  • Biologically inspired algorithm based method for near real-time tracking of moving objects in three dimensional environment
    Patent number: 9927604
    Abstract: A method for tracking three-dimensional movement of an object and focusing thereon is provided. Software repeatedly detects three-dimensional locations of one or more objects and image quality by sampling images at many parameter settings as the objects move in three-dimensional environment. The images are ranked occurring to a fitness score and parameter settings for subsequent images to established using a biologically-inspired algorithm.
    Type: Grant

  • APPARATUS FOR TESTING THE QUALITY OF A FLUID SAMPLE
    Publication number: 20150033834
    Abstract: An apparatus for testing the quality of a fluid sample includes a chamber having an opening for receiving at least some of the fluid sample and a sealing element arranged to be movable to a sealing position. An insertion portion of the sealing element is received within an insertion space of the chamber to seal the opening One of the sealing element and container is arranged to define a displacement passage for enabling a portion of the fluid sample that is located within the insertion space to be displaced therefrom as the sealing element assumes the sealing position.
