  • Patent number: 7501096
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a smart pipette for bio-cell manipulation which can freely change orientation of a bio-cell subject to the manipulation by using mechanical friction and applying instantaneous impact when penetrating the subject bio-cell while receiving real-time feedback of force/torque information of the bio-cell. Further, the present invention relates to a bio-cell manipulation method and system using a smart pipette, through which a bio-cell may be manipulated upon the application of the force/torque information generated during the cell manipulation to the smart pipette control. According to the present invention, injection position can be recognized precisely and conveniently regardless of the proficiency of the manipulating person. Thus, the bio-cell manipulation may be automated. Further, the smart pipette quantifies force/torque information feed-backed through the sensor unit and compares it with data acquired in advance through experiments on the same bio-cell.

  • Patent number: 7307544
    Abstract: A method for communication between inside and outside of a transmission medium using the transmission medium as a communication line, includes the steps of: receiving an electric signal having information related to a transmission medium from a plurality of sensors inside the transmission medium; conducting the electric signal to the transmission medium; and sensing the electric signal flowing to the outside of the transmission medium. Because a modulating unit is not necessary, a power consumption is minimized. In addition, since an electric signal is directly conducted to a medium, it is not necessary to use an antenna, and thus, degradation of a reception rate according to a directional property of the antenna can be prevented. Moreover, since the electric signal is directly generated in the medium and the medium is directly used as an electric conductor, the overall size of a transmitter is reduced.
