Abstract: Computerized systems for detecting and modifying routing of an electronic file are A provided for one or more databases. The systems receive and parse electronic files to detect one or more keys in the electronic files that are indicative of potential routing destinations associated with the one or more detected keys. A determination is then made of one or more corresponding and likely routing destinations for the electronic files, from a set of potential routing destinations, specifically based on the one or more keys and/or other user input reflective of a desired destination. The systems further identify one or more changes (based on historical data, user input, destination storage attributes, key attributes and/or other data), which are operable, when/if made to the electronic file, to trigger a different set of one or more corresponding routing destinations for the electronic file.

Abstract: Computerized systems for managing routing of an electronic file include computer-executable instructions, executable by one or more processors of the system, to cause the system to as least: receive and parse an electronic file to detect one or more words in the content of electronic file that are indicative of potential routing destinations, such as storage silos, associated with the one or more detected words; (ii) determine a set of corresponding and likely routing destinations for the electronic file, from a set of potential routing destinations, specifically based on the one or more words; and (iii) identify one or more potential changes to the words of the electronic file (based on historical data, user input, destination storage attributes, key attributes and/or other data) that are sufficient to trigger a different set of one or more corresponding routing destinations for the electronic file.

Abstract: The present seam visually suppresses a gap defined between two adjacent reflective surfaces. The seam comprises a strip of light propagating material and a plurality of lighting units. The strip of light propagating material defines a front surface, two side surfaces and a back surface. The side surfaces of the strip of light propagating material is adapted for being positioning in the gap defined between the adjacent reflective surfaces. The lighting units are positioned along the back surface of the strip of light propagating material and are adapted for propagating light in the strip of light propagating material. When light is propagated in the strip of light propagating material, the gap between the two adjacent reflective surfaces is visually suppressed.

Abstract: The present image generator visually suppresses a gap between two adjacent reflective surfaces of a reflective display. The image generator comprises memory and a processor. The memory stores position of the gap on the reflective display. The processor analyzes a stream of images to be displayed on the reflective display and determines corresponding lighting data alongside the gap. The processor further controls at least one lighting unit located behind a seam inserted in the gap based on the determined lighting data.

Abstract: An illumination device includes a strip of light propagating material and a plurality of lighting units arranged behind a back surface of the light propagating material, and a controller for controlling the operation of the plurality of lighting unit. The illumination device is positioned in a gap defined between at least two reflective surfaces, such that light from the lighting units projects out of the light propagating material visually from the gap between the two reflective surfaces.

Abstract: The present reflective display comprises at least two reflective surfaces, a strip of light propagating material and a plurality of lighting units. The at least two reflective surfaces define a gap therebetween. The strip of light propagating material defines a front surface, two side surfaces and a back surface. The side surfaces of the strip of light propagating material are adapted for being positioned in the gap between the two reflective surfaces. The lighting units are positioned along the back surface of the strip of light propagating material and when actuated propagate light in the strip of light propagating material. Light propagated in the light propagating material visually suppresses the gap between the two reflective surfaces.

Abstract: A braided stent having an integral retrieval and/or repositioning loop includes a plurality of wires having first and second ends interbraided in a braided pattern to form a tubular stent having opposed atraumatic first and second open ends with each open end having a circumference. The first and second wires ends are disposed at the second stent open end and the wires are looped at the second stent open end so that none of the first or second wires ends are exposed at the circumference of second stent open end. The at least of two of said wires are formed into a repositioning and/or retrieval loop having an elongated portion circumferentially disposed at the first opposed open end. The reposition and/or retrieval loop also includes two sections which run adjacent to each other prior to crossing to permit grabbing of both sections simultaneously by a practitioner.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a grounding apparatus for use with a spray device associated with a vehicle. The grounding apparatus is biased toward the ground so that a portion of the grounding apparatus makes contact with the ground even in uneven terrain. The grounding apparatus is configured to be mounted in a receiver portion of a trailer hitch. In addition, provided herein is a system for powering a spray device with a DC power source, such as an automotive battery. The system includes an oscillator coupled to a step up transformer.

Abstract: A medical device consists of a stent having a first surface and a second surface parallel to the first surface; a single expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) layer contacting the first surface of the stent; and an elastomeric layer applied to at least one surface of the stent. In at least one embodiment, the elastomeric layer is silicone. In at least one embodiment, the medical device is manufactured by positioning the ePTFE layer such that a first surface of the ePTFE layer contacts a first surface of the stent to form a stent-ePTFE assembly; and applying an elastomeric solution to the first surface of the ePTFE layer and at least one surface of the stent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to stent structures having improved migration resistance. In particular, the invention relates to mesh stents, such as braided or twisted stent designs, where at least a portion of the stent is folded back over itself to form a multi-layered stent device. Such multi-layered portions provide for migration resistance, among other advantages.

Abstract: A packing sleeve for use with a safety needle that automatically covers a tip of a needle following removal of the needle from a patient includes a generally hollow body having a longitudinal axis and a distal end and an open proximal end. The body surrounds at least a portion of the safety needle and has at least one track having an activation leg and a releasing leg. The at least one track is in sliding engagement with at least one member of the safety needle such that the motion of a portion of the safety needle relative to the body is dictated by a path the at least one member follows along the respective at least one track. The safety needle is in an initial position when the at least one member is proximate a first end of the activation leg and in an intermediate position when the at least one member is proximate a second end of the activation leg.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide a self-powered wireless gas sensor system and a method for gas sensing using the system. The system can be used to detect and constantly track a presence of various gases including hydrogen, ozone and/or any hydrocarbon gas, and remotely transmit the sensing signal. The system can include a low power gas sensor that consumes less than about 30 nano-watts of power. As a result, the system can detect the presence of hydrogen at about 10 ppm. The sensor can also provide a fast response time of about 1-2 seconds. In various embodiments, the system can be physically small and packaged with all components assembled as a single compact unit.
