  • Patent number: 11266274
    Abstract: A catering box with active climate control is configured to transport “delicate” foods, such as grilled cheese sandwiches, hot dogs, and hamburgers, without inducing substantial sogginess in the bread of those food items. The catering box includes a heat mass configured to retain heat generated by a hot plate and to then radiate that heat, during transport, after the hot plate has been disconnected from a power source. In addition, the catering box includes an exhaust fan that actively controls internal specific humidity levels in order to prevent moisture from settling within the bread of stored food items. A microcontroller within the catering box monitors temperature and absolute humidity levels, computes the current specific humidity level, and then selectively engages or disengages the exhaust fan in response. With his approach, the catering box may limit the degree to which humidity settles within the bread of delicate food items stored within.

  • Patent number: 10537737
    Abstract: An adaptive non-invasive alternating current brain stimulation system and method includes supplying transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) from a tACS source to a person, and receiving electroencephalogram (EEG) signals from EEG sensors disposed on the person, where the EEG signals including stimulation interference. The received EEG signals are processed using an adaptive model to estimate the stimulation interference in the EEG signals. The estimated stimulation interference is subtracted from the EEG signals to estimate neural oscillations of the person. The estimated neural oscillations are processed through an autoregressive model to generate predictions of future neural activity of the person and, based on the generated predictions, one or more electrical characteristics of the tACS being supplied to the person are varied to thereby modulate the neural oscillations of the person.

  • Publication number: 20100280403
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed technology provide reliable and fast communication of a human through a direct brain interface which detects the intent of the user. An embodiment of the disclosed technology comprises a system and method in which least one sequence of a plurality of stimuli is presented to an individual (using appropriate sensory modalities), and the time course of at least one measurable response to the sequence(s) is used to select at least one stimulus from the sequence(s). In an embodiment, the sequence(s) may be dynamically altered based on previously selected stimuli and/or on estimated probability distributions over the stimuli. In an embodiment, such dynamic alteration may be based on predictive models of appropriate sequence generation mechanisms, such as an adaptive or static sequence model.

  • Publication number: 20090141007
    Abstract: A system and method of dynamically calibrating an image triage system. An image that may include one or more target entities is into a plurality of individual non-calibration image chips. Each non-calibration image chip is successively displayed to a user for a presentation time period. A calibration image chip that includes a synthetic target entity is selectively displayed, for the presentation time period, between the successive display of two non-calibration image chips. Calibration data are collected from the user at least while each calibration image chip is being displayed, and the image triage system is dynamically calibrated using the calibration data.
