Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for autonomous, semi-autonomous, and assisted manual application of a cosmetic style to a portion of skin (e.g., skin, hair, eyebrow) of a subject. A cosmetic deposition device includes an applicator component with a plurality of applicator nozzles and/or a movable applicator nozzle, a position sensor, and a reservoir for compositions for the cosmetic style. The device detects its position relative to the portion of skin and automatically corrects the deposition process with selective activation of one or more applicator nozzles of the plurality of applicator nozzles or selective movement of the movable applicator nozzle. These approaches enable automatic correction of application of the composition in real time.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for autonomous, semi-autonomous, and assisted manual application of a cosmetic style to a portion of skin (e.g., skin, hair, eyebrow) of an individual. A cosmetic deposition device includes an applicator component, a position sensor, and a reservoir for compositions for the cosmetic style. A display of the cosmetic deposition device represents the portion of skin as a guide segment, and represents the applicator component as a visual indicator relative to the guide segment based on the position sensor. The depiction of the visual indicator responds to changes in the position of the applicator component relative to the portion of the biological surface to visually guide the individual to accurately apply the cosmetic style, and a feedback device alerts the individual if the application deviates from the portion of the biological surface. These approaches enable the individual to correct application of the composition in real time.

Abstract: A system enables management of dispensable units by supporting functions such as retrieval, scheduled distribution, analysis, and notifications. To this end, a dispensable retrieval mechanism may be programmed to carry out blind retrievals of dispensable units using a retrieval strategy with a predetermined sequence of retrieval attempts (e.g., fixed or varying two-dimensional retrieval patterns), which may be open loop or closed loop. Techniques may also include the identification of dispensable units through optical sensors and weight measurement devices that can detect, e.g., a texture, a shape, and a size of dispensable units. Such identification can be used to program retrieval attempts by a retrieval robot and in the formulation of the retrieval pattern. Additionally, networked notification systems for dispensable units can be used for updating rules or schedules related to the dispensable units, or alerting users and remote resources of any potential misuse or hazards of the dispensable units.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer-implemented method of presenting an achievable eyebrow is provided. A computing system receives an indication of an eyebrow mimetic for a subject. The computing system positions the eyebrow mimetic on an image of a face of the subject. The computing system determines an achievable eyebrow by determining one or more modifications to a bare eyebrow of the subject within maximum modification parameters to make the bare eyebrow more like the eyebrow mimetic. The computing system generates a presentation of the achievable eyebrow.
