Detailed Description
Blow drying (styling hair using a hair dryer with a brush while drying the hair) is common and can result in hair damage, such as roughness, drying, brittleness, hair loss, and eventually hair breakage. Studies have shown that the degree of hair damage increases with increasing temperature (and increasing temperature as the distance between the hair dryer and the hair decreases or as the concentrator nozzle is used) and drying duration.
The applicant has appreciated that by monitoring the comb pattern and aggressiveness of the hair and by connecting a brush/comb and a blower that are wirelessly instrumented, an automatic and intelligent feedback loop can be established between the two devices. The system can limit hair damage and provide feedback to the user and instruct s/he to improve her comb technology for optimal blow-drying/styling performance. The system may also provide advice regarding personalized or best fit products to improve blow drying and styling performance and reduce/limit hair damage.
Embodiments of the present invention have the following objects:
● Monitoring the aggressiveness of the hair and the comb pattern/movement,
● Controlling blower temperature and air flow
● Providing feedback (real-time or non-real-time) and guiding the user's comb/blow drying technique
● Improving hair styling techniques-enabling users to achieve optimal blow-drying/styling performance/results
● Preventing/limiting hair damage
● Providing advice on personalising or fitting products and hairstyles
● Providing improved functional differentiation to achieve maximum compliance and increased monitoring and instruction performance.
Fig. 1 shows a system 100 according to an embodiment. The system 100 includes a blower device 110 and a brush device 150. The blower 110 performs the function of a conventional blower, for example, generating hot air and emitting the hot air from the outlet 112. The brush 150 includes bristles 154, the bristles 154 being disposed about the axis of the brush ("circular" brush type). However, other known hair brush types may also be used.
In addition, the blower device 110 and the brush device 150 include additional components. For example, blower device 110 also includes a temperature controller 114 and an actuator 116. The temperature controller 114 controls and adjusts the temperature of the air emitted by the blower. The actuator controls the shape of the airflow pattern and the speed of the airflow. The actuator may be a moving mechanical part that can be moved in an air stream to modify its shape. Such gas flow control is known in the art as demonstrated by EP1779745 A1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The blower may also include a proximity sensor 118, the proximity sensor 118 preferably being positioned near the outlet 112 of the blower. The proximity sensor may be an optical sensor known in the art, such as an infrared sensor. However, other examples may be employed, such as capacitive, ultrasonic, or Doppler sensors.
In an embodiment, the blower device 110 is configured to change at least one setting at the blower based on the received sensed characteristic. In an embodiment, the blower device 110 is configured to dynamically adjust at least one setting at the blower based on the received sensed characteristic.
The blower may also include a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) 120, the PCB 120 including communication and control circuitry, such as a wireless RF communication interface, for performing wireless communications with an external device, such as the brush device 150.
The brush device may also include its own PCB 180, the PCB 180 including communication and control circuitry, e.g., a wireless RF communication interface, for performing wireless communications with an external device (e.g., blower 150). The PCB may also house a motion detector, e.g. an accelerator/gyroscope.
The brush arrangement may further comprise a hair moisture sensor and a temperature sensor. Hair and humidity sensors are known and understood in the art.
As depicted in fig. 1, there may be a wireless machine-to-machine feedback loop between the brush device 150 and the blower 110, facilitated by communication between wireless RF communication interfaces embedded in each device. In this feedback loop, the brush may sense the temperature at which the hair dryer is operating and the humidity level of the user's hair and provide such feedback to the hair dryer. Based on this information, the blower may adjust the temperature and/or shape and/or speed of the air flow, for example, by adjusting the resistance of a heating element in the blower, adjusting the fan speed, and/or adjusting the shape of a mechanical element that controls the shape of the air flow.
Fig. 2 shows a diagram of an electrical block diagram of hardware components of a blower according to an embodiment. Power from the power supply 204 is controlled by the microcontroller/processor 203. It should be understood that the electrical block diagrams may be modified to suit other configurations in accordance with the principles disclosed herein.
