Abstract: An apparatus for detecting sleep disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea, includes a housing insertable into an ear canal of a subject. A sensor disposed within the housing measures a position of the subject's head relative to an axis of gravity. A transducer is responsive to the sensor and is capable of creating a stimulus detectable by the subject under certain conditions. In various embodiments, a controller receives signals corresponding to a pitch angle and a roll angle of the subject's head measured by the sensor, determines if the pitch and roll angles correspond to a sleep apnea inducing position, and causes the transducer to generate a stimulus upon determining that the subject's head is in the sleep apnea inducing position more than a predetermined threshold number of times. Various parameters of the stimulus may be modified with successive stimulus generation until a non-sleep apnea inducing position is detected.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media for initiating a recovery mode to execute a recovery mode procedure is discussed. The system may include a main processor, an embedded controller, timer circuitry, and recovery circuitry. The recovery circuitry may be configured to receive an indication to execute a recovery mode procedure and, in response to receiving the indication to execute the recovery mode procedure, to trigger a first time period and a second time period. The timer circuitry may be configured to shut off the embedded controller for the first time period, wherein when the first time period expires, the embedded controller is further configured to boot from embedded controller recovery code and shut off the main processor for the second time period, wherein when the second time period expires, the main processor may be configured to boot from main processor recovery code and execute the recovery mode procedure.
