Figure 1 illustrates an isometric view of a health monitoring and medications management device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] The following description includes the preferred best mode of one embodiment of the present invention. It will be clear from this description of the invention that the invention is not limited to these illustrated embodiments but that the invention also includes a variety of modifications and embodiments thereto. Therefore, the present description should be seen as illustrative and not limiting. While the invention is susceptible to various modifications and alternative constructions, it should be understood, that there is no intention to limit the invention to the specific form disclosed, but, on the contrary, the invention is to cover all modifications, alternative constructions, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the claims.

[0020] In any embodiment described herein, the open-ended terms "comprising," "comprises,” and the like (which are synonymous with "including," "having” and "characterized by") may be replaced by the respective partially closed phrases "consisting essentially of," consists essentially of," and the like or the respective closed phrases "consisting of," "consists of, the like.

[0021] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.

[0022] The present invention relates to a health monitoring and medications management device that is capable of continuously monitoring vital health parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure, temperature and other parameters of a user and accordingly notifies the user and a health care provider in real-time, in case any abnormalities are detected. Additionally, the proposed device is also capable of correcting medication routines and informing users about changes in their health status or medication effects.

[0023] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of a health monitoring and medications management device is illustrated, comprising a wearable body 101, a pair of motorized hinges 102 positioned at mid-length of the body 101, an inflatable member 103 is positioned on the inner portions of the body 101, a touch interactive display panel 104 installed on the body 101, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 105 installed on the body 101, a vibrating unit 106 arranged on the body 101, a holographic projection unit 107 mounted on the body 101, and a microphone 108 is installed on the body 101.

[0024] The device disclosed herein comprises of a wearable body 101 incorporating various components associated with the device and developed to be worn around a wrist portion of a user’s forearm. The body 101 is crafted to conform to the natural curvature of the user's wrist portion. The body 101 serves as the core element of the device and is generally made from materials that offer a balance of durability and comfort to the user.

[0025] The user is required to activate the device manually by pressing a push button integrated on the body 101 and linked with an inbuilt microcontroller associated with the device. The push button is a type of switch that is internally connected with the device via multiple circuits that upon pressing by the user, the circuits get closed and starts conduction of electricity that tends to activate the device and vice versa.

[0026] After activation of the device by the user, the microcontroller actuates a pair of motorized hinges 102 positioned at mid-length of the body 101 to open/close the body 101 for allowing the user to manually accommodate the body 101 over the wrist portion of the user. The motorized hinges 102 integrate an electric motor with a traditional hinge mechanism to enable controlled, automated converging/ diverging movement of the body 101 around a fixed axis.

[0027] The hinges 102 comprise of a pair of leaf that are screwed with the surface of the body 101. The leafs are connected with each other by means of a cylindrical member integrated with a shaft coupled with a DC (Direct Current) motor to provide required movement to the hinge. The rotation of the shaft in clockwise and anti-clockwise direction provides required tilting movement to the hinge for providing diverging movement to open the body 101 for allowing the user to accommodate the body 101 over the wrist portion of the user.

[0028] As the body 101 is worn by the user, simultaneously the microcontroller by means of multiple touch sensors (ranging from 2 to 4 in numbers) arranged on inner periphery of the body 101, detect the accommodation of the body 101 over the user’s wrist portion. The touch sensor works like a switch, such that when there's contact, touch, or pressure on the surface of the touch sensor, it opens up an electrical circuit and allows currents to flow through it, the sensor then transmit signal to the microcontroller for processing in order to detect accommodation of the body 101 over the user’s wrist portion.

[0029] Upon successful detection of accommodation, the microcontroller re-actuates the hinges 102 to provide diverging movement to the body 101 for closing and securing the body 101 over the wrist portion of the user. An inflatable member 103 is positioned on the inner portions of the body 101, wherein upon closing of the body 101, the microcontroller actuates an air compressor integrated with the inflatable member 103 for inflating an inflatable member 103.

