Patent number: 11346803Abstract: A test strip and analytical apparatus have pin connections permitting the definition of geographic regions or of particular customers. A test strip made for use in a particular region or for a particular customer will have pin connections matching features of the apparatus made for use in that region or by that customer. Insertion of the strip into the apparatus does not merely turn on the apparatus, but provides the regional or customer coding. Analog switches within the apparatus allow coding of a larger number of distinct regions or customers than would otherwise be possible, all without degrading the quality of the measurements made of the fluid being tested. Conductive paths in the strips permit testing the strips during manufacture so as to detect quality lapses regarding the printing or deposition of the paths.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2017Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Assignee: AgaMatrix, Inc.Inventors: Steven Diamond, Martin Forest, Baoguo Wei, Ian Harding, Sridhar Iyengar

Patent number: 10520458Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for creating test strips that may be identified based on differences in electrical conduction or resistance between contact point on the test strip. This is achieved by creating a base test strip with contact points that may be connected to other contact points by an electrical connection. These base test strips may be modified to create a difference in electrical conductivity between contact points, or a contact point may be eliminated. This modification can be used to distinguish different types of test strips based on electrical signature. Additionally, the base test strip may be created such that multiple modifications are possible to distinguish numerous characteristics of test strips.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2016Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: AgaMatrix, Inc.Inventors: Charles Boiteau, Martin Forest, Sridhar Iyengar, Baoguo Wei

Patent number: 10348866Abstract: A system is configured to provide an IoT device with access to cloud resources. The system includes a backend system configured to provide at least one service selected from a group consisting of: data management, file management, user management, and device management. The system also includes an IoT client device including an IoT device and a backend services module in communication with the IoT device, the IoT client device is configured to communicate with the backend system over a wide area network. The backend services module includes an IoT protocol engine configured to identify an API call for the backend system from a message communicated from the IoT device and a backend services API engine in communication with the IoT protocol engine, the backend services module configured to generate the identified API call.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2017Date of Patent: July 9, 2019Assignee: Wuhan MBaaS Computing Co. Ltd.Inventors: Zhishuai Yin, Baoguo Wei

Patent number: 9846140Abstract: A method is provided for determining analyte concentrations, for example glucose concentrations, that utilizes a dynamic determination of the appropriate time for making a glucose measurement, for example when a current versus time curve substantially conforms to a Cottrell decay, or when the current is established in a plateau region. Dynamic determination of the time to take the measurement allows each strip to operate in the shortest appropriate time frame, thereby avoiding using an average measurement time that may be longer than necessary for some strips and too short for others.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2016Date of Patent: December 19, 2017Assignee: AgaMatrix, Inc.Inventors: Steven Diamond, Ian Harding, Sridhar G.

Publication number: 20160364549Abstract: System and method for monitoring a patient's health condition is disclosed. The system assesses the patient's health condition based on a data collected by observing the physical activity of the patient and the physical state of the patient. The physical state is measured by vital sign measuring sensors. The patient's health condition is assessed by the system by collectively analyzing the physical activity, the physical state, and a correlation among the acquired data. Further, an authorized personnel issues an intervention to interact with the patient and to validate the assessment of the patient's health condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 15, 2016Publication date: December 15, 2016Inventors: Baoguo Wei, Ravi Kuppuraj
