Patent number: 11972175Abstract: A platform for design of a lighting installation generally includes an automated search engine for retrieving and storing a plurality of lighting objects in a lighting object library and a lighting design environment providing a visual representation of a lighting space containing lighting space objects and lighting objects. The visual representation is based on properties of the lighting space objects and lighting objects obtained from the lighting object library. A plurality of aesthetic filters is configured to permit a designer in a design environment to adjust parameters of the plurality of lighting objects handled in the design environment to provide a desired collective lighting effect using the plurality of lighting objects.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Korrus, Inc.Inventors: Benjamin James Harrison, Shruti Koparkar, Mark Reynoso, Paul Pickard, Raghuram L. V. Petluri, Gary Vick, Andrew Villegas

Publication number: 20240105698Abstract: An example of a pixel module comprises a module substrate having light emitters disposed on a light-emitter surface and a controller disposed on a controller surface opposed to the light-emitter surface. At least one module electrode is electrically connected to the controller and at least one module electrode is electrically connected to each light emitter. An example of a pixel-module wafer comprises a module source wafer comprising sacrificial portions and module anchors, each sacrificial portion laterally separated from an adjacent sacrificial portion by a module anchor and a pixel module disposed entirely over each sacrificial portion. At least one module tether physically connects each of the pixel modules to at least one of the module anchors. An example of a pixel-module display comprises a display substrate, pixel modules disposed on the display substrate and display electrodes disposed on the display substrate, each display electrode electrically connected to a module electrode.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 7, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Christopher Andrew Bower, Matthew Alexander Meitl, Ronald S. Cok, Salvatore Bonafede, Brook Raymond, Andrew Tyler Pearson, Erik Paul Vick

Publication number: 20220156880Abstract: Systems and methods for compressing and decompressing a sequence of images are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: retrieve the captured visual information from electronic storage; extract a portion from the captured visual information; compress the extracted portion horizontally into a compressed video sequence; create a container that is configured to contain the compressed video sequence; and store the container in electronic storage. The compressed video sequence is decompressed for presentation to users.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2019Publication date: May 19, 2022Applicant: STX Financing, LLCInventors: Richard Rey, Andrew Vick, Bettina Martin

Publication number: 20070253966Abstract: The invention provides active therapeutic peptides fused to specific IgG4-Fc derivatives. These fusion proteins have an increased half-life, reduced half antibody formation, and reduced effector activity, while not being immnunogenic. The fusion proteins are useful in treating human diseases as well as a variety of other conditions or disorders.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2004Publication date: November 1, 2007Applicant: Eli Lilly and CompanyInventors: Wolfgang Glaesner, Rohn Millican Jr, Yu Tian, Sheng-Hung Tschang, Andrew Vick

Publication number: 20070036806Abstract: The invention provides specific GLP-1 analogs fused to specific IgG4-Fc derivatives. These fusion proteins have an increased half-life, decreased immunogenicity, and reduce effector activity. The fusion proteins are useful in treating diabetes, obesity, irritable bowel syndrome and other conditions that would be benefited by lowering plasma glucose, inhibiting gastric and/or intestinal motility and inhibiting gastric and/or intestinal emptying, or inhibiting food intake.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2004Publication date: February 15, 2007Applicant: Eli Lilly and CompanyInventors: Wolfgang Glaesner, Rohn Millican, Andrew Vick

Patent number: 4115864Abstract: A fail safe detector in a cardiac monitoring system provides an alarm to indicate failure of the system to respond to cardiac waveforms supplied thereto from cardiac waveform sources. A time out circuit will produce the alarm if not periodically reset by pulses produced in response to measurement of cardiac waveforms. Means are provided for sensing whether cardiac waveforms are received from the sources to provide an alternate means of triggering periodic reset signals when no waveforms are received from the sources to prevent false alarms.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 1977Date of Patent: September 19, 1978Assignee: Hycel, Inc.Inventors: Howard Andrew Vick, Donald B. Johnson

Patent number: 4086631Abstract: In a hematology analyzer, peaks of pulses indicative of red blood cells in a sample during a count are detected. Peak detecting means produce a gate signal connected to gate means which couple a portion of each pulse in the time vicinity of its peak to integration means. The level accumulated in the integration means is indicative of total cell volume, and hence indicative of hematocrit for a known sample volume.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1976Date of Patent: April 25, 1978Assignees: Hycel, Inc., Hycel, Inc.Inventor: Howard Andrew Vick

Patent number: 4052596Abstract: A hematology analyzer provides a pulse signal in which the number of pulses manifests the number of blood cells in a sample volume of blood and the magnitude of each pulse manifests the size of each such blood cell. The analyzer also provides an analog voltage manifesting the hemoglobin content of the blood sample. Means responsive to the pulse signal provide an analog voltage manifesting the hematocrit of the blood sample and an analog voltage manifesting the number of cells. An analog-to-digital converter is switchably responsive to the analog hemoglobin, hematocrit and cell count signals to provide required ratios reflecting the mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration of the blood sample.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 1974Date of Patent: October 4, 1977Assignee: Hycel, Inc.Inventor: Howard Andrew Vick
