Abstract: A delivery system for a sensor chip includes a plurality of selectable ports and a two-way pump port selectively connectable to each of the selectable ports. The two-way pump port is configured to allow material to be drawn or delivered from or to the two-way pump port. The delivery system also includes a chamber and a bypass waste channel that is selectively connectable to the two-way pump port. The plurality of selectable ports includes a selectable chamber port connected to the chamber and the chamber has a chamber waste exit. Material may selectively flow through the chamber to a waste collection via the chamber waste exit or flow to the waste collection via the bypass waste channel that bypasses the chamber waste exit.

Abstract: A delivery system for a sensor chip includes a plurality of selectable ports arranged on a first assembly. Each of the selectable ports is in communication with a separate channel. The delivery system includes a second assembly movable in relation to the first assembly. The second assembly has a channel that is mechanically connectable to different ones of the plurality of selectable ports on the first assembly by motion of the second assembly relative to the first assembly. The delivery system includes a mechanical interface configured to engage a separate actuator so that relative motion of the first assembly and the second assembly is affected by the actuator.

Abstract: A nanopore based sequencing system is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of nanopore sensors, each nanopore sensor having a top portion for receiving a fluid. The system further includes an inlet delivering the fluid into the nanopore based sequencing system and an outlet delivering the fluid out of the nanopore based sequencing system. The system includes a fluid chamber that comprises one or more fluid flow channels above top portions of the nanopore sensors; wherein the fluid chamber includes at least one divider that limits the width of the one or more fluid flow channels. In some embodiments, the at least one divider limits the width of the one or more fluid flow channel based on whether the surface tension and adhesive forces between the fluid and the fluid flow channel surfaces are sufficient to prevent the fluid from collapsing within the fluid flow channel.

Abstract: A biochip for molecular detection and sensing is disclosed. The biochip includes a substrate. The biochip includes a plurality of discrete sites formed on the substrate having a density of greater than five hundred wells per square millimeter. Each discrete site includes sidewalls disposed on the substrate to form a well. Each discrete site includes an electrode disposed at the bottom of the well.

Abstract: A device includes a projection and camera system to create an augmented reality environment in which images are projected onto a scene and user movement within the scene is captured. The projection and camera system have a camera to image scattered IR light from the scene and compute time of flight values used in depth mapping of objects in the room. The system also has a projector to project the images onto the scene. The projected images and scattered IR light use a common optical path through the same lens. Additionally, an illumination system used to illuminate the scene with the IR light may also use the common optical path through the same lens. In one implementation, the projection and camera system are mounted in a movable head of a table lamp.
