Abstract: One or more sensors are configured for detection of characteristics of moving objects and living subjects for human identification or authentication. One or more processors, such as in a system of sensors or that control a sensor, may be configured to process signals from the one or more sensors to identify a person. The processing may include evaluating features from the signals such as breathing rate, respiration depth, degree of movement and heart rate etc. The sensors may be radio frequency non-contact sensors with automated detection control to change detection control parameters based on the identification of living beings, such as to avoid sensor interference.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for monitoring the motion, breathing, heart rate of humans in a convenient and low-cost fashion, and for deriving and displaying useful measurements of cardiorespiratory performance from the measured signals. The motion, breathing, and heart rate signals are obtained through a processing applied to a raw signal obtained in a non-contact fashion, typically using a radio-frequency sensor. Processing into separate cardiac and respiratory components is described. The heart rate can be determined by using either spectral or time-domain processing. The respiratory rate can be calculated using spectral analysis. The sensor, processing, and display can be incorporated in a single device which can be worn or held close to the body while exercising, or alternately placed in a fixed piece of exercise equipment at some distance form the body, and may also be integrated with other sensors, such as position locators.

Abstract: A system monitors fatigue of a user. The system (100) may include one or more data sources, such as a non-obtrusive sleep sensor, configured to generate objective sleep measures of the user. The system may also include a fatigue monitoring module, which may be configured to generate an assessment, such as in one or more processors, of the fatigue state of the user based on the data from the one or more data sources.

Abstract: Methods and devices provide physiological movement detection, such as gesture, breathing, cardiac and/or gross body motion, with active sound generation such as for an interactive audio device. The processor may evaluate, via a microphone coupled to the interactive audio device, a sensed audible verbal communication. The processor may control producing, via a speaker coupled to the processor, a sound signal in a user's vicinity. The processor may control sensing, via a microphone coupled to the processor, a reflected sound signal. This reflected sound signal is a reflection of the generated sound signal from the vicinity or user. The processor may process the reflected sound, such as by a demodulation technique, to derive a physiological movement signal. The processor may generate, in response to the sensed audible verbal communication, an output based on an evaluation of the derived physiological movement signal.

Abstract: A processing system includes methods to promote sleep. The system may include a monitor such as a non-contact motion sensor from which sleep information may be determined. User sleep information, such as sleep stages, hypnograms, sleep scores, mind recharge scores and body scores, may be recorded, evaluated and/or displayed for a user. The system may further monitor ambient and/or environmental conditions corresponding to sleep sessions. Sleep advice may be generated based on the sleep information, user queries and/or environmental conditions from one or more sleep sessions. Communicated sleep advice may include content to promote good sleep habits and/or detect risky sleep conditions. In some versions of the system, any one or more of a bedside unit 3000 sensor module, a smart processing device, such as a smart phone or smart device 3002, and network servers may be implemented to perform the methodologies of the system.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus detect events of sleep disordered breathing from an input audio signal such as from a sound sensor. A processor may be configured to receive the audio signal that represents sounds of a user during a period of sleep. The processor determines reliable respiration epochs from the audio, such as on a frame-by-frame basis, that include periods of audible breathing and/or snoring. The processor detects presence of a sleep disordered breathing events, such as hypopnea, apnea, apnea snoring or modulated breathing, in the reliable respiration epoch(s) and generates output to indicate the detected event(s). Optionally, the apparatus may serve as a cost-effective screening device such as when implemented as a processor control application for a mobile processing device (e.g., mobile phone or tablet).

Abstract: A system and method to match an interface to the face of a user for respiratory therapy. A facial image of the user is stored. Facial features based on the facial image are determined. A database stores facial profiles based on facial features and a corresponding plurality of interfaces. A database stores operational data of respiratory therapy devices with the plurality of corresponding interfaces. A selection engine is coupled to the databases. The selection engine is operative to select an interface for the user from the plurality of corresponding interfaces based on a desired outcome based on the stored operational data and the facial features. The collected data may also be employed to determine whether the selected interface is correctly fitted to the face of the user.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for identifying a user interface. Flow data associated with air flowing in a respiratory therapy system is received. Acoustic data associated with the respiratory therapy system is received. The received flow data and the received acoustic data are analyzed. Based at least in part on the analysis, a mask type for the user interface is determined.

Abstract: A system and method detects an occlusion in a respiratory therapy system. The system and method includes determining an acoustic signature for a conduit of a headgear user interface. The determined acoustic signature is analyzed to identify an anomaly in the acoustic signature. In response to the determined acoustic signature being identified as anomalous, a determination is made if the identified anomaly relates to an occlusion of the conduit.
