  • Publication number: 20260047897
    Abstract: Any and all nano-, micro-, or small-scale robots, devices, machines, etc. in general that may or can be used inside any living organism, such as the human body or animals, to specifically administer supercritical fluids of any type and any dose size, especially supercritical water, to destroy, eliminate, etc. harmful or undesired matter or substances, including but not limited to per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances, small-scale synthetic chemicals in general, and plastics such as micro-and nanoplastics. Any nano-and micro-sizes refer to all nanometers and all micrometers. Small-scale increases the size to millimeters where some of these said devices may operate but less likely so, especially in relation to micrometers and nanometers. In current technology, many of these devices operate in the tens of micrometers, such as a 20-micrometer robot for biotechnology and engineering. A living organism may be living anywhere or everywhere.

  • Patent number: 12540346
    Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure describe a test strip that may include a sample input, assay circuitry, signaling circuitry, impedance circuitry, and/or energy harvesting circuitry. The sample input may be configured to receive a sample, such as a fluid sample. The assay circuitry of the test strip may be configured to perform an assay on at least a portion of the fluid sample. The signaling circuitry of the test strip may be configured to provide a modulated signal based on an output of the assay. The impedance circuitry of the test strip may be configured to present impedance changes to a touchscreen of an electronic device in accordance with the modulated signal. The test strip can then communicate data of the output of the assay (e.g., test results) to the electronic device using the touchscreen of the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 12513793
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for converting acoustic energy into a quantum photonics source by creating single bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL). A sonoluminescence device may include a container that mimics a blackbody box configured to control the emission of light generated within the container. The sonoluminescence device generates a single bubble within a liquid of the container to initiate sonoluminescence. The sonoluminescence device can control the time between SBSL pulses while maintaining regular time intervals and the integrity of the bubble trapped within the container. These novel methods and all combinations of them are used to create a single photon source and a superradiant light source.

  • Publication number: 20220240861
    Abstract: Examples of systems and methods for classifying SpO2 levels using smartphones are described. A wideband light source (e.g., a flash) may be used to illuminate a finger. A wideband imaging sensor (e.g., a camera) may be used to capture images of the illuminated finger. The smartphone may apply per-color channel gain adjustments to the captured images. The adjusted pixel data may be used as the basis of input to a classifier (e.g., a deep learning model). The classifier may be trained on ground truth data, such as from an induced hypoxia study. The classifier may output an SpO2 level blood in the finger.

  • Patent number: 9690267
    Abstract: A power plant controller (36) is described. The power plant controller (36) controls a power generation system (10) having one or more power generators (12) and an energy storage system (22), and provides a utility grid or transmission system operator with the capability to select the droop response provided by the power generation system. Accordingly, an operator can request a specific generator droop response in order to provide appropriate frequency and grid control services. The power plant controller (36) operates in real time determining one or more power characteristics of the power generation system (10). Based on these characteristics and an indication of a future predicted power output for the power generation system, the power plant controller can take the necessary steps to ensure that the power generation system is capable of responding with the selected droop response, or can advise the operator that a different droop is preferred.

  • Patent number: 9466034
    Abstract: Embodiments for determining an optimal configuration for a renewable energy power plant are provided. The power plant, which may be a virtual power plant, includes one or more generator devices and one or more energy storage devices that may be operated to undertake one or more operating applications. Data indicative of the power output of the power plant and the voltage level at the energy storage system connection point is received as an input. Using this data, combinations of energy storage devices and operating applications stored on a database are processed and, for each energy storage and operating application pair, a value indicative of the profitability of undertaking the operating application is determined. These values are used to rank the combinations of energy storage devices and operating applications according to their profitability, which in turn is used to select the most efficient or profitable application/energy storage pair.

  • Patent number: 8849597
    Abstract: Method, system, and computer program product for estimating a consumed battery life of a battery used in a wind energy application. An energy storage system for use with a wind farm includes a rechargeable battery configured to be selectively charged by wind turbines or the power grid and configured to be selectively discharged to a power grid. One or more remaining battery life algorithms are used to compute a consumed battery life for the battery. A battery life curve characteristic of the battery and a state of charge profile are used as inputs to each remaining battery life algorithm.

  • Patent number: 8618694
    Abstract: System, method, and computer program product for dampening oscillations of the electrical power on a power grid. The system includes a wind park with multiple wind turbines. Each wind turbine includes a rotor, a generator operatively coupled with the rotor for generating electrical power, and an inverter coupling the generator with the power grid to output the electrical power to the power grid. A controller is configured to generate a first control signal to cause the inverter of the first wind turbine to modulate the electrical power output by the first wind turbine for dampening oscillations of one frequency in electrical power on the power grid and to generate a second control signal to cause the inverter of the second wind turbine to modulate the electrical power output by the second wind turbine for dampening oscillations of a different frequency in the electrical power on the power grid.
