A brush head of a toothbrush includes a plurality of bristles for cleaning teeth and a sensor unit for monitoring the health status of a user regarding development of paradontitis, cavities, periodontitis, and/or for health monitoring. The sensor unit is exchangeably arranged on or in the brush head.

Brush head, toothbrush, analysis system and method for the operation thereof

A method for signal processing of measurement signals of a vortex flow transducer for measuring flow of a medium through a measuring tube. The method is characterized by low needs as regards computing power and memory space. The transducer includes a bluff body arranged in the measuring tube and a sensor for registering pressure fluctuations arising at the bluff body and for converting such pressure fluctuations into an electrical measurement signal. In the method, at least a portion of the measurement signal is sampled and digitized, an autocorrelation of the digitized measurement signal is calculated, and the flow is derived on the basis of at least one characteristic of the autocorrelation.

The process measuring device comprises a flow sensor having a measuring tube, a sensor arrangement for producing a measurement signal, and an evaluation and operating circuit. The method serves to compensate for the effects of interfering potentials which are caused especially by foreign particles or air bubbles in the liquid to be measured. For this purpose, an anomaly in the waveform of the measurement signal caused at least in part by an electrical, especially pulse-shaped, interfering potential is detected by determining within a stored first data set a data group which digitally represents the anomaly. To generate an interference-free data set, the data belonging to the data group are removed from the stored first data set.

A method to control an overactive bladder and to estimate bladder volume using an implanted sensor having at least one nerve electrode to sense electrical signals. The method includes detecting events from nerve signals, generating electrical pulses for stimulating nerves, and stimulating the nerves to inhibit detrusor contraction. Bladder volume may also be estimated based on the amplitude of the detected nerve signals and/or the time between two detected nerve signals from consecutive detrusor contractions.
