NON-INVASIVE, NON CONTACT SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT, AND ASSOCIATED METHODOLOGY FOR MINIMIZING MUSCLE STRESS AND IMPROVING CIRCULATION

摘要

A method, system, and process are described to decrease muscle fatigue and improve circulation of an individual resting on a support device, such as an adjustable chair or bed. The body pose and heat distribution of the individual are determined and used to estimate muscle fatigue and circulation. The estimated muscle fatigue and circulation are then used to determine settings for the support device or the temperature of the environment.
