  • Publication number: 20080212960
    Abstract: Methods and systems for real-time monitoring of optical signals from arrays of signal sources, and particularly optical signal sources that have spectrally different signal components. Systems include signal source arrays in optical communication with optical trains that direct excitation radiation to and emitted signals from such arrays and image the signals onto detector arrays, from which such signals may be subjected to additional processing.

  • Publication number: 20080152280
    Abstract: Substrates, systems and methods for analyzing materials that include waveguide arrays disposed upon or within the substrate such that evanescent fields emanating from the waveguides illuminate materials disposed upon or proximal to the surface of the substrate, permitting analysis of such materials. The substrates, systems and methods are used in a variety of analytical operations, including, inter alia, nucleic acid analysis, including hybridization and sequencing analyses, cellular analyses and other molecular analyses.

  • Publication number: 20080080059
    Abstract: Modular optical systems employing integrated optical plates, prisms, reflective and semireflective layers that provide less complex, more robust optical systems. The modular systems provide single, or double component optical modules for the redirection, deflection and separation of optical energy for use in optical systems, and particularly optical detection systems for, e.g., fluorescence analysis tools used in the biochemical and chemical analysis industries.

  • Publication number: 20070063992
    Abstract: A finger-keyed human-machine interface device and methods provide outputs suitable for entering keyed data into a computer, cash register, musical device or other machines. Varying relative positions or orientations of body-attached electrodes generates data. Combinations of connections between electrodes are translated into output signals corresponding to keyed outputs. Levels of connections are used for predictive provisional inputs allowing a user to retract outputs before they are made final and for other applications. Mappings of electrodes attached to fingers and hands are presented for entering keyed data or selecting musical notes.

  • Publication number: 20070036511
    Abstract: Methods and systems for monitoring a plurality of different optical signals from a single source of such signals, where each such different optical signal is spatially separated from other such signals and directed to different detectors or locations upon a single detector, which direction is generally accomplished through the use of a small numberof optical components and/or manipulations.
