  • Patent number: 5892862
    Abstract: A fiber optic switching system which includes an optical switch having a movable actuator and a light fiber coupled to the actuator which terminates at an end surface thereof for conducting light from a light source to the optical switch mechanism. A flexible reflective film whose reflectivity is conditioned to provide at least two different reflective surfaces is positioned such that an end surface of the actuator abuts the film throughout its movement from one position to another. A detector detects light reflected from the film. The actuator is movable so as to direct light from the light fiber from the one reflective surface of the film to another and the detector detects light reflected from the film so as to determine which reflective surface of the film from which light has been reflected.

  • Patent number: 5487756
    Abstract: An implantable cuff having an improved closure is disclosed. The closure has a set of small interdigitated tubes lying along the edges of a longitudinal slit opening in the cuff. A rod-like locking member is inserted through the interdigitated tubes to lock the cuff closed. A flexible flap attached to the inside of the cuff electrically and mechanically isolates the interior of the cuff from the exterior. The cuff has particular application as a nerve cuff for recording electrical nerve activity and for electrically stimulating nerves.