[0030] Upon actuation, the air compressor extracts the air from surrounding and increases the pressure of the air by reducing the volume of the air and which is further injected in the member 103. The inflatable member 103 is laminated of multiple thin polymeric films, when air is inserted in the inflatable member 103 by means of air compressor, the films are puffed and the member 103 becomes soft and attain a structure for providing a secure and adjustable hold of the body 101 over the user’s forearm.

[0031] Once the body 101 is secured over the user’s forearm, the user is required to access a touch interactive display panel 104 installed on the body 101 to provide input details regarding the user’s medical history and current medications. The display panel 104 provides an intuitive interface with user-friendly menus and icons, making the display panel 104 accessible for users of all ages. Through this panel, the user is able to enter detailed information regarding their health conditions, medication schedules, and allergies. The touch interactive display panel 104 used herein is a type of Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that detect touch input from the personnel. It consists of both an input unit (preferably a capacitive touch panel) and an output unit (a visual display). The capacitive touch panel is layered on the top of the visual display. The touch panel consists of an insulator such as glass, coated with a transparent conductor, such as indium tin oxide (ITO).

[0032] When the user touches the surface of the display panel 104 to select a location, the electrostatic field of the display panel 104 gets distorted, that is measured as a change in capacitance. This change in capacitance is used to determine the location of the touch. The determined location of the touch is then sent in the form of electrical signals to the microcontroller linked with the display panel 104.

[0033] Once the user enters their medical history, current medications, and other health-related data, the microcontroller analyzes and organizes this information and create a comprehensive profile for the user. This profile is then stored securely in a database linked with the microcontroller. The database is designed with encryption protocols to ensure that the user's sensitive medical data remains confidential and protected from unauthorized access.

[0034] After creating the user profile, the microcontroller actuates an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 105 installed on the body 101 and paired with a processor for continuously capturing and processing multiple images in vicinity of the body 101, respectively. The artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 105 comprises of a high-resolution camera lens, digital camera sensor and a processor, wherein the lens captures multiple images from different angles and perspectives in vicinity of the body 101 with the help of digital camera sensor for providing comprehensive coverage of the user’s daily activities such as running, walking, or exercising.

[0035] The captured images then go through pre-processing steps by the processor integrated with the imaging unit 105. The artificial intelligence protocols integrated into the processor, including machine learning and computer vision protocols, optimize image processing by enhancing feature extraction and classification. The captured images undergo pre-processing steps such as adjusting brightness, contrast, and noise removal to enhance quality. These refined images are further processed by the microcontroller linked with the imaging unit 105 to monitor daily activities of the user by analyzing movements, posture, and behavior patterns of the user.

[0036] The display panel 104 is further accessed by the user to input medications intake routine such as the type, dosage, and timing of their medications. This data is processed by the microcontroller, which synchronizes the input data with the user activity data monitored by the imaging unit 105. By analyzing the medication intake routine against the user’s daily activities, the microcontroller identifies any discrepancies or potential errors in the inputted information.

[0037] In an exemplary embodiment, if the user’s activity log indicates prolonged inactivity during a time when a medication should have been taken, or if an input conflicts with recommended timings. In such events, the microcontroller actuates a vibrating unit 106 arranged on the body 101 to provide haptic feedback, which serves as an immediate and non-intrusive alert to the user for prompting the user to correct or verify the input information regarding their medication. The display panel 104 allows the user to track and monitor the daily activities and medication routines, ensuring that accurate data is provided and eliminating risk of medication errors.

[0038] The vibrating unit 106 provides a gentle but noticeable vibration to immediately draw the user's attention. The vibrating unit 106 works by converting electrical energy into mechanical vibrations. The unit consist of a small motor with unbalanced weight attached to its shaft. On actuation by the microcontroller, the motor spins the unbalanced weight creates a vibrating motion, which shakes the body 101 to generate vibrational sensations of pre-defined intensity in order to alert the user to correct or verify the input information regarding their medication.

[0039] Simultaneously, a health monitoring module that includes a FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) sensor, a temperature sensor, and an ECG (electrocardiogram) sensor, installed on inner portion of the body 101, continuously monitor vital health parameters of the user, including heart rate, blood pressure, temperature and respiratory rate. The Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor used herein is an optical sensor that uses a segment of optical fiber with a periodic variation in the refractive index, known as the Bragg grating.

