Finger-mounted physiology sensor

The described physiology sensor is worn on a single finger to capture one or more different physiological signals and has a sensor body including first and second raised mounds, protruding from its surface and being longitudinally spaced-apart such as to define a transverse air gap therebetween. The mounds each retain electrodes which abut palmar surfaces of the single finger. The sensor also has one or more physiological sensing devices housed within the body, including a skin conductance sensing device. The sensor can also have at least one of a temperature sensing device, and a photoplethysmography sensing device. A processor is housed within the body and communicates with the electrodes and the sensing devices to apply an electrical excitation thereto, and to process the physiological measurements.

Distal phalangergonic finger device

A finger weight that is functional. A normal sized, weighted sphere is attached to an end of a cylinder-shaped body. The weighted sphere and body has a hard particulate material to provide a resistance transfer through the body. A flattened surface and groove are provided in both the implement and the assistive implement. The flattened surface of the implement of the body half distant from the sphere is cinctured in the groove by an adhesive resinous strip to the non-palmar surface of the distal finger digit. The flattened surface along the entire length of the assistive implement is cinctured in the groove by an adhesive resinous strip to the proximal interphalangeal joint. The operation of the finger weight is extending and flexing the distal finger digit while restricting the extending and flexing of the proximal interphalangeal joint.
