  • Patent number: 10330597
    Abstract: Apparatus for enhancing on-chip fluorescence detection. For example, an apparatus comprises a microfluidic channel, an excitation signal enhancing structure formed on a first side of the microfluidic channel and a photodetector structure formed on a second side of the microfluidic channel. For example, the excitation signal enhancing structure enhances an excitation signal and the enhanced excitation signal excites one or more samples in the microfluidic channel to emit signals at a fluorescence wavelength at a higher rate.

  • Patent number: 9961251
    Abstract: A computer-implementable method of adjusting a control parameter of an image capture device includes detecting, determining, and transmitting. At an interactive display device, a substantially continuous user selection of values of a control parameter of the image capture device is detected from user manipulation of a continuously-variable input control of the interactive display device. A rate of change is determined of the user selected values of the control parameter during user manipulation of the continuously-variable input control. Based upon at least the determined rate of change, it is determined whether to transmit each of the selected values. The selected values are sequentially transmitted to the image capture device, via a communications network, where the selected values are determined to be transmitted. Each of the transmitted values is transmitted as an interim control parameter value, and the transmitted values are adapted to adjust the control parameter of the image capture device.

  • Patent number: 9164967
    Abstract: A package installer identifies a font package that facilitates rendering a font of a file being opened by a user based on font metadata downloaded from the remote server. The font metadata includes information identifying one or more font packages available for download from the remote server. Font metadata associated with each font package further indicates one or more fonts supported by the corresponding font package. A graphical user interface (GUI) is displayed to the user prompting whether the user desires to install the identified font package. The GUI further indicates that an additional font needs to be installed in order to view the file correctly. In response to an input from the user via the GUI, the package installer downloads the font package from the remote server for local installation.

  • Patent number: 8365656
    Abstract: A rotary food processor including a base unit, drive elements provided with a rotary motor spindle, an active processing implement, a driveshaft to drive the active implement, and wherein the driveshaft is movable from a rest position to an active position in which it rotates by a force applied by a user. The driveshaft is a hollow shaft which defines an open housing in which the rotary spindle is at least partially retained and the rotary spindle freely rotates within the housing when the driveshaft is in the rest position.
