Abstract: A gradient-based encoder mechanism for a rotary motor, linear motor, or other actuator can include a color sensor that measures a color at a certain point in front of the sensor. A scale in front of the sensor is encoded with different colors arranged to form one or more gradients. Each color represents a different absolute position of a shaft, screw, slide, belt, or other actuated element. Either the sensor or the scale is coupled to and moves with the actuated element. The other of the sensor or scale remains stationary. As a result, the color that is in front of the sensor changes as the actuated element moves. The color sensor outputs the color measurement to controller circuitry, which converts the color into an output signal representing the position of the actuated element. A combination rotary and linear encoder is also disclosed.

Abstract: This invention concerns in general treatment of diseases and pathological conditions with anti-VEGF antibodies. More specifically, the invention concerns the treatment of human patients susceptible to or diagnosed with cancer using an anti-VEGF antibody, preferably in combination with one or more additional anti-tumor therapeutic agents.
