20120071783 | APPARATUS FOR MONITORING A POSITION OF A TUBE'S DISTAL END WITH RESPECT TO A BLOOD VESSEL - The invention relates to an apparatus ( | 03-22-2012 |
20120109575 | FALL DETECTORS AND A METHOD OF DETECTING FALLS - There is provided a fall detector for detecting falls of a user or an object to which the fall detector is attached, characterized in that the fall detector comprises an air flow sensor for providing measurements indicative of vertical velocity and/or changes in altitude of the fall detector. | 05-03-2012 |
20120291779 | FLOW SENSOR AND AEROSOL DELIVERY DEVICE - An aerosol delivery system (e.g., MDI or nebulizer for delivering aerosolized medication to a patient) includes a temperature sensor in an aerosol output pathway of the system. A controller determines that an aerosol generator of the system has released aerosol when the sensor senses a predetermined temperature change in the pathway. The temperature sensor may also comprise a thermal flow sensor that includes a heater and upstream and downstream temperature sensors. The controller compares the upstream and downstream temperatures to determine the presence, direction, and/or magnitude of fluid flow in the pathway. The controller may use the aerosol detection and/or flow detection to monitor compliance with desired use of the system and/or provide real-time instructions to a user for proper use of the system. The controller may record the aerosolization and flow data for later analysis. | 11-22-2012 |

20130008225 | SYSTEM FOR MEASURING FLUID FLOW VELOCITY - The invention relates to a system ( | 01-10-2013 |
20130186392 | AEROSOL DELIVERY SYSTEM WITH TEMPERATURE-BASED AEROSOL DETECTOR - An aerosol delivery system (e.g., MDI or nebulizer for delivering aerosolized medication to a patient) includes a temperature sensor ( | 07-25-2013 |
20140109911 | USER INTERFACE DEVICE PROVIDING IMPROVED LOAD DISTRIBUTION FUNCTIONALITY - A cushion member for a user interface device is provided. The cushion member is structured to provide a load distribution functionality responsive to the cushion member being donned by the user, wherein at least a portion of the cushion member has a local stiffness of less than or equal to 100 kPa/mm responsive to a stress increase on the cushion member of 1 kPa-15 kPa. | 04-24-2014 |
20140251338 | USER INTERFACE DEVICE PROVIDING IMPROVED LOAD DISTRIBUTION FUNCTIONALITY BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION - A cushion member for a user interface device is provided. The cushion member is structured to provide a load distribution functionality responsive to the cushion member being donned by the user, wherein at least a portion of the cushion member has a local stiffness of less than or equal to 100 kPa/mm responsive to a stress increase on the cushion member of 1 kPa-15 kPa. | 09-11-2014 |
