Publication number: 20220230761Abstract: A system, method, diagnostic and container delivery system for manipulating a target, by manipulating with the quantum coherence of the target. The method includes identifying intrinsic parameters of the target and determining target-tuned design factors based at least partially on the intrinsic parameters. Target-tuned electrons and respective associate fields are generated based in part on the target-tuned design factor. The target-tuned electrons are transformed the from an unquantized state into target-tuned artificial atoms with quantized energy levels. The method may include preparing a container to carry the unquantized target-tuned electrons, the container being composed of superconductor quantum dots. The unquantized target-tuned electrons are transferred to the container to form the target-tuned artificial atoms having quantized target-tuned electrons, which may be delivered to the target as a manipulating agent.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 18, 2022Publication date: July 21, 2022Applicant: SpinQ Biophysics, Inc.Inventors: Marc Harris, Deni Hogan

The method includes identifying intrinsic parameters of the target and determining target-tuned design factors based at least partially on the intrinsic parameters. Target-tuned electrons and fields are generated based in part on the target-tuned design factor. The target-tuned electrons and fields are defined by discrete quantized energy levels. The method may include preparing a container to carry the unquantized target-tuned electrons, the container being composed of superconductor quantum dots. The unquantized target-tuned electrons are transferred to the container to form target-tuned artificial atoms having quantized target-tuned electrons, which may be delivered to the target as a manipulating agent. Alternatively, the unquantized target-tuned electrons may be delivered directly to the subject.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2021Publication date: July 21, 2022Applicant: SpinQ Biophysics, Inc.Inventors: Marc Harris, Deni Hogan

Patent number: 8200784Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein provide a system and method for transferring data between an unstructured data source and a structured destination. In one embodiment, graphical representations of a unstructured data source and a structured destination are presented to a user via a graphical user interface of a computer. Using the graphical user interface, the user can draw lines between the graphical representations to indicate how data from the unstructured data source should be associated with and transferred to the structured destination. The graphical representation of the unstructured data source may be generated using data extracted from a web based document. This data extraction can be done recursively and at least partially in parallel with retrieving files associated with hyperlinks within the web based document.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2009Date of Patent: June 12, 2012Assignee: Open Text S.A.Inventors: Andrew Groh, Rob Surratt, Marc Harris, Mikhail Gurevich
