Abstract
Description
1. Designation of the invention
[0001] Combined module for the simultaneous recording of posture, movement and uprightness feedback with movement resonance and amplification to form a holistic biofeedback-based resonance system 2. Technical description
[0002] Textile-integrated, body-wearable combination module for the simultaneous recording of posture, movement and their feedback as well as stimulation for posture correction on the back (planned under the brand name AIDEM.align) or as a textile-based arm or leg module with integrated, muscle-like structured zones to support the natural movement dynamics of the arms and legs (planned under the brand name AIDEM.motion). 3. Description of the invention
[0003] The system uses elastic fibers, structured textile layers, or segmented reinforcements in a honeycomb or linear arrangement. The goal is to support movement in everyday life, during training, or in rehabilitation – without external power supply, as a purely passive system, or supplemented by microactive components.
[0004] The invention can be worn close to the body as a standalone back, arm, or leg support – individually or integrated into clothing (as a garment module or as an accessory). It can be variably positioned along the back, arms, or legs and promote therapeutically effective relief or activation through gentle impulses.
[0005] Furthermore, it can function passively or actively (with micro-impulses) and can be combined with other systems in the registered line. Applications range from prevention and self-regulation to stress medicine therapy. In combination with AI-based feedback systems, individual adaptation is possible.
[0006] The system creates a new interface between internal perception and external posture—wearable, intuitive, and aesthetic. It combines the functions of AIDEM.align (posture analysis and alignment feedback) with AIDEM.motion (movement resonance and amplification) to create a holistic biofeedback-based resonance system.
[0007] It is particularly suitable for therapeutic applications in orthopedic and neurological conditions, in movement therapy, conscious everyday movement, neuroaesthetic performance or meditative movement (e.g. breath dance, mindfulness practice).
[0008] The aim is to promote proprioceptive body awareness and muscle relaxation in parts of the back (e.g. the lumbar spine) or the entire back or the arms and legs. 4. Textual appendix on how it works
[0009] The textile integration takes place along the spinal axis or in the area of the arms or legs, depending on the desired measurement. An optional interface element (e.g., AIDEM.symbol) is available, which can serve as a focusable, visible point.
[0010] The module uses integrated inertial sensors (IMU) to detect the alignment of the upper body, lower back, arms, or legs, analyzes movement dynamics (acceleration, change of direction, symmetry), and measures posture using textile sensors or coupled modules. Based on these three parameters, the module provides multisensory feedback—e.g., via vibration, light, or pressure pulses—for conscious coordination of posture and movement.
[0011] Structured impulses are transmitted to defined areas of the back or extremities (e.g., lumbar spine, legs). The impulses are generated either by embedded microactive fibers, thermodynamic elements, or pressure-sensitive textures. The impulses can be generated by structured textiles, vibration elements, or elastic pressure modules.
Claims
[1] Back element or arm or leg module with modular or textile-integrated impulse structure for movement support via sensory detection and feedback of posture and movement parameters, comprising at least one element for mechanical, thermal or sensory stimulation, whereby structured impulses are generated locally or dynamically and transmitted to defined back regions (e.g. cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine). The system is modularly adaptable, can be worn close to the body, and functions actively or passively, independent of the wearer. The impulses serve to consciously coordinate and correct posture, movement, and inner perception and are activated by textile or electronic control depending on the parameter input. The module has a fiber- and muscle-like structure and generates dynamic restoring forces that support or harmonize physiological leg movement, particularly through segmented fibers or reinforcements in a physiological or geometric arrangement. [2] Back or extremity element according to one of the preceding claims, characterized by that the impulse structure is activated via woven microfiber lines, thermodynamic elements or elastic pressure zones, whereby the activation can be manual, automatic or AI-based. [3] Back or extremity element according to one of the preceding claims, characterized bythat an optional interface module (e.g. AIDEM.symbol) is provided, which serves as a visible or focusable feedback point and reacts to states of the module or the wearer with optical, tactile or symbolic signals and which supports conscious focusing via textile or digital displays.
