Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100046039MICROSCOPY IMAGING SYSTEM AND METHOD EMPLOYING STIMULATED RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY AS A CONTRAST MECHANISM - A microscopy imaging system is disclosed that includes a first light source, a second light source, a modulator system, focusing optics, an optical detector, and a processor. The first light source is for providing a first train of pulses at a first center optical frequency ω02-25-2010
20100188496SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SELECTIVE DETECTION AND IMAGING IN COHERENT RAMAN MICROSCOPY BY SPECTRAL-TEMPORAL EXCITATION SHAPING - A microscopy imaging system is disclosed that includes a light source system, a spectral shaper, a modulator system, an optics system, an optical detector and a processor. The light source system is for providing a first train of pulses and a second train of pulses. The spectral shaper is for spectrally modifying an optical property of at least some frequency components of the broadband range of frequency components such that the broadband range of frequency components is shaped producing a shaped first train of pulses to specifically probe a spectral feature of interest from a sample, and to reduce information from features that are not of interest from the sample. The modulator system is for modulating a property of at least one of the shaped first train of pulses and the second train of pulses at a modulation frequency. The optical detector is for detecting an integrated intensity of substantially all optical frequency components of a train of pulses of interest transmitted or reflected through the common focal volume. The processor is for detecting a modulation at the modulation frequency of the integrated intensity of substantially all of the optical frequency components of the train of pulses of interest due to the non-linear interaction of the shaped first train of pulses with the second train of pulses as modulated in the common focal volume, and for providing an output signal for a pixel of an image for the microscopy imaging system.07-29-2010

20110219423METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRIGGERING USER COMMUNICATIONS BASED ON PRIVACY INFORMATION - An approach is provided for protecting a user identity in communication based on privacy information. The privacy engine selects one or more parameters associated with a privacy metric. Next, the privacy engine determines the parameters in a communication environment, the communication environment including a user device and a plurality of other devices. Next, the privacy engine computes a privacy level based, at least in part, on the parameters and the privacy metric. Next, the privacy engine compares the computed privacy level against a predetermined privacy level. Then, the privacy engine triggers a communication to one or more of the other devices in the communication environment based, at least in part, on the comparison.09-08-2011

20090138052BONE ANCHORING DEVICE - A bone anchoring device includes an anchoring element having a shank to be anchored in a bone or a vertebra, a rod for connecting at least two anchoring elements, the rod being made of an elastic material. The bone anchoring device further includes a receiving part being connected to the shank for receiving the rod, a seat for the rod being provided in the receiving part the seat having a rod contacting surface, and a locking device cooperating with the receiving part for fixation of the rod in the seat. The locking device includes a rod contacting surface, wherein the rod contacting surface of the seat and/or the rod contacting surface of the locking device includes an engagement structure for engaging the rod, the engagement structure having an asymmetric cross section.05-28-2009