[0040] This grating reflects specific wavelengths of light while transmitting others. When the fiber is subjected to strain, temperature changes, or pressure, the reflected wavelength (Bragg wavelength) shifts. By measuring this shift, the FBG sensor accurately detect and quantify physical parameters such as heart rate and blood pressure of the user while using the device and accordingly evaluates the respiratory rate of the user and transfer the data to the microcontroller in the form of electrical signals.

[0041] The ECG (electrocardiogram) sensor comprises electrodes, an analog front-end circuit, an amplifier, and an analog-to-digital converter. The electrodes, placed on the user's skin, capture minute electrical signals from the heart. These signals are sent to the analog front-end circuit, which filters out noise and amplifies the signals. The amplified signals are then digitized by the analog-to-digital converter and sent to the microcontroller.

[0042] The temperature sensor used herein detect the temperature by optical analysis of the infrared radiation emitted by the user’s body. The sensor employs a lens to focus the infrared radiation emitting from the user’s body onto a detector known as a thermopile. When the infrared radiation falls on the thermopile surface, it gets absorbed and converts into heat. Voltage output is produced in proportion to the incident infrared energy. The detector uses this output to determine the temperature of the surroundings. The measured temperature is then converted into electrical signal which is received by the microcontroller.

[0043] The microcontroller continuously receives and processes the signals from the health monitoring module to detect any abnormalities or abnormal deviations in the user's health metrics, such as a significant rise in heart rate or a drop in blood pressure, after taking the prescribed medications. If any significant health deviations are detected, the microcontroller then fetches the most suitable alternate medication from the database that is pre-updated by a concerned medical authority. The database is stored with alternate medication options and dosage recommendations customized to specific health conditions.

[0044] Upon fetching alternate medication based on the detected abnormalities, the microcontroller actuates a holographic projection unit 107 mounted on the body 101 to provide visual prompts for notifying the user about changes in the user’s health and effects of current medication, and provides suggestions regarding pausing current medications and offering alternative medication recommendations. The holographic projection unit 107 operates by using a combination of light sources, mirrors, and lenses to create a three-dimensional visual representation.

[0045] The projection unit 107 consists of a laser light source that projects onto a beam splitter, which divides the light into multiple paths. These paths are then directed onto a diffraction grating to produce the holographic image. Micro-lenses and mirrors further focus and align the light to form a clear 3D projection. The microcontroller linked with the projection unit 107 controls the image content, ensuring the correct hologram is depicted for notifying the user regarding the alternative medication recommendations and provide immediate corrective actions such as contacting a health care provider.

[0046] When the user experiences health issues, discomfort, or needs to contact the health care provider based on the suggestion from the projection unit 107, the user is required to access a microphone 108 installed on the body 101 to provide input voice commands for initiating contact with the health care provider. The microphone 108 receives the user voice commands and converts the sound energy emitted by the user into electrical energy. Inside the microphone 108, a diaphragm made of plastic is present that moves back and forth when the sound wave hits the diaphragm, which then moves a coil attached to the diaphragm in the same way in order to generate an electrical signal proportional to the sound. The electric signal from coil flows to an amplifier which amplifies the electrical signal. The amplified electrical signal is then sent to an inbuilt microcontroller linked to the microphone 108.

[0047] Upon receiving and processing the signal from the microphone 108, the microcontroller recognizes the user input voice command, and accordingly actuates a communication module which includes, but not limited to Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) module, Bluetooth module, GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) module integrated with the microcontroller to generate a call or a notification message to a computing unit such as a mobile phone, tablet, or computer that is wirelessly linked to the microcontroller and accessed by the healthcare provider.

[0048] The communication module allows the microcontroller to send and receive data to and from the computing unit without the need for physical connections. The Wi-Fi module provides connectivity over local networks, enabling real-time communication over longer distances. The Bluetooth module offers short-range, low-power communication, ideal for close proximity. The GSM module allows for communication over mobile networks, facilitating remote monitoring and control from virtually anywhere. This versatile connectivity ensures seamless interaction between the microcontroller and the computing unit for enabling the user to connect directly with the healthcare provider or medical personnel, enabling real-time communication for immediate assistance, consultation, or emergency intervention.

