Publication number: 20150099252Abstract: One embodiment of the invention disclosed herein provides techniques for controlling a movement training environment. A movement training system retrieves a movement object from a set of movement objects. The movement training system attains first motion capture data associated with a first user performing a movement based on the movement object. The movement training system generates a first articulable representation based on the first motion capture data. The movement training system compares at least one first joint position related to the first articulable representation with at least one second joint position related to a second articulable representation associated with the movement object. The movement training system calculates a first similarity score based on a difference between the at least one first joint position and the at least one second joint position.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2014Publication date: April 9, 2015Inventors: Fraser ANDERSON, Tovi GROSSMAN, Justin Frank MATEJKA, George FITZMAURICE

Publication number: 20150072327Abstract: An Internet-based process for use by physicians for treating patients with a musculoskeletal condition. Processes include operating an internet processor for presenting a series of questions to the patient for the patient to answer. The processor determines an evaluation of the patient's level of functioning based on the patient's answers, which includes processing scores from a combination of health ratings and a rating scale for assessment of the patient's musculoskeletal condition. The processor places the patient into a selected one of a plurality of exercise levels responsive to the evaluation and dynamically generates a plurality of exercise routines in response to the evaluation.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 26, 2014Publication date: March 12, 2015Applicant: STRETCHING CHARTS, INC. dba VHIInventors: John E.

Publication number: 20150004581Abstract: Persons recovering from injuries or surgeries today generally undertake physical therapy to regain usage of their muscles, joints and other portions of their body. Unfortunately such treatments often do not fully restore the patient's function, at least within constraints of the funds available. Added costs are also incurred by patients for transportation, time off work and the like. Disclosed are systems and methods to provide greatly improved and much more cost effective physical therapy regimens utilizing an interactive approach which makes possible physical therapy at home in a controlled manner. The physical therapist using the system instructs the patient and this instruction is incorporated into an intelligent camera-based system usable by the patient in the home or workplace. Dialog may take place between the patient and therapist using the system and the internet. Other features of the system increase motivation of the patient to perform the exercises prescribed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2012Publication date: January 1, 2015Applicant: Interactive Physical Therapy, LLCInventors: David G.

Patent number: 8891839Abstract: The present system combines image morphing technology, exercise programming, supplement sales, and motivational techniques into one product. Users begin by entering their current measurements, measurement goals and current picture into the system, preferably via a Web site. The picture is segmented into body components, and each affected segment is morphed based upon the measurements, goals, and the segment's responsiveness to weight loss in order to create a modified image representative of the user in a post-regimen condition. This system helps health and fitness businesses obtain new members and retain existing members by showing the members how they will look after following a specific regimen of diet and/or exercise. The system also predicts health risks of diabetes, heart disease, and stroke associated with the user's pre-regimen and post-regimen conditions.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2012Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: Inter-Images Partners, LPInventors: Mario J. Bravomalo, Russ Edward Brucks

Publication number: 20140295392Abstract: A system and method providing virtual physical rehabilitation services to a patient in the context of automated patient healthcare delivery is disclosed. The system/method are controlled by a patient healthcare plan (PHP) deployed from a host computer system (HCS) that triggers execution of a video script dataset (VSD) to coordinate presentation to a patient of rehabilitation audio/video information (AVI) derived from a video database (VDB). A mobile user device (MUD) executes the PHP autonomously to coordinate AVI display on a video display unit (VDU) for patient presentation. Patient reactions to the AVI are observed by a video imaging unit (VIU). An operator interface computer (OIC) communicates with the HCS and MUD permitting visualization of the VIU and AVI information by a healthcare provider and allowing observed patient behavior to be synchronously scored/logged/stored in a patient history database (PHD) by the HCS.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2014Publication date: October 2, 2014Inventor: Eric Rock

Publication number: 20140295393Abstract: An interactive rehabilitation method for movement of upper and lower extremities is disclosed. An identification label of an extracted image is detected to provide an operating position of an image of an extremity. A movement mode for a target image is determined according to the identification label and the target image is displayed in a scene. It is determined whether identification labels corresponding to movement of an extremity of the target image are being continuously obtained, and, if so, the performance of the movement of the extremity is led based on operational guidance. A feedback operation is provided according to the movement of the extremity, preset movement paths and velocities, and targeted positions of the target image. It is determined whether the target image has been moved to the preset targeted positions, and, if so, the performance of the movement of the extremity is graded.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2014Publication date: October 2, 2014Inventors: SHIH YING CHIEN, YIO WHA SHAU
