Publication number: 20200204848Abstract: A process for providing relevant video content to members of a communication group. When a triggering event to provide video content to a plurality of members of a communication group is detected, an electronic computing device assigns a reviewer rank to each one of the plurality of members of the communication group based on a user context associated with the respective members. The device then selects a member with the assigned reviewer rank higher than the respectively assigned reviewer ranks of other members and further transmits a notification to the member requesting permission to provide the video content to the members of the communication group. When a response indicating permission is received from the communication device associated with the selected member, the device provides the video content to the members associated with the communication group.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2018Publication date: June 25, 2020Inventors: ERIC JOHNSON, YUJING SU, CHUN WANG, JEFFREY HIRSCH

Patent number: 10646331Abstract: Disclosed herein is a customized ossicular prosthesis suitable for treatment of conductive hearing loss due to ossicular chain defects, and a method and system for manufacturing the same. Medical imaging equipment can detect specifically designated landmarks in normal human middle ear ossicles, including significant anatomic differences in those structures. Those anatomic features are used to generate a customized ossicular prosthesis specifically configured for a particular patient's anatomy using 3D printing techniques and devices.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2018Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: University of Maryland, BaltimoreInventors: Jeffrey Hirsch, David J. Eisenman

Patent number: 7359060Abstract: An optical probe for use in infrared, near infrared, Raman, and other spectrometers includes a probe outer surface with a cavity defined therein. The probe emits light into a sample via emission locations on the probe outer surface, at least one being in the cavity. The light emitted into the sample is then collected at collection locations which include at least two of (a) a reflectance collection location situated on the probe outer surface for collecting diffusely reflected light from any adjacent sample; (b) a transmittance collection location situated in the cavity and receiving light transmitted across the cavity from an emission location situated on an opposite side of the cavity; and (c) a transflectance collection location situated in the cavity and receiving transflected light emitted from an emission location in the cavity, with such light being reflected from a side of the cavity opposite the transflectance collection location.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2005Date of Patent: April 15, 2008Assignee: Thermo Electron Scientific Instruments LLCInventors: Matthew D. Ebersole, Carla S. Draper, Jeffrey Hirsch

Patent number: 7269991Abstract: An apparatus, method, and system for ensuring a more accurate and precise calibration of gas or liquid analyzers using gas emitting permeation tubes for the production of calibration samples. The permeation devices are placed in a temperature-controlled housing to ensure that calibration samples are produced at the optimal temperature for such devices. The housing temperature may be controlled by a semi-conductor heating and cooling device. The apparatus also controls the flow rate of the medium that is mixed with the impurities released from the permeation devices, yielding a more accurate, precise, and reliable calibration. The sample can be conveyed to the calibration device/instrument by hooking the apparatus directly to the calibration device. The invention also contemplates a novel method of calibrating apparatuses using a device kept at the optimal temperature, using a constant flow rate that minimizes variations in the calibrations.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2004Date of Patent: September 18, 2007Assignee: Air Liquide America L.P.Inventors: Jeffrey A. Hirsch, Wallace A. Bruce, Billy G. Gilbert

Patent number: 5567471Abstract: A rugged flexible hollow-fiber waveguide that permits preservation of good transverse spatial coherence of input infrared laser radiation and that transmits substantial power of such radiation, with low attenuation. The present invention preferably comprises a small-diameter thin-wall silica-glass tube; a protective coating on the outer surface of the tube; a sufficient reflective layer on the inner surface of the tube; and a thickness, optimal for the wavelength(s) of interest, of dielectric on the exposed surface of the reflective layer. The fiber is manufactured with processes that maintain the smoothness of the bore.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 1995Date of Patent: October 22, 1996Assignee: Rutgers, The State University of New JerseyInventors: James A. Harrington, Todd C. Abel, Jeffrey Hirsch
