Abstract: An on-demand drug release system provides an implantable drug delivery platform including a drug embedded in a controllable drug release structure. The drug release structure binds or compartmentalizes the drug until release of the drug is initiated by absorption of a near infrared release signal provided by a health care professional. The system allows more effective therapeutic use of opioids and other drugs, and prevents their abuse.

Abstract: A method and a system for transporting inventory in a storage facility is provided. The system includes an inventory storage unit (ISU) and a transport vehicle. The ISU includes a base shelf, and a plurality of support plates mounted below the base shelf. The transport vehicle includes a top plate and a control device that controls movement of the top plate. Upon actuation of an interlocking mechanism of the transport vehicle that is aligned beneath the ISU, the top plate is lifted to a first height and then rotated for engaging the top plate with the support plates of the ISU. The engaged top plate is further lifted to a second height to lift the ISU off the work floor of a storage facility. Upon lifting the ISU, the transport vehicle transports the ISU to another location in the storage facility.

Abstract: Lighting systems and associated controls that can provide active control of lighting device settings, such as on/off, color, intensity, focal length, beam location, beam size and beam shape. In some examples, lighting systems may include eye tracking technology and sensor feedback for one or more lighting device settings and may be configured with depth perception and cavity or incision recognition capability through image or video processing.
