Abstract: A system for measuring EEG signals, comprises a wearable body adapted to fit over a scalp, a plurality of electrodes mounted on the wearable body, and optionally also a plurality of controllable actuators for applying force to the electrodes. A controller optionally controls each actuator or group of actuators to apply force to at least one electrode. A signal processor receives and processes signals from the electrodes and optionally transmits control signals to the controller based on the processing.

Abstract: A system for improving the treatment of a patient's disease. A patient is fitted with a wireless motion capture device. A computer system receives the captured motion data other patient metric information and compares same to stored data sets. The stored data sets may comprise other motion data and/or metric data from the patient being examined, or captured data from other patients. The stored data sets can also be tagged with, or otherwise associated with, one or more treatment protocols. A model can be formed with respect to the patient's captured motion and other metric information. A probable treatment of the diseases, effectiveness of the patient's treatment regimen, and progression of the disease itself can be ascertained from the comparison.

Abstract: A method is described for operating a locking device, including overriding normal operation of the locking device which is powered by a battery. If a charge of the battery gets lowered to a low battery charge threshold, the locking device goes into a hibernating mode, and the locking device is capable of being awakened for a limited time by a user operation.

Abstract: An assembly including a cylinder lock including a rotatable member for actuating an external locking element, and a reduction gear disposed inside the cylinder lock, the reduction gear mechanically linked to the rotatable member and operable to rotate the rotatable member, the reduction gear including an interface member for connection to an actuator for movement of the reduction gear.

Abstract: A method of authenticating a user includes using at least one computer and connected scanner to obtain biometric measurements of a plurality of biometric parameters of the user. The parameters are stored as templates for comparison, as well as a sequence in which the plurality of biometric parameters are to be scanned in order to perform a valid authentication. Authentication is determined by comparing each biometric parameter submitted with the stored biometric templates, to determine if each biometric parameter matches a stored template. In addition, the sequence with which each matched template was presented is identified, and this sequence is compared with the stored sequence. If a predetermined number of biometric parameters match, and a predetermined number of elements in a sequence match, the user is authenticated.
