  • Publication number: 20190021665
    Abstract: An apparatus for measuring patient data includes a frame having a plurality of electrode hubs. Each hub can include one or more electrode members. The frame can be configured to receive a head of a patient. Each of the electrode hubs can have a single electrode member or a plurality of electrode members that extend from or are connected to an outer member for contacting a scalp of the head of the patient. The outer member can have at least one circuit configured to transmit data received by at least one of the electrode members to a measurement device via a wireless communication connection (e.g. Bluetooth, near field communication, etc.) or a wired communication connection.

  • Publication number: 20180177319
    Abstract: Provided are a system and method for a secure lock box with near proximity awareness. The system includes a lock box housing defining at least one enclosable space for the receipt of a package, the lock box housing having a sealable aperture for accessing the enclosable space and an electronic lock structured and arranged to seal the aperture and enclose the space. The lock box housing further encloses a processor, a near proximity device structured and arranged to actively detect a Package Attribute from a package proximate to the lock box housing, a network component coupled to the processor, and non-volatile memory coupled to the processor having executable instructions to direct the operations of the near proximity device and the electronic lock.

  • Publication number: 20160287127
    Abstract: A neurological condition detection unit can include a computer device that is connected to at least two leads that are connectable to a patient for evoking a response from that patient via an electrical current passed through the leads (e.g. a shock) and at plurality of sensors connected to the computer device to sense how the left side and right side of the patient's brain reacts to the evoked event (e.g. the shock). The stroke detection device and/or neurological condition detection unit can be configured to output a warning when one side of the patient's brain is determined to react differently than the opposite side of the patient's brain by at least a pre-selected threshold value. The warning can include an identification of a nearby care facility that may be best suited for providing care to a patient determined to have a neurological condition (e.g. a stroke).

  • Patent number: 7347701
    Abstract: A apparatus is described herein for configuring Input/Output (I/O) conductors on an integrated circuit (IC) or in a socket. At least a portion of the I/O conductors for an IC and/or contacts/receptacles of a socket are configured in a repeatable 2×4 rectangular T pattern. The rectangular T pattern includes a first line of four conductors, which include two ground conductors and a first differential pair of conductors, and a second line of four conductors, which include a second and a third pair of differential conductors. The I/O conductors on the IC may be pads/lands in an land-grid-array (LGA) style socket, pins in a pin-grid-array (PGA) style socket, or other conductor in another style of socket, while the socket includes corresponding contacts, receptacles, etc.
