Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices are provided herein providing electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). In some instances, an EMS device may be provided. The EMS device may be compact, light, and unobtrusive such that it can be used by a person going about his or her daily activities. In some instances, the EMS device may comprise additional sensors for increased functionality and may be capable of interacting with additional devices or platforms to provide a full-fledged EMS device capability.
Claims21
1-250. (canceled)
A system for providing electrical stimulation to a user, the system comprising:
- a pulse generator structurally configured to generate electrical pulses in response to execution of a stimulation program;
- one or more pads in communication with the pulse generator, the one or more pads structurally configured to attach to the user and to transmit the electrical pulses to stimulate the user according to the stimulation program;
- and
- a processor and a memory, the memory storing non-transitory computer executable code embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium, that, when executed by the processor, performs the steps of:
- obtaining information regarding the user;
- analyzing the information regarding the user;
- producing a tailored stimulation program for the user based on analysis of the information;
- and
- executing the tailored stimulation program with the pulse generator and the one or more pads.
A method for providing electrical stimulation to a user, the method comprising:
- communicating with one or more application programs via one or more application program interfaces (API) to obtain information on the user;
- analyzing the information regarding the user;
- producing a tailored stimulation program for the user based on analysis of the information;
- and
- executing the tailored stimulation program, wherein executing the tailored stimulation program comprises:
- generating electrical pulses with a pulse generator according to the tailored stimulation program;
- and
- transmitting the electrical pulses to one or more pads attached to the user and in communication with the pulse generator thereby stimulating the user according to the tailored stimulation program.
An electric stimulation device for stimulating a user, the electric stimulation device comprising:
- a central body comprising:
- a processor and a memory, the memory storing non-transitory computer executable code embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium, that, when executed by the processor, executes a stimulation program;
- a pulse generator structurally configured to generate electrical pulses in response to the stimulation program;
- and
- a user interface accessible on an external surface of the central body, the user interface comprising an actuatable mechanism configured to affect a state of the stimulation program;
- and
- one or more pads in communication with the central body, the one or more pads structurally configured to attach to the user and to transmit the electrical pulses to stimulate the user according to the state of the stimulation program.