In an example, the communication interface (I/F) 205 may include circuitry and hardware for communicating with the client device 120. The communication interface 205 may include a network controller, such as a BCM43342 Wi-Fi, fm and bluetooth integrated chip from bot corporation for interfacing with a network. The hardware can be designed to have a reduced size. For example, the processor 203 may be a CPU, as understood in the art. For example, the processor may be APL0778 from apple Inc., or may be other processor types that can be identified by one of ordinary skill in the art. Alternatively, the CPU may be implemented on FPGA, ASIC, PLD or using discrete logic circuits, as will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art. Further, the CPU may be implemented as multiple processors that cooperate in parallel to execute instructions of the inventive processes described above.
In embodiments, the blower includes a user interface 206, which user interface 206 may take the form of an input button on the housing of the tool, or the user interface 206 may take the form of a touch sensitive display, such as a capacitive or resistive touch screen display.
In embodiments, the blower includes an output indicator 202, which output indicator 202 may take the form of a light (e.g., an LED light), an indicator on a touch screen, or an audible output through a speaker.
In an embodiment, the blower includes a memory 207, the memory 207 storing software for controlling the blower or for storing user data or other information.
In embodiments, the blower includes a position/motion sensor 208, the position/motion sensor 208 may also detect the orientation of the blower when the user is holding the blower, and the position/motion sensor 208 may also detect the movement and path of movement of the blower. In an embodiment, the position/motion sensor is at least one of a combination of a geomagnetic sensor and an acceleration sensor. For example, given the current orientation of (the housing of) a setting tool that houses a 3-axis geomagnetic sensor, the 3-axis geomagnetic sensor determines the direction of geomagnetism, or in other words, the geomagnetic loss amount Vt. Given the current orientation of the (housing of the) setting tool that accommodates the 3-axis acceleration sensor in a stationary state, the 3-axis acceleration sensor determines the direction of gravity, or in other words the gravity vector G. The gravity vector G matches the downward vertical direction. Also, the gravity vector G may be decomposed into an Xs axis component, a Ys axis component, and a Zs axis component.
Alternatively or additionally, a gyroscope may be used, which is a sensor that detects angular velocities about three axes Xs, zs, and Ys (roll angle, pitch angle, and yaw angle) and is capable of detecting rotation of an object. In addition, the geomagnetic sensor can determine the advancing direction in which the object faces based on the geomagnetic vector previously discussed.
The blower may include an actuator circuit 209, the actuator circuit 209 being configured to control the shape of the mechanical elements that control the airflow shape.
The blower includes the proximity sensor 118 discussed above.
The blower includes a thermal control circuit 210, which thermal control circuit 210 is used to control the heat by varying the resistance of the heating elements in the blower described above.
The blower also includes a fan control 211, the fan control 211 being used to vary the speed of the blower in the blower described above.
Fig. 3 shows a diagram of an electrical block diagram of hardware components of a hairbrush according to an embodiment. Similar to the hairdryer described above, the hairbrush includes a microcontroller/processor 303, a power supply 304, a communication interface 305, a user interface 306, a memory 307, and a position/motion sensor 308.
The hairbrush may also include a sound sensing circuit 309, which sound sensing circuit 309 may include a microphone to detect dryness of the user's hair based on daily energy and spectral sound variations.
The hairbrush may also include a moisture sensing circuit 311. This circuit may be similar to the circuit described in U.S. patent No. 13/112,533 (U.S. publication No. 2012/0291977 A1), which is incorporated herein by reference. Alternatively, the moisture sensing circuit may rely on a hall effect sensor that detects changes in the magnetic field, such changes being sensitive to moisture levels.
The hairbrush may further comprise a force sensor 311, which force sensor 311 may take the form of a load cell arranged between the head and the handle.
The hairbrush may also include an ambient temperature/humidity sensor 312 as described above for detecting local temperature or humidity in the vicinity of the hairbrush.
In addition, the brush may include conductive needles 313 embedded in the brush for detecting whether the hair is wet or dry, or for detecting contact with the hair of the user.
