Publication number: 20190370710Abstract: A device may receive, from a user device, information identifying a location of the user device. The device may determine, based on the information identifying the location, a facility associated with the location or a facility area within the facility. The device may determine one or more first tasks associated with the facility or one or more second tasks associated with the facility area. The device may transmit, to the user device, information identifying the one or more first tasks or the one or more second tasks. The device may receive, from the user device, a request to perform a task of the one or more first tasks or the one or more second tasks. The device may perform one or more actions relating to the task to produce information associated with the task. The device may transmit, to the user device, the information associated with the task.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2019Publication date: December 5, 2019Inventors: Christian Romer Pedrosa MACANDOG, Jason WARNKE, Thomas Anthony PARISI, Marcianne Reaksecker JENKINS, Russell MAIDMENT, Marjorie Jo DUKE, Clare Maria TIERNEY, Janet Leigh SMITH, Steven Ronald BOROWSKI, David F.

Patent number: 10139613Abstract: A method including sensing an image without magnification of a portion of a tissue sample; displaying the sensed image on a display; and performing at least one of the following: refreshing a sensed image at a predetermined rate, storing the sensed image, modifying the sensor to display pixel ratio, and sensing a magnified view of an area of the portion of the tissue sample. A digital microscope comprising: at least one image sensor; a first optic configured to project an image with a magnification of one or less; a second optic disposed between the at least one sensor and the stage, the second optic configured to project an image with a magnification greater than one; and a computer operable to direct an image capture by the at least one image sensor of a portion of a microslide on the stage projected through the first optic or the second optic.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2011Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: SAKURA FINETEK U.S.A., INC.Inventors: Paul Hing, Christian Romer, Sven Hensler

Publication number: 20100302799Abstract: A plurality of light sources are arranged with a light-guide structure such that light emitted by the sources propagates longitudinally through the light-guide structure. The light-guide structure scatters and/or redirects the emitted light and outputs the scattered and/or redirected light laterally. A controller is configured to dynamically correlate the light emitted from the plurality of light sources and to dynamically tune intensity of the light emitted from the plurality of light sources. The result is a dynamic light effect that appears to the observer as moving light.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 29, 2009Publication date: December 2, 2010Inventors: Christian Romer Rosberg, Casper Angelo, Herman Scherling
