Abstract:
A method of counting steps of a user employs a first device, e.g. a personal activity monitor 1) and a second device, e.g. a smartphone 2) which communicate with each other. The method includes detecting and counting the steps of the user by the first device, detecting and counting the steps of the user by the second device, transferring step data from one of the two devices to the other of the two devices, and identifying at least a first time period (Tw) for which a difference in the number of steps counted by the first device and by the second device is greater than a predetermined threshold (S). The method further includes supplementing the step data recorded for the first time period in one of the two devices with the step data from the other of the two devices.
Abstract:
The method for calculating the activity of a user, said method being implemented by a personal activity monitor intended to be securely associated with the body of the user, and by a smartphone equipped with a geolocation function, exchanging data over a wireless connection, the method comprising the steps of: -a- the activity monitor detects and counts the steps of the user, -b- the smartphone determines a first geolocation at a first time, -c- the smartphone determines a second geolocation at a second time, -d- one of the two devices calculates a distance traveled between the two geolocations, -e- one of the two devices calculates, based on the distance traveled and the number of steps taken between the two geolocations, the average stride and/or average step of the user.

Abstract:
Electronic scale including four feet, four strain gauges, an electronic control unit and a display, where the gauges are combined in pairs in first and second Wheatstone bridge type circuits, where a first intermediate-point of the bridge is selectively connected via a switch to an intermediate voltage source and where the first and second outputs of the amplifiers are summed by the electronic control unit in order to deduce therefrom a weight for an object present on the device, with indication for the user of off-center condition on the scale. Weighing method implemented in such a scale.
Abstract:
A method for estimating the elevation change traveled by a user, said method using a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor, the pressure sensor being adapted to be held fixed to the user, the method comprising: a)—an operation of periodically sampling raw pressure values, reading the current raw pressure at a first sampling frequency, the raw values being stored in the form of pressure or the corresponding altitude in a first buffer (B1), b)—a filtering operation based on the raw values stored in the first buffer, in order to determine filtered values, c)—a variance calculation, performed on at least a portion of the filtered values, in order to determine a condition for including the elevation changes corresponding to the observed pressure or altitude differences.
Abstract:
A method for providing personalized recommendations to an individual, relating to monitoring his or her weight, comprising the steps of /a/ obtaining a plurality of prior weighings for the individual concerned, each weighing giving the total weight and the body fat percentage, /b/ deriving a characteristic curve (S1) for the individual by associating at least the total weight and the fat body mass, /c/ obtaining a target total weight (P2) for the user to achieve by the end of a target period, and therefore a target total weight change, /d/ deducing a target number of calories to burn, corresponding to target changes in the fat body mass and lean body mass deduced from the total weight change, /e/ providing the user with personalized instructions on exercise and/or diet.

Abstract:
Strap watch comprising a first hand normally indicating the hours, a second hand (2) normally indicating the minutes, where appropriate an additional hand , at least one accelerometer, and an electronic control unit which is configured so that it normally causes the time to be indicated by the hands, calculates at least one individual activity amount representative of a physical activity of the user based on information collected by the accelerometer, and displays the activity amount by means of at least one of the hands, whereby the user can very simply view one or more amount(s) relating to his or her physical activity on a compact and conventional analog watch interface.
Abstract:
A urine analysis device includes a case configured to be positioned entirely within a toilet bowl. The case includes a front face for receiving a stream of urine directly from a user urinating in the toilet bowl and a rear face opposite the front face. The device includes a collection aperture disposed on the rear face, the collection aperture being configured to collect liquid inside the case. The rear face of the case includes an array of ribs, the array of ribs forming at least a portion of a urine pathway from the front face to the collection aperture on the rear face.
Abstract:
A method of determining a characteristic of a cardiac condition of an individual, the method including a) measuring at least one signal representative of a cardiac activity of the individual repeatedly; c) processing at least part of the at least one measured signal; d) analyzing a time evolution of at least part of the at least one processed signal; e) providing a characteristic of the signal representative of the cardiac activity, based on procedures a) to d).
Abstract:
An electronic measuring device includes a weighing plate, extending along a measuring plane and including an upper face configured to receive a user's feet; a lower face, opposite the upper face, and a rounded edge connecting the upper face to the lower face; and at least one electrode extending on the weighing plate from the upper face over the rounded edge to the lower face.
