  • Patent number: 12313570
    Abstract: A disclosed leaky coaxial resonant sensor system and methods. In use, the system includes at least one split-ring resonator (SRR) embedded within a material of the component. The at least one SRR is formed from a composite material. Additionally, the at least one SRR is configured to resonate at a first frequency in response to an interrogation signal from a leaky coaxial cable antenna. In some aspects, each SRR may resonate at a first frequency in response to an electromagnetic ping when the composite material is in a first state, and may resonate at a second frequency in response to the electromagnetic ping when the composite material is in a second state. A resonant frequency of the composite material may be based on physical characteristics of the composite material.

The field-enhancing zone includes a supply gas inlet that receives a supply gas, a reaction zone that generates a plasma in response to excitation of the supply gas by the microwave energy, a process inlet that injects a raw material into the reaction zone, and a constricted region that retains a portion of the plasma and combines the plasma and the raw material in response to the microwave energy within the reaction zone. An expansion chamber is in fluid communication with the constricted region facilitates expansion of the plasma. An outlet outputs a plurality of carbon-inclusive particles derived from the expanded plasma and the raw material.

  • Publication number: 20240417669
    Abstract: A resonant sensor is embedded within or applied to a component of a medical diagnostic apparatus. The resonant sensor is formed from a composite material. The resonant sensor undergoes a change of permittivity and/or change in permeability due to metabolic activity of a microorganism that is involved in the medical diagnostic and proximal to the resonant sensor. The medical diagnostic apparatus may be a blood culture bottle that is configured to contain a blood culture medium. The resonant sensor may be embedded in or applied to the exterior or interior wall of the blood culture bottle. The resonant sensor may undergo a change in permittivity and/or a change in permeability due to production of carbon dioxide by the microorganism. The composite material may comprise a carbonaceous material such as graphene.

  • Publication number: 20240288381
    Abstract: Methods and system to learn precise sensing fingerprints based on machine learning integration are disclosed herein. In use, the system receives at least one first parameter associated with at least one sensor and associates the first parameter with a pre-identified first digital signature in a signature database. A machine learning system is trained based on the first parameter and the pre-identified digital signature. The system then receives at least one second parameter from the at least one sensor and determines that the second parameter is independent of a digital signature in the signature database. Using the machine learning system, a second digital signature for the second parameter is identified and saved in the signature database.
