[0045] This disclosure describes a cosmetic applicator system that minimizes, modifies, attenuates, changes, reduces, compensates for, or similarly mitigates involuntary movements by stabilizing, guiding, utilizing, controlling, etc., an applicator for a user and is also designed to be flexible in accommodating different types of commercially available cosmetic applications. This disclosure further describes a system and features for enhancing the functionality of such a cosmetic applicator system.

[0046] The basic characteristics and operation of a motion stabilization device for a cosmetic applicator are described in US patent no. 11,458,062.

[0047] Figure 1 shows a conventional motion stabilization device 1100, which serves as a base unit for receiving a cosmetic applicator according to one embodiment. The device 1100 comprises a handle portion 1101, a receiver portion 1102, and a strap 1103. The receiver portion 1102 includes an interface 1104, shown as a male connector that couples with a cosmetic applicator, which will be discussed in detail below. The receiver portion can be used for communication between the base unit and the applicator. Connection to an adapter and / or an applicator can be achieved using a mechanical coupling, such as a screw or snap-on fitting, or by means of magnets.

[0048] Figure 2 shows how device 1100 is coupled with adapter 1105 and a makeup applicator 1106. It can be seen that the adapter fits onto the exposed end of the receiving part 1102. The adapter includes electrically compatible connectors (a female connector - not shown) in a recessed part to make contact with the electrical interface of the receiving part 1101.

[0049] As shown in [Fig. 2], the receiving part 1102 is configured to contort, articulate, reposition, etc., between a vertical position (as shown in [Fig. 1]) and an inclined posture (as shown in [Fig. 2]). This is achieved at with the aid of a hinge mechanism contained within the receiving part 1102. [Fig.2] shows that the hinge mechanism is a self-leveling / motion-stabilizing hinge.

[0050] Figure 3A shows a diagram of the internal components of the device 1100 according to one embodiment. In the handle portion, the device includes a power supply 1301, which may be a battery or similar. The device includes a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) 1302, which may include the position sensor circuitry 1307, the reader circuitry 1308, the control circuitry 1309, and the communication interface 1310, as included in Article 1100.

[0051] For example, like the circuitry of sensor 1307, PCB A may include at least one inertial sensor and at least one distributed motion sensor to detect involuntary muscle movements and measure the signals associated with these involuntary muscle movements that are created when a user negatively affects the movement of the applicator. These sensors also detect the movement of the stabilized output relative to the device. The control circuits send voltage commands to the motion-generating elements (described below) in response to the signals to cancel out the user's involuntary muscle movements or tremors. This cancellation maintains and stabilizes the applicator's position, keeping it stable.

[0052] Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that a system and method according to the present invention can utilize various implementations of the control circuits and sensor circuits that would be within the spirit and scope of the present invention. In one embodiment, the control circuitry 1309 comprises an electrical system capable of producing an electrical response from sensor inputs such as a programmable microcontroller or a user-programmable pre-diffused array (FPGA). In one embodiment, the control circuitry comprises an 8-bit ATMEGA8A programmable microcontroller manufactured by Atmel because of its low overall cost, low power consumption, and suitability for use in high-volume applications.

[0053] In one embodiment, at least one inertial sensor in the sensor circuitry is a sensor comprising, but not limited to, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, or a combination of both. In one embodiment, at least one motion sensor distributed in the sensor circuitry is a non-contact position sensor comprising, but not limited to, a Hall effect magnetic sensor.

[0054] The system created by combining the sensor circuitry, the control circuitry, and the motion generation elements can be a closed-loop control system that detects motion and acceleration in different points in the system and transmits detailed information to a control algorithm that moves the motion-generating elements appropriately to cancel the net effect of involuntary muscle movements of a user and thus stabilize the applicator's position. The operation and details of the control system elements and the control algorithm are included in the art, as described in US PG Publication 2014 / 0052275A1.

[0055] The communication interface 1310 may include a network controller such as BCM43342 Wi-Fi, frequency modulation and a Broadcom Bluetooth combo chip, for interfacing with a network.

[0056] In the receiving portion of the device, there may be two movable elements to allow three-dimensional movement of the receptacle as an anti-vibration displacement. The two movable elements comprise a y-axis movable element 1303 and an x-axis movable element 1304, each connected to and controlled by the PCB A 1302. Each of the movable elements may be servomotors as defined in the article. The device further comprises a terminal effector coupling 1305, which is configured to be coupled with the adapter 1105. The terminal effector coupling 1305 may include a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader 1306, configured to read an RFID tag, which may be included with the applicator, as will be discussed below.

[0057] Figure 3B shows a diagram of an alternative embodiment of the device 1100 in which the receiving portion comprises an electromagnetic positioner 1311 instead of the moving elements shown in Figure 3A. The electromagnetic positioner 1311 may include U-shaped magnetic cores 1312 arranged around a non-magnetic tube 1313 filled with a magnetic fluid 1314. Each of the magnetic cores has arm portions surrounded by windings 1315. The magnetic cores can be controlled by the control circuitry of PCB A 1302 to act as a controllable active magnetic field generating structure, which is used to generate a variable magnetic field that acts on the magnetic fluid, causing it to move, thus allowing the armature to be moved to the desired coordinate position and / or orientation.Details of the implementation of the 1311 electromagnetic positioner can be found in U.S. patent no. 6553,161.

