Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for authoring and presenting 3D presentations. Generally, an augmented or virtual reality device for each author, presenter and audience member includes 3D presentation software. During authoring mode, one or more authors can use 3D and/or 2D interfaces to generate a 3D presentation that choreographs behaviors of 3D assets into scenes and beats. During presentation mode, the 3D presentation is loaded in each user device, and 3D images of the 3D assets and corresponding asset behaviors are rendered among the user devices in a coordinated manner. As such, one or more presenters can navigate the scenes and beats of the 3D presentation to deliver the 3D presentation to one or more audience members wearing augmented reality headsets.

Abstract: A diagnostic system for determining the presence of a target in a sample liquid that includes a diagnostic reader and a microfluidic strip having a microfluidic channel network therein. An actuator within the reader modifies the pressure of a gas in gaseous communication with a liquid-gas interface of a sample liquid within the microfluidic channel network to move and/or mix the sample liquid. The pressure modifications may be continuous and/or oscillatory.

Abstract: The present invention relates to test devices for determining the presence of one or more analytes in a sample, methods for using such test devices and methods of manufacturing such test devices. The test devices comprise a substrate having disposed thereon, two or more conductive tracks, a reagent composition and a top layer covering a portion of the conductive tracks which forms, in combination with the substrate, a sample receiving chamber. At least one of the conductive tracks comprises a conductive polymer.

Abstract: A meter is provided that includes an improved user interface that enables the user to take a specific action, leading them directly to data input options. Such a user interface could be used to input first selected information, such as whether a test was premeal or postmeal, immediately after receiving a result. Optionally, the user interface may include the ability to add an additional comment after inputting the first selected information. Provision of such a user interface would facilitate simpler capture of the first selected information each time the user performs a test, leading to an enhanced understanding of a patient's level of glycemic control. Designing a user interface to enable first selected information to be entered by a user directly after receiving a result is more likely to engage a patient by making it easy and simple to enter important information. This may enable capture of the information thought to be most pertinent e.g.

Abstract: A method of scanning is disclosed comprising, providing a scanning system (10) having a sample holder (14) and a relatively movable scanning device (18), performing a scan of at least a part of an object (22) located on the sample holder (14), establishing orientation of the sample holder and interpreting data from a scan using the orientation whereby, the orientation is established using data from the scan of the surface of the sample holder. The orientation may be established by defining a plane (56b) of the sample holder, which may be limited by boundaries (76a, 76b).

Abstract: Many aspects of the invention will be apparent from the following paragraphs and detailed description some of which are as follows. In one example, the invention includes a circuit for measuring an analyte or indicator in a body fluid sample including a reference voltage circuit, at least one measurement line, a result line, a buffering circuit between the voltage reference circuit and the measurement line wherein the buffering circuit comprises at least one operational amplifier the output of which is connected to the result line. The circuit may be a glucose concentration measurement circuit delivering the glucose concentration in a body fluid such as for example blood, plasma, interstitial fluid, urine. The circuit may further form part of a meter or system for measuring glucose concentration in a body fluid.

Abstract: An assay device includes a first reagent including a magnetic particle and a second reagent including detectable component. The first and second reagent can each independently bind to an analyte in a sample. A time-varying magnetic field can be used to distinguish detectable components that are associated with analyte from detectable components not associated with analyte.
