Patent number: 9690048Abstract: A holding system for laser cleaving an optical fiber. The holding system includes a support structure located at least partially within a laser cleaving device. The support structure has an exterior surface with a first aperture formed there through. It also has a holding member including a first surface accessible through the first aperture and a second surface opposite the first surface. The holding member defines a second aperture extending from the first surface to the second surface for receiving a corresponding mounted optical fiber. The system also includes a pivot mechanism pivotally coupling the holding member to the support structure. The holding member is pivotable relative to the support structure and a cutting plane of the laser cleaving device to provide a plurality of cleaving angles between the cutting plane and the optical fiber.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2015Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignee: Domaille Engineering, LLCInventors: John Hagen, Greg Schumacher, James Frazer

Publication number: 20160196612Abstract: A property of an insurance policy may be determined, at least in part, upon characteristics of a vehicle collision detection system. The characteristics may pertain to any capability, configuration, and/or operating state of the collision detection system (and/or vehicle). For example, a property of the insurance policy may be based upon whether the collision detection system is configured to take automatic collision avoidance actions in response to detecting a potential collision and/or whether the automatic collision avoidance actions can be overridden by the operator of the vehicle. The property of the insurance policy may be dynamic, and may be updated in response to changes to the collision detection system and/or the real-time operating state thereof. The coverage of particular events may be based upon characteristics of the collision detection system and/or vehicle at the time the event occurred.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2016Publication date: July 7, 2016Inventors: Peter L. Hagelstein, Jeffrey John Hagen, Roderick A. Hyde, Jordin T. Kare, Victoria Y.H. Wood

Patent number: 8870813Abstract: Systems and methods are described for obtaining and acting upon information indicative of circulatory health and related phenomena in human beings or other subjects. Some involve implementing or deploying therapeutic administration systems, for example, for obtaining a priori implant information and signaling a decision whether to initiate implant-site-targeting treatment; or obtaining a flow-change-indicative measurement and signaling a decision whether to administer a clot-reducing agent; or obtaining an indication of a lytic material in a vicinity of a body lumen and accelerating a decrease in a local concentration of the lytic material to extract at least a portion of the lytic material in response to the indication; or a capture component configured to accelerate a decrease in a local concentration of a therapeutic structure along a downstream portion of a vasculature and a dispensation component configured to release the therapeutic structure into an upstream portion of the vasculature.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2008Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: The Invention Science Fund I, LLCInventors: Bran Ferren, Jeffrey John Hagen, Roderick A.

Patent number: 8691586Abstract: A method of forming bilayers of amphipathic molecules uses droplets of aqueous solution in a hydrophobic medium such as oil. A layer of amphipathic molecules such as a lipid is formed around the surfaces of the droplets. This may be achieved by providing the lipid in the oil and leaving the droplets for a time sufficient to form the layer. The droplets are brought into contact with one another so that a bilayer of the amphipathic molecules is formed as an interface between the contacting droplets. The bilayers may be used for a wide range of studies. The technique has numerous advantages including providing a long lifetime for the bilayers, allowing study of small volumes and allowing the construction of chains and networks of droplets with bilayers in between to study complex systems.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2012Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: ISIS Innovation LimitedInventors: John Hagen Pryce Bayley, Matthew Holden, Andrew John Heron, David Needham

Publication number: 20110214982Abstract: Technologies are generally described for a levitation microreactor adapted to facilitate a chemical reaction. The levitation microreactor may comprise one or more levitation zones arranged in spatial communication with one another, each levitation zone including a levitator that is effective to levitate a reactant droplet. In some examples, a first levitation zone may include a first levitator effective to levitate a first reactant droplet, while a second levitation zone may include a second levitator effective to levitate a second reactant droplet. The second reactant droplet may be distinct from the first reactant droplet. Some example microreactors may further include a third levitation zone that is arranged in spatial communication with the first and second levitation zones. The third levitation zone may be effective to facilitate a chemical reaction on the first and second reactant droplets while the first and second reactant droplets are levitated to produce a product.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2010Publication date: September 8, 2011Inventor: Jeffrey John Hagen
