Abstract: Individual information about a person's body part is obtained. The body part is defined to have reference points. A geometrical part is extended between those reference points, and characteristics of the geometrical part as so extended are determined. These characteristics are used as minutae to compare against other body parts.

Abstract: A body scanning measurement, typing and profiling apparatus and method utilizing microwave energy. Microwaves are used to measure the size and shape of an individual. An array of miniaturized transmitting antennas direct RF energy to a similarly sized array of receiving antennas. Microwaves are directed toward an object, such as a human being, to be measured and the unabsorbed energy of the microwaves transmitted is measured and converted to a signal representative of the size and shape of the object being measured. A computer processor generates vital body measurements and stores such measurements for future use.

Abstract: A wrist worn battery charging system is disclosed which may be utilized to power or charge the batteries of portable devices, such as wrist worn PDA's, wrist worn Cell-Phones, wrist worn PC's, wrist worn walkie-talkies, wrist worn MP3 players, or other electronic devices which are battery powered and worn on the body of the user. The battery charger operates by turning the motion of the user's arm into electrical energy by the action of a miniature D.C. generator. The output voltage may be used to trickle charge a battery, or supply energy necessary to sustain power for the operation of a number of portable devices. The system is sealed and encapsulated to prolong its' useful life and disguise its' appearance.

Abstract: A person monitoring system that may determine personal characteristics and compare them to other characteristics without necessarily recognizing a specific individual corresponding to those characteristics. An embodiment may use a first array of focused microwave transmitting antennas driven by a microwave transmitting electronics, producing microwave signals for the first array. A second array of focused microwave receiving antennas may have each antenna of said second array being focused and pointed to receive a microwave transmission from a specific antenna of the first array. A controller determines pixels of the sillouette of the monitored subject, as pixels from the microwave antennas. Parameters of human body shape are determined, and used as a profile that can be monitored.
