Abstract: A signal generator is configured to generate a signal to be converted into a biocompatible electromagnetic signal. A coil assembly is configured to receive the signal, and to produce a biocompatible electromagnetic frequency. A magnet assembly is positioned in relation to the coil assembly to augment the range of transmission of the biocompatible electromagnetic field (signal) in the environment. In this manner, the biocompatible electromagnetic signal is broadcast into the environment of a living organism, including a human, and imparts at least some beneficial influence to the living organism.

Abstract: Automatically detecting a wireless data logger with a multi-network wireless mobile gateway via low energy radio network-based proximity detection enables automatically transferring data logger sensed data that includes a portion of previously logged data from the wireless data logger via the low energy network to the multi-network mobile wireless gateway for further transfer from the multi-network wireless mobile gateway to a host via a second network.

Abstract: A device for transporting a substrate (5) into a working area (2, 3, 22) which can be temporarily separated in a vacuum-tight manner, and a corresponding method. A transport element (4) transports a substrate (5) in the plane (XY) to a defined working area (2, 3, 22) of a chamber (1). The transport element (4) has a deflectable sealing frame (6) which can be moved in a Z-direction perpendicular with respect to the XY-plane. The sealing frame (6) has two opposing sealing surfaces (10, 11) in the Z-direction. By pressing a closure element (16, 21, 24) against a first sealing surface (10, 11) and thus pressing the second sealing surface (11, 10) against a chamber wall (32, 31), the space of the working area (2, 3, 22) of the chamber (1) can be sealed.
