Abstract: A head-mounted device capable of more highly accurately measuring the physical conditions of a wearer as a worker that are necessary for estimating the possibility of heat stroke is provided. A head-mounted device includes an outer shell; a first channel as a gap between a head of a wearer and the outer shell; a second channel provided in the outer shell and connected to the first channel; a fan configured to send air from one of the first channel and the second channel to the other; a salinity sensor configured to measure salt concentration of sweat of the wearer; a first humidity sensor configured to measure an absolute humidity of intake air entering one of the first channel and the second channel; and a second humidity sensor configured to measure an absolute humidity of exhaust air exiting from the other of the first channel and the second channel.

Abstract: An omnidirectional moving device is provided with a vehicle chassis, a vehicle body, a universal coupling, and an attitude stabilizing system. In the vehicle chassis, a plurality of wheels that are capable of moving omnidirectionally are provided. The vehicle body is mounted on the vehicle chassis. The universal coupling connects the vehicle chassis to the vehicle body, and the attitude of the vehicle body relative to the vehicle chassis can be changed via this universal coupling. The attitude stabilizing system causes the vehicle chassis to move in a direction that corresponds to a change in the attitude of the vehicle body, and maintains the attitude stability of the vehicle body.
