  • Patent number: 12357080
    Abstract: A system and method for monitoring and analyzing activities of a user operating an electric tooth brush having an electric motor. The magnetic field induced by motions of the electric motor can be detected by a sensor array to generate signals. The signals are processed to determine a position of the brush head and a roll angle of the brush head. Based on the position and roll angle of the brush head, the surface of the teeth of the user, which is being brushed by the brush head, can be determined. This operation can be repeated to determine whether all the surfaces of the teeth have been brushed.

  • Patent number: 12300033
    Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying persons utilizing a camera and a wireless transceiver. The wireless transceiver receives wireless packets (e.g., Wi-Fi packets) from one or more mobile devices associated with one or more persons. The channel state information (CSI) is determined based on signals associated with the packets, and first motion characteristics are determined based on the CSI data. Congruently, the camera generates images, and associated image data is received, wherein the image data is associated with the one or more persons. Second motion characteristics are determined based on the image data. The first motion characteristics are matched with the second motion characteristics along with a quantified uncertainty, and the matched motion characteristics are assigned with weights that are based on the second motion characteristics (e.g., image-based). The one or more persons are identified based on the matched motion characteristics and the weights.
