Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system for guided growth where the implanted physeal tether device can be unlocked using a non-invasive, transcutaneous technique. In one embodiment, a guided growth implant device, consisting of at least two locked pieces at time of surgical implant, can be non-surgically unlocked in-situ, thus halting the guided growth process on demand without requiring additional surgery. In another embodiment, a guided growth implant device can be unlocked using a magnetic or electromagnetic coupling technique. In another embodiment, a guided growth system consists of a device that is implanted to constrain/tether physeal growth and an external actuator tool that is used to non-invasively, non-surgically unlock the implanted device thus halting the guided growth process.

Abstract: Hardware, systems and software methods insure compliance of personnel in jobs where sanitized hands are dependent on washing according to time intervals. The system includes a hand-hygiene station, a sanitizing dispensing device, a computer and a communication channel. A wearable vibration and visual alert device communicates, illuminates and vibrates dependent on timing between hand washing utilizing sensors positioned both adjacent to a hand washing station and installed in un-sanitized areas. Each of the plurality of sensors may be configured to provide a corresponding sensor output signal that is indicative of whether a person has washed their hands at a hand washing station.

Abstract: An electrical feedthrough assembly has a lower assembly having a first end and a second end. The lower assembly includes an outer body with a lower housing and an upper housing disposed within a bore of the outer body and a first conductor extending from the lower housing to the upper housing. Additionally, the lower housing extends axial outward from the outer body to form the first end and the upper housing extends axial outward from the outer body to form the second end. Further, the electrical feedthrough assembly has an upper assembly having body extending from a first end to a second end. The second body includes a pin end at the first end and the pin end is inserted into an opening of the second end of the lower assembly. A second conductor is disposed within the body. A chamber within the body holds the first conductor.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a machine learning-based device placement and configuration service is provided. The machine learning-based device placement and configuration system uses regression models calculated from installation and performance data. The regression model includes data associated with sites at which video cameras were previously installed and tested for detection accuracy levels possibly associated with a service area. With these generated models, information about the physical space, and desired performance criteria, designers optimize camera number, camera placement, and geo-location camera parameters. The device placement and configuration service may find an optimal camera placement and geo-location camera parameter set which satisfy certain criteria. The geo-location parameters include position, height, heading, pitch, and roll.

Abstract: A method and system for electronically facilitating loan closing transactions that include sub-transactions involving third parties. The method and system provide functionality to quickly and easily order a sub-transaction and bill the respective party, or pay for the sub-transaction directly from various payment systems. An interactive closing document updates automatically as different services and sub-transactions are ordered. Designated parties to the transaction make and approve changes and updates to the interactive document as sub-transactions are completed and billed. The interactive document receives information from the earlier stages of the loan or mortgage transaction, and incorporates the information into the interactive closing document. Upon approval by all parties, at the closing of the transaction, the interactive closing document is generated as a hard copy for signature.

Abstract: An identified 90 bp sequence insertion in the GB0331 genome disrupts the coding sequence of the FAD2-1D gene near the 3? end of the protein coding region. This sequence is not found in reference genomes of other Gossypium species. This DNA segment can be used to track the high oleic fad-2-1D mutant allele for introgression into cotton varieties such as Pima and upland cotton varieties. This enables a non-GMO strategy to elevate the oleic acid content of commercial cottonseed oil.
