Patent number: 10478065Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for monitoring in real time the physiological status of one or more subjects, especially subject engaged in potentially hazardous or dangerous activities. Systems include wearable items with one or more physiological sensors and a local data unit (LDU) operatively coupled to the sensors. The LDUs digitize and filter sensor data, extract physiological parameters, determine abnormal or not acceptable physiological conditions, and communicate to external monitoring facilities. The external facilities display status and data concerning monitored subjects. In preferred embodiments, communication between the LDUs and the external monitoring facilities dynamically adjusts to the condition of the subjects and to system changes such as subjects and external facilities entering and leaving and/or moving from place to place. The invention also provides program products for performing this invention's methods.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2016Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: adidas AGInventors: Andrew Behar, Jeff Cobb, Alex Derchak, Barry Keenan, Dave Darnall

Patent number: 8790255Abstract: This invention provides user interfaces that more intuitively display physiological data obtained from physiological monitoring of one or more subjects. Specifically, the user interfaces of this invention create and display one or more avatars having behaviors guided by physiological monitoring data. The monitoring data is preferably obtained when the subject is performing normal tasks without substantial restraint. This invention provides a range of implementations that accommodate user having varying processing and graphics capabilities, e.g., from handheld electronic devices to ordinary PC-type computers and to systems with enhanced graphics capabilities.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2011Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: adidas AGInventor: Andrew Behar

Patent number: 7267652Abstract: The present invention is directed to improved systems and methods for processing respiratory signals derived generally from respiratory plethysmography, and especially from respiratory inductive plethysmographic sensors mounted on a garment for ambulatory recording. The systems and methods provide improved signal filtering for artifact rejection, improved calibration of sensor data to produce outputs indicative of lung volumes. Further, this invention provides improved systems and methods directed to processing lung volume signals, however measured or derived, to provide improved determination of respiratory parameters and improved recognition of selected respiratory events.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2004Date of Patent: September 11, 2007Assignee: VivoMetrics, Inc.Inventors: Michael Coyle, Desmond B. Keenan, P. Alexander Derchak, Marvin Sackner, Frank Wilhelm, Keith Gilroy, Emerance M. Gummels, Dana Michael Inman, Paul Kennedy, Mark Mitchnick, Andrew Behar