[0058] In the conventional motion stabilization device described above, there is a problem, namely that the interface 1104 which receives the adapter 1105 requires a specific attachment point to align correctly with the interface.

[0059] Therefore, the embodiments below provide a universal adapter connection between the handle of the motion stabilization device in order to improve the user experience and reduce the difficulty and time required. necessary for configuring the system for use.

[0060] In one embodiment, this disclosure relates to a cosmetic applicator. The cosmetic applicator can be used for a variety of cosmetic applications, including, but not limited to, mascara, eyeliner, eyebrow products, lip products (lipstick, lip gloss, lip pencil, etc.), skin and / or hair products. In one embodiment, the cosmetic applicator may include an adapter, the adapter being able to connect the cosmetic applicator to a motion stabilizer. The motion stabilizer may be, for example, a handle that can prevent involuntary movements such as shaking or spasms. These movements can interfere with the application of cosmetic products and can also make general interaction with applicators or cosmetic tools difficult.For example, many cosmetic products require movement or twisting force to open or extrude the product. It can be difficult for users to achieve the necessary range of motion or precision to apply these forces to the cosmetic product. In one embodiment, the cosmetic applicator can hold a cosmetic product and can allow the appropriate force to be applied to the cosmetic product to open, close, mix, stir, agitate, extrude, or achieve other similar functions necessary for application.

[0061] Figure 4 shows an overview of a cosmetic attachment device comprising a motion stabilizer device 150 and a cosmetic adapter 100, according to one embodiment of this disclosure. The motion stabilizer device 150 may include at least one of a handle portion 151 and a hinge portion 152 (receiving portion). In one embodiment, the handle portion 151 is functionally similar to the handle portion 1101 shown in Figure 1. The receiving portion 152 may be functionally similar to the receiving portion 1102 shown in Figure 1. In one embodiment, the motion stabilizer device 150 as a whole is referred to herein as a motion stabilizer handle.In one embodiment, the cosmetic attachment device includes a cosmetic adapter 100, wherein the adapter 100 can be coupled to the receiving portion 152 of the motion stabilizer device 150. In one embodiment, the cosmetic adapter 100 carries a cosmetic tool or product. In one embodiment, the cosmetic adapter 100 can be a universal adapter configured to carry different types of cosmetic products. For example, the adapter 100 may include a ring-shaped cosmetic holder. Different configurations of the adapter 100 can be used for different cosmetic products and tools. For example, the... The shape and dimensions of the cosmetic holder can be configured for different cosmetic products. Adapter 100 can be easily attached to and removed from the motion stabilizer. The basic features and operation of the cosmetic fixing device in [Fig. 4] are described in pending US patent applications 18 / 091,882; 18 / 091,920; 18 / 091,843; 18 / 091,925; 18 / 148,957; 18 / 148,880; and 18 / 148,930.

[0062] In one embodiment, the adapter 100 is coupled to the receiving portion 152 of the motion stabilizer 150 via a magnetic attachment. The base or lower end of the adapter 100 may form a chamber that can be inserted onto a protrusion at the end of the receiving portion 152. The base of the adapter may include at least one magnet, which can be attracted to and attached to a magnet in the receiving portion 152. In one embodiment, the chamber formed at the base of the adapter 100 can be fitted onto the receiving portion 152 in more than one orientation. The chamber may be a hollow area inside the body of the adapter that is entirely contained by the walls of the adapter 110. The chamber may be approximately conical in shape. In one embodiment, the chamber is cylindrical. The chamber can be configured to fit onto a protrusion at one end of the motion stabilizer.The chamber can be used to align and guide the cosmetic applicator attachment onto the motion stabilizer. Fitting the chamber onto and around the protrusion at the end of the motion stabilizer limits lateral movement that would otherwise misalign the cosmetic applicator and the motion stabilizer. It may be easier for a user to align the chamber with the end of the motion stabilizer than to align the edges of a circular face of the adapter with the edges of a circular face of the motion stabilizer. The chamber may have rotational symmetry so that the cutout can be placed on the end of the motion stabilizer in any orientation or at any degree of rotation around the chamber's axis.In one embodiment, the lower end of the adapter body may include additional physical structures that can align, guide, and secure the adapter to the motion stabilizer.

[0063] Figure 5A shows an illustration of an adapter 100 according to one embodiment of this disclosure. The adapter 100 may include an adapter body 110, the adapter body 110 being able to be connected to the motion stabilizer 150. The adapter body 110 may be connected to, or form the base or body of, a cosmetic product holder 120. Each of these components will be discussed in more detail in this document. Different configurations of the adapter 100 can be used for different cosmetic products and tools. For example, the shape and dimensions of the adapter 100 can be adapted to suit different cosmetic products and tools. The dimensions of the cosmetic support 120 can be configured for different cosmetic products. The adapter 100 can be easily attached to and removed from the motion stabilizer, as shown here. In one embodiment, the adapter 100 can extend the range of motion of a cosmetic applicator to allow the movements necessary for applying the cosmetic product. In some embodiments, the adapter 100 can be attached to a post or trolley for other actions to be performed with a cosmetic product held by the applicator.

