  • Publication number: 20250079008
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for improving detection and treatment of patient conditions based on continuous analyte data. The disclosed techniques utilize analyte data, such as lactate, glucose, and creatinine, provided from a continuous analyte sensor to predict patient outcomes. The prediction may also take into account other medical information associated with the patient, such as patient vital signs and medical history. The disclosed system allows for early and non-invasive prediction of patient outcomes in various settings including a hospital setting, a home setting, disease (e.g., heart failure, sepsis) detection, and high risk surgery monitoring. The disclosed system also is configured to monitor patient conditions and generating alerts and/or notifications based on the predicted patient outcomes to provide preemptive treatment of patient conditions.

  • Publication number: 20240430389
    Abstract: A projector having a curved field lens and a displaced light modulating display. The system includes at least one light source configured to generate colored light beams, and a prism routing the light beams to the display. The curved field lens is coupled to a face of the prism, and the prism and curved field lens together decenter the light beam from the prism face and uniformly illuminate the display. A center of the display is displaced from the projection lens optical axis. The decentered light beam and the displaced display together generate a favorable shifted boresight of the created image. Dimensions of components of the projector are a function of a curvature of the curved field lens. The greater the curvature of the curved field lens, the smaller the dimensions of the components and the overall projector. The projector may be used in eyewear.

  • Patent number: 12007569
    Abstract: A compact projector for eyewear including a refractive lens to achromatize an image and to reduce the size of the projector. The compact projector includes two total internal reflection (TIR) prisms, a polarizing beamsplitter, a quarter-wave plate, and the refractive lens combining refractive and reflective power, referred to as catadioptric. In one example, a light source generates light that is directed through a collector, into a first TIR prism, to the polarizing beamsplitter, and to a display panel. The display panel modulates the light and creates an image. The image is directed through the beamsplitter, into a second TIR prism, through a quarter-wave plate, and then to the refractive lens. The refractive lens reflects the image back into the second TIR prism, and which image then exits to a waveguide. In a second example, the display generates an illuminated image which is then processed as in the first example.

  • Patent number: 11835786
    Abstract: A multi-element imaging lens can be formed from five plastic elements, and an optional null-power or relatively low power sixth plastic element. The lens can use selected plastic materials to reduce a thermal focal shift. In the lens, negative refractive power elements can be formed from plastic materials having a relatively large negative refractive index variation with temperature, abbreviated as dn/dT, while positive refractive power elements can be formed from plastic materials having a relatively small negative dn/dT. Reducing the thermal focal shift, as disclosed, can eliminate the need for an auto-focusing device, such as a voice coil. Reducing the thermal focal shift, as disclosed, can also eliminate the need to use one or more glass elements to further reduce thermal focal shift, which can reduce cost for the lens.

  • Patent number: 11778984
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a navigational safety system for visually impaired quadrupeds. An onlay has a right side, a left side, a top side, a bottom side, and a chest side. The onlay is retrofittable to or manufactured into a harness worn by a quadruped. Distance sensors and vibrators are integrated into the onlay and configured to determine the distance between obstacles and provide localized vibration stimulation to the quadruped. The vibration causes the quadruped to change course avoiding the obstacle. In this regard, the localized vibrations are positioned on the right torso, the left torso, and the chest of the quadruped.
