Abstract: An electrical connector includes a heat dissipation module with a first end and a second end opposed to the first end and two receptacle connectors located at the second end. The first and second ends define a transceiver-mating direction such that, when a transceiver is inserted into the first end of the heat dissipation module in the transceiver-mating direction, the transceiver mates with one of the two receptacle connectors, and in the heat dissipation module, air flows parallel to the transceiver-mating direction between the first and second ends and flows between the two receptacle connectors.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for processing, transmitting and displaying data received from an analyte sensor, such as a glucose sensor. The system may include a display device with at least one input device. In response to movement of or along the input device, the display device may change a glucose data output parameter and update an output of the display device using the changed output parameter.

Abstract: A method for generating an automated test configured to test a system under test. The system under test includes a plurality of operational states and executable actions. The method includes: providing a model of the system under test, the model including a plurality of model states and selectable model actions, wherein one or more of the model states are representative of operational states of the system under test and each model action is associated with one or more executable actions on the system under test; and generating an automated test. The automated test is generated by selecting a sequence of model actions; and defining, based on the selected sequence of model actions, an automated test configured to execute a sequence of executable actions on the system under test. The selection of model actions is dependent upon the previous selection of model actions in the current and/or previous automated tests.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.

Abstract: The present embodiments harness a wide variety of capabilities of modern smartphones, and combine these capabilities with information from a continuous glucose monitor to provide diabetics and related people with more information than the continuous glucose monitor can provide by itself. The increased information provides the diabetic with an increased likelihood of good diabetes management for better health.

Abstract: The present invention compositions, methods and systems to identify, detect, and/or quantify bacterial DNA in the presence of contaminating non-bacterial DNA. In particular, the present invention provides oligonucleotides configured to detect a relatively small amount of bacterial DNA in the presence of an overwhelmingly large amount of contaminating human DNA.

Abstract: A transceiver assembly includes a cage and a heatsink. The cage includes first and second spaced apart walls and a third wall that spans the first and second walls. The third wall defines an opening, and the third wall includes two spring arms that each extend into the opening. The heatsink includes a heatsink body including a first surface and a protrusion that extends from the first surface of the heatsink body and a pair of spring-arm receivers positioned on the first surface of the heatsink body. Each of the pair of spring-arm engagement portions is configured to engage with a corresponding one of the two spring arms of the cage when the heatsink is attached to the cage.

Abstract: A vehicle information system is described. The vehicle information system may include an OBD interface device configurable for communication with a vehicle computer system. The OBD interface device may include at least a first transmitter and a first receiver. One or more communication protocols may be configured for communication between at least one of the OBD interface device and a client electronic device, the OBD interface device and a server computer, and the OBD interface device and a wireless receiver. An application programming interface may be configured to allow interaction between the OBD interface device and at least one of a server computer and a client electronic device.

Abstract: An infusion and blood collection device allows clean blood collections into a collection tube via a previously installed angiocatheter without interrupting the administration of intravenous therapies after initial installation. The device optionally includes passive control of the blood collection flow rate to prevent contamination of the collected blood draw with the IV therapy fluid being simultaneously infused through the angiocatheter. A blood collection method uses an infusion and blood collection device to draw a clean blood sample from a patient and into a collection tube via a previously installed angiocatheter without interrupting the administration of intravenous therapies.

Abstract: A broadband antenna element for wireless communications includes one or more radiator layers to receive an electrical signal and to transmit a polarized electromagnetic (EM) wave. A feed layer including a feeding mechanism feeds the electrical signal generated by a transmitter into the radiator layer. A ground layer is coupled to a ground potential of the transmitter. The one or more radiator layers, the feed layer, and the ground layer are conductor layers of a multilayer substrate that includes metal layers and dielectric layers. The antenna element transmits with a broad bandwidth centered at a frequency of about 60 GHz, and maintains the broad bandwidth and polarization purity for scan angles up to a predefined value.
