Patent number: 11927460Abstract: Diverse types of crew interfaces (400, 430, 450) are provided for outputting visible, audio and tactile information to a pilot for flight control. A unified estimation of the current aircraft state and of a current phase of flight are made (110), based on flight status information. Respective coordinated visible, audio and tactile presentations for the diverse types of crew interfaces are generated, (120) coordinated so that they provide mutually consistent indications of the unified estimation of the current aircraft state, according to the unified estimation of current flight phase. The respective coordinated presentations are output (130) by the diverse types of crew interfaces to the pilot. By coordinating crew interface outputs across sight, sound and touch senses, this can relieve the pilot of workload in interpreting unsynchronised or incoherent outputs from different types of interfaces.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2018Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: BAE SYSTEMS PLCInventors: Charlie Hewitt, Philip Lamb, James Austen Harrison, Antony Kershaw

Publication number: 20210293810Abstract: A user-wearable patch pump system for delivery of insulin or other medicament can include a pump and an attachment portion that attaches the pump to a user's body. The pump can include a drive unit and a disposable cartridge containing a medicament with the drive unit configured to cause the pump to deliver the medicament in the cartridge to the user. The attachment portion can include a retention frame configured to selectively retain the pump therein and an adhesive patch configured to be attached to the user's body. The pump can be selectively attached to the retention frame and used to deliver medicament either through a cannula to an infusion site directly beneath the retention frame or through tubing to an infusion site displaced from the retention frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2021Publication date: September 23, 2021Inventors: Steven B.

Patent number: 10413757Abstract: Methods and systems for coupling ultrasound to the body, including to the head, are disclosed. The system is optionally configured to transmit ultrasound energy for transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation. Couplant assemblies are described that incorporate a semi-solid component that interfaces directly to the user's body and face of the ultrasound transducer. These couplant assemblies can be shaped, molded, or otherwise machined and, in some embodiments, contain one or more liquid, gel, or other non-solid component in an enclosed reservoir of the couplant assembly. Beneficial embodiments of ultrasound coupling assemblies described herein include those that conform to the contour of the user's body (e.g. the user's head for transcranial applications) and can easily be removed without leaving a messy residue. By having solid materials physically contacting the body, no residue is left that requires cleanup.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2015Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: CEREVAST MEDICAL, INC.Inventors: Tomokazu Sato, William J.

Patent number: 9014811Abstract: Methods of modifying a subject's cognitive state by applying transdermal electrical stimulation (TES). In particular, described herein are methods of applying TES using a pair of electrodes each positioned at a particular location on the skin of the subject's head, or the head and neck, to evoke a predetermined cognitive state using a TES applicator. In particular, described herein are methods of enhancing attention, alertness, or mental focus or of enhancing a calm or relaxed mental state by applying high-intensity TES across electrodes positioned on the subject's temple and either the mastoid region or on the subject's neck. The subject may control the application directly and TES may be applied by a portable, including wearable, TES applicator.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2014Date of Patent: April 21, 2015Assignee: thync, inc.Inventors: Sumon K.
