System and method for vehicle diagnostics with synchronized vehicle acoustic and vibration data with on-board diagnostic data

A system and method for ΔI-powered engine diagnostics combine OBD-II data, high-frequency sound, and vibration analysis to detect engine wear and mechanical faults. A detachable puck sensor in the engine bay captures sound and vibration signals, while an OBD-II module collects engine performance metrics. A smartphone app collects and uploads data to a backend AI engine, where Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) aligns event-driven or asynchronous data and time series data from multiple sources, ensuring accurate feature fusion. Machine learning models then detect engine wear, belt degradation, knocking, and bearing faults, generating a diagnostic report with severity assessments and predictive maintenance recommendations. By integrating multi-modal sensor data, this system enhances early-stage fault detection beyond traditional OBD-II diagnostics, offering greater accuracy in assessing physical wear conditions and optimizing vehicle maintenance.

Computerized system and method for wearable identity management

Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a novel cross-session authentication framework that enables secure local and / or network sessions to be effectuated via biometric tracking via a wearable device (e.g., smart ring). In some implementations, when a user wearing a smart ring is authenticated with a first secure resource (e.g., a computer system such as a smart phone application associated with the smart ring), such authentication can be maintained and leveraged to access other resources that are separately being securely held. The smart ring, when properly worn, can monitor biometrics (e.g., vital signs) of a user, and based therefrom, determine if and / or when the smart ring is removed / manipulated from the user's finder. Until the smart ring is removed, the smart ring's confirmation of being worn by the user can be leveraged as an identification token that can enable the user access to other securely held information.

Systems and methods for quantitative diagnosis of anemia

A smartphone-based hemoglobin (Hgb) assessment application quantitatively analyzes pallor in patient-sourced photos using image analysis algorithms to enable a noninvasive, accurate quantitative smartphone app for detecting anemia. A user takes a photo of his / her fingernail beds using the app and receives an accurate displayed Hgb level. Since fingernails do not contain melanocytes, the primary source of color of these anatomical features is blood Hgb. At the same time, quality control software minimizes the impact of common fingernail irregularities (e.g. leukonychia and camera flash reflection) on Hgb level measurement. Metadata recorded upon capturing the image is leveraged for determining a users' Hgb level thereby eliminating the need for external equipment. A personalized calibration of image data with measured Hgb levels improves the accuracy of the application.
