  • Patent number: 11918292
    Abstract: A fixation apparatus may be attached to first and second anatomical structure segments. Images of the fixation apparatus and the attached anatomical structure segments may then be captured. In some examples, the images need not necessarily be orthogonal with respect to one another. Configuration information associated with the fixation apparatus may then be received. Additionally, first image information may be received, for example including indications of one or more locations, within the images, of at least part of one or more elements of the fixation apparatus. Additionally, second image information may be received, for example including indications of one or more locations, within the images, of at least part of the first and the second anatomical structure segments. Manipulations to the fixation apparatus for correction of the anatomical structure deformity may then be determined, and indications of the determined manipulations may then be provided to one or more users.

  • Publication number: 20170256851
    Abstract: An on board diagnostic (OBD) device having a radio modem is provided. An antenna of the radio modem is connected to a printed circuit board (PCB) housed within a plastic housing, where the PCB has a ground plane which is extended by a conductive extension. The conductive extension lengthens an effective length of a counterpoise of the antenna without necessitating an increase in size of the OBD device/plastic housing, resulting in maintaining a small form factor for the OBD device, while increasing antenna efficiency and/or bandwidth.

  • Publication number: 20170140093
    Abstract: Embodiments describe computer systems and computer programs for implementing BioCAD methods comprising one or more data models and one or more BioCAD tools, wherein the BioCAD tools enable users to design or refactor a biomolecule or to conduct a biological experiment in silico by user input of one or more components selected by the user from a database populated with information on components and scientific data of existing biomolecules and experiments. Data models of the programs are operable to manage development of the new biomolecule or experiment based on information in the databases. Computer programs also provide an output with information that enables the users to determine in silico if the newly designed or refactored molecule or biological experiment is satisfactory or not for its intended purpose in vitro and also provides the user the capability to re-design the biomolecule or experiment till it is satisfactory.
