Patent number: 11561123Abstract: A method for determining a normalized weight of a non-static item is disclosed. Weight data associated with the non-static item is received from a plurality of load cells. A load cell weight for the non-static item is determined based at least in part on the weight data. The load cell weight for the non-static item is received as an input for a machine learning algorithm. The normalized weight for the non-static item is generated as an output for the machine learning algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2021Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: MATEOInventors: Thomas Serval, Gauthier de Rouzé

Publication number: 20220354625Abstract: Tooth brushing monitoring system is disclosed that includes an oral hygiene device with a separate an optical sensor to track positional changes of the oral hygiene device. The optical sensor may alone or in combination with motion sensor data determine position and orientation of an oral hygiene device with respect to a user's mouth. The system may then determine the quality, quantity and location of brushing and provide feedback on the quality of brushing. This feedback provides motivation for users to increase their brushing habits, leading to a decrease in plaque, tooth decay and gingivitis.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2022Publication date: November 10, 2022Applicant: KOLIBREEInventors: Thomas SERVAL, Yann NICOLAS, Samuel LANDAU

Publication number: 20220192346Abstract: A system comprises a frame, a mirror coupled to the frame, an electronic display device coupled to the frame, a camera coupled to the frame, one or more processors, and one or more memory devices. The one or more processors are configured to execute instructions that are stored in the one or more memory devices. The one or more processors executing the instructions causes the system to continuously display, on the electronic display device, a real-time video feed of a user within a field of view of the camera; identify and object within the field of view of the camera; and, subsequent to the identification, modify the continuously displayed real-time video feed based on at least the identified object.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2020Publication date: June 23, 2022Inventors: Ali Mouizina, Thomas Serval

Patent number: 11363971Abstract: A motion tracking element for an oral hygiene element such as a toothbrush. The motion tracking element may be detachably coupled to the oral hygiene element. The motion tracking element may include a body having an outer surface, a portion of the outer surface having a pattern that includes a plurality of indicators with a non-circular shape. The indicators may be flush with and form part of the outer surface. A plurality of visual markers may be located on the outer surface, each of the visual markers having a circular shape. The plurality of visual markers may be formed integrally with the body. A method for estimating a pose of an oral hygiene device may be achieved using the motion tracking element.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2021Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: Colgate-Palmolive CompanyInventors: Vincent El Kouby-Benichou, Olivier Giroud, Thomas Serval, Yann Nicolas
