`
`ABSTRACT
`
`Some embodiments relate to a 2D array/chain of basic units
`where each basic unit is individually addressable. Each basic
`unit may include a rigid or semi-rigid plate-e.g. of elec(cid:173)
`trically insulating material and an electrode ( e.g. ball elec(cid:173)
`trode )-for example, a ball-shaped electrode. The device
`may be used to treat biological tissue-e.g. to provide
`TEMS muscle stimulation.

`over the aria of the Wearable Applicator in a self-contained
`procedure so it cover all area in uniform circulation and keep 10
`the skin temperature in a steady level under the allowed
`threshold,
`Idea C In some embodiments, The Main Control Algo(cid:173)
`rithm cause the Energy delivery to be adaptive, so it can be 15
`change during the area sequential procedure pass and even
`skip over parts of it depend on the local Temperature
`feedback, it will stop the Treatment in case of safety
`detection or predefined end of procedure.
