  • DETECTING PLATELETS IN A BLOOD SAMPLE
    Publication number: 20230003622
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided including imaging a blood sample that is a cell suspension deposited in a sample chamber. The cells are allowed to settle in the sample chamber to form a monolayer of cells. At least one microscopic image is acquired of the monolayer of cells using a microscope (24) while the microscope is focused at a monolayer-depth-level, and a first platelet count of platelets that have settled within the monolayer, is determined. An additional microscopic image of the simple is acquired, while the microscope is focused at a different depth level from the monolayer-depth-level, and a second platelet count of platelets that have not settled within the monolayer is determined. An output is generated based upon the first and second platelet counts. Other applications are also described.

  • ACCOUNTING FOR ERRORS IN OPTICAL MEASUREMENTS
    Publication number: 20220390372
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described including preparing a blood sample for analysis by depositing the blood sample within a sample chamber (52), and placing the sample chamber, with the blood sample deposited therein, within a microscopy unit (24). One or more microscopic images of the sample chamber (52) with the blood sample deposited therein are acquired, using a microscope of the microscopy unit. Based upon the one or more images, an amount of one or more cell types within the sample chamber that had already settled within the sample chamber, prior to acquisition of the one or more microscopic images is determined. A characteristic of the sample is determined, at least partially in response thereto. Other applications are also described.

  • ACCOUNTING FOR ERRORS IN OPTICAL MEASUREMENTS
    Publication number: 20220381672
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described including placing at least a portion of a blood sample within a sample chamber (52), and acquiring microscopic images of the portion of the blood sample. Candidates of a given entity within the blood sample are identified, within the microscopic image. At least some of the candidates as being the given entity are validated, by performing further analysis of the candidates. A count of the candidates of the given entity is compared to a count of the validated candidates of the given entity, and at least the portion of the sample is invalidated from being used for performing at least some measurements upon the sample, at least partially based upon a relationship between the count of candidates and the count of validated candidates. Other applications are also described.

  • Article of manufacture using an industrial or commercial manufacturing process, wherein the article of manufacture comprises an infrared (IR) phosphorescent material
    Patent number: 11473012
    Abstract: This invention is a commercially manufactured article of manufacture (such as a shoulder patch) comprising an infrared (IR) phosphorescent material that emits in the IR wavelength range (e.g., from approximately seven-hundred nanometers (˜700 nm) to approximately one millimeter (˜1 mm)) after being excited by incident wavelengths of between ˜100 nm and ˜750 nm (or visible light). In other words, once the material has been exposed to visible light, the material will continue to emit in the IR wavelength range for a period of time, even when the material is no longer exposed to the visible light.

  • Face detection tracking and recognition for a visual prosthesis
    Patent number: 11393247
    Abstract: The present invention is a system for detecting, tracking and recognizing human faces in a visual prosthesis. In a visual prosthesis, the input camera is always higher resolution than the electrode array providing percepts to the subject. It is advantageous to detect, track and recognize human faces. This information can be provided to the subject by highlighting the face in the visual scene, providing auditor or vibratory notice that a human face is in the visual scene, looking up the face in a database to identify and annunciate the name of the person in the visual scene, or otherwise communicate the identity of the person, like providing a custom vibratory pattern corresponding to known individuals (like custom ring tones associated with caller ID) or automatically zooming in on a face to aid the subject in identifying the face.

  • Tracking device
    Patent number: 11368925
    Abstract: A tracking device comprises a controller and a location positioning device (such as GPS). The tracking device also includes a transceiver. In use, the controller reads position information from the GPS, and telemeters the location information using the transceiver. In some embodiments, the tracking device includes two transceivers, including a short-range wireless transceiver (such as Bluetooth), and a second transceiver that facilitates relatively longer-range communication compared to the short-range wireless transceiver. In alternative embodiments, the location positioning device is not required, such as where the tracking device includes a beacon or other absolute or relative locating device and/or locating functionality. The tracking device can also and/or alternatively include sensors and other features.
