20140081346 | VESTIBULAR PROSTHESIS - A vestibular prosthesis includes micro-electric-mechanical (MEMS) sensors, gyroscopes in each sensitivity axis (X, Y, Z), accelerometers in each sensitivity axis (X, Y, Z) to detect an angular and linear movement providing displacement measurements, gyroscopes in each one of the spatial axes (X, Y, Z), a microprocessor connected to the MEMS sensors and producing an electric pulse pattern or a continuous galvanic current pattern, a conditioning unit that amplifies and conditions the microprocessor output to apply current to the stimulation electrodes, the microcontroller being configured to determine the displacement of the cupula and the otolithic mass, determine a membrane potential as a result of a displacement detected by the MEMS sensors by means of determining a transduction current, and determine an action potential discharge pattern for the primary afferent neuron, which synapses with the hair cell by means of a mathematical model of the informative process of the vestibular mechanoreceptor. | 03-20-2014 |
20140081177 | POSTUROGRAPHIC SYSTEM USING A BALANCE BOARD - A stabilometric system is provided that uses a balance platform to detect problems in the vestibular system via data capture, data visualization and mathematical analysis of data, the system having means for data capture that obtain customized records and store data resulting from the readings of the sensors of the balance platform, means for displaying the data obtained using stabilometric tests on a screen that is controlled by a computer, and means for processing the data obtained from the measurements. | 03-20-2014 |
20090043063 | Process to obtain dimers, trimers and up to polymers from pyridinmethanol derivatives compounds - The process of the current invention, named Percino-Chapela, has as one of its main novelty features that starting from pyridinmethanol derivatives, a dimerization or polymerization reaction of pyridinic alcohols is carried out in order to produce novel products, the process of the current invention has the following aspects that characterize it: it is carried out in the absence or presence of some solvent, during the process of the current invention, temperature may be or may be not used as catalyst, in the process of the current invention the reaction may be or may not be catalyzed by the presence of a catalyst (acid or base), the resultant products can be produced and separated in an easy way, in the process of the current invention starting from pyridinic alcohols the resultant ethenediols can be produced by a single step reaction, the pyridinmethanol derivatives used as starting compounds, do not oxidize as easily and their handling is easier than that of other compounds previously used that oxidize easily, the products produced with etheneidol parts can be used as antioxidants due to their capacity to act as free radicals scavengers. | 02-12-2009 |
