RECOVERY LEVEL ESTIMATION DEVICE, RECOVERY LEVEL ESTIMATION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18278959 titled 'RECOVERY LEVEL ESTIMATION DEVICE, RECOVERY LEVEL ESTIMATION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a device that estimates the recovery level of a patient based on eye movement features extracted from images of the patient's eyes.

  • Image acquisition means captures images of the patient's eyes.
  • Eye movement feature extraction means extracts features of eye movement from the images.
  • Recovery level estimation means estimates the patient's recovery level using a machine learning model based on the extracted eye movement features.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various medical settings to monitor and assess the recovery progress of patients, such as in rehabilitation centers or hospitals.

Problems Solved

This technology helps healthcare professionals track and evaluate the recovery levels of patients in a non-invasive and efficient manner, providing valuable insights into their progress.

Benefits

- Non-invasive monitoring of patient recovery - Efficient assessment of recovery levels - Data-driven insights for healthcare professionals

Potential Commercial Applications

- Medical device companies - Healthcare institutions - Rehabilitation centers

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to eye tracking technology used in medical diagnostics or patient monitoring systems.

What are the limitations of this technology in real-world applications?

This technology may face challenges in accurately estimating recovery levels in patients with certain eye conditions that affect eye movement patterns.

How does this technology compare to traditional methods of assessing patient recovery levels?

This technology offers a more objective and data-driven approach to assessing patient recovery levels compared to traditional subjective methods based on observations and self-reporting.


Original Abstract Submitted

In a recovery level estimation device, an image acquisition means acquires images in which eyes of a patient are captured. An eye movement feature extraction means extracts an eye movement feature which is a feature of an eye movement based on the images. A recovery level estimation means estimates a recovery level of the patient based on the eye movement feature by using a recovery level estimation model which has been learned by machine learning in advance.
