Abstract: Embodiments described in this application relate generally to a system, an apparatus and/or methods for manufacturing electrodes by infusion electrolyte into compacted electrode materials. In some embodiments, a working electrode materials can be produced using an infusion mixing and manufacturing process. In some embodiments, a single-sided finished electrode can be produced directly from a dry powder mixture using an infusion mixing and manufacturing process. In some embodiments, a double-sided finished electrode can be produced directly from a dry powder mixture using an infusion mixing and manufacturing process. The electrodes produced by an infusion mixing and manufacturing process generally perform better than those produced by non-infusion processes.

Abstract: Systems and methods for training models to predict dense correspondences across images such as human images. A model may be trained using synthetic training data created from one or more 3D computer models of a subject. In addition, one or more geodesic distances derived from the surfaces of one or more of the 3D models may be used to generate one or more loss values, which may in turn be used in modifying the model's parameters during training.

Abstract: The present invention includes an apparatus and method for blood pressure trend determination of a subject comprising: a housing; at least one of a photoplethysmographic (PPG) sensor or a magnetic sensor in or on the housing and adapted to be worn by the subject, wherein the PPG/magnetic sensor uses a pulse oximeter to measure changes in skin light absorption; a processor for receiving a signal from the at least one of the PPG sensor or the magnetic sensor measurements, wherein the processor comprises a non-transitory computer readable medium having instruction stored thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: measure a trend analysis results to determine the blood pressure trend over a time period; and an input/output device that at least one of stores, displays, or transmits blood pressure trend of the subject.

Abstract: The present invention includes systems and methods for preventing negative interaction between patients with dementia in a pre-determined area comprising: positioning a plurality of wireless communication devices at specific, known locations in the pre-determined area; providing each patient with dementia with a wearable medical device; providing a patient database; and using a processor in communication with the patient database and the plurality of wireless communication devices, wherein the processor calculates a position in the pre-determined area for each patient, and wherein the processor displays an alert when a movement of two patients that are in the patient database having known negative interaction are approaching each other within a line-of-sight or within a pre-determined distance.

Abstract: A biometric device configured to be attached to a portion of a body of a user measures biometric data of the user. The device includes an optical emitter, a wavelength filter, an optical sensor and a processor, for sending a light to the body of a user, receiving light received from the user, filtering and processing it to measure biometric data of the user, including for example, heart rate and blood flow rate. In addition, the biometric device may include other sensors, such as a galvanic skin response sensor, an ambient temperature sensor, skin temperature, motion sensor, etc., to enable the biometric device to measure arousal or conductivity changing events, ambient temperature, user temperature and motion associated with the user. Additionally, information from each sensor may be used to further filter noise in one or more signals received by the sensors to provide biometric data to the user.

Abstract: At least one request for a service (504) is received at a central processing system (104) from at least one thin client home device (106). Processing required to support the requested service is determined (615) based on the at least one request. At least one local processor is selected (617) from a set of local processors, in response to determining that the processing can be provided locally, to perform the processing based upon the processing required to support the service. In response to determining that the service cannot be provided locally, a remote service provider associated with the requested service is identified and data for the service from the remote service provider is requested (618). The processed data is transmitted over the network (102) to the at least one thin client home device (106).
