Abstract: A pen cap for a medication delivery pen includes a piston-style detector mechanism. The piston-style detector mechanism includes at least an inner shell having first open end through which the medication delivery pen can be inserted, a second end opposite the first end, a sidewall defined by an outer surface and an opposing inner surface, and a passageway extending from the outer surface to the inner surface. The sidewall extends between the first end and the second end thereby defining a pen-receiving cavity there between. The piston-style detector mechanism further includes at least one switch and a translatable shaft at least partially disposed in the passage. The translatable shaft includes a body that extends at least from a pen-interfacing portion in the pen-receiving cavity to a switch-interfacing portion thereof.

The instrument includes an energy delivery structure comprising a flexible dielectric substrate having a first electrode and an second electrode formed on one of the pair of jaws, wherein the first electrode and the second electrode are arranged to emit microwave energy. The electrosurgical apparatus may also comprise a handpiece that combines rotation control of an electrosurgical instrument with both power delivery and end effector actuation (e.g. jaw closure, blade retraction or the like).

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing an electronic cooling apparatus comprising a chassis having an internal space that is sized/shaped to receive/structurally support circuit card(s). The internal space defined by sidewalls with a channel formed therein in which a coolant is disposed. The coolant is in thermal communication with the circuit card(s) via the sidewall(s) when the circuit card(s) is(are) disposed in the chassis. A refrigerant-based cooling system is disposed in the chassis and comprises an evaporator having inlet/outlet ports coupled to the channel of the chassis to define a first closed-loop channel for the coolant within the chassis. The evaporator facilitates heat transfer from the coolant to a refrigerant flowing through a second closed-loop channel of the chassis at least partially defined by the evaporator. A pump is disposed in the chassis and configured to cause the coolant to flow through the first closed-loop channel.

Abstract: An apparatus for rapidly cooking food includes a housing having a reservoir, a heating element, a binary distributor, and a container. In a method of using the apparatus for rapidly cooking food, food is placed into the container and water is poured into the reservoir. The heating element heats the water in the reservoir, and the resulting steam travels into the binary distributor. Pressurized steam then exits the binary distributor to uniformally cook the top of the food. Condensed steam gathers at the bottom of the container and is kept at a temperature capable of cooking the food. In such a way, food in the container is rapidly cooked. In one embodiment, the food to be cooked is a single serving of ramen brick style noodles.

Abstract: Digitization of a 3-D object is provided by surrounding the object with flowable probes whose positions may be accurately determined. By identifying at least those flowable probes adjacent to the outer surface of the object, a locus of points on the outer surface of the object may be determined from which the object shape may be defined in a model.

Abstract: A process flow management solution that is designed to facilitate standardized integration between applications in a point of sale environment in order to manage the ‘checkout’ experience. This is made possible via APIs that allows applications to initiate flows and for other applications to be called at any point in those flows to read and augment relevant data.

Abstract: A computer-implemented apparatus for performing a genotoxicity assessment in respect of a population of labelled cells pre-treated with, or exposed to, one or more specified substances, conditions and/or environments. The apparatus comprises a imaging flow cytometry system for capturing image files representative of said cell population, wherein each image file is representative of a single cell of said population, a cell-image analysis module configured to receive said image files and generate, in respect of each one thereof, respective cytological profiles; and a machine learning module configured to receive said cytological profiles and, in respect of each of a plurality thereof obtain therefrom one or more characteristics and insert their respective value(s) into a predetermined algorithm to generate a classifier and compare said generated classifier with a predetermined rule to output a score for the respective cell.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and media are provided for identifying languages in multilingual text. A document is decoded into a universal representative coding for easier tag manipulation, then broken into plain-text content sections. The sections are identified and assigned a weight, wherein more informative sections are given a higher weight and less informative sections are given a lesser weight. A language likelihood score is determined for each word, phrase, or character n-gram in a section. The language likelihood scores within a section are combined for each language. The combined section scores are then summed together to obtain a total document score for each language. This results in a document score for each language, which can be ranked to determine the primary language for the document.

Abstract: Improved fluid delivery devices and systems are disclosed, including drug delivery devices and systems, and methods that permit, inter alia, the rapid sequential delivery of two or more fluids to a single external fluid flow or intravenous line.
