Abstract: Methods, devices, systems and kits for obtaining blood samples are provided. Devices include a cuff, a pressure source, and a timing mechanism. The methods include placing a cuff on a digit of a subject, inflating the cuff, and obtaining a small volume blood sample. The methods further include warming a digit lancing a digit pulsing the cuff; and providing a signal indicating the end of the sample collection time period.

Abstract: Presented are computing systems and control logic for provisioning quantitative color analysis to derive color harmony, devices for executing such logic, and methods for operating such systems/devices. A method of analyzing color selections to generate matching colors includes transmitting, via a server computer over a distributed computing network to a user's personal computing device, multiple user-selectable colors organized as discrete hues distributed over a human-perceivable visible spectrum. The server computer receives the user's selection(s) from the user-selectable colors, which includes one or more of the discrete hues. These selection(s) is/are imported into a device-independent, three-axis color space model; a geometric object characterized by the mathematical golden ratio is built into the color space model. The server computer generates a list of colors harmonized with the user-selected color(s) by correlating the geometric object with the discrete hue(s) in the color space model.

Abstract: Presented are computing systems and control logic for digital image processing with measurement derivation, devices for executing such logic, methods for operating such systems, and computer-readable media for carrying out such logic. A method of processing digital images generated by a user's image capture device includes a server computer receiving, over a distributed computing network from the user's image capture device, electronic files containing the digital images. The server computer processes the digital images for visualization, including converting each electronic file into a compatible image rendering language and mapping regions in the digital images for pattern replacement. The server computer adds query measurements to these mapped regions to determine measurements within multiple perspective planes based on image coordinates.

Abstract: Bodily fluid sample collection systems, devices, and method are provided. The device may comprise a first portion comprising at least a sample collection channel configured to draw the fluid sample into the sample collection channel via a first type of motive force. The sample collection device may include a second portion comprising a sample vessel for receiving the bodily fluid sample collected in the sample collection channel, the sample vessel operably engagable to be in fluid communication with the collection channel, whereupon when fluid communication is established, the vessel and/or another source provides a second motive force different from the first motive force to move a majority of the bodily fluid sample from the channel into the vessel.

Abstract: The present invention involves a surveying system and method which determines the position of an object point using two images. First, at least two reference points appearing on the two images are correlated. Then the position of the object point is determined based on the two images and the two reference points.
