Patent number: 11988584Abstract: A disposable staining system is provided including an insertable module configured to receive a biological sample therein, the insertable module including a well in which the biological sample is positioned; and a staining cartridge configured to receive the insertable module including the biological sample therein, the insertable module being positioned in the staining cartridge. The insertable module has first and second inclined planes on opposing sides of an upper surface of the insertable module. A sled configured to receive the insertable module has corresponding first and second inclined planes on a bottom surface thereof. The first and second inclined planes of the insertable module and the first and second inclined planes of the sled are configured to transform horizontal movement of the insertable module into the staining cartridge into a vertical movement of the sled such that the sled is pushed upward.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2019Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Instapath, Inc.Inventors: Samuel Jacob Luethy, Jonathon Quincy Brown, David Benjamin Tulman, Andrew Blake Sholl, Peter Joseph Lawson, Mei Wang

Patent number: 11968426Abstract: Techniques for selecting TV user interface (UI) transition characteristics are described. In accordance with various embodiments, a transition characteristics selection method is performed at a device (e.g., a cloud UI engine on a server) with one or more processors and a non-transitory memory. The UI engine receives a request for transitioning from a first screen to a second screen on a client device while in a real-time content presentation mode. In response to receiving the request and while in the real-time content presentation mode, the UI engine obtains one or more presentation conditions of the client device and selects one or more transition characteristics for transitioning from the first screen to the second screen based on costs associated with the one or more transition characteristics and the one or more presentation conditions.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Synamedia LimitedInventors: Karthigayan Anand, Anthony Leigh, Peter Benjamin Matthews

Publication number: 20240098076Abstract: A third-party server, delegated by organizations to manage application environment, may maintain a plurality of guided workflow plans. At least one of the guided workflow plans may include one or more steps associated with setting up an interaction control policy. The third-party server may receive an interaction report associated with the organization. The interaction report may include metadata of one or more devices that interacted with other devices. The third-party server may identify a particular device to which existing interaction control policies of the organization are inapplicable. The third-party server may search for additional out-of-band information of the particular device using the metadata in the interaction report. The third-party server may select an applicable guided workflow plan for setting up an applicable interaction control policy for the particular device. A guided workflow may be presented via a graphical user interface according to the applicable guided workflow plan.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Seth Joshua Blank, Ashley Duane Wilson, Peter Martin Goldstein, Jack William Abbott, Robert Benjamin Barclay

Publication number: 20240088593Abstract: An emergency break cable lug device is described. The cable lug device includes a pin element for fixing a cable; and a socket element, in which the pin element is insertable and which is configured to be connected to an external conductor, in particular an external cable or wire. The pin element is adapted to exit the socket element upon a predefined threshold value of force acting on the pin element and/or the socket element. Further, a pin element for a cable lug device, a socket element for a cable lug device and a method for mounting a cable lug device are described.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2022Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Stephan Meyer, Peter Müller, Marcel Benjamin Grauerholz, Björn Spiers

Electrochemical cell with TMCCC electrodes in an acetonitrile solvent including a dinitrile additive
Patent number: 11923507Abstract: A system and method for a liquid electrolyte used in secondary electrochemical cells having at least one electrode including a TMCCC material, the liquid electrolyte enabling an increased lifetime while allowing for fast discharge to extremely high depth of discharge. The addition of dinitriles to liquid electrolytes in electrochemical cells in which energy storage is achieved by ion intercalation in transition metal cyanide coordination compounds (TMCCC) has the advantage of increasing device lifetime by inhibiting common chemical and electrochemical degradation mechanisms.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Natron Energy, Inc.Inventors: Majid Keshavarz, Daniel Friebel, Peter Benjamin Herman, Grace Marjorie Yee, Alex J.

Publication number: 20240067334Abstract: An autonomous vehicle that is equipped with image capture devices can use information gathered from the image capture devices to plan a future three-dimensional (3D) trajectory through a physical environment. To this end, a technique is described for image-space based motion planning. In an embodiment, a planned 3D trajectory is projected into an image-space of an image captured by the autonomous vehicle. The planned 3D trajectory is then optimized according to a cost function derived from information (e.g., depth estimates) in the captured image. The cost function associates higher cost values with identified regions of the captured image that are associated with areas of the physical environment into which travel is risky or otherwise undesirable. The autonomous vehicle is thereby encouraged to avoid these areas while satisfying other motion planning objectives.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: Skydio, Inc.Inventors: Ryan David Kennedy, Peter Benjamin Henry, Hayk Martirosyan, Jack Louis Zhu, Abraham Galton Bachrach, Adam Parker Bry

Publication number: 20230414224Abstract: A medical device system includes an elongate sheath defining a lumen extending within the elongate sheath. A coupler mechanism is slidingly disposed within the lumen, the coupler mechanism including a proximal coupler and a distal coupler. An elongate member is secured to and extends proximally from the proximal coupler. An implantable medical device (IMD) is secured to and extends distally from the distal coupler. The distal coupler remains secured to the proximal coupler while the coupler mechanism remains within the lumen, and the distal coupler releases from the proximal coupler, thereby releasing the IMD, when the coupler mechanism is exterior to the lumen.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Applicant: BOSTON SCIENTIFIC SCIMED, INC.Inventors: Mark Steven Smith, Robert M.
