WEARABLE DEVICE AND SENSOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18100892 titled 'WEARABLE DEVICE AND SENSOR DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a wearable device that includes a main body, a sensor part, and a shock absorber. The sensor part measures a user's bio-signal by contacting their skin surface. The shock absorber mechanically connects the main body and the sensor part, reducing motion transmission between them and allowing independent movement of the main body.
- The wearable device includes a main body, sensor part, and shock absorber.
- The sensor part measures a user's bio-signal by contacting their skin surface.
- The shock absorber connects the main body and sensor part.
- The shock absorber reduces motion transmission between the main body and sensor part.
- The shock absorber allows the main body to move independently from the sensor part.
Potential Applications
- Fitness tracking: The wearable device can be used to monitor a user's heart rate, steps taken, and other bio-signals during exercise.
- Health monitoring: The device can track vital signs such as blood pressure, body temperature, and respiratory rate for medical purposes.
- Sleep tracking: By measuring bio-signals during sleep, the device can provide insights into sleep quality and patterns.
- Stress management: The wearable device can monitor stress levels by analyzing bio-signals, helping users manage and reduce stress.
Problems Solved
- Motion interference: The shock absorber reduces motion transmission between the main body and sensor part, preventing unwanted movement and ensuring accurate bio-signal measurements.
- Comfort and flexibility: The independent movement of the main body allows for a more comfortable and flexible wearing experience.
Benefits
- Accurate measurements: By reducing motion transmission, the wearable device can provide more accurate and reliable bio-signal measurements.
- Enhanced user experience: The shock absorber allows the main body to move independently, improving comfort and flexibility for the user.
- Versatile applications: The wearable device can be used for various purposes such as fitness tracking, health monitoring, sleep tracking, and stress management.
Original Abstract Submitted
A wearable device includes a wearable device main body, a sensor part configured to contact a skin surface of a user of the wearable device, and measure a bio-signal of the user, and a shock absorber that is interposed between the wearable device main body and the sensor part to mechanically connect the wearable device main body and the sensor part, and that is configured to reduce motion transmission between the wearable device main body and the sensor part to permit the wearable device main body to move independently from the sensor part.
