Abstract: A system for scoring and displaying a health metric of a first user includes processing circuitry configured to provide a gamified prompt to the first user via a display. The processing circuitry is further configured to obtain a first measurement of the health metric of the first user from a measurement device. The measurement device configured to obtain the first measurement of the health metric of the first user. The processing circuitry is further configured to generate a first normalized score by normalizing the first measurement of the health metric of the first user relative to a plurality of measurements of the health metric of a first population of individuals. The first user is a member of the first population of individuals. The processing circuitry is further configured to provide the first normalized score to the display as game results.

Abstract: A method and structure receives a desired rotational speed and/or step frequency for an electric motor. If the desired rotational speed is above a predetermined limit, the method performs closed-loop mode control of coil current of the electric motor by varying the average voltage supplied to the electric stepper motor according to observed feedback current from the current feedback loop connected to the electric stepper motor. To the contrary, if the desired rotational speed is not above the predetermined limit, the method performs open-loop mode control of coil current of the electric stepper motor by setting the average voltage supplied to the electric stepper motor according to values computed from the step frequency, irrespective of the observed feedback current from the current feedback loop.
