Abstract: A non-powered mattress including a cover enclosing a frame structure and a bladder assembly, the cover adapted to engage an articulated frame to control movement of portions of the foam frame and the bladder assembly in response to movement of the articulated frame.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are platforms, systems, and methods including a cell culture system that includes a cell culture container comprising a cell culture, the cell culture receiving input cells, a cell imaging subsystem configured to acquire images of the cell culture, a computing subsystem configured to perform a cell culture process on the cell culture according to the images acquired by the cell imaging subsystem, and a cell editing subsystem configured to edit the cell culture to produce output cell products according to the cell culture process.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for processes related to cell culture and generation. A system for culturing cells comprises a cell culture container comprising a first surface, the first surface being configured for one or more cell colonies to adhere thereto; an image sensor configured to capture one or more time-series images of a first cell colony in the one or more cell colonies; a computing subsystem configured to iteratively manage a surface area of the first cell colony according to a method comprising: calculating the surface area of the first cell colony as the first cell colony proliferates, selecting a portion of the first cell colony to remove to reduce the surface area of the first cell colony when its surface area is above a predetermined threshold, and removing, using a cell removal tool, the selected portion of the first cell colony from the first surface.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for processes related to cell culture and generation. A system for culturing cells a cell culture container comprises a first surface, the first surface being configured for a plurality of cell colonies to continuously adhere thereto throughout a cell culture process; an image sensor configured to capture one or more time-series images of the plurality of cell colonies during the cell culture process; a cell removal tool configured to remove one or more cells from the first surface of the cell culture container during the cell culture process; and a computing subsystem configured to: track one or more characteristics of the plurality of cell colonies based on the one or more time-series images, and control the cell removal tool to remove cells based on the one or more characteristics.

Abstract: A mattress overlay apparatus is provided for use with a mattress. The mattress overlay apparatus includes an overlay configured for placement atop the mattress and having a plurality of inflatable bladders, a blower, and first and second rotary plate valves pneumatically coupled to the plurality of bladders and the blower. The first and second rotary plate valves are arranged in series between the plurality of bladders and the blower. The first and second rotary plate valves and the blower are operated to provide the overlay with percussion and vibration (P&V), left and right turn assist, and microclimate management (MCM) functionality.

Abstract: A lift chair includes a lift mechanism that maintains a continuous seating position during forward and elevated movement by supporting the occupant's seat, arms and back. The mobile section of the chair will also lower the occupant to the normal seating height. The gel cushion seating surface is attached at least to the moveable section of the lift chair. The gel cushion seating surface of the chair has a plurality of gel cushion cylinders arranged in a grid that provide a rhythmically changing support area at multiple points on the occupant's buttocks and thighs. This provides a comforting massage which reduces stress on the body associated with prolonged seating.

Abstract: A gel cushion seating, back, and neck surface is attached to or integrated with the seat and/or back sections of a chair. The gel cushion seating surface of the chair has a plurality of gel cushion cylinders arranged in an array to provide a rhythmically changing support area at multiple points on the occupant's back, neck, or buttocks and thighs. This provides a comforting massage, which reduces stress on the body associated with prolonged seating. The gel cushion back surface of the chair has a plurality of gel cushion cylinders arranged in a grid that provide a rhythmically changing support at multiple points on the occupant's lumbar and center back, also including the spine and neck. Various “cams” translate torque into the specified motion of gel cushion cylinders.
