  • Publication number: 20170055903
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and devices relating to electrode holding arrangements for bioelectric use. An example electrode holding arrangement includes a piece of flexible material configured to be fixed to a body part and at least one electrode spring element. The at least one electrode spring element is created by cutting out a certain geometric profile from the piece of flexible material. When the piece of flexible material is fixed to the body part having a body tissue surface, and an electrode is attached to the at least one electrode spring element and is positioned on the body tissue surface so that the body tissue surface generates a first force that makes the electrode spring element protrude outside a horizontal plane of the piece of flexible material, the at least one electrode spring element generates a second force that presses the electrode against the body tissue surface.

  • Patent number: 8517836
    Abstract: According to one aspect, the invention provides an interactive gaming system comprising at least one tile, each tile comprising a pressure sensor, a controller being for generating a control signal associated with the pressure exerted on the tile and tile communicator for wirelessly sending the control signal to a control unit. The system further comprises a control unit comprising control unit communicator arranged for wirelessly receiving the control signal from a tile, a game controller comprising a game memory and an interpreter for interpreting the control signal in the light of a stored game and a signal generator for generating signals associated with the interpreted control signal. A tile further comprises an orientation sensor for identifying on which side of the tile the pressure is exerted. In one aspect the present invention provides a more versatile gaming system.

  • Patent number: 8400399
    Abstract: The invention relates to a location based gaming device. The gaming device comprises an elongated handheld body and a location control unit arranged in the body. The location control unit outputs location data. A light unit is arranged at a distal side of the body. A controller is adapted to control said light unit, the controller comprising a memory to store track data. The controller is arranged to change a light characteristic between an on track and an off track mode depending on a proximity function between the track data and the compass directional data and/or location data. Accordingly a device is provided that can provide intuitive direction indications, which may be interpretable by players of younger ages.
