| 20100110445 | SLIT APERTURE FOR DIFFRACTION RANGE FINDING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING THE SLIT APERTURE TO FORM A FOCUSED IMAGE - A method and system for forming a focused image on an image plane of a diffraction range finder with a variable pitch diffraction grating. The system includes the variable pitch diffraction grating and a slit through which diffracted light may traverse after having been diffracted by the diffraction grating, wherein the diffracted light is configured to form a focused image on an image plane of a camera after traversing the slit. The method propagates the diffracted through the slit and onto the image plane of the camera, wherein the diffracted light had been diffracted by the variable pitch diffraction grating. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100290120 | SLIT APERTURE FOR DIFFRACTION RANGE FINDING SYSTEM - A method and system for forming a focused image on an image plane of a diffraction range finder with a variable pitch diffraction grating. Diffracted light is propagated through a lens and slit assembly and onto an image plane of a camera, the diffracted light having been diffracted by the variable pitch diffraction grating. The lens and slit assembly includes lens elements and a slit. The slit is surrounded by opaque material that is opaque to the diffracted light passing through the slit. The slit has a shape characterized by a long dimension and a short dimension that is shorter than the long dimension. | 11-18-2010 |

| 20080278196 | LOGIC CIRCUITS HAVING DYNAMICALLY CONFIGURABLE LOGIC GATE ARRAYS - A logic gate array for implementing logical expressions is provided. The array includes a dynamically configurable logic gate having a chaotic updater for causing the logic gate to alternately operate as one of a several different logic gate types, the dynamically configurable logic gate alternating from operating as one logic gate type to a different logic gate type in response to one or more reference signals. The array also includes one or more additional logic gates. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20100219862 | RECONFIGURABLE AND RELIABLE LOGIC CIRCUIT ELEMENTS THAT EXPLOIT NONLINEARITY AND NOISE - A logic gate is adapted to implement logical expressions. The logic gate includes at least one input that is adapted to receive an input signal and at least one control signal. At least one of the input signal and the control signal is a noise signal. At least one output is adapted to produce an output signal. A nonlinear updater operates as a dynamically configurable element and produces multiple different logic gates as selected by the control signal based at least in part on the noise signal. The nonlinear updater is electrically coupled to the input and is also electrically coupled to the output. The nonlinear updates is configured to apply a nonlinear function to the input signal in response to the control signal to produce the output signal representing a logical expression being implemented by one of the multiple different logic gates on the input signal. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100318506 | NON-LINEAR DYNAMICAL SEARCH ENGINE - A dynamical search engine for searching a database is also provided. The dynamical search engine includes an array of nonlinear dynamical elements. The nonlinear dynamical element information items in a manner that confines the state of each element on a fixed point and uniquely encodes the information items. The dynamical search engine also includes a controller for controlling electrical signals supplied to elements of the array in a predetermined sequence. One supplied signal increases a state value of each element of the array by a quantity defining a search key that corresponds to a searched-for information item. A subsequently supplied signal updates the state value of each element of the array by performing a nonlinear folding of each state value based on a predetermined pivot. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20110062986 | LOGIC BASED ON THE EVOLUTION OF NONLINEAR DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS - A logic gate implements logical expressions.

| 20110130797 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING EPILEPTOGENESIS - Neuronal excitation and inhibition of the brain is tracked in the hippocampual CA1 network during a latent period, wherein biomarkers are observed which include a sustained increase in the firing rate of the excitatory postsynaptic field activity, paired with a subsequent decrease in the firing rate of the inhibitory postsynaptic field activity within the CA1 region of the hippocampus; the mean amplitude profiles of both fEPSP and fIPSP field potential activity during the latent period have characteristic shapes; both excitatory and inhibitory CA1 field activity firing rates are observed to follow a circadian rhythm that drifts during epileptogenesis; the circadian rhythms described are in-phase in controls and anti-phase during epileptogenesis; and the fEPSP rate drifts from a circadian rhythm to a greater extent than the fIPSP rate. An additional biomarker is a change in a circadian rhythm of core body temperature. Upon detection of one or more of the biomarkers in a patient with a predisposition to seizure, therapeutic measures including thermal, chemical, or electrical modulation are applied to prevent the occurrence of the seizure, in an open or closed loop process. | 06-02-2011 |
