Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100249893Medical Electrode Assembly - A medical electrode assembly can be substantially transparent or translucent to visible, infrared and/or ultraviolet light so that light rays emitted by a phototherapy device can shine through and pass transversely across every layer of the medical electrode assembly to impinge upon the skin of the patient to which the assembly is attached. This includes an area of skin located directly underneath the medical electrode assembly and thereby enables a combination of therapies including one or more of electrotherapy and phototherapy. The upper and lower exterior exposed faces of the medical electrode can have tacky, self-adhesive surfaces.09-30-2010

20100263174MAGNETIC SAFETY PUSHPIN - A pushpin device of one embodiment preferably comprises a head adapted to allow a user to apply pressure to the head without discomfort. A longitudinally extending fastening member comprises a point at a distal end and is coupled to the head at a proximal end. A base comprises an aperture. The aperture is configured to allow the fastening member to pass through the base as the head moves proximate to the base. An outer member is coupled to the head and the base. The outer member comprises a first position in which the head is spaced from the base and the outer member encloses a longitudinal segment of the fastening member. In a second position the head is proximate to the base and the outer member is deformed, thereby allowing the fastening member to extend through the aperture. The outer member exerts a countering force on the base and the head. One of the head and the base comprises magnetically susceptible material and the other comprises magnetic material. A magnetic force between the head and the base maintains the outer member in the second position in opposition to the countering force.10-21-2010

20110244919Methods and Systems for Determining Image Processing Operations Relevant to Particular Imagery - Image data, such as from a mobile phone camera, is analyzed to determine a colorfulness metric (e.g., saturation) or a contrast metric (e.g., Weber contrast). This metric is then used in deciding which of, or in which order, plural different image recognition processes should be invoked in order to present responsive information to a user. A great number of other features and arrangements are also detailed.10-06-2011

20100092079TARGET AND METHOD OF DETECTING, IDENTIFYING, AND DETERMINING 3-D POSE OF THE TARGET - We disclose a photogrammetry target that includes a background having a first color and a plurality of ovoid regions located on the background and having a second color contrasting the first color. We further disclose a method and system for detecting the target and processing image data captured from the target to discern therefrom at least one of a distance to the target, identification of the target, or pose of the target.04-15-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090216555SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR PERFORMING AUTOMATIC SURVEILLANCE AND TRACKING OF ADVERSE EVENTS - A system, method and computer program product are provided for automatically detecting and tracking adverse events. The system may include one or more data sources configured to provide a combination of clinical, operational and financial data associated with each of a plurality of patients. The system may further include a network entity configured to receive at least part of the combination of data and to apply one or more trigger rules to the combinations of data to identify one or more suspected adverse events. The network entity may further be configured to receive an indication of one or more confirmed adverse events from among the suspected adverse events, and to automatically compile at least part of the combination of data associated with respective patients in association with which the confirmed adverse events occurred. The system may further include a user device configured to enable performance of a root cause analysis of the compiled data.08-27-2009
