Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for analyzing a test sample is provided. A system includes an outer container having first and second ends and a base affixed to the first end. The system includes a motorized mixer affixed to the base. The system includes an inner container having first and second ends. The inner container is sized to be received within the outer container. The first end of the inner container has a membrane layer that is pierceable by the mixer when the inner container is received by the outer container to bring the mixer into contact with a test sample in the inner container. The system further includes a test sensor configured for contact with the test sample, and one or more processors for receiving signals from the test sensor following actuation of the mixer to cause mixing of the sample and analyzing the sample based on the signals.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for analyzing a test sample is provided. A test sampling apparatus includes a housing extending from a first end to a second end opposite the first end. The housing includes a chamber disposed at the first end. The chamber is configured to receive a test sample from a user. The test sampling apparatus includes a test sensor fluidically coupled to the chamber and disposed within an interior portion of the housing. The test sensor is configured to receive the test sample and generate information based thereon. The information includes data identifying a substance in the test sample. The test sampling apparatus also includes one or more processors disposed within an interior portion of the second end and in communication with the test sensor. The one or more processors receive the information from the test sensor and analyze the test sample based on the information.

Abstract: A hand held camera unit comprises a shoulder assembly and a platform assembly for releasably holding a camera. A connector is provided between the shoulder assembly and the platform assembly, and is movable between a locked position wherein the platform assembly is fixed relative to the shoulder assembly and an unlocked position wherein the platform assembly can be selectively moved relative to the shoulder assembly in the roll axis, the yaw axis and in a fore and aft direction.
