   The present document describes a wearable device for monitoring one or more vital signs of a human body, the device comprising a carrier suitable for being worn around an abdominal part of the body, and an electrode arrangement comprising a plurality of conductive electrodes, wherein the electrodes are arranged on the carrier such as to be brought in contact with a skin of the body in use, and wherein the electrodes are arranged for receiving electric physiologic signals from the body for enabling monitoring of a membrane potential of one or more muscles in the body, wherein the electrodes comprise one or more first electrodes arranged on the carrier such as to be in contact with a side part of a torso of the body, such as to receive via said first electrodes a first electrical signal indicative of a membrane potential of a thoracic diaphragm of the body; wherein the carrier further comprises at least one second electrode in addition to the one or more first electrodes, the at least one second electrode being arranged on the carrier such as to be in contact with a mid front part of the abdominal part of the body, the at least one second electrode thereby being arranged for receiving a second electrical signal indicative of one or more further electric physiologic signals from the body, for enabling filtering of the first electrical signal using the second electrical signal for enabling electromyography of the thoracic diaphragm.

   US Patent US20110298689A1

   Abs Website

   A device for sharing photographs in social settings is described. In an example, the device comprises a display surface which extends around a vertical axis of the device such that it provides a cumulative viewing angle of greater than 180°. This enables viewers located all around the device to see images displayed. The display surface may be a continuous display or may be formed from multiple discrete displays. The images displayed comprise sets of related images which may, for example, be accessed from an online image store (such as a social networking site) or other storage device. In an example, sets of images may be displayed in the form of filmstrips, with each filmstrip comprising a set of related images associated with a different user. Where the device includes a user interaction element, detection of a user interaction changes the images that are displayed.
