Patent number: 10238316Abstract: A feedback device determines when a person has placed enough weight upon his/her foot to safely take the next step, and then communicate that information to the person via a haptic device on the person's ankle or an audio, visual and/or vibration feedback display on an application on the person's smart phone. Five sensors in an insole between the person's foot and shoe determine the force of the person's leg. The five sensors in the insole will be positioned under the heel, the fifth metatarsal head, the first metatarsal head, the space between the second metatarsal head and the third metatarsal head, and the hallux (big toe).Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2018Date of Patent: March 26, 2019Assignee: Rehabit LLCInventors: Michael J.

Patent number: 10159427Abstract: A feedback device determines when a person has placed enough weight upon his/her foot to safely take the next step, and then communicate that information to the person via a haptic device on the person's ankle or an audio, visual and/or vibration feedback display on an application on the person's smart phone. Three or more sensors in an insole between the person's foot and shoe determine the force of the person's leg. The force data is sent to a microprocessor where the force data is processed and compared with a baseline. If the processed data exceeds the baseline, the microprocessor will activate the haptic device on the person's ankle to vibrate and/or transmit the processed data through a wireless communications device to an application on a smart phone to activate an audio, visual and/or vibration feedback display on the application. The person will then safely take the next step.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2017Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: Rehabit, LLCInventors: Michael J. Malawey, Thomas H. Lupfer, Patrick M.

Patent number: 8840483Abstract: This disclosure relates to an evaluation device and methods for evaluating the swing of a piece of athletic equipment. The evaluation device may include a microphone, an accelerometer, and a microcontroller configured to detect a stroke and ball strike and track the position of the athletic equipment in three-dimensional space. The evaluation device may also include a radio for wireless transmissions, a battery, and a sound tube connected to the microphone. The evaluation device can be used in conjunction with a host computer to store, and display data gathered by the evaluation device. In some methods, a stroke that is detected from a swing and a ball strike can be determined by comparing signals received from the accelerometer and the microphone to predetermined criteria.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2011Date of Patent: September 23, 2014Assignee: Kinetek SportsInventors: Patrick M.

Patent number: 7607571Abstract: A system is described for managing data and information in a healthcare environment, such as a hospital. A handheld code scanner reads codes and either accepts data, or performs instructions based on the read code. The code scanner wirelessly transmits the codes or data to a central server which acts on the read code to carry out necessary functions. The system is useful for tracking patient data, such as for delivery of medicine. In addition, since the system can carry out instructions, it is useful for allowing healthcare workers to quickly and conveniently perform their duties without the necessity of sitting at a computer terminal.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2004Date of Patent: October 27, 2009Assignee: IntelliDOT CorporationInventors: Patrick M.