[0064] Figure 5B is a transparent side view of the adapter 100, according to one embodiment of this disclosure. The adapter body 110 can be approximately formed as a straight cylinder. One end of the adapter can be attached to one end of a motion stabilizer. The motion stabilizer can be a cylindrical rod forming a handle that the user can grasp. The first end can also be referred to hereafter as the lower end or base of the adapter. The lower end of the adapter body 110 can include at least one magnet, which can be attracted to and attached to a magnet in the motion stabilizer. The lower end of the adapter body 110 can include additional physical structures that can align, guide, and secure the adapter to the motion stabilizer.In one embodiment, the lower end of the adapter body 110 can form a chamber 112, as shown in the transparent view of [Fig. 5B]. The chamber can be a hollow area within the adapter body 110 that is entirely contained by the walls of the adapter 110. The chamber 112 can be approximately conical in shape. In one embodiment, the cutout can be cylindrical. The chamber 112 can be configured to fit onto a projection at one end of the motion stabilizer. The chamber 112 can be used to align and guide the attachment of the cosmetic applicator onto the motion stabilizer. Fitting the chamber 112 onto and around the projection at the end of the motion stabilizer limits lateral movement that would misalign the cosmetic applicator and the motion stabilizer.It may be easier for a user to align chamber 112 with the end of the motion stabilizer than for the user to align the edges of the circular face of the adapter with the edges of the circular face of the motion stabilizer. Chamber 112 may have rotational symmetry so that the cutout can be placed on the end of the motion stabilizer in any orientation or at any degree of rotation around the axis of chamber 112. At one end, a magnet can be attached to the end of the chamber, inside the adapter body. The magnet at the end of the cutout can be attached to a... magnet at the end of the projection at the end of the motion stabilizer.

[0065] The cosmetic holder 120 can be located at a second end of the cosmetic applicator. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 can be a ring into which a tool or cosmetic product can be inserted. Many cosmetic tools, such as mascara wands, lipstick applicators, concealer applicators, and cosmetic pencils, are approximately cylindrical. In one embodiment, the ring can secure the cosmetic tools to the wider part of the tool. A ring-shaped holder can also hold cosmetic tools of various shapes, such as cubes. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 can have one or more projections along the inner wall of the cosmetic holder and extending outward to the center of the cosmetic holder.Contact and friction between one or more protrusions and an inserted cosmetic tool can result in a more secure grip or hold of the cosmetic holder around the inserted tool. In some embodiments, the inner wall of the cosmetic holder 120 can be coated with a material that can improve the grip or hold of the cosmetic holder around the inserted tool. The improved grip may be due to a property of the material, such as a coefficient of friction or a deformation of the material. For example, the inner wall may be coated with rubber or silicone. In one embodiment, the coating material may be a textured material with grooves, ridges, bumps, or similar features that prevent movement or slippage of the cosmetic tool once it is inserted into the cosmetic holder 120.

[0066] Various cosmetic holder configurations are compatible with the cosmetic applicator 100. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder may be an open ring or a C-shaped cosmetic holder. In one embodiment, the holder may be a loop, in which the ends of the loop may overlap. In one embodiment, the holder may be one or more coiled loops. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 may be a tube or a sheath forming a chamber inside the tube, with a cosmetic tool or product that can be inserted into the chamber. In one embodiment, the tube may be closed at one end to contain a cosmetic tool or product within the chamber. In one example, the tube may be approximately cylindrical. In one example, the sheath may be a partial cylinder, such as a half-cylinder that does not completely wrap around the inserted cosmetic.In one embodiment, the size of the cosmetic holder 120 can be modified. For example, the cosmetic holder 120 can be a round support, in which the diameter of the support can be modified to accommodate different cosmetic tools. A pushing force on a point located along the outside of the tool holder can compress it to a smaller diameter. A tensile force applied to a point along the inside of the tool holder can extend the tool holder to a larger diameter. In one embodiment, the force can be applied at a single point along the tool holder to allow for one-handed diameter adjustment. In one implementation, a user can receive multiple cosmetic product holders, each holder having different dimensions or shapes for different tools or cosmetic products. A cosmetic holder 120 can be removed from the adapter body 110 and replaced with another suitable configuration.

[0067] In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 can be attached to the adapter body 110 with a joint 115, such as a ball joint. The ball joint can allow movement of the cosmetic holder 120 relative to the adapter body 110. For example, the cosmetic holder 120 can be rotated in place or can pivot to form an angle with the adapter body 110. The joint can be configured for continuous movement of the cosmetic holder 120 or for discrete movement steps. In some embodiments, the movement of the cosmetic holder 120 can be constrained. For example, the adapter 110 can form a walled channel, in which the joint is disposed inside the walled channel. The walls of the channel can constrain the movement of the joint and / or the cosmetic holder 120. In one embodiment, the joint 115 can be a motorized component.The 120 cosmetic holder can move thanks to the motorized component without requiring external force from the user.

[0068] Figure 5C is a view of the underside of the adapter body 110, according to an embodiment of this disclosure. The underside of the adapter body 110 can be approximately a circle since the adapter is a right cylinder. A magnet 111 can be disposed on the underside of the adapter. In one embodiment, the magnet 111 can be a uniformly ring-shaped magnet, as shown in Figure 5C. For example, the magnet 111 can be in the shape of a washer. The ring-shaped magnet 111 can be attracted to and attached to a magnet disposed along the circumference of one end of the motion stabilizer. In some embodiments, the adapter body 110 can be attached to the motion stabilizer in any orientation due to the ring-shaped magnet 111.The adapter body 110 can be attached to the motion stabilizer by any rotation of the adapter 100 around the adapter's central axis. In one embodiment, the adapter 100 can be a universal adapter and can attach a magnetic end of the motion stabilizer in any orientation, regardless of the positioning and / or polarity of the magnets at the end of the motion stabilizer. Any part of the ring-shaped magnet 111 at the base of the adapter can come into contact with the... Magnets on the motion stabilizer to attach the adapter to the motion stabilizer.

