Abstract:
A stimulation device is provided in accordance with one embodiment. The stimulation device includes a chamber which has a flexible wall portion. A drive unit of the stimulation device is in physical communication with the flexible wall portion so as to cause deflections of the flexible wall portion in opposing directions, thereby resulting in a changing volume of the chamber. The changing volume of the chamber results in modulated positive and negative pressures with respect to a reference pressure. An opening of the stimulation device is for applying the modulated positive and negative pressures to a body part. An appendage of the stimulation device may be used as a handle to allow a user to position the stimulation device over the body part. The stimulation device includes a control device for controlling the drive unit.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, method, and apparatus for enhancing a sexual intercourse experience. A first sensor is worn on a first person engaging in sexual intercourse with a second person. A second sensor is worn on the second person. The proximity of the first and second sensors is communicated to a sound module that outputs sound, music, and/or lights that are synchronized to the thrusting motion occurring during the sexual intercourse.
Abstract:
An electronic safety baton for providing a portable, multifunction security apparatus which includes both visual and audible interface is embodied as a baton housing that externally includes a lighting element, a speaker, a display screen, pulse sensors, two manual actuators, and a baton charging surface, internally includes a rechargeable battery, and utilizes a discrete floor charger mat. The electrically interconnected components on and in the baton housing enable a pulse reading system, a lighting system, and a panic system, each of which use electricity from the battery and are activated through manual engagement. The baton charging surface, when engaged with the floor charger mat, enables the recharging of the battery by allowing externally sourced electricity to be directed to the battery.
Abstract:
A handcart (includes a main body unit, a pair of main wheels provided to the main body unit, a grip unit that is provided to the main body unit and gripped by a user, a grip switch that detects whether the user is gripping the grip unit, a tilt angle sensor, a camera, an acceleration sensor, or other devices that detect the state of the cart body, and a wheel lock mechanism that locks the main wheels if the grip switch does not detect user's gripping of the grip unit and if the cart body is in a predetermined state, for example, if it is detected by the acceleration sensor or other devices that the cart body is moving. This configuration provides a handcart that locks the wheels without necessarily compromising usability.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an optical needle comprising a coupling seat, a needle body in connection with the coupling seat and at least an optical fiber. The needle body comprises a lightguide groove extended along the length direction of the needle body to accommodate a portion of the optical fiber. The coupling seat provides a junction plane to couple a light source. An end of the lightguide groove is aligned with the junction plane, so to align an end of the optical fiber with the junction plane. The optical needle is characterized in that the long axis of the optical fiber reduces from a section aligned with the junction plane to an end adjacent to the needle body. A method for preparation of the optical needle is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A lighting device obtains data related to objects and boundaries in an area in the vicinity of the lighting device, and a user wearable device provides a display (e.g. an augmented reality display based on the data related to the objects and the area boundaries) for a user/wearer. The lighting device includes a mapping sensor that collects data related to the objects and boundaries in the area. The user wearable device includes a camera or other optical sensor and wireless communication capability. The user wearable device is provided with mapping data that is presented on a display of the user wearable device. The communications and display capabilities allow the user wearable device to obtain room mapping information related to area in the vicinity of the lighting device in order to provide navigational assistance to a visually impaired person in the area.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a thin elastomeric mouth guard which covers the teeth to provide a smooth surface during oral sex. The mouth guard will feature different colors and flavors to enhance lubrication and to promote a more enjoyable experience for both the giving and receiving party. Furthermore, it may encourage parties to engage in oral sex, as it reduces risk and discomfort.
Abstract:
A manometer with a cadence indicator includes a housing and a gas pressure indicator interfaced to the housing. An input port of the housing is for connecting the manometer to a source of gas pressure, such that the gas pressure at the input port is reflected in the gas pressure indicator, providing a pressure reading. A cadence module is interfaced to the housing such that cadence is provided concurrently with the local of the gas pressure indicator in two cadence pulse frequencies, one for timing of chest compressions and one for timing of administration of breaths. Cadence is provided visually or audibly.
Abstract:
A CPR machine (100) is configured to perform compressions on a patient's (182) chest that alternate with releases. The CPR machine includes a compression mechanism (148), and a driver system (141) configured to drive the compression mechanism. A compression force may be sensed, and the driving is adjusted accordingly if there is a surprise. For instance, driving may have been automatic according to a motion-time profile, which is adjusted if the compression force is not as expected (850). An optional chest-lifting device (152) may lift the chest between the compressions, to assist actively the decompression of the chest. A lifting force may be sensed, and the motion-time profile can be adjusted if the compression force or the lifting force is not as expected. An advantage is that a changing condition in the patient or in the retention of the patient within the CPR machine may be detected and responded to.
