  • Patent number: 8360956
    Abstract: A therapeutic prosthetic device for women or men configured to transmit tactile sensations through a stimulation material to the surface of a sex organ such as the vagina or penis. The therapeutic prosthetic device can include sensors and stimulators on the outer surface and inner surface and a controller. Sensors for detecting state, sensation or movement can be disposed within, on, or separate from the device and can transmit signals electrically or wirelessly to a microprocessor, which is programmed to generate stimulation sensations in response to signals from the sensors, stimulation materials, or controllers that are transmitted to the stimulation material. In one embodiment the therapeutic prosthetic device is a therapeutic condom.

  • Patent number: 7527589
    Abstract: A male prosthetic device configured to be worn on a flaccid, partially-erect or erect penis which transmits tactile sensations through a stimulation material to the surface of the penis. The device includes a prosthesis with an outer surface and in inner chamber, a microprocessor, one or more sensors and one or more stimulation materials. The outer surface is configured to appear as a penis or other elongate body with hard or soft materials, with optional stimulation materials and sensors. The inner cavity is lined with stimulation material configured to contact the surface of the penis. Sensors for detecting sensation or direction can be disposed within, on, or separate from the device transmit signals electrically or wirelessly to the microprocessor, which is programmed to generate stimulation sensations in response to signals from the sensors, stimulation materials, or controllers that are transmitted to the stimulation material.

  • Publication number: 20040253360
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a frozen beverage having a combination of a drug and a gelling agent. The combination is generally maintained at a temperature of 120 degrees F. for at least one minute before completing the remaining steps. In a preferred embodiment, the frozen beverage is hard frozen in the form of a pop and contains ethyl alcohol as the drug and pectin as the gelling agent.

  • Publication number: 20040226082
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising: a member having an external surface and a channel extending into the member from a slit in the external surface; wherein the channel has opaque sides adjoining the external surface of the member; the channel width increases and subsequently decreases as the channel extends into the member; and the channel is or contains an optical wave guide. In some instances the apparatus is a toilet comprising an RLS with the toilet seat comprising a side emitting optical fiber. In other instances the apparatus is a toilet lid comprising a graphic image illuminated by at least one optical fiber.

  • Publication number: 20040228127
    Abstract: Cluster LEDs such as RGB cluster LEDs are formed by housing discrete LEDs within a single lens housing and coupling the LEDs together and to a plug through the use of an interconnect. In some instances the discrete LEDs are directed toward a common point and the lens housings is used to mix the light of the individual LEDs and to set the viewing angle of the cluster LED.

  • Publication number: 20040228144
    Abstract: Remote source lighting methods and apparatus are provided that may be used individually or in any combination, preferably with LED illuminators used with side emitting optical fibers. In some instances, illuminators comprising multiple LEDs pointing in different directions as described herein are used as remote light sources. In some instances, remote lighting apparatus are used to illuminate all or portions of vehicles, building members, building materials, articles of clothing, and/or pieces of furniture. In some instances, remote lighting apparatus are used to illuminate apparatus that include but are not necessarily limited to wheelchairs, golf carts, baby carriages, bicycles, motorcycles, automobiles, trucks, vans, sport utility vehicles, tanks, submarines, shoes, jackets, vests, hats, helmets, baby cribs, floors, walls, ceilings, countertops, tiles and wood.

  • Publication number: 20040012979
    Abstract: A light transmitting cable provides a flexible and highly efficient conductor for moving light energy with low loss. One end of the conductor is enabled for efficiently accepting the light energy. A sheath is tight fitted around the cable for protection against abrasion. A plurality of spaced apart light emitters are formed integrally with the cable and are enabled for directing portions of the light energy laterally from the cable. The light emitters may be caps or other plugs made of light transmissive material, or may be merely apertures in the sheath that are filled with an optical resin. The cable may be used with plural LED light emitters of different wavelength light output to provide color changes in the emitted light.