The hairbrush may also include an imaging unit 314, which imaging unit 314 may be a camera disposed on an outer surface of the brush that faces the user's head or hair when the user is using the hairbrush. The imaging unit may optionally have thermal imaging capabilities for sensing thermal characteristics of the user's hair. The imaging unit may also be equipped with an illumination unit (e.g., LED lamp) to aid in the imaging process.
As mentioned above, the brush and the hair dryer are equipped with means of communication with each other and the hair dryer is equipped with a control system calibrated to adapt the temperature and the air flow according to the indicators of hair damage/aggression and/or the hair styling results selected by the user. Thus, intelligence and algorithms embedded in the brush and/or blower or dislodged may translate the sensor record into an adjustment at the blower.
Fig. 4A shows a general process performed between a blower and a hairbrush. As in the process shown in fig. 4A, when two devices are within acceptable wireless communication range of each other, a communication pairing 401 is performed between the two devices. Such pairing will depend on the type of communication protocol used, and such protocols are well known in the art. The user may use the hairbrush and during such use the hairbrush will perform any of the number of sensing operations described above (step 402). The sensing operation is not required when the blower is used simultaneously, and may be started and completed at any time based on receiving a user input to start/end such sensing. The sensor record obtained by the sensing operation may be stored in memory (step 403) and/or immediately transferred to the blower (step 404).
As shown in fig. 4A, the blower stores the sensor record received from the blower and performs processing and analysis of the sensor record (step 405). The blower is then adjusted based on the processing and analysis of the sensor records (step 406).
In fig. 4A, the communication pairing need not be performed before the user performs the sensing operation at 402 using the hairbrush, and the communication pairing may be performed at any time before the hairbrush transmits the sensor record to the hairbrush.
In addition, the hairbrush does not have to perform processing and analysis of the sensor record as shown in step 405. In this case, the blower may transmit the sensor record to an external client device (e.g., a smart phone or user computer) for controlling the performance of the processing and analysis of the sensor record, as will be discussed in further detail below. Additionally, as shown in optional step 403', the hairbrush may perform at least some processing and/or analysis of the sensor record prior to transmitting the information to the hairbrush.
Fig. 4B illustrates an algorithm that may be performed by a hairbrush according to an embodiment. In step 410, the hairbrush detects a trigger to begin a sensing operation. This trigger may be an intentional user input that initiates one or more sensing operations at the user interface of the hairbrush. The trigger may also be received from the blower itself. For example, if a communication pairing has been established between the blower and the hairbrush, the blower may transmit a signal to the hairbrush to begin the sensing operation. Such signaling may be associated with a user activating a blowing operation of the blower, or may be based on a proximity sensor of the blower detecting that the blower is within range of the user's head or brush.
In step 411, a sensing operation is performed at step 411. The type of sensing operation performed by the hairbrush is described in detail above. At step 412, the sensor data obtained from the sensing operation is stored in the memory of the hairbrush as it is obtained. At step 413, the sensor data is transmitted to the blower. Optionally, in step 414, the hairbrush may perform at least some processing and/or analysis of the sensor data prior to transmitting the sensor data to the hair dryer. The results of such processing and/or analysis, and (or even no sensor data) are then also transmitted to the blower in step 413. Such transmission may occur when data is accumulated after a total of a certain amount of time, may occur periodically, may occur based on user input at a user interface of the hair brush, or may occur based on a request signal received from the hair dryer.
Fig. 4C illustrates an algorithm that may be performed by a blower according to an embodiment. In step 420, the blower receives sensor data, which may occur when data is accumulated at the hairbrush after a total amount of time, as described above, may occur periodically, may occur based on user input at a user interface of the hairbrush, or may occur based on a request signal received from the blower, which may be triggered by user input at the blower or may be based on an event such as the user turning off the blowing operation (without turning off the blower). In step 421, the sensor data is processed or analyzed, as will be described in more detail below. In step 422, the blower performs an adjustment of settings for the blower based on the processed/analyzed sensor data, as will be discussed in more detail below.
As described above, in step 421, the sensor data is processed or analyzed by a blower (or another device as will be discussed below). The particular type of analysis will depend on the type of sensing that occurs and the target of the analysis.
