Patent Awarded: AI powered mobility assessment system (No. US 12,343,138 B2)

Abstract: To assess the mobility of a user, a mobility assessment system obtains a video of a user having a plurality of video frames from a camera. The mobility assessment system generates a three-dimensional (3D) skeleton model of the user based on the plurality of video frames, and determines a range of motion of the user based on a change in position of the 3D skeleton model over the plurality of video frames. Then the mobility assessment system provides an indication of the range of motion of the user for display. Also, the mobility assessment system delivers tailored exercises and suggestions to enhance user mobility and reduce the risk of falls. Source: US-12343138-B2

Patent: Circadian Sensor System

US Patent office granted a patent to Blue Iris on March 19, 2024 for their Circadian Sensor System. A circadian health system (CHS) provides for improving the health of Alzheimer’s patients and other persons by controlling their exposure to circadian lighting.  Circadian sensor devices (CSDs) are distributed in a living space, e.g., at about about eye-level positions on respective walls of room.  Each CSD includes a spectral sensor for measuring the intensity of light at various wavelength bands.  Captured spectra can be compared to circadian light signatures so that the sources of circadian light can be identified.  The identifications then allow predetermined high-resolution, e.g., 5nm, spectra in the circadian wavelengths of 450-500 nm to be determined.  The spectra can then be used to control circadian lighting to provide prescribed doses of circadian stimulus.  Source: https://ppubs.uspto.gov/api/pdf/downloadPdf/11931172?requestToken=eyJzdWIiOiI0MzBhYjExNC00OTI0LTRjYjYtYWFkYy0yOGZjOTM2MDM2YjMiLCJ2ZXIiOiJhYzg0ODU3OS02NGRmLTRhNTgtYmZmOS0yNDlmNTFiMTQ2ODciLCJleHAiOjB9
