  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF THE BIOMECHANICAL RISK FROM MANUAL HANDLING OF LOADS
    Publication number: 20230277086
    Abstract: A system and method for assessing biomechanical risk in the context of handling heavy loads in workplaces. The system and method are applicable during a normal working activity for acquisitions lasting a work shift. The acquired data are then analysed in relation to regulatory references and international standards for the assessment of the biomechanical risk from manual handling of loads.

  • METHODS TO ESTIMATE THE BLOOD PRESSURE AND THE ARTERIAL STIFFNESS BASED ON PHOTOPLETHYSMOGRAPHIC (PPG) SIGNALS
    Publication number: 20210030372
    Abstract: A method can estimate the blood pressure and the arterial stiffness based on photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals. Algorithms can be based on PPG signals to analyze the cardiovascular condition of a person by estimating cardiovascular parameters. A method can measure one or more cardiovascular parameters in a subject based on PPG signals.

  • Device for conditioning balance and motor co-ordination
    Patent number: 7867140
    Abstract: A device for conditioning the balance and motor co-ordination of a user (2) comprises a system (3) for acquisition of information relative to the kinematics of at least one part (4) of the body of the user (2), a processing interface (9) connected to the acquisition system (3) to encode the information in a signal, a pair of earphones (12, 13) operating between the processing interface (9) and the user (2), to feed the user the signal suitably defined by a stereophonic sound which can be transmitted in an audio channel.
