Abstract: An extendable roller paint applicator device for extending the roller to inaccessible surfaces includes a hand grip. The hand grip has a painting surface and an extension surface. A stem is positioned upon the painting surface of the hand grip. The stem has a distal end and a proximal end relative to the hand grip. Furthermore, the distal end of the stem has a bend. A roller enwraps the bend of the stem and is coupled to the bend of the stem by a pivot. The pivot rotates the roller when pushed against a surface. A brush is positioned around the roller. Additionally, an extender is positioned upon the extension surface of the hand grip. The extender increases a length of the hand grip relative to the roller.

Abstract: Ruggedized generators can operate using both medium and heavy fuels and output at least 5 kWe of power, yet are quiet, compact in size, and reliable.

Abstract: Compact and quiet opposed piston engines (OPEs) are provided. Though compact and quiet, the OPEs provide substantial mechanical shaft power that is required for a range of applications. The inventive OPEs may have a plurality of size displacements.

Abstract: A combined heating and power system is configured to generate energy as well capture a large percentage of energy that would otherwise be lost using components, including heat transfer components, embedded within a vessel to transfer energy in the form of heat to liquid within the vessel.

Abstract: A combined heat and power system generates energy and efficiently captures a percentage of such energy that would otherwise be lost to, among other things, control the temperature and humidity of a house or dwelling.

Abstract: A valve with an opening is driven by an electric motor to rotate around the cylinder of an opposed piston engine such that the opening separately matches an intake and exhaust opening on the cylinder to allow fuel to enter the combustion chamber of the engine and allow exhaust to be expelled. The intake and exhaust cylinder openings may be separated from each other by approximately sixty degrees of the outside of the cylinder.

Abstract: Systems, platforms, methods and media for providing genomic services are disclosed. In one example, a genomic services platform comprises a network interface through which are received genomic sequence reads derived from a biological sample obtained from a user The platform also includes a bioinformatics processing pipeline including a read alignment module configured to generate observed sequence data by aligning the sequence reads relative to a reference sequence, a variant calling module operative to identify observed variants in the observed sequence data, and a variant refinement module for producing a set of refined variants associated with the user. A variant imputation module produces a set of imputed variants associated with the user, and a variant storage module disposed to receive a query from network infrastructure of a partner application provider and to provide selected ones of the refined or imputed variants in response to the query.

Abstract: An acute ischemia detection device comprises a 12-lead electrocardiograph (ECG) device (12), an electronic data processing device (12), and a display component (22). The electronic data processing device applies 12-lead ECG to vessel-specific lead (VSL) transforms (50) to 12-lead ECG data acquired by the 12-lead ECG device to generate VSL lead data (e.g., LAD, LCX, and RCA vessel-specific lead data), determines ST values for the VSL lead data, and decides whether the 12-lead ECG data acquired by the 12-lead ECG device indicates acute ischemia by comparing the ST values for the VSL lead data with VSL lead ST thresholds (60). The display component may display an acute ischemia alarm or warning if the decision is the 12-lead ECG data acquired by the 12-lead ECG device indicates acute ischemia, and/or may display the generated VSL lead ECG traces.

Abstract: Systems, platforms, methods and media for providing genomic services axe disclosed. In one example, a system for providing genomic services comprises genomic sequencing equipment configured to generate sequence reads based upon a biological sample obtained from a user, store the sequence reads in a FASTQ storage file, and communicate the FASTQ file electronically to a recipient. The system also includes a genomic services platform which includes a network interface through which the sequence reads are received, and a bioinformatics processing pipeline. The bioinformatics processing pipeline includes a read alignment module configured to generate observed sequence data, and a variant calling module is operative to identify observed variants in the observed sequence data. A variant storage module is disposed to receive a query from network infrastructure of a partner application provider and to provide selected ones of refined variants in response to a query.
