Definitions
- One drawback associated with known skin treatment apparatus is the often unidirectional rotary motion of the skin contacting element. Such motion, which causes the element to asymmetrically tug and pull the skin, may damage the skin's structure, e.g. its elastin fibers, and provoke a loss of elasticity. This applies in particular to areas that are naturally sensitive to tensile and compressive stresses, such as the relatively thin skin around the eyes (periocular area).
- Known apparatus that avoid the asymmetrical loading of the skin may typically employ a high-frequency (> 100 Hz) oscillatory (i.e. bi-directional) motion of the skin contacting element instead. Such rapid oscillatory motion, however, may be perceived as uncomfortable.
- Fig. 1 A is a schematic front view of an exemplary skin treatment apparatus according to the present invention.
- the motion sensor 40 may in itself be of a conventional design, and of any suitable type.
- the motion sensor 40 may include a tracking device, such that it is configured to generate its movement signal in accordance with movements across a skin surface detected via interaction therewith.
- the tracking device may be similar to tracking devices known from the field of computer input devices, e.g. computer mice, and for instance be a mechanical tracking device, such as a rollerball tracking device, or an optical tracking device.
- a small ball may roll over the skin surface, while displacement sensors register the mutually perpendicular x/y-displacements of the ball; in an apparatus 1 fitted with an optical tracking device, optical images of the skin surface, taken at high frame rates, may be compared to each other to determine the mutually perpendicular x/y-shifts between them.
- An optical tracking device may be preferable to a mechanical tracking device for its higher reliability and accuracy.
- the motion sensor 40 may be configured to generate its movement signal in accordance with movements detected without interaction with the skin surface.
- the motion sensor may, for instance, include an accelerometer that may determine mutually perpendicular displacements from accelerations measured during certain time intervals.
- the electrical components of the skin treatment apparatus 1 may be provided with electrical power from a battery 60, which may be accommodated in the elongate handle portion 12 of the hand- held base body 10.
- the relative motion between the skin treatment apparatus 1 and the generally three-dimensional skin surface being treated may be analyzed and described - both theoretically and within the internals of the control unit 50 - in terms of any suitable set of coordinates and with reference to any suitable coordinate system.
- the operation of the skin treatment apparatus 1 according to the present invention is expounded here in relation to a generally flat, i.e. two-dimensional, skin surface.
- This approach is sensible because even though the overall skin surface being treated may in actuality be three-dimensionally curved, the control unit 50 of the apparatus 1 may typically be configured to repeatedly determine the relative direction of motion in relation to only a relatively small portion thereof, which respective portion may each time be approximated by a two-dimensional patch.
- the relative movements between the apparatus and a generally flat (patch of) skin surface may further be conveniently describable with reference to a two-dimensional polar coordinate system in which each point is determined by a distance measured from a fixed point called the pole, and an angle measured from a fixed direction called the polar axis.
- the distance from the pole is called the radial coordinate or radius R
- the angle from the fixed direction is called the angular coordinate or polar angle ⁇ .
- a movement signal from the motion sensor 40 may be construed to define a path of relative movement, every point of which is determined by a pair of coordinates (R, ⁇ ).
- R, ⁇ a pair of coordinates
- control unit 50 may be configured to distinguish substantially circular paths of relative movement.
- a circular path of relative movement may be describable as a path along which the angular coordinate ⁇ varies while the radial coordinate R is substantially constant.
- 'is substantially constant' may be construed to mean 'variable by less than a certain relatively small threshold deviation', e.g. a relative deviation of ⁇ 10% of the maximum radius value of a point along the path of relative movement, or a certain absolute deviation, e.g. 1 mm.
- the control unit 50 may further distinguish between clockwise and counterclockwise circular paths of relative movement for which the angular coordinate ⁇ along the path, respectively, consistently decreases and increases, or vice versa.
