Patent number: 11972371Abstract: The present invention can provide a hotel reservation system that searches for vacant rooms at lower prices even after making a reservation. A method of hotel reservation that is performed by a server, comprises steps of: obtaining identification information corresponding to vacant rooms of hotels from external servers; obtaining reservation information of a vacant room from a user terminal; transmitting to the user terminal whether a reservation is confirmed; searching for a first vacant room available within a predetermined period from a check-in date until before the check-in date; and providing a reservation change notification through the user terminal if determining the vacant room with the lower price than that of the reserved vacant room by comparing a price of the reserved vacant room and a price of the first vacant room that is available within the predetermined period.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Inventor: So Hyun Ahn

Patent number: 11964250Abstract: Methods and systems for synthesizing multicompartment capsules are disclosed, as well as multicompartment polymer capsules formed in accordance with disclosed techniques. At least one plurality of polymer capsules are formed via a capsule-forming process. A feed solution and a reservoir solution are provided, each comprising a biopolymer. The feed solution biopolymer and the reservoir solution biopolymer have opposite charges. Droplets of the feed solution are introduced into the reservoir solution, thereby forming via electrostatic complexation a plurality of polymer capsules. At least a portion of the resulting polymer capsules are then encapsulated in a larger polymer capsule via a similar process, wherein the feed solution utilized for the encapsulation process also comprises the formed smaller capsules.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2018Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Inventors: Hyuntaek Oh, Srinivasa R. Raghavan, William E. Bentley, Xi Lu, Jessica Lynn Terrell, So Hyun Ahn

Publication number: 20210324365Abstract: A method of system of forming a biopolymer hydrogel structure includes a mold loaded with a cation. At least a portion of the surface of the mold is exposed to a solution comprising a gellable polymer such as alginate. An electric potential is applied to the mold so that the cation therein and the gellable polymer migrate via electrophoresis toward the surface portion, thereby interacting and forming a hydrogel structure adjacent to the surface portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 20, 2021Publication date: October 21, 2021Applicant: University of Maryland, College ParkInventors: Srinivasa R. Raghavan, So Hyun Ahn, Ankit Gargava

Patent number: 9980682Abstract: A curved movable beam-stop array which has a generator, a curved grid and a controller. The generator generates radiation beams while rotating to a gantry angle. The curved grid is positioned in the radiation direction of the radiation beams generated from the generator. The controller controls operations of the grid. A plurality of slits of the grid are spaced apart from each other at a predetermined distance and allow at least a portion of the radiation beams generated from the generator to pass through. The controller moves the slit by a predetermined distance when the generator moves by a predefined angle.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2014Date of Patent: May 29, 2018Assignees: GIL MEDICAL CENTER, GACHON UNIVERSITY OF INDUSTRY-ACADEMIC COOPERATION FOUNDATIONInventors: So Hyun Ahn, Kyu Chan Lee

Publication number: 20170105684Abstract: Disclosed is a curved movable beam-stop array (BSA) which can be applied to accurately and efficiently improve the quality of images of a cone-beam CT (CBCT) system, and particularly, can be applied to not only a simulation CBCT system necessary for radiotherapy and a CBCT system mounted in a radiotherapy apparatus but also to a wide range of fields including plastic surgery, maxillofacial surgery, dental surgery, and the like. The BSA comprises a generator, a curved grid and a controller. The generator generates radiation beams while rotating to a gantry angle. The curved grid is positioned in the radiation direction of the radiation beams generated from the generator. The controller controls operations of the grid. In the BSA, the grid comprises a plurality of slits spaced apart from each other at a predetermined distance, the plurality of slits allowing at least a portion of the radiation beams generated from the generator to pass through.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2014Publication date: April 20, 2017Inventors: So Hyun AHN, Kyu Chan LEE
