Abstract: Disclosed herein are device and method for performing a total internal reflection scattering (TIRS) measurement to a sample slide. The device comprises a first reflective plate having a first opening; a second reflective plate having second and third openings and disposed on top of the first reflective plate thereby forming a slot therebetween for accommodating the sample slide, wherein the first opening of the first reflective plate is disposed directly underneath the second opening of the second reflective plate; a white light source disposed in the space formed by the third opening of the second reflective plate and configured to emit a white light into the slot; and a first blackout layer disposed on top of the third opening thereby covering the white light source and keeping the emitted white light from leaking. When the sample slide is inserted into the slot, the white light source illuminates the sample slide so as to achieve the TIRS measurement to the sample slide.

Abstract: A media docking device includes an input circuit, an output circuit and a processing circuit. The input circuit is electrically connected to a media source device for receiving media data. The output circuit is electrically connected to a media play device. The processing circuit is electrically connected to the input circuit and the output circuit. The processing circuit determines if a verification procedure is passed. If the verification procedure is passed, the processing circuit transfers the media data to the media play device. If the verification procedure is not passed, the processing circuit limits a transmission of the media data, such that the media data will not be completely played by the media play device.

Abstract: A media docking device includes an input module, an output module and a processing module. The input module is electrically connected to a media source device for receiving media data. The output module is electrically connected to a media play device. The processing module determines if an instruction is received from the media source device or a remote device. If the instruction is not received, the processing module transfers the media data to the output module to transmit to the media play device. If the instruction is received, the processing module limits a transmission of the media data according to the instruction, such that the media data will not be completely played by the media play device.

Abstract: A detection system and method for the migrating cell is provided. The system is configured to detect a migrating cell combined with an immunomagnetic bead. The system includes a platform, a microchannel, a magnetic field source, a coherent light source and an optical sensing module. The microchannel is configured to allow the migrating cell to flow in it along a flow direction. The magnetic field source is configured to provide magnetic force to the migrating cell combined with the immunomagnetic bead. The magnetic force includes at least one magnetic force component and the magnetic force component is opposite to the flow direction of the microchannel. The coherent light source is configured to provide the microchannel with the coherent light. The optical sensing module is configured to receive the interference light caused by the coherent light being reflected by the sample inside the microchannel.
