Abstract: Health information for a woman can be used to predict timing of events related to the woman's menstrual cycle. If available, historical cycle information for a woman can be used to predict upcoming cycle events, such as the start and stop of menstruation. To improve the accuracy of those predictions, one or more health metrics are monitored for the woman that can be correlated with the menstrual cycle. These can include, for example, the resting heart rate (RHR), blood oxygen concentration (SpO2) level, and hemoglobin concentration, among other such options. The metrics are monitored over time to determine patterns that can be correlated with menstrual cycle. This information can then be used to update the predictive model, as well as to update individual event predictions. Information about the predictions, and updates to the predictions, can be surfaced accordingly.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a ring-shaped wearable device for detecting biometrics with a light source and a photodetector directed towards a digit wearing the ring-shaped device. The ring can thus detect oxygen saturation of a wearer based on light transmitted through the wearer's finger. The ring can include power saving measures to extend the battery life. A motion sensor can help determine opportune moments for data collection such as when the wearer is still. The motion sensor can be used to remove noise from the data caused by motion. After data is collected or during data collection, the ring can wirelessly communicate the data to another portable electronic device such as a phone or watch.

Abstract: Systems and devices of the present disclosure provide automated detection and tracking of carbon monoxide inhalation through non-invasive optical spectroscopy. A wearable device includes a light source coupled to the base and directing light towards a subject and a photodetector coupled to the base to receive light emitted by the light source through or reflected the subject. The light source emits light at a wavelength spectrum corresponding to a carboxyhemoglobin absorption spectrum and an oxyhemoglobin absorption spectrum. Biometric circuitry is coupled to the photodetector to receive a signal from the photodetector and process the signal to determine an intensity of the wavelengths present in the light received at the photodetector. The intensity of the wavelengths is indicative of a level of carbon monoxide inhalation associated with the subject.

Abstract: A battery charging system includes a first charge source for connection to a first engine and at least a second charge source for connection to at least a second engine. A first battery is connected to the first charge source. At least a second battery is connected to the second charge source. At least a third battery is provided and is connected to a load. A switch is adapted in the first mode of operation to connect the third battery to the first charge source, and in a second mode of operation to connect the third battery to the second charge source. In a third mode of operation, the switch can isolate the third battery from the first and second charge sources as a fail-safe, and provide an alarm of this status. The invention is particularly adapted for use in marine vessels to prevent start batteries from discharging to a point where the voltage is insufficient to start an engine. A switch assembly and a method according to the invention are also disclosed.
