Patent number: 12229947Abstract: An optical coherence tomography (OCT) unit provides a mechanism/method for automatic artery and vein identification. The method may be embodied by specialized algorithm or by a machine learning model, such as a support vector machine or neural network. The present method may identify a vascular configuration that forms a vortex structure in the deep capillary plexus (DCP) of an OCT-based (e.g., OCTA) image of a retina. The identified vortex may then be designated a vein, and other vascular structures from other plexuses, such as from the superficial vascular plexus (SVP), that connect to the identified vortex structure are likewise designated veins. Additional criteria, some based on the vein designations, may be used to identify arteries.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2020Date of Patent: February 18, 2025Assignee: Carl Zeiss Meditec Inc.Inventors: Kenneth Bailey Freund, Xiaoyu Xu, Mary K.

Publication number: 20080091529Abstract: Media is received over a channel and played on a media-displaying screen. An advertising system produces Windows that represent the advertising, which preferably take up 5% of the area of the screen or less. These Windows are displayed over the media, but in locations that continuously move. The Windows are displayed only for a limited time, and the user can click on them during the time they are displayed. After clicking on them, a coupon code is displayed which enables a discount on a product.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2007Publication date: April 17, 2008Inventors: Kenneth Bailey, Christopher Carmichael

Publication number: 20080082360Abstract: Inventory control system which automatically monitors weights of items both before and after dispensing. The difference in weight is used to determine an amount of product that has been dispensed. The amount of product that has been dispensed as compared with the amount of money that the employee takes in for dispensing the product. This can be used to determine employee theft. Embodiments can use various techniques to determine who are the dishonest employees.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2007Publication date: April 3, 2008Applicant: CLEAR-VIEW-TECHNOLOGIES, INCInventors: Kenneth Bailey, Paul Mula

Publication number: 20060139000Abstract: A wrist worn battery charging system is disclosed which may be utilized to power or charge the batteries of portable devices, such as wrist worn PDA's, wrist worn Cell-Phones, wrist worn PC's, wrist worn walkie-talkies, wrist worn MP3 players, or other electronic devices which are battery powered and worn on the body of the user. The battery charger operates by turning the motion of the user's arm into electrical energy by the action of a miniature D.C. generator. The output voltage may be used to trickle charge a battery, or supply energy necessary to sustain power for the operation of a number of portable devices. The system is sealed and encapsulated to prolong its' useful life and disguise its' appearance.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2005Publication date: June 29, 2006Inventors: Kenneth Bailey, Fernando Barrera, Fernando Barrera

Publication number: 20060110010Abstract: A body scanning measurement, typing and profiling apparatus and method utilizing microwave energy. Microwaves are used to measure the size and shape of an individual. An array of miniaturized transmitting antennas direct RF energy to a similarly sized array of receiving antennas. Microwaves are directed toward an object, such as a human being, to be measured and the unabsorbed energy of the microwaves transmitted is measured and converted to a signal representative of the size and shape of the object being measured. A computer processor generates vital body measurements and stores such measurements for future use.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2005Publication date: May 25, 2006Inventors: Kenneth Bailey, Fernando Barrera

Publication number: 20060104489Abstract: Individual information about a person's body part is obtained. The body part is defined to have reference points. A geometrical part is extended between those reference points, and characteristics of the geometrical part as so extended are determined. These characteristics are used as minutae to compare against other body parts.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2005Publication date: May 18, 2006Inventors: Kenneth Bailey, Fernando Barrera

Publication number: 20050264303Abstract: A person monitoring system that may determine personal characteristics and compare them to other characteristics without necessarily recognizing a specific individual corresponding to those characteristics. An embodiment may use a first array of focused microwave transmitting antennas driven by a microwave transmitting electronics, producing microwave signals for the first array. A second array of focused microwave receiving antennas may have each antenna of said second array being focused and pointed to receive a microwave transmission from a specific antenna of the first array. A controller determines pixels of the sillouette of the monitored subject, as pixels from the microwave antennas. Parameters of human body shape are determined, and used as a profile that can be monitored.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2005Publication date: December 1, 2005Inventors: Kenneth Bailey, Fernando Barrera

Patent number: 6581252Abstract: A plastic grille is attached to vehicle fenders by fasteners having a first connector section particularly shaped to snappingly engage a hole in the grille, and having an oppositely-facing second connector section particularly shaped to snappingly engage a hole in the fenders. The first and second connector sections are shaped for optimal low insertion force, yet high retention force. The first and second connectors have flexible arms that are oriented 90 degrees apart, permitting the connectors to slip in perpendicular directions in their respective receiving holes, thus providing improved tolerance and adjustability during installation. A method of assembly includes pre-attaching the fastener to the plastic component, and then attaching them as a unit to the metal component.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2001Date of Patent: June 24, 2003Assignee: Lacks Enterprises, Inc.Inventors: Joseph M.

Patent number: 3954275Abstract: A fluid pressure operated chuck is provided with a stationary slip ring mounted on an axially rotatable chuck body, and a resilient sealing ring is located in substantially opposed grooves in the slip ring and mounted therein by temporary deformation of the resilient sealing ring during fitting, in the absence of fluid pressure. The sealing ring may be of a squat "T" section with the flanges at the head of the T providing marginal edge parts for location in the opposed grooves and the broad base face of the stem of the T forming a sealing contact face. Valve means are also provided in the chuck body to control the fluid pressure which latter acts on an axially displaceable piston to operate the jaws of the chuck.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 1973Date of Patent: May 4, 1976Assignee: Pratt Burnerd International LimitedInventor: Kenneth Bailey Philip Pickles
