Monitoring eating habits using a piezoelectric sensor-based necklace

TL;DR: A novel food-intake monitoring system based around a wearable wireless-enabled necklace that includes an embedded piezoelectric sensor, small Arduino-compatible microcontroller, Bluetooth LE transceiver, and Lithium-Polymer battery is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in sensing oropharyngeal swallowing function in Japan.

TL;DR: The present state and possibility of clinical application of medical systems developed in Japan are reported, which enable straightforward, non-invasive measurement of the movement of important swallowing-related organs such as the lips and tongue, as well as the larynx.

Development of a System to Monitor Laryngeal Movement during Swallowing Using a Bend Sensor

TL;DR: The present monitoring system using a bend sensor might be useful for observing the temporal aspects of laryngeal movement during swallowing, and it was well coordinated with hyoid bone movement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activity patterns of the suprahyoid muscles during swallowing of different fluid volumes.

TL;DR: The present results suggest that the swallowing volume mainly affects SH activity patterns, which were evaluated by the T(P) technique, during the early period of each swallow.

Non-invasive detection of medication adherence using a digital smart necklace

TL;DR: A two step system for detecting user adherence to medication, where force-sensitive resistors are used to determine when the pill bottle has been opened and a smart necklace equipped with a piezoelectric sensor is used.

An Electronic Device Measuring the Frequency of Spontaneous Swallowing: Digital Phagometer

TL;DR: A new and protable electronic device called the “Digital Phagometer” is described for the time-based counting of spontaneous swallowing, composed of a piezoelectric sensor and a digital event counter/recorder which can be downloaded to any IBM-compatible PC.
Journal ArticleDOI

The electromyographic behavior of the thyroarytenoid muscle during swallowing.

TL;DR: The fore-burst was proposed to be related with oral-laryngeal reflexes, and the late-burst could be a rebound activity after a short expiration of swallowing, while the basic activity was accepted to be a part of activity of central-pattern generator of swallowing program.
