Publication number: 20180164240Abstract: A sensor for the detection of an analyte in a fluid includes an electrode having a detection surface, a polydopamine layer adhered to the electrode detection surface; and optionally a receptor chemically functionalized to the polydopamine of the detection surface of the electrode. The receptor selectively binds to the analyte of interest and the analyte once bound is detectable by measuring the change of capacitance of the electrode.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2018Publication date: June 14, 2018Inventors: James M.

Publication number: 20170002399Abstract: Provided herein is a fluidic cartridge having a body comprising a malleable material and a layer comprising a deformable material bonded to a surface of the body that seals one or more fluidic channels that communicate with one or more valve bodies formed in a surface of the body. The valve can be closed by applying pressure to the deformable material sufficient to crush and close off a fluidic channel in the body. Also provided are a cartridge interface configured to engage the cartridge. Also provided is a system including a cartridge interface and methods of using the cartridge and system.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2015Publication date: January 5, 2017Inventors: David Eberhart, William D.

Publication number: 20140099998Abstract: A mobile communication device that may be used by an investigator to secretly record a suspect and track the investigator's location includes a microphone for detecting sounds, a communication component for transmitting signals or data representative of the sounds to one of the portable computers via the wireless communication network, a display for displaying information related to operation of the device, a computing device, and a computer program implemented by the computing device. The computer program is operable to place the device in a stealth mode in which the display is turned off or otherwise deactivated to make the entire device appear to be turned off while the microphone continues to detect sounds and the communication component continues to transmit signals or data representative of the sounds to a surveillance or support team operating one of the portable computers.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2013Publication date: April 10, 2014Applicant: SUR-TEC, INC.Inventors: Corey Smith, Todd Dupriest

Publication number: 20110167015Abstract: Concentration risk, for example, refers to the risk of over-concentrating organizational resources. For example, if an organization over-concentrates its employees that work on a particular process in a small number of geographic locations, then, depending on the importance of the particular process, the organization assumes the risk that its operational continuity may be disrupted if one of those geographic locations experiences a disruption. Embodiments of the present invention assess the redundancy and criticality of each identified process within the organization, where redundancy refers to the organization's capacity to move work on a particular process from one center to another center in the event a disruption occurs at one of the centers and where criticality refers to the importance of a particular process to the organization. Based the redundancy and criticality assessments, embodiments of the present invention calculate a concentration-risk score for each of the identified processes.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2010Publication date: July 7, 2011Applicant: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Corey Smith, Lee Hardee, Jason Latta, Richard Mattingly, Ruben Berumen, Anurag Amatya
