Abstract: This patent provides a method and apparatus for improving the spatial resolution of the display, so that it appears less pixelated. This is accomplished by generating a first portion of an image that corresponds to a user's fovea and a second portion of the image that corresponds to areas of non-fovea regions of the retina. For the region of the image that corresponds to the fovea, the display uses high spatial resolution of pixels, so that the display is optimized for the user's central vision which has the highest visual acuity. For regions of the image that do not correspond to the fovea, the display uses a lower spatial resolution of pixels. Furthermore, the first portion of the image with the high spatial resolution can be moved within the image so as to accommodate various look angles and convergence points of the user.

Abstract: A method of retrofitting a plurality of LED bulbs to a fluorescent tube fixture with a ballast, a fluorescent tube receptacle, a reflector housing and a lens comprises: removing the lens from the reflector housing; disconnecting the ballast from a mains power supply line and removing the ballast and the fluorescent tube receptacle from the housing. The mains mains power supply is wired to a plurality of Edison socket light-emitting diode (LED) bulb sockets extending from a body defining an electrical junction box and threading a plurality of LED bulbs into the bulb sockets. The electrical junction box is mounted to the reflector housing. The fixture lens is reinstalled to the housing such that the bulb adapter is received in an enclosure defined by the housing and the lens.

Abstract: This patent discloses an apparatus that protects a user's eyes from the dangerous particulates in the atmosphere.

Abstract: A method for improved 3D imaging of a volume is disclosed. The application discussed is improved assessment of complex 3D structures including breast microcalcifications and incorporation of geo-registered tools. The 3D imaging is displayed on a geo-registered head display unit.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system includes a ground layer, a first layer, a second layer, and a plurality of vias. The first layer includes a first insulating material and a plurality of first metallic strips. The second layer includes a second insulating material and a plurality of second metallic strips. The plurality of vias electrically connect one or more of the plurality of first metallic strips of the first layer to one or more of the plurality of second metallic strips of the second layer. The plurality of first metallic strips of the first layer and the plurality of second metallic strips of the second layer form a plurality of capacitors and a plurality of conductors. Each capacitor is located in the first layer. Each conductor is partially located in the first layer and partially located in the second layer.

Abstract: This patent includes a method and apparatus for the generation of a simulated, realistic 3D radiological dataset from CT, MRI, PET, SPECT or DTS examinations. This simulated dataset can be segmented, filtered, manipulated, used with artificial intelligence algorithms and viewed in conjunction with head display units and geo-registered tools.

Abstract: An interactive 3D cursor facilitates selection and manipulation of a three-dimensional volume from a three-dimensional image. The selected volume image may be transparency-adjusted and filtered to remove selected tissues from view. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of tissues in a selected volume may be performed. Location indicators, annotations, and registration markers may be overlaid on selected volume images.

Abstract: A computerized medical diagnostic system uses a training dataset that is updated based on reports generated by a radiologist. AI and/or CAD is used to make an initial determination of no finding, finding, or diagnosis based on the training dataset. Normal results with a high confidence of no finding are not reviewed by the radiologist. Low confidence results, findings, and diagnosis are reviewed by the radiologist. The radiologist generates a report that associates terminology and weighting with marked 3D image volumes. The report is used to update the training dataset.
