| 20080227545 | Apparatus and method for digitization of human motion for virtual gaming - Handheld apparatus and method to provide control over virtual figures and elements within a computer rendered environment. Motion capturing sensors output acceleration vector signals. After digitization and storage of these vector signals into data packets, the packets are wirelessly transmitted to the receiver device. The receiver device transfers the digitized packets to a computer or a video game console. A rendering application resident on the console utilizes the received vector data to move the graphical elements on the display. Unique computation of the acceleration vectors result in realistic and real-time human movement in a computer generated three-dimensional environment. Employment of multiple independent handheld apparatuses provides more precise simulation of human motion in a virtual environment. | 09-18-2008 |

| 20090058417 | Test object for use with diffusion MRI and system and method of synthesizing complex diffusive geometries using novel gradient directions - A test object for use with diffusion MRI and a system and methods of synthesizing complex diffusive geometries. The test object, which includes anisotropic structures, can be used to monitor DTI measures by providing a baseline measurement. Using measurements of the phantom, data characteristic of more complicated diffusive behavior can be “synthesized”, or composed of actual measurements re-arranged into a desired spatial distribution function describing diffusion. Unlike a typical DTI scan, the ADC measurements of the present invention are treated in a “reconstruction” phase as if the gradients were applied in different directions. Given a set of reconstruction directions, a judicious choice of acquisition directions for each reconstruction direction allows for the synthesis of any distribution. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090190816 | Systems and methods for rescaling image intensities with diffusion MRI to synthesize complex diffusive geometries - A method for scaling MR signal intensity after noise has been removed is disclosed. Because the signal in a DTI series varies with the apparent diffusivity in the direction of an applied gradient, one can multiply image data collected under actual clinical conditions with a spatially-dependent scaling function to synthesize different spatial diffusion distributions, after removal of noise. Recombination of the data with the removed noise preserves the bias in the system. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090190817 | Systems and methods for parametric mapping for correction of noise -based systematic bias of DTI metrics, using a DTI mapping phantom - A system and method for minimizing, if not completely eliminating, the systematic bias present in an MR system used for DTI is disclosed. A test object or “phantom” of the present invention is scanned with a desired DTI protocol. The eigenvalues measured with the phantom are compared to the actual values that should have been measured, and a parametric map that links measured eigenvalues to actual eigenvalues is calculated, which is applicable to the desired protocol. Future eigenvalue measurements using this protocol can be recalibrated to actual eigenvalues using this map. | 07-30-2009 |

| 20090311194 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF MAGNETOSOMES - Methods and compositions for using magnetosomes as cellular contrast agents and markers for magnetic resonance imaging are provided. Certain methods involve synthesizing magnetosomes in a cell as directed by a nucleotide construct comprising an exogenous polynucleotide sequence, wherein the magnetosome serves as a contrast agent or marker for magnetic resonance imaging. Methods of synthesizing and isolating magnetosomes for introduction into immune-matched cells within a tissue or subject for use as a contrast agent or marker for magnetic resonance imaging are also provided. Also provided are methods for stably transfecting cells to express a polypeptide that drives or modulates magnetosome production in the cell, cells produced by such methods and methods for their isolation, transgenic animals comprising at least one eukaryotic cell produced by such methods, and vectors and delivery systems for the transfection of such cells. Further provided are methods for non-invasively generating a visible image of a tissue or subject containing at least one cell such transfected cell, as well as use of such methods to monitor the location, migration, or proliferation of cells in a tissue or subject or to detect or monitor gene expression in a tissue or subject. | 12-17-2009 |

| 20110107569 | Large-Scale Lateral Nanowire Arrays Nanogenerators - In a method of making a generating device, a plurality of spaced apart elongated seed members are deposited onto a surface of a flexible non-conductive substrate. An elongated conductive layer is applied to a top surface and a first side of each seed member, thereby leaving an exposed second side opposite the first side. A plurality of elongated piezoelectric nanostructures is grown laterally from the second side of each seed layer. A second conductive material is deposited onto the substrate adjacent each elongated first conductive layer so as to be coupled the distal end of each of the plurality of elongated piezoelectric nanostructures. The second conductive material is selected so as to form a Schottky barrier between the second conductive material and the distal end of each of the plurality of elongated piezoelectric nanostructures and so as to form an electrical contact with the first conductive layer. | 05-12-2011 |
