Abstract: According to an example, a microfluidic apparatus may include a fluid slot and a foyer that is in fluid communication with the fluid slot via a channel having a relatively smaller width than the foyer. The microfluidic apparatus may also include an electrical sensor to measure a change in an electrical field caused by a particle of interest in a fluid passing through the channel from the fluid slot to the foyer, an actuator to apply pressure onto fluid contained in the foyer, and a controller to receive the measured change in the electrical field from the electrical sensor, determine, from the received change in the electrical field, an electrical signature of the particle of interest, and control the actuator to control movement of the particle of interest based upon the determined electrical signature of the particle of interest.

Abstract: A microfluidic coagulation analysis method includes introducing a fluid sample into a measurement device including a pinch point that includes a microfluidic channel of substantially consistent width and height connecting a slot and a chamber. The at least one pinch point permits passage of the fluid sample from the slot to the chamber. The method further includes measuring, with a sensor in or near the pinch point, transits of individual cells in the sample passing through the at least one pinch point, and computing, at least in part with a processor, at least one metric indicative of a time period during which the flow of the sample transitions from substantially fluid flow to substantial cessation of flow.

Abstract: A method and apparatus to select from an image (30) of a first sample (28), at least one region (44) digitally captured at a first resolution based upon how a counterfeit identification performance attribute of each region (44) digitally captured at the first resolution correlate to the counterfeit identification performance attribute of the region (44) digitally captured at a second resolution higher than the first resolution. The selected region (44) is used to determine whether the image (30) on a second sample is a counterfeit.

Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide methods for selecting a frame from a set of frames. One example method includes obtaining a set of frames and, for each frame from the set of frames, determining whether frame meets a quality condition. The example method further includes assigning a quality score for each frame from the set of frames, and selecting a frame from the set of frames, where the selected frame has a higher quality score than other frames from the set of frames.

Abstract: Individual cylinder output deviations from a normal operating engine cylinder are detected via an analysis of crank shaft speed fluctuations. In the detection phase, the engine is operated at a steady state low idle condition, and engine speed data is collected over a plurality of engine cycles. This data is then averaged, filtered and compared to expected engine speed data. A substantial deviation from the expected speed data in the region of crank shaft angles associated with an individual cylinder during its power stroke adjacent its top dead center position indicates a power level deviation in that cylinder. The magnitude of the power level deviation can then be assessed through a similar procedure where engine speed data is collected, averaged, filtered and compared to expected engine speed data when the engine is operating in a steady state rated condition.
