  • Patent number: 11998276
    Abstract: A reflectometry instrument includes a light source for emitting an illumination beam that illuminates the macula. A portion of the illumination beam is reflected from the macula and forms a detection beam. The detection beam is indicative of macular pigment in the macula. The instrument also includes a first mirror for reflecting the illumination beam toward the macula and for reflecting the detection beam from the macula. The instrument is configured so that the illumination beam and the detection beam remain separated between the macula and the first mirror.

  • Publication number: 20240061042
    Abstract: A method for a serial protocol-based event trigger includes detecting a condition of a Device Under Test (DUT) with a first text pattern, wherein the condition indicates an enabled function of the DUT. A command is transmitted to the DUT to perform a first action with the enabled function in response to detecting the condition of the DUT. A second text pattern received from the DUT is detected in response to the first action. The second text pattern indicates a successful completion of an event by the enabled function. A second action is performed in response to detecting the second text pattern.

  • Patent number: 11864651
    Abstract: A closing device includes a rack body having an elongated rack and being slidably coupled to a base, with a catch pivotally coupled to the rack body and a gear pivotally coupled to the base and engaging the elongated rack. A first biasing member is coupled to the base and rack body and provides a substantially linear biasing force. A second biasing member is coupled to the base and gear, and the elongated rack and gear engagement provides a mechanical advantage and a non-linear biasing force. The closing device is for use in a drawer slide having a latch coupled to a first drawer slide member and the base coupled to a second drawer slide member, with the latch releasably coupled to the catch to move the drawer slide to a closed position.