[0069] The ring-shaped magnet 111 of this disclosure offers an advantage over traditional motion stabilizer adapters. For example, some motion stabilizers may have two magnets located diametrically opposite each other on a circular face of the motion stabilizer. Most traditional adapters include two magnets at the base for attaching to a motion stabilizer. The adapter can only be attached to the motion stabilizer if the two magnets on the motion stabilizer align with the two magnets in the same position on the adapter. In some versions, the polarity of the magnets on the motion stabilizer may also differ, so that each magnet on the motion stabilizer will be attracted to only one of the two magnets on the adapter.The orientation limitations of traditional adapters can pose problems for users attempting to attach them to motion stabilizers. For example, users may lack the precise movement needed to align the magnets correctly for attachment. Furthermore, the orientation limitations of traditional adapters also restrict the orientation of the tool or instrument held by the applicator. When applying cosmetics to or near the face, it may be desirable for the applicator to be able to be attached at various angles and orientations, or for its orientation to be adjustable. For instance, some mascara wands are curved. The mascara wand needs to be in contact with the eyelashes so that the curvature of the applicator matches the curvature of the eye.Achieving this position can be very difficult if the adapter holding the mascara wand can only be attached to the motion stabilizer in one orientation, as with traditional adapters that have a limited number of magnets in predefined positions. In contrast, an adapter with a ring magnet, as shown in [Fig. 5C], can be attached to the motion stabilizer in any orientation. The adapter can be rotated until the mascara wand, or any other cosmetic tool, is in the desired orientation for application, and then attached to the motion stabilizer with contact between the ring magnet and any magnet on the face of the motion stabilizer. The motion stabilizer can be maneuvered into different positions while the attached applicator and cosmetic product also move.For example, the orientation of the attached applicator and the cosmetic product can change when the user applies the cosmetic product. Attaching the applicator to the motion stabilizer without orientation increases the range of movement of the attached cosmetic.

[0070] In one embodiment, the adapter body 110 may include a gear ring, teeth, or similar alignment structures 116. The alignment structures 116 may be located at the base of the adapter and may be concentric with the ring-shaped magnet 111. In one embodiment, the alignment structures may be located along the inner wall of the cutout at the lower end of the adapter. In some embodiments, the alignment structures 116 may insert or interlock with corresponding alignment structures on the motion stabilizer when the adapter is attached to the motion stabilizer. The alignment structures 116 may limit the rotation of the cosmetic applicator once the adapter has been attached to the motion stabilizer.Some motion stabilizers can rotate to counteract any rotational force applied to the stabilizer, ensuring that an attachment to the stabilizer (such as a cosmetic applicator) remains stable. This anti-rotation mechanism can be helpful for users who experience sudden, involuntary movements while holding the stabilizer. In one embodiment, the alignment structures 116 may be a ring of raised studs or tooth-like structures that fit into corresponding grooves or receptacles on the end of the motion stabilizer attached to the base of the adapter.In one embodiment, the alignment structures 116 may be a ring of recessed structures or a combination of raised and recessed structures that can fit into corresponding raised and / or recessed structures at the end of the motion stabilizer. Fitting the alignment structures 116 into complementary structures at the end of the motion stabilizer can fix the cosmetic applicator in place when the adapter has been attached to the motion stabilizer. Any rotation of the motion stabilizer to prevent unintentional movement of the user will therefore be transmitted to the cosmetic applicator to maintain the orientation of the cosmetic applicator once the cosmetic applicator is attached to the motion stabilizer.

[0071] The alignment structures 116 can provide a range of discrete orientations to which the adapter can be attached to the motion stabilizer. For example, the adapter can only be attached to the motion stabilizer when each of the alignment structures 116 in [Fig. 5C] is aligned with a corresponding embedded structure in the motion stabilizer. If the alignment structures 116 are not aligned with and are not located within the embedded structures, the adapter will not be properly attached to the motion stabilizer. However, the symmetry of the repeated alignment structures 116 can still allow the adapter to be attached at a number of rotations (e.g., 10+ rotation options). for easy attachment.

[0072] Figure 5D shows how the adapter 100 holds a specific cosmetic applicator, such as a lipstick applicator, within the cosmetic holder 120. While a lipstick applicator is shown, the cosmetic holder can hold many other types of applicators, such as mascara and nail polish applicators. Unlike the adapter 1105 in Figure 1, the cosmetic holder 120 can be seen holding the applicator perpendicular to the handle of the motion stabilizer 150. This allows for a more relaxed and ergonomic hand position for the user when using the cosmetic applicator.

