Publication number: 20240091770Abstract: The invention provides analyzers that improve tests for detecting specific cellular, viral, and molecular targets in clinical, industrial, or environmental samples. The invention permits efficient and specific selection and sensitive imaging detection of individual microscopic targets at low magnification. Automated embodiments allow efficient walk-away, on-demand, random-access high-throughput testing. The analyzers perform tests without requiring wash steps thus streamlining engineering and lowering costs. Thus, the invention provides analyzers that can deliver rapid, accurate, and quantitative, easy-to-use, and cost-effective tests for analytes.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Bruce Walsh, Boris Blanter, Matthew Barra, Brian Connolly, Greg Yantz, Paul Gervasio, Don Straus

Patent number: 11709925Abstract: Embodiments herein describe using visual passwords to control access to secure information. When a user attempts to access the secure information, she can provide her username to an authentication agent which identifies the visual password corresponding to the received username and selects a first set of images that contains the visual password and a second set of images that does not. The first and second sets of images are then transmitted to a user device. The user device can display the first and second sets of images to the user who selects which images have the visual password. An indication of which images the user selected is then transmitted to the authentication engine which determines whether the user selected all the images in the first set and none of the images in the second set. If so, the user is granted access to the secure information.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2018Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tristan Bellman-Greenwood, Brian Connolly, Zachary Philip Wilson
