Life Expectancy Timepiece: U.S. 5031161

This is essentially a watch that approximates the time remaining in a user’s life. A chip monitors the passage of time and the processors stores data of the number of years, months, days, hours, and seconds remaining until the approximate death of the user. The claim includes a time monitoring apparatus that also displays digits of an individuals’ life span. The claim includes resettable memory, monitoring passage of time, and multiple photos for the watch.

The only other patents referenced include a device indicating the longevity of a battery, mobile event-module, and a device that established and generates used adaptive withdrawal schedule.

  1. Hi Raghav,

    Your post on the Life Expectancy time piece was really informative and funny as well. It was interesting to see that this device was patented, and that it claims to monitor the passage of time and approximate the years, months, days, hours, and seconds remaining until the user passes away. Not entirely sure if this is the most reliable device, but interesting to note that it fulfills the basic requirements of a patent.

    Best,