[0073] Figure 5A is an illustration of the adapter 100 with a cross-sectional view of the adapter body 110, according to an embodiment of this disclosure. In one embodiment, the adapter body 110 may comprise an outer shell 113, the outer shell 113 enclosing an inner body 114. The inner body 114 may be attached to a motion stabilizer by means of the magnetic attachment described herein with reference to Figure 5C. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 may be attached to the outer shell 113. The attachment of the cosmetic holder 120 to the outer shell 113 may allow movement of the cosmetic holder 120 that is independent of the movement of the inner body or the motion stabilizer. The attachment of the cosmetic holder 120 to the outer shell 113 can be clamped within the adapter body 110.In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 can be attached to the outer shell 113 along a series of notches in the outer shell. The notches can be, for example, a series of indentations, grooves, teeth or similar features, such as the indentation structures 117 in [Fig. 0A]. The position of the cosmetic holder 120 can be changed by moving the cosmetic holder 120 linearly along the series of notches, so that the cosmetic holder 120 can be secured in place on each of the notch structures 117. In one embodiment, the base of the cosmetic holder 120 may have a projection that fits into each of the notch structures 117. The projection can snap into place when positioned at the level of or against each of the notch structures 117 to temporarily lock the cosmetic holder 120 in an angular position within a single plane.The face plane (opening) of the cosmetic holder 120 can remain the same while its angular position can be adjusted. A force can be applied by a user to position the cosmetic holder 120 on one of the notched structures 117. The cosmetic holder 120 can thus be tilted relative to the central axis of the adapter body 110 and the attached motion stabilizer. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 can be attached to the adapter body 110 with a 2-axis adapter. The angle of the cosmetic holder 120 can be adjusted as described in [reference missing]. with reference to the notch structures 117. Furthermore, or alternatively, the plane of the opening of the cosmetic holder 120 can also be adjusted by rotating the cosmetic holder 120 for two-axis movement. For example, the cosmetic holder 120 can rotate axially at or near its attachment point to the adapter body 110. In one embodiment, the rotation of the cosmetic holder 120 can be modulated with notches or similar structures to provide a number of fixed rotation positions for the cosmetic holder 120. For example, the cosmetic holder 120 or the adapter body 110 may include an internal gear or ratchet structure, the cosmetic holder 120 being able to be rotated by several degrees to engage the teeth of the internal gear. The cosmetic holder 120 can be temporarily locked in the rotational position when the teeth are engaged.

[0074] Figure 6B is a side view of the adapter 100 with a cutaway view of the adapter body 110, according to an embodiment of this disclosure. The inner body 114 of the adapter body 110 can form the chamber 112, as described herein. Various shapes and dimensions of the chamber 112 are compatible with the present adapter 100. In one embodiment, the outer shell 113 can extend beyond the end of the inner body 114. The outer shell 113 can surround the attachment point of the adapter 100 to a motion stabilizer or other compatible structure and can prevent the adapter 100 from being displaced from the attached structure. In some embodiments, the magnetic ring can be formed at the base of the inner body 114.

[0075] Figure 6C shows a transparent view of the outer shell 113 of the adapter 100, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The outer shell 113 can form a cavity around the inner body 114. In one embodiment, the inner body 114 can rotate relative to the outer shell 113 while the outer shell 113 and / or the cosmetic holder 120 are fixed in place and do not rotate. For example, the inner body 114 can rotate to prevent unintentional rotation of the motion stabilizer or adapter 100. The rotation of the inner body 114 is not transferred to the cosmetic holder 120 because the cosmetic holder 120 is not in contact with the inner body 114. Similarly, the fit of the outer shell 113 around the inner body 114 may include a gap between the outer shell 113 and the walls of the inner body 114 so that the rotation of the inner body 114 is not transferred to the outer shell 113.

[0076] Figure 6D shows a transparent view of the inner body 114 of the adapter 100, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. The inner shell 114 can form the chamber 112, as described herein. The chamber 112 can extend to the top of the inner body. In one embodiment, the chamber 112 can be formed as a central cylinder with two cylinders adjacent to the central cylinder, as illustrated in [Fig. 6D]. The shape and symmetry of chamber 112 can depend on the intended attachment to a motion stabilizer or other structure. In one embodiment, the shape of chamber 112 can depend on the desired motion of adapter 100. For example, a chamber with infinite symmetry can be attached to a motion stabilizer in any orientation and remain stationary while the motion stabilizer rotates. In another example, a chamber with limited axes of symmetry can result in a fixed number of orientations in which the adapter can be attached to the motion stabilizer.

[0077] In one embodiment, attaching the cosmetic applicator to the motion stabilizer can activate at least one sensor to indicate that the adapter body 110 has been correctly attached to the motion stabilizer. This at least one sensor can be, for example, a Hall effect sensor that can detect and respond to the magnetic field produced by the adapter and / or the motion stabilizer. In one embodiment, this at least one sensor can be a pressure-activated sensor. Alternative sensors known to those skilled in the art may be compatible with the systems and devices disclosed herein. In one embodiment, this at least one sensor can detect when the cosmetic applicator has not been correctly attached to the motion stabilizer. For example, a Hall effect sensor can detect a partial magnetic field from the adapter with a magnitude lower than expected.The partial magnetic field may indicate that part of the ring-shaped magnet on the adapter is physically shielded or has not produced a magnetic field. In one embodiment, data from at least one sensor can be used to notify a user to inspect the cosmetic applicator or to reattach the cosmetic applicator.

