20100185064 | SKIN ANALYSIS METHODS - The present invention generally relates to a skin care device comprising an electromagnetic radiation source capable of directing incident electromagnetic radiation to a location on the skin of a user, a radiation detector for measuring various parameters of radiation re-emitted from the location and a skin condition analysis module coupled to the detector, the analysis module capable of generating a skin condition assessment in real-time, based partly on at least one of RGB analysis and diffused reflectance analysis of the radiation parameters. In accordance with the described embodiments of the present technique, the device provides a mirror or a reflecting surface for capturing an image of desired body part and gets product recommendations. The recommended products are brought up on to the screen of the mirror to facilitate the consumer to choose there from. The device may be further connected to a computer and a database to get desired results for the consumer. | 07-22-2010 |
20110301441 | ANALYTIC METHODS OF TISSUE EVALUATION - The present invention generally relates to methods and systems for (i) skin assessment based on the utilization of bioimpedance and fractional calculus and implementation of methods for skin hydration assessment based on the utilization of bioimpedance and fractional calculus and systems thereof, (ii) an Opto-Magnetic method based on RGB and gray images data as “cone-rods” principles with enhanced qualitative and quantitative parameters for analyzing water based on Opto-Magnetic properties of light-matter interaction and systems thereof, and (iii) imaging and analyzing skin based on the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation and implementation of an Opto-Magnetic method with enhanced qualitative and quantitative parameters for imaging and analyzing skin based on Opto-Magnetic properties of light-matter interaction and systems thereof. | 12-08-2011 |
20120321759 | CHARACTERIZATION OF FOOD MATERIALS BY OPTOMAGNETIC FINGERPRINTING - The present invention generally relates to methods and systems to determine the properties of light-matter interaction in the characterization of food materials using an incident light source and a sensor to measure the opto-magnetic properties of light reflected from the food material. The opto-magnetic properties can be used to generate an opto-magnetic footprint. Comparison of the opto-magnetic footprint with opto-magnetic footprints of known materials enables characterization of the food materials. This enables detection of pesticide residues, confirmation of “organic” labeling, and determination of freshness of the food materials. | 12-20-2012 |

20090161827 | METHODS AND DEVICES FOR DETECTING, CONTROLLING, AND PREDICTING RADIATION DELIVERY - Embodiments provide method and systems for determining alignment of a patient's body part, such as an eye, in an external coordinate system of a treatment or diagnostic device, such as a radiotherapy device, so as to define a reference axis for guiding device operation. Additional embodiments provide image-based methods and systems for aligning, tracking and monitoring motion of a body part and a treatment target in relation to a radiation beam axis. Particular ophthalmic embodiments provide method and systems including an eye-contact guide device and imaging system for aligning and tracking motion of an eye and ocular treatment target in relation to an orthovoltage X-ray beam axis, so as to monitor application of radiation to a lesion, such as a macular lesion of the retina. Particular methods for controlling radiation in response to motion of the target during treatment are described, such as algorithms for gating or interrupting radiation emission, both to ensure treatment goals and to avoid exposure to sensitive structures. | 06-25-2009 |
