  • Publication number: 20200193902
    Abstract: A display device and an operating method of the display device are provided. The display device includes a first light emitting diode (LED), a first switch, a second switch, a second LED, a third switch, and a first controller. A first terminal of the first switch receives a first electrical signal. A first terminal of the second switch receives a second electrical signal. A first terminal of the third switch receives a third electrical signal. Here, whether the first switch, the second switch, and the third switch are switched on or off is determined by whether the first LED and the second LED are damaged or not. The first controller is configured to detect whether the first LED and the second LED are damaged or not, generate the second electrical signal and the electrical signal, and generate a plurality of control signals controlling the first switch to the third switch.

  • Publication number: 20180140316
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of apparatus and method for obtaining one or more portions of biological tissue (“micrografts”) to form grafts are provided. For example, a hollow tube can be inserted into tissue at a donor site, and a pin provided within the tube can facilitate controlled removal of the micrograft from the tube. Micrografts can be harvested and directly implanted into an overlying biocompatible matrix through coordinated motion of the tube and pin. A needle can be provided around the tube to facilitate a direct implantation of a micrograft into a remote recipient site or matrix. The exemplary apparatus can include a plurality of such tubes and pins for simultaneous harvesting and/or implanting of a plurality of micrografts. The harvested micrografts can have a small dimension, e.g., less than about 1 mm, which can promote healing of the donor site and/or viability of the harvested tissue.
