Abstract: This invention is directed to stretchable polymer thick film compositions useful for wearable garments. More specifically, the polymer thick film may be used in applications where significant stretching is required, particularly on substrates that can be highly elongated. A particular type of substrate is a thermoplastic polyurethane substrate.

Abstract: An imaging system includes an imaging unit, a display unit, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to acquire a first type of diagnostic imaging information of the patient; reconstruct a first image using the first type of diagnostic imaging information; if a first stop criterion for terminating imaging is not satisfied, acquire a second type of diagnostic imaging information having an increased level of acquisitional burden; reconstruct a second image; if a second stop criterion for terminating imaging is not satisfied, acquire a third type of diagnostic imaging information having an increased level of acquisitional burden, wherein the patient is maintained on a table of the imaging unit during the acquisition of the second type of diagnostic imaging information, reconstruction of the second image, and acquisition of the third type of diagnostic imaging information; reconstruct a third image; and display the third image.

Abstract: This invention provides improved printed heaters for use in wearable garments. The improvement comprises replacing the single large area resistive material layer with a number of small patches of resistive material, i.e., replacing the single large area heater with a number of smaller individual heaters. Printing of the resistive material is facilitated since the area of each resistive material patch is greatly reduced. In addition, some embodiments enable the opportunity to provide a breathable heater.

Abstract: Systems for providing assemblies for containing multi-cell battery systems, and/or multi-cell batteries using such enclosures, are described. A battery case may be partitioned into a battery management portion and a cell portion. Each portion may be configured to accept corresponding battery components in a modular fashion allowing easy installation, removal, and access. The batteries may be configured for convenient handling, storage, and use in a variety of environments.

Abstract: An assembly includes an electrochemical cell stack and an outer insulation layer. The electrochemical cell stack includes a port to form a releasable connection with a stack handling mechanism. The outer insulation layer substantially covers the stack and an opening through the insulation layer exposes the port for connection with the stack handling mechanism.

Abstract: A fuel cell system includes a fuel cell stack and a thermostat. The thermostat is mounted to the fuel cell stack to regulate a flow of coolant.
