Assistive Technologies for Traditional Chinese Medicine Tele-Practice This is an advanced technology developed to assist with traditional Chinese medicine tele-practice, integrating pulse sensing and pulse regeneration devices which are linked via a wireless network. Practitioners can remotely guide the patients to record their pulse data using a piezoelectric sensor with auxiliary technologies, including an artery viewing device featuring 7 distinct intensity levels and dynamic force control with 10 distinct intensity levels. The digitised pulse information is then transmitted to the practitioner's computer and regenerated through precise mechanical movement using nonlinear mapping. The correlation coefficient between actual and regenerated pulses, which is approximately 0.8, validates the pulse regeneration efficacy. This solution has won a Silver Medal in the 50th International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva.
