Patents by Inventor Michael Simonsen

Michael Simonsen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12279823
    Abstract: A binocular scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) is used to track the fixational eye movement of each of the eyes of a subject. The binocular SLO may include right eye optics for imaging a portion of the retina of the right eye and left eye optics for imaging a portion of the retina of the left eye. Shifts in the imaged portion of the retina with respect to a reference image of the retina may be used to measure and track eye movement. The right eye optics and left eye optics may be separate imaging paths, each with its own bi-directional MEMS scanning mirror and Keplerian telescope. The use of the MEMS scanning mirrors minimizes the size and weight of the binocular SLO.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20080072280
    Abstract: A method and system for enabling a secure electronic network communications asset is provided. A computational engine networked with an electronic communications is configured to comprise a network endpoint. One, two or a group of particular applications or network services enabled by that endpoint are identified as an addressable secure asset. Policies are established and implemented to limit interactivity between the secure asset and any communications interface to which the asset is connected. The endpoint is configured to be accessible by one or more specific user groups under possibly unique sets policies assigned to each user group. Any network endpoint must be a member of one at least user group in order to access the secure asset and must abide by the policies imposed by the secure asset onto the including user group.
