Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies are unable to reliably detect and measure vital fields emitted by organisms due to the lack of scientific instruments capable of sensing dynamic magnetic components, leading to skepticism and limited understanding of biological interactions.
Innovation Solution
A non-thermal plasma emitter array converts torsion waves from vital fields into electromagnetic waves, which are then analyzed using millimeter-wave electronics to provide feedback for therapeutic applications, employing a dielectric barrier discharge array on a thin substrate with an air-permeable sheet for skin contact and sensitive signal processing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional detection instruments are used, then device simplicity is maintained, but the ability to detect vital fields is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces non-thermal plasma as an intermediary medium that converts undetectable torsion waves into detectable electromagnetic waves. The plasma acts as a transducer between the vital field (torsion waves) and conventional detection instruments, enabling measurement without requiring instruments capable of directly sensing dynamic magnetic components.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces direct mechanical/electromagnetic detection of vital fields with an indirect optical/electromagnetic detection method. By converting torsion waves to electromagnetic waves through plasma interaction, the system substitutes unproven direct detection mechanisms with well-established electromagnetic wave detection technology.
2Reliability
If non-thermal plasma is applied to skin for treatment, then therapeutic effects are achieved, but skin contact is required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from direct contact (zero-dimensional surface contact) to near-field interaction (three-dimensional space-based treatment). By generating non-thermal plasma in the space above the skin surface, the system enables therapeutic effects without physical contact, adding a spatial dimension to the treatment approach.
3Measurement precision
If plasma emitters are used for vital field detection, then detection precision is improved, but real-time feedback capability is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a closed-loop feedback system where the plasma emitter array detects vital field characteristics and the controller adjusts plasma generation parameters in real-time based on detected signals. This feedback mechanism enables both precise measurement and immediate therapeutic adjustment, resolving the contradiction between detection precision and real-time responsiveness.

AI summary
A single non-thermal atmospheric plasma generation device is used to detect and analyze vital fields of a living subject to determine the presence of a condition, such as an illness or injury, and responsively modify characteristics of the plasma to treat, heal, or alleviate the condition. The device includes a capacitance dielectric discharge array of plasma emitters, and a controller having a power supply, a transformer, and circuit components for driving the transformer at a resonant frequency of the plasma emitters to cause the plurality of plasma emitters to ionize surrounding air and produce the non-thermal plasma. The resonant frequency is around 60 GHz and harmonics thereof. A receiver of the device recovers frequency mixing products from the plasma, which are extracted by signal processing circuitry; signals in the VHF and UHF bands are extracted and analyzed to determine whether signatures of particular vital fields are present.
