Publication number: 20240241385Abstract: A linear actuation mechanism includes a first threaded rod rotatably fixed on a frame, an actuator mechanically coupled to the first threaded rod and configured to cause a rotation thereof, a first nut threaded onto the first threaded rod and attached to a first eyecup configured to hold a first optical element for a headset display, and a rail on the frame configured to support the first eyecup as it moves with the first nut. A headset including a display and two eyepieces supported by at least the first eyecup and the above linear actuation mechanism, and a method for using the linear actuation mechanism to adjust an inter-axial distance between the eyepieces are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2023Publication date: July 18, 2024Inventors: Timothy Pier, Daniel Ju, Robert Coleman Skelton, Aric A Fitz-Coy, Thomas Christopher Frey, Jonathan Beardsley, Jiang Ai, Kellen Hoo Kerng Chow

Publication number: 20120129710Abstract: A member of a specific binding pair (sbp) is identified by expressing DNA encoding a genetically diverse population of such sbp members in recombinant host cells in which the sbp members are displayed in functional form at the surface of a secreted recombinant genetic display package (rgdp) containing DNA encoding the sbp member or a polypeptide component thereof, by virtue of the sbp member or a polypeptide component thereof being expressed as a fusion with a capsid component of the rgdp. The displayed sbps may be selected by affinity with a complementary sbp member, and the DNA recovered from selected rgdps for expression of the selected sbp members. Antibody sbp members may be thus obtained, with the different chains thereof expressed, one fused to the capsid component and the other in free form for association with the fusion partner polypeptide. A phagemid may be used as an expression vector, with said capsid fusion helping to package the phagemid DNA.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2011Publication date: May 24, 2012Applicants: MEDIMMUNE LIMITED, MEDICAL RESEARCH COUNCILInventors: John McCafferty, Anthony Richard Pope, Kevin Stuart Johnson, Hendricus Renerus Jacobus Mattheus Hoogenboom, Andrew David Griffiths, Ronald Henry Jackson, Kasper Philipp Holliger, James David Marks, Timothy Piers Clackson, David John Chiswell, Gregory Paul Winter, Timothy Peter Bonnert

Patent number: 7732377Abstract: A member of a specific binding pair (sbp) is identified by expressing DNA encoding a genetically diverse population of such sbp members in recombinant host cells in which the sbp members are displayed in functional form at the surface of a filamentous bacteriophage particle containing DNA encoding the sbp member, wherein the sbp member has a binding domain that consists of a dAb fragment. The displayed sbps may be selected by affinity with a complementary sbp member, and the DNA recovered from selected filamentous bacteriophage particles for expression of the selected sbp members.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2004Date of Patent: June 8, 2010Assignees: Medical Research Council, MedImmune LimitedInventors: John McCafferty, Anthony Richard Pope, Kevin Stuart Johnson, Henricus Renerus Jacobus Mattheus Hoogenboom, Andrew David Griffiths, Ronald Henry Jackson, Kaspar Philipp Holliger, James David Marks, Timothy Piers Clackson, David John Chiswell, Gregory Paul Winter, Timothy Peter Bonnert
