  • Publication number: 20150077551
    Abstract: A trail camera comprises a camera operable for capturing images; a communication device for transmitting the images to a remote server; and a controller for prompting the camera to automatically capture a test image a pre-determined number of seconds after the trail camera is set-up. A method of checking the communication coverage of the trail camera; comprises placing a scannable code on packaging or a display associated with the trail camera; instructing a customer to scan the scannable code with a mobile communication device before the customer purchases the trail camera; prompting the customer to enter information into the mobile communication device that specifies a geographic area where the trail camera will be used; and providing to the mobile communication device coverage information for the geographic area so the customer can determine if the trail camera will have communication coverage in the geographic area before the customer purchases the trail camera.

  • Patent number: 7463358
    Abstract: An article, process, and method for surface plasmon resonance plates are described. A substrate is covered with a thin metal film onto which a second thin metal film is deposited. The surface of the second thin metal film is converted to the metal oxide which is used to covalently bond organosilanes to the surface. Reactive organosilanes containing terminal bonding groups are arranged in a plurality of spots that are surrounded by inert organosilanes. Biomolecule attachment to the binding group is detected or measured from surface plasmon signals from the first thin metal film.

  • Publication number: 20070009198
    Abstract: A bio-sensor that includes (a) an optical fiber in which the surface of the fiber comprises a hydrogel polymer that includes a functional group comprising a first member of a binding pair; and (b) an excitation light source coupled to the fiber. When the fiber contacts a solution comprising a second member of the binding pair labeled with a light-emitting label, the first member binds to the second member, resulting in the emission of a detectable signal. Alternatively, the first member of the binding pair is provided with the light-emitting label.
