Patent number: 12572214Abstract: Systems and methods for biometric analysis are described. In some embodiments, a system may include a wearable device comprising a plurality of electrodes, a gesture control processing circuit, and an ECG processing circuit. A common electrode may be configured to provide signals to both the gesture control processing circuit and the ECG processing circuit. While the system is in a gesture control state, the system may be configured to obtain first biopotential signals using at least the common electrode and convert the first biopotential signals to first biopotential data for use in gesture control. While the system is in the ECG state, the system may be configured to obtain second biopotential signals using at least the common electrode and convert the second biopotential signals to ECG data for use in analyzing a user's heart rhythms.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2024Date of Patent: March 10, 2026Assignee: Pison Technology, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth Stern, Tanya Wang, David Cipoletta, Dexter Ang

Patent number: 12502110Abstract: Systems and methods for gesture control are described. In some embodiments, a system for assessing a physiological state of a user. The system may include the wearable device comprising one or more electrodes configured to be disposed adjacent to an external surface of the skin portion. A first timestamp may be determined. The first timestamp may indicate a first time at which a stimulus is presented to the user. A second timestamp indicating a second time at which the biopotential signals indicate an intention by the user to perform a responsive action may be determined. Based at least on the first timestamp and the second timestamp, determine a subject response time for the user. The subject response time may be compared to a baseline response time for the user to generate an assessment of a physiological state of the user.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2023Date of Patent: December 23, 2025Assignee: Pison Technology, Inc.Inventors: Michael Kowalczyk, Dexter Ang, Henry Valk, David Cipoletta, Xiaofeng Tan, Adam Helbling, Michael Kasparian
