  • Patent number: 11085869
    Abstract: Systems for detecting light (e.g., in a flow stream) are described. Light detection systems according to embodiments include two or more photodetector arrays and an optical adjustment component positioned in an optical path between the photodetector arrays. Systems and methods for measuring light emitted by a sample (e.g., in a flow stream) and kits having two or more photodetector arrays and an optical adjustment component are also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20190213486
    Abstract: Build up a financial knowledge base by automated reading and analysis of financial articles. The knowledge base starts with a default set of financial keywords. The knowledge base is expanded on the financial keywords detected during the reading process. The Artificial Intelligence Virtual Adaptive Learning of Financial Articles Bot (“AI Financial Reader Bot”) simulates the processes of human adaptive learning through the expansion of its knowledge base via the keywords.

  • Publication number: 20190215368
    Abstract: The IoT Toothbrush will be the first device to interact with the human fingers daily, collecting vital signs using a certain special sensor. The proposed IoT Toothbrush will collect vital signs from the incorporated sensor, which will transfer to the network device's so-called Toothbrush-Hub. The Toothbrush-Hub will utilize Bluetooth technology to communicate with the IoT Toothbrush and Wi-Fi protocol to communicate with the Server Software to monitor the user's health.

  • Patent number: 8883291
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for coating metal oxide on a PDMS surface. The method includes preparing a mixture that contains a sol-gel precursor, reacting the mixture to form a preconverted sol-gel precursor, where the preconverted sol-gel precursor does not diffuse into PDMS and is not in the form of a gel, forming a reactive PDMS surface, applying the preconverted sol-gel precursor onto the reactive PDMS surface, binding the preconverted sol-gel precursor to the re-active PDMS surface, and converting the bound preconverted sol-gel precursor to a metal oxide to form a metal oxide coating on the PDMS surface. The present invention also provides a PDMS microfluidic device where one or more channels of the microfluidic device is provided with a metal oxide coating covalently bound only on the surface of the one or more channels.
