Abstract: System and method for capturing data from third-party systems in a non-intrusive way and using such data for starting a process and/or analytic purposes. The system and method work with external add-on or aftermarket products working in conjunction with electronic gaming machines in particular and third-party devices in general. For example, an add-on external jackpot system may be triggered each time an underlying electronic gaming machine is played. Accordingly, the system and method employ microdots, receivers, and computing devices configured and positioned to alert the add-on external jackpot system of each play of the underlying gaming machine. Micro optical fibers integrated into a film along with a charge coupled device may also be used. The system and method are non-intrusive.

Abstract: The invention relates to the processing of a biological sample for histological analysis. In particular, it relates to a rapid automated processing system that can be operated with continuous throughput and that eliminates the use of toxic solvents such as xylene. Provided is a method for processing a biological sample for histological analysis, comprising contacting the sample with a composition comprising a supercritical or near supercritical fluid followed by impregnating the sample under a pressure of more than 1 bar with an embedding medium, preferably paraffin.
