  • Patent number: 12248726
    Abstract: A computerized method of delivering data to one or more client computing devices includes receiving, by a server computing device, a data stream starting at a first time; processing, by the server computing device, the data stream, thereby creating a processed data stream; transmitting, by the server computing device, via a wireless network in electronic communication with the server computing device, the processed data stream to the one or more client computing devices; and interpreting, by an application installed on the one or more client computing devices, the processed data stream, thereby recovering the data stream for use by the one or more client computing devices. A latency between the first time and the second time is less than 100 milliseconds.

  • Publication number: 20240124920
    Abstract: A method of conducting an assay for a set of targets, the method comprising: providing a set of targets; subjecting each target of the set of targets to a recognition event, in which each target is uniquely recognized by and bound to a recognition element associated with a code from a set of codes, thereby yielding a set of coded targets comprising the target and the recognition element; subjecting each recognition element of the set of coded targets to a transformation event, in which a molecular transformation of each recognition element produces a modified recognition element, thereby yielding a set of modified recognition elements comprising the code; subjecting each code of the set of modified recognition elements to an amplifying event, in which each code is amplified, thereby yielding a set of amplified codes; subjecting each amplified code of the set of amplified codes to a detection event, thereby determining the nucleic acid sequence of the code.
