Publication number: 20240124921Abstract: Detecting analytes using proximity-induced tagmentation, strand invasion, restriction, or ligation is provided herein. In some examples, detecting an analyte includes coupling a donor recognition probe to a first portion of the analyte. The donor recognition probe includes a first recognition element specific to the first portion of the analyte, a first oligonucleotide corresponding to the first portion, and a transposase coupled to the first recognition element and the first oligonucleotide. An acceptor recognition probe is coupled to a second portion of the analyte. The acceptor recognition probe includes a second recognition element specific to the second portion of the analyte and a second oligonucleotide coupled to the second recognition element and corresponding to the second portion. The transposase is used to generate a reporter polynucleotide including the first and second oligonucleotides. The analyte is detected based on the reporter including comprising the first and second oligonucleotides.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Andrew KENNEDY, Sarah SHULTZABERGER, Kayla BUSBY, Colin BROWN, Andrew PRICE, Eric VERMAAS, Rigoberto PANTOJA, Matthew Feeley, Jennifer ZOU, Yong LI, Sepideh ALMASI, Anindita DUTTA, Michelle ALVAREZ

Patent number: 11941948Abstract: Table-based gaming actions are disclosed where additional prizes or other gains can be awarded after spinning of a first reward determining wheel of chance by spinning of one or more further wheels of chance where the further spinnings are enabled by a previous spin outcome landing on an outcome selecting segment that awards a partial reward and also awards the spinning of the next successive wheel of chance. Each of the successive wheels of chance is different from the others such that a variety of reward possibilities is provided. For one embodiment, a bonus awarding segment of the first wheel has a highest probability of occurrence and a lowest initial payout value.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: AGS LLCInventors: Andrew Price Pawlak, Eric Ivan Effros

Publication number: 20240092036Abstract: A pipe fusion machine including a track mounted chassis supporting a horizontal turntable for unlimited, reversible rotation relative to the chassis. A boom pivotally attached at a rear end of, and extending forwardly of, the turntable enables manipulation of elevations and distances of the free end of the boom. The free end of the boom is adapted to permit pivotal mounting thereon of a pipe fusion tool such as an indexer configured to articulate and support a pipe-end facer and a pipe-end heater for respective independent orientation into and out of alignment with the ends of pipes to be fused. A carriage supports fixed and sliding jaws adapted to grip the ends of pipes to be fused for relative reciprocal movement during a pipe fusion process. Each of the jaws may include an upper half jaw and lower left and right quarter jaws.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Arthur H.

Patent number: 9613285Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for compressive sensing that enable efficient recovery of features in an input signal based on acquiring a few measurements corresponding to the input signal. One method of compressive sensing includes folding an image to generate first and second folds, and recovering a feature of the image based on the first and second folds without reconstructing the image. One example of a compressive sensing apparatus includes a lens, a focal plane array coupled to the lens and configured to generate first and second folds based on the image, and a decoder configured to receive the first and second folds and to recover a feature of the image without reconstructing the image. The feature may be a local geometric feature or a corner. Compressive sensing methods and apparatuses for determining translation and rotation between two images are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2015Date of Patent: April 4, 2017Assignees: THE CHARLES STARK DRAPER LABORATORY, INC., MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGYInventors: Brian Gardiner, Rishi Gupta, Yaron Rachlin, Christopher C.