[0078] In one embodiment, the adapter 100 may include one or more sensors and / or an integrated circuit. The one or more sensors may include, in particular, pressure sensors, light sensors, weight sensors, voltage or force sensors, a Hall effect sensor, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, or the like. The data from the one or more sensors may be used to identify when a cosmetic product has been inserted or attached to the cosmetic applicator. In one embodiment, the data from the one or more sensors may be used to identify the physical characteristics of an attached cosmetic product, such as its size, shape, or weight.In one embodiment, the data from one or more sensors may relate to a movement of the cosmetic applicator 100 or to a movement of an attached component, such as the attached cosmetic product or the motion stabilizer. In one embodiment, the data from one or more sensors may be transmitted from. The cosmetic applicator is connected to a remote device, such as a server or user device. In one embodiment, the cosmetic applicator can receive data, including instructions, from the same remote device or from a second remote device. Further detailed network information is available.

[0079] In one embodiment, the system described above includes automatic adapter detection functionality to activate protocols specific to the motion stabilization device 150. For example, the motion stabilization device 150 can automatically detect different adapters used for different cosmetic products such as lipstick, mascara, etc. As soon as the adapter is connected to the handle of the motion stabilization device 150, the handle automatically recognizes which type of adapter (e.g., lipstick or mascara) is attached and loads a specific set of protocols developed for that specific application.

[0080] Figure 7 shows a functional diagram of the communication hardware elements in the stabilizer 150 and the adapter. The adapter includes a communication interface 701, and the receiving part of the stabilizer includes a communication interface 702. In one example, the communication interfaces are a near-field communication (NFC) interface (where element 702 is a radio-frequency identification (RFID) reader configured to read an RFID tag 701). In addition, the receiving part of the stabilizer includes the Hall effect sensor 704 described above. Thus, the RFID reader can be activated in response to the Hall effect sensor 704 detecting the insertion of the adapter 100. Alternatively, each of the interfaces 701 and 702 functions as a Bluetooth interface in another example, such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) interfaces.

[0081] The interface 702 in the receiving part is connected to the PCBA 703 which is coupled to or includes a memory 705 which stores various protocol information.

[0082] Once the device 150 recognizes the presence of the adapter 100, it receives information about the specific adapter type based on information stored on the communication interface 701. The communication interface 702 then communicates the information to the PCBA 703, which stores specific protocols in the device software that target specific gestures and movements for the specific connected adapter (i.e., if the lipstick adapter is attached, the device will use the lipstick gesture protocols).

[0083] For example, as shown in [Fig. 8], a first set of 801 protocols for a lipstick may include parameters specific to the initial orientation angles of the stabilizer as well as settings for pressure sensitivity, power consumption, and initial lipstick deployment. While a A second, different set of 802 protocols for a mascara may include different specific parameters, initial stabilizer orientation angles, as well as pressure sensitivity, power consumption, and mascara saturation settings.

[0084] There may be several adjustments to each protocol depending on the adapter and applicator. For example, with lipstick, it is desirable to remove the axial rotation of the adapter relative to the handle, as this can sometimes cause unwanted or unexpected movements for the user. It is also desirable to limit flexing and create an initial position, as the hand position may differ for lipstick and mascara. In addition, it is desirable to modify the speed at which the motors move so that mascara is slightly slower to reduce the risk of involuntary movements near the eyes. Here is an example of additional lipstick protocol features: • Disable axial rotation of the adapter relative to the handle • Set the motor speed to 100% for fast settings • Flexible adapter on the "initial" angular adjustment for better application orientation

[0085] Figure 9 represents a flowchart for performing automatic detection as indicated above. The steps are carried out at the level of the motion stabilization device 150. At step 9001, the communication interface 702 detects the presence of the adapter 100. For example, when the communication interface 702 is an RFID reader and the communication interface 701 is an RFID tag, these elements can perform a first handshake before establishing a communication channel, as understood in art.

[0086] In step 9002, after the establishment of a communication channel between the communication interfaces 701 and 702, the communication interface 701 transmits identification information to the communication interface 702. The identification information indicates the type of adapter, as shown above.

[0087] At step 9003, the communication interface 702 transmits the received identification information to the PCBA 703 located on board the stabilizing device, and the PCBA 703 retrieves the protocols stored in a local memory that corresponds to the type of adapter identified.

[0088] At step 9003, the PCBA 703 controls the configuration of the motion stabilization device in accordance with the recorded protocols after detecting that the adapter is attached to the motion stabilization device.

[0089] With the above procedures, the motion stabilization device will not only recognize the presence of an adapter, but it will also determine whether it is a specific adapter used for lipstick, mascara, or other products. Once The device recognizes the presence of the adapter, it uses specific protocols in the device software that target specific gestures and movements for the specific adapter connected (i.e. if the lipstick adapter is attached, the device will use the lipstick gesture protocols)

[0090] In one embodiment, the size of the opening (orifice) of the cosmetic holder 120 can be adjustable to provide a more universal cosmetic applicator holder that can hold a wide variety of tools and cosmetic products, which may vary considerably in size. Companies may manufacture the same type of cosmetic product with different dimensions for different product lines or stock keeping units (SKUs). It may be preferable for the cosmetic holder 120 to be adjustable while maintaining a secure fit and a range of motion that is ensured by an attached motion stabilization device 150 and any rotation mechanism. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 can expand or contract to fit around an inserted cosmetic tool.In one embodiment, the opening of the cosmetic holder 120 can be self-adjusting to minimize user interaction, which may be difficult for users with limited mobility or fine motor skills. In another embodiment, the opening can be adjusted using a button, switch, tab, strap, gear, or similar mechanical component. It may be easier for a user to actuate a mechanical component connected to the cosmetic holder 120 rather than directly adjusting the holder itself. The opening of the cosmetic holder 120 can be adjustable for a ring-shaped holder 120, as shown in Figure 5. The mechanisms described herein can also be compatible with a C-shaped, elliptical or oval, cylindrical, or other type of cosmetic holder.

