Method and apparatus for motion detection

Image analysis techniques may be employed to identify moving and / or static object within a sequence of spatial data frames (102, 300). Attributes of interest may be identified within a sequence of spatial data frames (102, 300). The attributes of interest may be clustered and examined across frames of the spatial data to detect motion vectors. A system (200) may derive information about these attributes of interest and their motion over time and identify moving and / or static objects, and the moving and / or static objects may be used to generate natural language messages describing the motion of the attributes of interest. Example uses include description of moving and / or static objects in data such as weather data, oil spills, cellular growth (e.g., tumor progression), atmospheric conditions (e.g., the size of a hole in the ozone layer), or any other implementation where it may be desirable to detect motion vectors in a sequence of spatial data frames.

Expandable implant devices for filtering blood flow from atrial appendages

Implant devices for filtering blood flowing through the ostium of an atrial appendage have component structures one or more of which are expandable. Devices with component structures in their unexpanded state have a compact size suitable for intra-cutaneous delivery to an atrial appendage situs. The expandable component structures are expanded in situ to deploy the devices. A device may have sufficiently short axial length so that most or almost all of the device length may fit within the ostium region. An expandable component structure in the device may include a blood-permeable filter element. The device may be deployed so that this component structure covers the ostium so as to direct the blood flow to pass through the filter element. The filter elements used in the devices may have hole size distributions selected to filter out harmful-size emboli. The filter elements may be embedded in elastic material so that hole-size distributions remain substantially unaffected by expansion of the device structures. Anchors attached to a component structure engage tissue surrounding the device and maintain the devices in position. The anchors may include inflatable anchors which engage interior walls of the atrial appendage.

Microdermabrasion and suction massage apparatus and method

Microdermabrasion and suction massage apparatus are included in a single unit and alternatively connectable through a mode switch to a source of vacuum. The microdermabrasion section of the unit includes a crystal pick up station operating with a venturi effect to draw crystals through a hole into an air stream. The size of the hole is variable to control crystal density. A bleed valve is provided to control crystal velocity without controlling crystal density, while a bypass valve is provided to control crystal density without controlling crystal velocity. In an associated method, a microdermabrasion procedure is performed on the skin of a patient at an operative site. The mode switch is operated to activate the suction massage apparatus within the unit. This step is followed by performing a suction massage procedure at the operative site in order to promote healing of the abraded skin. The unit can be back-flushed by connecting various portions of the unit to a pressurized output of the source of vacuum.

Adjustable nanopore, nanotome, and nanotweezer

An adjustable nanopore is fabricated by placing the surfaces of two planar substrates in contact, wherein each substrate contains a hole having sharp corners and edges. A corner is brought into proximity with an edge to define a triangular aperture of variable area. Ionic current in a liquid solution and through the aperture is monitored as the area of the aperture is adjusted by moving one planar substrate with respect to the other along two directional axes and a rotational axis. Piezoelectric positioners can provide subnanometer repeatability in the adjustment process. The invention is useful for characterizing, cleaving, and capturing molecules, molecular complexes, and supramolecular complexes which pass through the nanopore, and provides an improvement over previous devices in which the hole size of nanopores fabricated by etching and / or redeposition is fixed after fabrication.

Device for the treatment of wounds using a vacuum

A device for treating wounds using a vacuum and having a gas-tight wound-covering element, which, when placed in contact with the body of the patient, forms a wound space between the respective wound and the wound-covering element. The device includes an absorption body, which is a layer, enclosed in an envelope, of a textile section, interspersed with super-absorbing particles. The liquid-permeable envelope has pores, the size of which does not exceed that of the super-absorbing particles. The absorption body, inserted in the wound space, has an initial volume, which enlarges in the course of the absorption process, and a final volume, so that, due to the size of the pores of the envelope, the absorbed wound secretions remain within the absorption body and, with that, below the wound-covering element, until the absorption body is removed from the wound space.

Fiber optic impact detection system

Closely spaced conventional optical fibers are arranged in a grid placed between a first surface and a second surface. A penetrating impact onto the first surface results in a hole of a size proportional to the diameter and velocity of the impacting object. The size and shape of the debris plume that travels between the first and second surfaces is also proportional to the diameter and velocity of the impacting object. If the debris plume is sufficiently energetic, a number of the fibers in the grid are broken. The size and shape of the area defined by the broken fibers can be determined simply by determining which fibers are no longer transmitting light. Analytical methods are then used to relate the extent of the damaged area to the location of an MOD impact, the direction from which the impact occurred, and the size of the impacting object.
