of musculoskeletal activities into electrical signals. An analog-to-digital converter samples the electrical signals at predetermined rates. A memory receives and stores the digital signals. A processor centrally controls the collection, sampling, display and transmittal of the digital data. Magnitudes of the digital signals are simultaneously and in real-time graphically portrayed as a function of time.