For example, based on a combination of data obtained from force/stress sensors, accelerometers and gyroscopes, magnetic compasses, contact sensors and proximity sensors, the user's comb pattern and movement when the hair brush is used alone or in combination with a hair dryer can be determined. From this data, the following comb pattern and movement can be determined.
● Tension of user
● Hair twist and twist around brush hair
● Topical comb movement
● Proximity of the brush to the blower.
Sensor data may also be used to assess hair characteristics/damage/risk level of damage or hair damage based on a combination of data obtained from sensed ambient temperature and humidity, temperature and humidity of hair in contact with the brush, conductivity sensors, thermal imagers, microphones, contact sensors, proximity sensors, and force/stress sensors. From this data, the following hair characteristics/damage/aggression or risk levels can be determined.
● Hair temperature and humidity
● Cumulative heat damage level (temperature or hair damage risk level x duration)
● Increased hair damage risk level associated with hair wetness
● Hair gloss estimated from image analysis of images acquired by camera
● Color break-up level estimated from image analysis of images acquired by a camera
● Hair roughness.
Embodiments of the present invention relate to an intelligent hair dryer apparatus and system that teaches a user how to achieve any hairstyle in the home. In an embodiment, the system connects a blower with a client device. In an embodiment, when using the styling tool, the client device receives input regarding the user's needs, provides feedback on how to obtain a particular appearance, and may correct the user's technique.
Fig. 5A illustrates a system 500 including a blower 110 and a client device 510. In an embodiment, blower 110 communicates with client device 501 via wireless signal 520. In an embodiment, the client device 510 is configured to operate a software application or collection of software modules to receive communications from the blower 110 and to send communications to the blower 110. In an example, the software application may send a protocol or target profile to the blower 110 and receive data from the blower 110 to track usage in real-time.
Fig. 5B shows different examples of client devices 120, including a mobile device 522, a wearable electronic device 524, a television or mirror 526, a network router 528, and a personal computer 529.
The wireless signal 520 may be any suitable signal, for example, electromagnetic signals including WIFI, bluetooth, near field, or any other signal such as optical and acoustic. Each client device comprising the appliance may communicate with each other through an internet connection via an 802.11 wireless connection to a wireless internet access point or a physical connection to an internet access point, for example through an ethernet interface. Each connection device is also capable of performing wireless communications with other devices, such as through a bluetooth connection or other wireless device.
The diagram of fig. 5C presents an example of a system 550 for facilitating optimal performance of the blower 110 according to one example. The system 550 includes at least a blower and a client device. Optionally, the system 550 may also include one or more external servers 542, the one or more external servers 542 implemented as part of a cloud computing environment and in communication with the system 550 via the internet. According to an example, one or more external servers 542 may store user data, products such as hair styling products, hair dryers or brush accessories, protocols and routines, tutorials, and other third party services.
The user interface or client device may display a tutorial on how to use the blower. The user interface may create and download protocols for a solution or routine. The user interface may guide, track, and compare usage to protocols, schemes, and routines. The user interface may calculate a score based on the tracked usage. The user interface may store the score and tracked usage of the blower in a memory of the client device. The user interface may be used to purchase any product associated with the hair dryer. For example, a hair dryer may be used with a combination of styling products or chemical compositions for treating the user's hair, and the client device may output advice regarding the particular styling product or composition to be used and which step in the process to use based on the desired result entered by the user.
As an initial step, the client device gathers information about the user's desired result. In an example, a user may use a client device to browse a database of images depicting various hair styles. In another example, a user may input a keyword search to a client device to find a desired appearance. The client device may store the search results locally or may connect to an external system or server to access the database or search results.
After the user finds the desired appearance to be achieved using the blower, the user may access a tutorial for achieving the target appearance using the blower. The course may take the form of text, still images, video, or audio only.
In addition to using the tutorial, the user may connect the client device 510 with the blower via a wireless connection (e.g., a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection) to receive real-time feedback while the blower is in use, or to record the use of the blower for later reporting or feedback.
For example, the blower may communicate the settings that the blower is currently using.
For example, when using a blower, a motion sensor on the blower may output the detected motion of the blower as feedback to the client device. The client device is configured to compare the detected motion with predetermined motion data to provide real-time performance results to the user or to output instructions to the user for correction.
