  • Publication number: 20220192527
    Abstract: A wearable device collects a plurality of photoplethysmography (PPG) waveforms from a PPG sensor in the wearable device and collects inertial data associated with subject motion from an inertial sensor in the wearable device. The wearable device processes the inertial data in an assessment processor of the wearable device to determine a data integrity of the plurality of PPG waveforms and, responsive to the determined data integrity, processes the plurality of PPG waveforms in the assessment processor using a neural network comprising thousands of coefficients to generate an assessment of the subject blood pressure.

  • Patent number: 10856813
    Abstract: The methods and apparatuses presented herein determine and/or improve the quality of one or more physiological assessment parameters, e.g., response-recovery rate, based on biometric signal(s) and/or motion signal(s) respectively output by one or more biometric and/or motion sensors. The disclosed methods and apparatuses also estimate a user's stride length based on a motion signal and a determined type of user motion, e.g., walking or running. The speed of the user may then be estimated based on the estimated stride length.

  • Patent number: 7683391
    Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a source of ultraviolet energy, wherein the source is a UV-emitting LED. In an embodiment of the invention, the UV-LED is characterized by a base layer material including a substrate, a p-doped semiconductor material, a multiple quantum well, a n-doped semiconductor material, upon which base material a p-type metal resides and wherein the LED's are provided with a rounded mesa configuration. In a specific embodiment, the p-type metal is positioned upon a rounded mesa, such as a parabolic mesa, formed out of the base structure materials.

  • Patent number: 7119372
    Abstract: A flip chip light emitting diode die (10, 10?, 10?) includes a light-transmissive substrate (12, 12?, 12?) and semiconductor layers (14, 14?, 14?) that are selectively patterned to define a device mesa (30, 30?, 30?). A reflective electrode (34, 34?, 34?) is disposed on the device mesa (30, 30?, 30?). The reflective electrode (34, 34?, 34?) includes a light-transmissive insulating grid (42, 42?, 60, 80) disposed over the device mesa (30, 30?, 30?), an ohmic material (44, 44?, 44?, 62) disposed at openings of the insulating grid (42, 42?, 60, 80) and making ohmic contact with the device mesa (30, 30?, 30?), and an electrically conductive reflective film (46, 46?, 46?) disposed over the insulating grid (42, 42?, 60, 80) and the ohmic material (44, 44?, 44?, 62). The electrically conductive reflective film (46, 46?, 46?) electrically communicates with the ohmic material (44, 44?, 44?, 62).
