Publication number: 20230181060Abstract: A method and apparatus are for determining a medical biomarker indicative of a neurodegenerative disease. The method includes receiving motion data from a sensor held or mounted for rotation with a body part of the user during a repeated rotational motion of the body part. The motion data are provided relative to a frame of reference associated with the sensor. The motion data are processed to identify orientation in the frame of reference associated with the sensor of primary, secondary, and tertiary axes of rotation for the motion of the body part of the user, each of the primary, secondary and tertiary axes being mutually perpendicular to one another. A medical biomarker is extracted by analysing the rotational motion of the body part of the user about the primary, secondary and tertiary axes.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2021Publication date: June 15, 2023Inventors: Peter John KELLY, Robert Davis ELLIS

Patent number: 11556587Abstract: An audio matching technique generates audio fingerprints from a captured audio signal. Coarse and Fine fingerprints are generated from the captured audio. The coarse fingerprint is used to match with a set of coarse fingerprints stored in a database to identify a subset of possibly matching database entries. The fine fingerprint is then used to perform a detailed comparison with fine fingerprints associated with the subset of possibly matching database entries in order to find a match for the captured audio signal.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2021Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: Intrasonics S.à.r.lInventors: Jerome Schalkwijk, Peter John Kelly

Patent number: 11397193Abstract: A method and apparatus are for movement analysis. The apparatus and method receive acceleration data from an accelerometer (or measurements from other motion sensors) that is carried by a user. The acceleration data is divided into epochs and a determination is made as to whether the user is walking or running within each epoch. Consecutive epochs in which the user is found to be walking may be concatenated to determine periods of time during which the user is walking or running. An initial estimate of the time that the user starts to walk or run and stops walking or running are determined for each period of walking. An iterative optimization process is then performed to determine accurate start and stop times for the period of walking or running.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2020Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignee: Koneksa Health Inc.Inventors: Peter John Kelly, Robert David Ellis, Chengrui Huang

Patent number: 11307050Abstract: An apparatus and method determine movement information for a user that carries an accelerometer whilst moving. The apparatus receives acceleration data from the accelerometer defined relative to a frame of reference of the accelerometer. A transformation is determined and applied to the acceleration data or to data derived from the acceleration data to determine acceleration data is a user frame of reference that includes a user direction of travel and a side to side direction transverse to the user direction of travel. The acceleration data or data derived from the acceleration data is analyzed to determine a time period corresponding either to a user stride period or to a step period as the user is walking or running; and information about accelerations in the side to side direction are used to disambiguate whether the determined time period corresponds to the user stride period or to the user step period.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2020Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: Koneksa Health Inc.Inventors: Peter John Kelly, Robert David Ellis, Chengrui Huang
