Abstract: Provided herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for providing interactive exploration and analysis of cellular environments represented within MIF images. An embodiment includes a pipeline configured to generate an interactive visualization with selectable icons that represent cells in an MIF image by identifying identifying cells in the MIF image and generating a graph of the MIF image based on coordinates and the properties of the identified cells, with each node in the graph corresponding to the cells as well as neighboring cells. The graph may be transformed into embeddings and generating an interactive visualization of the graph based on the embeddings. Selectable icons in the interactive visualization correspond to nodes in the graph.

Abstract: A medical device for treating a PFO is presented as well as a mechanism for its delivery, repositioning and/or removal. The device includes a wire or cable framework of six shape-memory cables formed into a right side having six loops that support a right side sail and a left side having six loops that support a left side sail. The right side loops and left side loops are connected together via waist members that extend between the right side and left side loops. Each cable is threaded through a through hole of a central post and pass through one of each of four connecting collars that establish the basic shape of the PFO device and retain the cables together to form a flexible and resilient PFO device.

Abstract: A medical device for treating an LAA is presented. The device includes a cap, a bulb and a joint assembly therebetween. The cap is a three layer mesh structure with a retaining hub securing the layers together. A plurality of proximal wire loops extend from the base layer to a proximal post of the joint assembly. The bulb has a plurality of distal wire loops that extend between a terminal post and a distal post of the joint assembly. The joint assembly comprises a first ball joint, a second ball joint and a housing. Each ball joint is retained in the housing independent ball and socket relationships. Each ball joint and post defines a longitudinal axis. The housing defines a housing longitudinal axis. By way of the ball and socket relationship each ball joint longitudinal axis may form an angle of between about 0 to about 35 degrees with the housing longitudinal axis in any direction.

Abstract: A vision testing system is provided that tests the vision of an associated patient. A display of the vision testing unit includes a first surface for displaying a vision test thereon. A processing unit is operatively associated with the display and selectively displays optotypes on the first surface. A monitoring system senses a distance between the associated patient and the display, and operationally interfaces with the processing unit to provide data representative of the distance of the associated patient from the display. A cue may be provided to the associated patient in response to the sensed distance. In addition, ambient lighting conditions may be sensed at the display and brightness of the display altered in response to the ambient light.

Abstract: Authorized access to a digital asset is obtained by associating an authentication tag with a physical object accessible to a user, by configuring the tag with a first dataset comprised of a random distribution of three-dimensional elements and with a second dataset comprised of machine-readable data elements, and by authorizing a mobile device to scan the elements. The first and second datasets together comprise an authentication key that uniquely identifies the object and, in turn, the user. The authentication key is scanned by a device in response to a prompt from the digital asset to obtain scanned key data. Predetermined key data and a device identifier indicative of the authorized device are stored in a database. Access to the digital asset is allowed when the scanned key data matches the stored predetermined key data, and when the device scanning the data is authorized.

Abstract: Systems for emergency exit LED lighting are described herein. The emergency exit lighting systems comprise structures for housing at least one LED light, an LED driver electronically coupled to the LED light(s), a continuous power source, a backup power source, and a test switch. The fixtures, in various configurations, may be mounted to an existing T-grid or to a wall or ceiling. The fixture may be tested remotely.

Abstract: Games and activities including bottles for flipping, caps, accessories, and methods of using the same are disclosed.

Abstract: Unauthorized products are prevented from being sold on online websites. Product identifier keys and private authentication keys are stored in a database of an authentication server. Each identifier key serves as an address for its corresponding authentication key in the database. A product and a security seal are displayed on a webpage served by a website. An identifier key and an authentication key for the displayed product are encoded into the security seal. In response to selecting the security seal, the website extracts the encoded identifier key and authentication keys, and sends them to the database. The authentication server determines whether the displayed product is genuine and authorized when a match is made between the extracted keys and the stored keys.

Abstract: A method of vision testing includes providing a display, presenting a first chart of optotypes wherein each line progressively decreases in size or in contrast of the optotype relative to a background. The method includes having a patient identify and read the optotypes, noting which line of optotypes at which the patient can correctly identify all of the optotypes in the first chart, confirming that the patient has correctly identified all of the optotypes in the line of the first chart, and then presenting a second chart of optotypes wherein each line of the second chart progressively decreases in one of size or in contrast of the optotype relative to a background. The size or contrast of the noted line of optotypes from the first chart that the patient correctly identified is presented as either a first line of optotypes or a second line of optotypes on the second chart.

Abstract: Objects are identified by authentication tags, each configured with an authentication key that includes a first dataset comprised of a random distribution of three-dimensional elements, and with a second dataset comprised of machine-readable data elements. The authentication keys are readable by image capture and/or RFID reading devices, at least one of which is authorized to read at least one of the keys under predetermined conditions. An object is deemed genuine when the device reading a key has been authorized, and when the reading is performed when the conditions have been met.

Abstract: Light-modifying elements of a multi-dimensional barcode are arranged along first and second directions that are orthogonal to each other in a pattern that stores first and second quantities of information stored in the barcode. Some of the elements have different elevations along a third direction that is orthogonal to the first and second directions to store a third quantity of the information. Some of the elements are colored to store a fourth quantity of the information. A surrounding medium at least partially encases at least some of the elements. The surrounding medium has a characteristic that stores a fifth quantity of the information.
