Patent number: 9474488Abstract: A neural sensor includes a substrate defining an array of vias passing therethrough, a plurality of conductive surfaces, a light source, a plurality of groups of quantum dot-based luminescence units and a charge-coupled device (CCD) array. Each via allows a neurite to grow therethrough. Each conductive surface is adjacent to a different via and is electrically coupled thereto. The light source directs light toward the substrate. Each group of quantum dot-based luminescence units extends upwardly from a different one of the conductive surfaces generates light at a different predetermined wavelength when excited with light from the light source. Each luminescence unit changes its luminescence when electrically stimulated by a neural potential generated by a neurite. The CCD detects luminescence from each of the plurality of groups of quantum dot-based luminescence units and generates a signal representative of intensity of each wavelength of light detected.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2014Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: Neural Signals, Inc.Inventors: Philip R.

Publication number: 20130310901Abstract: A method for modulating nerve tissue in a body of a patient includes implanting a wireless stimulation device in proximity to a dorsal root ganglion or an exiting nerve root such that an electrode, circuitry and a receiving antenna are positioned completely within the body of the patient. An input signal containing electrical energy and waveform parameters is transmitted to the receiving antenna(s) from a control device located outside of the patient's body via radiative coupling. The circuitry within the stimulation device generates one or more electrical impulses and applies the electrical impulses to the dorsal root ganglion or the exiting nerve roots through the electrode.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2013Publication date: November 21, 2013Applicant: Neural Diabetes, LLCInventors: Laura Tyler Perryman, Chad Andresen, Gary King, Anthony Yeung

Patent number: 8306931Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for detecting, classifying, and tracking abnormal data in a data stream. Embodiments include an integrated set of algorithms that enable an analyst to detect, characterize, and track abnormalities in real-time data streams based upon historical data labeled as predominantly normal or abnormal. Embodiments of the invention can detect, identify relevant historical contextual similarity, and fuse unexpected and unknown abnormal signatures with other possibly related sensor and source information. The number, size, and connections of the neural networks all automatically adapted to the data. Further, adaption appropriately and automatically integrates unknown and known abnormal signature training within one neural network architecture solution automatically. Algorithms and neural networks architecture are data driven, resulting more affordable processing.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2009Date of Patent: November 6, 2012Assignee: Data Fusion & Neural Networks, LLCInventors: Christopher Bowman, Duane DeSieno
