Assignee:
HI LLC - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
G16H 50/30 G16H 50/20 G16H 10/60 A61B 5/00
Abstract:
A non-invasive self-autonomous system and method of optimizing a lifestyle regimen of a person containing a combination of lifestyle variables is provided. At least one value of the combination of lifestyle variables is repeatedly modified, thereby creating different variations of the combination of lifestyle variables respectively having different sets of values. The different variations of the combination of lifestyle variables are sequentially administered to the person. Physiological activity of the person is detected in response to the administration of the combination of lifestyle variables to the person. Sets of qualitative indicators of an aspect of a lifestyle of the person are derived from the detected physiological activity of the person. The lifestyle regimen of the person is optimized based on the different variations of the combination of lifestyle variables and the derived sets of qualitative indicators.

International Classification:
A61B 5/1455 A61B 5/00
Abstract:
An illustrative optical measurement device includes a light source configured to emit light pulses directed at a target. The optical measurement device further includes a detector configured to detect arrival times for photons of the light pulses after the photons are scattered by the target. The optical measurement device further includes a processing unit configured to generate, based on the arrival times of the photons at the detector, histogram data associated with the target. The processing unit is further configured to determine, based on the histogram data, an absolute optical property associated with the target. The processing unit is further configured to determine, based on the absolute optical property, a blood oxygenation level of the user, and perform an operation based on the blood oxygenation level.

International Classification:
A61B 5/00 G01N 33/483
Abstract:
A wearable module assembly for an optical measurement system includes a first wearable module, a second wearable module, and a connector. The first and second wearable modules each include a light source configured to emit a light pulse toward a target within a body of a user, a housing that houses the light source and the plurality of detectors and includes a substantially hexagonal surface that faces a surface of the body of the user when the wearable module assembly is worn by the user, and a plurality of detectors each positioned at a fixed distance from the first light source and each configured to detect a set of photons included in the light pulse after the set of photons are scattered by the target. The connector directly connects the first wearable module and the second wearable module at mutually-facing side surfaces of the respective housings.

International Classification:
A61B 5/00
Abstract:
An illustrative optical measurement system includes a signal generator configured to generate a signal and a processing unit configured to direct the signal generator to apply the signal to a TDC included in the optical measurement system and generate, based on timestamp symbols recorded by the TDC in response to the signal, characterization data representative of a nonlinearity of the TDC.
Systems And Methods For Noise Removal In An Optical Measurement System
- Los Angeles CA, US Alejandro Ojeda - Culver City CA, US Katherine Perdue - Los Angeles CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
Abstract:
An illustrative optical measurement system includes a light source configured to emit light directed at a target within a user, the target covered by a superficial layer, and an array of photodetectors configured to detect photons of the light after the light is scattered. The system further includes a processor configured to record, during a first and a second time period, a first and a second set of timestamp symbols, respectively, based on a first and a second subset of the array of photodetectors detecting a first subset of the photons that are scattered by the superficial layer and a second subset of the photons that are scattered by the target and the superficial layer, respectively. The processor is further configured to filter, based on the first set of histogram data, the second set of histogram data, and determine, based on the filtering, histogram data corresponding to the target.
