Abstract: Described is a lateral flow high throughput assay device analyzer for preparing and analyzing a plurality of lateral flow assay samples. The analyzer comprises a cartridge stage for supporting an assay cartridge, an elevation adjustment mechanism, and a translation adjustment mechanism for aligning the cartridge stage and assay cartridge relative to a vertical support structure, fluid metering device, and detection device for high throughput lateral flow assay analysis.

Abstract: This specification relates to an apparatus which stores a machine-learned model including a first neural network block including multiple convolutional neural network layers, a second neural network block including at least one dilated convolutional neural network layer, and a linear transformation block. The apparatus is configured to receive input data representing in-phase and quadrature signals of an input signal that is to be amplified by a power amplifier, to process the received input data using the first neural network block of the machine learned model to generate a first neural network block output, to process the received input data using the second neural network block of the machine learned model to generate a second neural network block output, and to combine, using the linear transformation block, the first neural network block output and the second neural network block output to generate a pre-distorted signal for amplification by the power amplifier.

Abstract: A flow assay cartridge for housing and protecting a flow assay membrane or lateral flow test strip which can be vertically stacked and is adapted for high-throughput automated lateral flow assay testing and analysis. The flow assay cartridge comprises a base and lid for receiving the flow assay membrane, and top and bottom engagement features such that two or more flow assay cartridges can be releasably adjoined in a vertical orientation such that they can be easily handled by an automated assay apparatus.

Abstract: An islanding detection apparatus minimizes a reduction in power quality and detects islanding when distributed generations are operated in parallel. Also, another islanding detection apparatus for parallel distributed generations synchronizes parallel distributed generations by periodically applying a reactive current at a half cycle. Further, another islanding detection apparatus for parallel distributed generations easily synchronizes parallel distributed generations even when inverters installed in the respective distributed generations are fabricated through different makers.

Abstract: A vibration detector (100) is disclosed herein. In a first embodiment, the vibration detector (100) includes a support member (300, 302) arranged to vibrate, and a sensor (207) arranged to detect a vibration frequency of the support member (300, 302). The vibration frequency to be detected is dependent on the support member's mechanical structure, in which the support member's mechanical structure is mechanically reconfigurable to vary the vibration frequency to be detected by the sensor (207).
