Abstract: A biofeedback stimulation device includes a user interface for providing at least one input signal. A processor generates at least one control signal responsive to the at least one input signal. Circuitry within the biofeedback stimulation device enables application of both an electric stimulation signal and a light stimulation signal to a body of an individual. The application of the electrical stimulation signal and the light stimulation signal are controlled by the at least one control signal provided by the processor.

Abstract: A method for using electrical stimulation to achieve a physiological reaction in an individual using an electronic stimulation device is described. The electronic stimulation device is used to apply a waveform to the individual. The waveform includes at least a plurality of packets. Each of the plurality of packets includes a plurality of pulses. A plurality of variables associated with the waveform are controlled to provide a waveform shape for achieving the physiological reaction in the individual.

Abstract: A biofeedback electronic stimulation device includes a processor for generating a first control signal and a plurality of second control signals responsive to at least one input signal. Transformer circuitry generates a stimulation signal including packets of at least one pulse responsive to the first control signal. Pulse circuitry configures the at least one pulse in the packet to a selected one of a plurality of configurations responsive to the plurality of second control signals. Output electrodes apply the at least one pulse in the packet to a user and detector circuitry detects zero crossings of the at least one pulse in the packet. The processor further causes generation of an indicator responsive to the detected zero crossings.

Abstract: A machine for packaging dehydrated food particles has at least one filling station at which an elongate sleeve is mounted for rotation about a vertical axis. A saucer-shaped plate is mounted horizontally beneath the lower end of said sleeve by an adjustable clamp which secures the plate to the sleeve for rotation therewith, and for axial adjustment toward and away from the lower end of the sleeve. In operation dehydrated particles are fed into the upper end of the sleeve normally to pile up on the plate and to back up into the sleeve to fill its bore. The sleeve and plate are intermittently rotated to cause predetermined quantities of the product to be flung outwardly over the lip of the plate, and to drop through a chute to containers which are advanced one by one past the station. The dehydrated product is therefore not subjected to any compacting during packaging.