[0091] In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 may include an elastic or spring-loaded band, wherein the band can stretch to widen the opening of the cosmetic holder 120 and can retract to narrow the opening of the cosmetic holder 120. In one embodiment, the elastic or spring-loaded band may form the circumference of the cosmetic holder 120. For example, the cosmetic holder 120 may be a metal helical spring. The spring can stretch to fit around a cosmetic tool or product that is inserted into the opening and can contract until the spring is in contact with the inserted cosmetic tool. The spring thus ensures a secure fit around the inserted cosmetic tool.

[0092] Figure 10 illustrates a cosmetic holder 120 in which the cosmetic holder 120 is formed by a first arm 121 and a second arm 122. The first arm 121 and the second arm 122 can be connected at a hinge point 123. In one embodiment, the hinge 123 can be a locking hinge (by (For example, a self-locking hinge). In one example, the hinge may include a ratchet mechanism so that the first arm 121 and the second arm 122 can be secured in place at incremental positions between a closed position and an open position. A closed position may refer to a position in which the first arm 121 and the second arm 122 are in contact with or encircle an inserted cosmetic tool. An open position may refer to a position in which at least one of the first arm 121 and the second arm 122 is not in contact with or encircles an inserted cosmetic tool. In one embodiment, the first arm 121 and the second arm 122 may meet or overlap around an inserted cosmetic tool in the closed position to secure the cosmetic tool. In another embodiment, the first arm 121 and the second arm 122 may secure an inserted cosmetic tool in the closed position without overlapping.For example, the first arm 121 and the second arm 122 can form an arc around a portion of the inserted cosmetic tool.

[0093] In one embodiment, the hinge 123 may be located along the length of the first arm rather than at its end. Each end of the first arm 121 may extend the hinge, as illustrated in [Fig. 10]. The first arm 121 and the second arm 122 may be in the same plane, or one arm may be stacked on top of the other. When the cosmetic holder 120 is open, one end of the first arm 121 may extend into or toward the central opening (orifice) formed by the first arm 121 and the second arm 122. When a cosmetic tool is inserted into the opening, the cosmetic tool may push the first end of the first arm 121 to rotate the first arm 121 into the closed position. The first arm 121 may rotate freely until the inserted cosmetic tool is secured by both the first arm 121 and the second arm 122.In this way, the user does not need to take any additional steps to adjust the opening size. Inserting the cosmetic tool into the cosmetic holder 120 automatically rotates the holder's arms into the closed position to secure the tool. In one embodiment, the cosmetic tool can be removed by moving it along the central axis of the cosmetic holder 120 to slide it out of the holder.

[0094] In one embodiment, the opening of the cosmetic holder 120 can be adjusted via a ratchet mechanism. Figure 11 illustrates a first arm 121 of the cosmetic holder and a second arm 122 of the cosmetic holder forming a ratchet mechanism. In one embodiment, the first arm 121 may have one or more teeth 130 along an external surface or edge. In one embodiment, the one or more teeth may be asymmetrical. The second arm may have one or more structures configured to overlap and engage the teeth. or several teeth of the first arm. In one embodiment, the second arm may form a ratchet 131 or a click, wherein the edge of the ratchet 131 can fit into a space between one or more teeth of the first arm to secure the first arm to the second arm and lock the first and second arms in place. The ratchet may be spring-loaded. The opening of the cosmetic holder 120 can be narrowed by pushing the first arm toward the second arm. In one embodiment, the second arm may have one or more holes, grooves, notches, or cutouts along the inner wall of the second arm, with one or more teeth of the first arm able to hook onto one or more structures of the second arm to secure the first arm to the second arm.

[0095] Figure 12 illustrates a spring-loaded ring clasp formed by the first arm 121 and the second arm 122. The first arm 121 and / or the second arm 122 may be spring-loaded. In one embodiment, the second arm 122 may be hollow, and the first arm 121 of the cosmetic holder may fit into the second arm 122 of the cosmetic holder. The first arm 121 may include an internal spring 132 at the hinge 123. The internal spring 132 is shown in Figure 12 by way of illustration. The first arm 121 may also include a lever 133. When the lever 133 is pulled, the first arm can compress the spring 132 and open the cosmetic holder in a semicircle. In one embodiment, the first and second arms can hold the semicircle in the closed position when a cosmetic tool is inserted. The spring 132 can extend until the first arm is fixed, or stopped by, the inserted cosmetic tool in the closed position.In this way, the first arm can be held at a variable distance from the second arm to secure inserted cosmetic tools of varying sizes. In one embodiment, the lever 133 can be attached to a button or handle to provide an easier actuation mechanism for a user with limited mobility.

