  • Patent number: 11779757
    Abstract: One or more antennas are electrically coupled to one or more switches of an implantable medical device (IMD) in which the one or more switches are additionally electrically coupled to one or more lead wires of an IMD lead. The one or more switches also are electrically coupled to one or more electrodes or electrical circuitry of the IMD's implantable pulse generator (IPG). In response to exposure of the IMD to an energetic electromagnetic field, a voltage signal is induced in the one or more antennas and provided, possibly via one more filters, as a control signal to the one or more switches. Receipt of the control signal by the one or more switches automatically configures the one or more switches into a non-conductive state, thereby electrically isolating the one or more lead wires from the one or more electrodes or the IPG electrical circuitry.

  • Publication number: 20220411458
    Abstract: Phosphoramidate-based monomers are provided for use in the synthesis of expandable polymers for nanopore-based sensing. Such monomers comprising a reporter construct that contain a first reporter code, a symmetrical chemical brancher bearing a translocation control element, and a second reporter code, wherein the ends of the reporter construct are attached to phosphoramidate-nucleoside. Related methods and products are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20170091779
    Abstract: Technologies for enabling real-time support for requests (e.g., onboarding requests, support requests, managing requests, troubleshooting requests, etc.) based at least in part on contextual data are described. The technologies described can receive a request associated with a product and/or a service and determine contextual data associated with the request. The contextual data can define a status of an application associated with the product and/or the service. Additionally, the technologies described can include determining support providers for supporting the request based partly on the contextual data and generating task data associated with the request. The task data can include the contextual data.

  • Publication number: 20170091778
    Abstract: Technologies for enabling support providers to integrate into a support application and provide real-time support for requests based at least partly on authorizations associated with the support providers are described. The technologies described can access authentication data associated with support providers. The technologies described can receive a request associated with a product and/or a service and determine contextual data associated with the request. The technologies described can determine authorization data associated with support providers, determine support providers for supporting the request based partly on the contextual data, determine that the support providers are authorized to receive the request, and generate task data associated with the request.

  • Publication number: 20150283429
    Abstract: A golf club may include a control unit that detects a swing of the golf club and generates a signal based on at least one goal swing parameter during the swing of the golf club. The golf club may include a stimulation generation module, configured to generate a stimulation in response to the signal.

  • Publication number: 20070091137
    Abstract: A method of calibrating a printing apparatus comprising: providing a printing apparatus with a mobile printhead, the printhead being mobile along a scanning direction, the printhead comprising a plurality of nozzles; providing a media; printing a first pattern on the media while scanning the media with the printhead at a first scanning velocity; printing a second pattern on the media while scanning the media with the printhead at a second velocity, the absolute value of the second velocity differing from the absolute value of the first velocity; comparing the printed patterns to each other by optical means; setting the printhead scanning velocity for printing in relation to the velocity associated with the pattern having the best definition.

  • Publication number: 20050156976
    Abstract: A method of an embodiment of the invention is disclosed that determines calibration factors for a fluid-ejection mechanism that is capable of ejecting differently colored fluids onto media. The energy used to eject fluid for each of at least one of the fluid colors is adjusted based on the calibration factors, so that fluid drop ejections of the fluid colors yield fluid drop masses having a consistent ratio.