In another example, the temperature sensed by the hairbrush and communicated to the blower may be communicated to the client device. The client device is configured to compare the detected temperature to predetermined temperature information to provide a warning to a user when the detected temperature is above a predetermined threshold.
In the example of the present invention,the timer on the brush may provide the measured time information to the client device. The client device is configured to compare the measured time to a target time, to provide an output to the user regarding the amount of time remaining for a particular action using the blower, or to provide a warning to the user when the time has elapsed. The target time may depend on the routine, the hairstyle to be achieved, and the current step in the process, such that different steps may have different durations. The client device is configured to receive input from a user to create a client profile based on personal characteristics of the user. For example, the client device is configured to provide questions to the user, such as "whether hair is dyed or not"" whether the hair is thick or thin->"and" Hair straightening or curling->". The customer profile may be used to select a particular course or data set to be used in measuring performance from the blower and brush. Depending on the evaluated hair type, degree of damage or other parameters, the client device may recommend or avoid recommending or suggesting certain hairstyles.
The client device may also have a camera function that may be used to provide input to the client profile. For example, the camera may take an image of the user's hair to determine if a desired appearance is likely to be achieved, or make other suggestions to the user based on characteristics or colors of the hair or skin.
Alternatively, the client device may interface with known spectrum analysis tools to analyze the user's hair. Alternatively, the client device may interface with known chemical measurement tools to determine the chemical and structural characteristics of the user's hair. In an embodiment, the client device is configured to maximize personalization and security of the user. The client device may alert the user if a setting for the user's hair type is not recommended. The client device may ask the user if the hair has been color treated (including decolorized), highlighted, keratin treated, or relaxed.
The client device may receive as input the humidity or porosity of the hair (which may be assessed by a stylist, or by a moisture sensor on the styling tool).
The client device may provide a warning if the hair is not ready to receive additional heat, for example, if the moisture sensor in the brush detects that it is too dry.
The client device may provide instructions to pre-treat the user's hair prior to applying heat. The client device may suggest whether the initial temperature is appropriate for the hairstyle that the user is attempting to achieve, as different temperature levels are appropriate for different hair quality levels.
The client device may have an automatic setting or control function, for example, providing automatic temperature control from the client device from the phone.
The client device is configured to upload data about the user to an external system or server (e.g., a cloud-based system). This data may include a user profile, usage of the sizing tool, or performance results when the sizing tool is used. The client device may also provide the option of keeping the user data anonymous.
Further, the circuitry of the client device may be configured to initiate a discovery protocol that allows the client device and the blower to identify each other and negotiate one or more pre-shared keys, which also allows the blower and the client device to exchange encrypted and anonymous information. The discovery protocol may also allow the client device and blower to exchange processing scheme information according to a particular type of blower or brush, or based on a particular detected attachment.
The client device may use camera functionality to provide sharing features in which a user may upload photos taken before and/or after using the typing tool. The uploaded photos may be used to receive feedback from a professional hairstylist or other user. In embodiments, the uploaded photos may be uploaded directly to the social media platform.
Fig. 6 shows a flow chart of a method performed by a client device based on the above features. In step 601, a client device receives input from a user regarding a physical feature of the user. In step 602, the client device receives input from a user regarding a selection of a desired appearance to be achieved using a blower and brush. In step 603, the client device outputs guide information for achieving a desired appearance of the user using the blower and the brush based on the user's selection and the physical characteristics of the user. In step 604, after the user begins to use the blower and/or brush, the client device receives feedback from the styling tool regarding the user's use of the styling tool (e.g., feedback from various sensors incorporated into the blower and brush and described above). In step 605, the client device outputs an indication of the user's performance based on a comparison of the feedback information received from the blower and the target information. Alternatively, the client device may output correction information (e.g., adjustments to the movement of the blower and/or brush or to the heat/airflow/speed settings) based on the feedback information. Alternatively, the client device may output warning information (e.g., a warning related to the sensed temperature, humidity, or elapsed time) to the user based on the feedback information.