[0096] In one embodiment, the opening of the cosmetic holder 120 can be adjusted by rotating the cosmetic holder. Figure 13 illustrates a rotating cosmetic holder 120. In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 may comprise an outer shell 140 surrounding a ring 141, in which the ring surrounds and is coupled to one or more internal jaws 142. The internal jaws 142 may be approximately parallel to the central axis of the outer shell and the ring or may be inclined with respect to the central axis. The inner surface of the ring 141 may form threads or teeth 143, in which the threads or teeth may couple with corresponding threads or teeth on the sides of one or more internal jaws 142.The corresponding threads on the sides of one or more internal jaws can be inclined relative to the central axis of the ring to form a tapered or conical thread. When the shell... As the external part 140 rotates, the ring 141 also rotates. The threads 143 of the ring engage with the tapered threads of the internal jaws, causing the internal jaws 142 to move laterally due to the rotational force applied to the ring. The lateral movement of the ring 141 along the inclined threads pushes the internal jaws 142 towards each other or away from each other. For example, a clockwise rotation of the outer shell 140 can cause the inner jaws 142 to move closer together, thus narrowing the opening of the cosmetic holder 120. A counterclockwise rotation of the outer shell 140 can cause the inner jaws 142 to move apart, thus widening the opening of the cosmetic holder 120. A cosmetic tool can be inserted between the inner jaws, and the outer shell can be rotated in a first direction until the inner jaws are in contact with the inserted cosmetic tool and secure it.The outer shell can then be rotated in the opposite direction to separate the inner jaws and remove the inserted cosmetic tool.

[0097] In one embodiment, the cosmetic holder 120 may comprise magnetic cores arranged around a non-magnetic tube, which is filled with a magnetic fluid. Each of the magnetic cores may comprise arm portions that are surrounded by windings. The magnetic cores may be controlled by the control circuitry in the PCB A 1302 to act as a controllable active magnetic field generating structure, which is used to generate a variable magnetic field that acts on the magnetic fluid, causing its displacement, as described herein with reference to the electromagnetic positioner 1311 of [Fig. 3B]. The displacement of the fluid may cause the movement of a first or second arm of the cosmetic holder 120 to a desired position to widen or narrow the opening of the cosmetic holder 120.

[0098] In one embodiment, an internal surface of the cosmetic holder 120 may be coated with a flexible or elastic material, such as foam or rubber, as padding. The internal coating of the cosmetic holder 120 can provide a flexible buffer to accommodate different sizes and shapes of cosmetic tools. The internal coating can secure an inserted cosmetic tool by fitting around and against it, even if the cosmetic holder 120 is not in contact with the inserted tool due to differences in size or shape. In one embodiment, the internal coating may be bonded or removably coupled to the internal surface of the cosmetic holder 120. In one embodiment, several internal coatings of different thicknesses may be provided for a cosmetic holder.In one embodiment, an internal coating can be replaced by a coating of a suitable thickness to accommodate an inserted cosmetic tool. The internal coating can be compatible with any of the following: embodiments of cosmetic holder 120 presented in the disclosure.

[0099] In one embodiment, a portion of the cosmetic holder 120 may be connected to a button, switch, tab, strap, chain, lever, gear, or similar mechanical component. A user can adjust the opening of the cosmetic holder 120 by engaging the button, switch, etc., or by pulling on a strap or chain. In one example, a chain may be attached to or form an arm of the cosmetic holder. Pulling on the chain can rotate the arm to reduce the opening of the cosmetic holder. Similarly, in some embodiments, the cosmetic holder 120 may be connected to a mechanical component that can release or disengage the cosmetic holder. For example, a tab may be connected to a first arm of the cosmetic holder. Pressing the tab can cause a pushing force to be applied to the first arm to rotate it into the open position so that an inserted cosmetic tool can be removed.These mechanical components can be more easily engaged and operated by users with limited mobility who may not be able to directly manipulate the cosmetic holder 120.

[0100] In one embodiment, the opening adjustment can be automated via circuitry in the motion stabilization device 150 and / or the adapter 100. For example, the circuitry 703, 701 can use sensor data to determine the type of cosmetic tool inserted into the cosmetic holder 120. The type of cosmetic tool can be associated with an opening size. The cosmetic adapter 100 can include a motor, in which the motor can be configured to rotate the first or second arm of the cosmetic holder 120 to change the opening size. In one embodiment, the motor can be configured to rotate the ring in [Fig. 13] to change the opening size. In one embodiment, the circuitry 703, 701 can receive a protocol associated with a type of cosmetic tool or with a SKU associated with a certain cosmetic product based on sensor data.The protocol may include an opening size associated with the tool or cosmetic product. The cosmetic adapter 100 can then modify the opening size according to the received protocol so that the cosmetic holder 120 adjusts around the cosmetic tool in the closed position. In one embodiment, the cosmetic adapter 100 can enlarge the cosmetic holder 120 in the open position when the inserted cosmetic tool is no longer in use. For example, pressure sensors in the cosmetic adapter 100 can indicate that an inserted cosmetic tool is not in use because the cosmetic tool is not in contact with the user. A motor can then enlarge the cosmetic holder 120, for example, by rotating an arm of the cosmetic holder in the open position or by rotating the ring in [Fig. 13] to separate the internal jaws.The automatic opening of the 120 cosmetic holder can facilitate the removal of the cosmetic tool. inserted.

[0101] Obviously, many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the foregoing. It is therefore understood that, within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be implemented in a manner other than as specifically described herein.