[0049] Simultaneously, the microcontroller actuates a GPS (Global Positioning System) module installed on the body 101 for tracking movement of the user and monitoring the user’s exercise and activities, throughout the time for which the user is wearing the device. The GPS (Global Positioning System) module is a satellite-based navigation system. The satellites present in space moving in fixed orbits transmits information about the location up to which the cylinder is to be relocated. The signals travel at the speed of light and are intercepted by the GPS module such that the GPS module calculates the distance of each satellite and based on the time taken by the information to arrive at the receiver.

[0050] The GPS module locates four or more satellites and calculates the distance between each of them. Using this information, the GPS module track movement of the user. The GPS module further transmits the movement of the user to the microcontroller in the form of electrical signal. The microcontroller processes the signal received from the GPS module to track movement of the user and monitor the user’s exercise and activities of the user.

[0051] Simultaneously, if the monitoring module detects any abnormalities or deviations from normal activity levels during the exercise/activity, the microcontroller generates a wireless notification that is sent to the computing unit for notifying the healthcare provider, ensuring timely intervention and appropriate assistance, thus promoting well-being of the user.

[0052] During the time for which the device is in use, the imaging unit 105 continuously monitors the user’s posture, movement, and activity levels in real time. For example, the imaging unit 105 detect if the user is sedentary, overly active, or performing activities that interfere with their prescribed medication schedule. Based on these observations, the microcontroller generates personalized alerts and reminders, ensuring timely medication intake and minimizing risks associated with missed doses or improper activity. This real-time adaptation enhances the user’s health management by delivering customized guidance and ensuring accuracy in the user’s routine.

[0053] Lastly, a battery is installed within the device which is connected to the microcontroller that supplies current to all the electrically powered components that needs an amount of electric power to perform their functions and operation in an efficient manner. The battery utilized here, is generally a dry battery which is made up of Lithium-ion material that gives the device a long-lasting as well as an efficient DC (Direct Current) current which helps every component to function properly in an efficient manner. As the device is battery operated and do not need any electrical voltage for functioning. Hence the presence of battery leads to the portability of the device i.e., user is able to place as well as moves the device from one place to another as per the requirement.

[0054] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the wearable body 101 as disclosed in the invention is developed to be worn around the wrist portion of the user’s forearm. The pair of motorized hinges 102 open/close the body 101 for allowing the user to manually accommodate the body 101 over the wrist portion. Multiple touch sensors detect the accommodation of the body 101 over the user’s wrist portion and accordingly the inflatable member 103 gets inflated for providing a secure and adjustable hold of the body 101 over the user’s forearm. Further, the user accesses the touch interactive display panel 104 to provide input details regarding the user’s medical history and current medications. Further, the artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 105 monitor daily activities of the user by analyzing movements, posture, and behavior patterns of the user. The user input medications intake routine such as the type, dosage, and timing of their medications via the display panel 104. Afterwards, the vibrating unit 106 provide haptic feedback to alert the user for correcting or verifying the input information regarding their medication. Simultaneously, the health monitoring module continuously monitor vital health parameters of the user, including heart rate, blood pressure, temperature and respiratory rate.

[0055] In continuation, if any significant health deviations are detected the holographic projection unit 107 provide visual prompts for notifying the user about changes in the user’s health and effects of current medication, and provides suggestions regarding pausing current medications and offering alternative medication recommendations. The user further accesses the microphone 108 to provide input regarding contact with the health care provider. Based on which the communication module generates call or notification message to the computing unit accessed by the healthcare provider. Simultaneously, the GPS (Global Positioning System) module track movement of the user and monitor the user’s exercise and activities and accordingly wireless notification is sent to the computing unit for notifying the healthcare provider upon detection of any abnormalities or deviations from normal levels for ensuring timely intervention and appropriate assistance.

[0056] Although the field of the invention has been described herein with limited reference to specific embodiments, this description is not meant to be construed in a limiting sense.
