Patent number: 11346803Abstract: A test strip and analytical apparatus have pin connections permitting the definition of geographic regions or of particular customers. A test strip made for use in a particular region or for a particular customer will have pin connections matching features of the apparatus made for use in that region or by that customer. Insertion of the strip into the apparatus does not merely turn on the apparatus, but provides the regional or customer coding. Analog switches within the apparatus allow coding of a larger number of distinct regions or customers than would otherwise be possible, all without degrading the quality of the measurements made of the fluid being tested. Conductive paths in the strips permit testing the strips during manufacture so as to detect quality lapses regarding the printing or deposition of the paths.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2017Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Assignee: AgaMatrix, Inc.Inventors: Steven Diamond, Martin Forest, Baoguo Wei, Ian Harding, Sridhar Iyengar

Patent number: 10520458Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for creating test strips that may be identified based on differences in electrical conduction or resistance between contact point on the test strip. This is achieved by creating a base test strip with contact points that may be connected to other contact points by an electrical connection. These base test strips may be modified to create a difference in electrical conductivity between contact points, or a contact point may be eliminated. This modification can be used to distinguish different types of test strips based on electrical signature. Additionally, the base test strip may be created such that multiple modifications are possible to distinguish numerous characteristics of test strips.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2016Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: AgaMatrix, Inc.Inventors: Charles Boiteau, Martin Forest, Sridhar Iyengar, Baoguo Wei

Patent number: 10488359Abstract: A test meter for receiving a test strip comprises: (a) a housing; (b) electronic circuitry disposed within the housing and (c) a strip port connector connected to the electronic circuitry and extending to an opening in the housing, said strip port connector connecting the electronic circuitry with a received test strip. The strip port connector contains a pair of top and bottom contacts, said top and bottom contacts having a proximal end and a distal end and a central contact portion, the top and bottom contacts of the pair are transversely aligned with one another; and the distal ends of the top and bottom contacts are separated or separable from one another by insertion of a test strip between the opposed contacts. The contacts and the meter are adapted to permit detection of faulty contacts and/or coding associated with an inserted test strip.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2015Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: AgaMatrix, Inc.Inventors: Sridhar Iyengar, Charles Boiteau, Martin Forest, Colin Butters

Publication number: 20180211503Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus are provided for intelligent lighting management with security applications. In some embodiments, the usage of at least one illumination device may be monitored. The illumination device may be a light bulb used in a home. Usage data for the illumination device may be recorded and used to generate a lighting schedule. The lighting schedule may be replayed to simulate occupancy, for example, to deter intruders.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2015Publication date: July 26, 2018Applicant: BEON HOME INCInventors: Arvind S. Baliga, Martin FOREST, Michael DENNINGER, Alexei E. ERCHAK
