  • Wearable Technologies For Joint Health Assessment
    Publication number: 20180289313
    Abstract: Multi-modal sensing relating to joint acoustic emission and joint bioimpedance. Custom-design analog electronics and electrodes provide high resolution sensing of bioimpedance, microphones and their front-end electronics for capturing sound signals from the joints, rate sensors for identifying joint motions (linear and rotational), and a processor unit for interpretation of the signals. These components are packed into a wearable form factor, which also encapsulates the hardware required to minimize the negative effects of motion artifacts on the signals.
    Type: Application
    Filed: May 14, 2018
    Publication date: October 11, 2018
    Inventors: Omer T. Inan, Michael N. Sawka, Jennifer O. Hasler, Hakan Toreyin, Mindy I. Millard-Stafford, Geza Kogler, Sinan Hersek, Caitlin Teague, Hyeon Ki Jeong, Maziyar Baran Pouyan
