  • Patent number: 10092182
    Abstract: A modular lens adapter system or kit is provided for mobile anterior and posterior segment ophthalmoscopy. Equipped with various lens adapter modules, respective lenses and a mobile imaging device, a user is provided with tools for various mobile ophthalmoscopy imaging applications. Eye care practitioners can use their existing lenses to customize the modular lens adapter system in a cost-effective way, which allows for mobile and remote capture, viewing, and utilization of clinical images. The various modules are also adaptable to nearly any type of phone or tablet regardless of its dimensions or presence of a protective case. The invention also addresses the need for fewer, smaller, less expensive, and easier to use ophthalmic imaging equipment, which is further important in enabling a broad base of users.

  • Patent number: 10039195
    Abstract: A method for forming a three-dimensional object with at least one conductive trace comprises providing an intermediate structure that is generated (e.g., additively or subtractively generated) from a first material in accordance with a model design of the three-dimensional object. The intermediate structure may have at least one predefined location for the at least one conductive trace. The model design includes the at least one predefined location. Next, the at least one conductive trace may be generated adjacent to the at least one predefined location of the intermediate structure. The at least one conductive trace may be formed of a second material that has an electrical and/or thermal conductivity that is greater than the first material.

  • Publication number: 20180116509
    Abstract: Modular lens adapter system are provided for use with a hand held computer device having a camera for mobile ophthalmoscopy. The modular lens adapter systems include an anterior adapter and a posterior adapter configured to removably engage with a hand held computer device. The anterior adapter can include a variable intensity light source, a clamp, and a movable macro lens. The posterior adapter can include a hand held computer device mount, a lens mount, and a telescoping arm with a first end and a second end with the first end configured to removably engage with the mount and the second end configured to contact the lens mount. Methods are also provided for using the systems to obtain an image of an anterior portion of the patient's eye and a posterior portion of the patient's eye.

  • Publication number: 20170208700
    Abstract: Various embodiments of a modular electromechanical device are described herein. The modular electromechanical device includes a chassis and a plurality of functional modules that can be connected to the chassis. Each module is associated with a different functionality. The functionality of the modular electromechanical device is defined based on various attributes including the functionality of the different functional modules that are connected to the electromechanical device, the sequence in which the different functional modules are connected to the electromechanical device, the specific attachment structures used to attach the functional modules to the electromechanical device, or a pattern of traces formed within the chassis.
