  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTEXTUAL INTERACTIONS ON INTERACTIVE FABRICS WITH INDUCTIVE SENSING
    Publication number: 20240118112
    Abstract: A contact-based inductive sensing technique for contextual interactions on interactive fabrics is described. The technique recognizes conductive objects (mainly metallic) that are commonly found in households and workplaces, such as keys, coins, and electronic devices. An apparatus includes an array of a plurality of six by six spiral-shaped coils including conductive thread, sewn onto a four-layer fabric structure. The coil shape parameters were determined based on maximizing the sensitivity based on a new inductance approximation formula. Through a ten-participant study, the performance of sensing technique across 27 common objects was evaluated. A 93.9% real-time accuracy for object recognition resulted.

  • Regulation of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling
    Patent number: 9057096
    Abstract: A composition and method for detecting the ability of a compound to modulate the activity of LGR4, LGR5, or LGR6 receptors in a cell. LGR4, LGR5, and LGR6 are capable of activating the Wnt/?-catenin signaling system which plays essential roles in embryonic development and in the self-renewal and maintenance of adult stem cells.
