G02B 27/28

US Classification:

362259, 362317, 362326, 359495

Abstract:

The current invention provides an optical disruptor having a laser system, a rangefinder, where the rangefinder provides a real-time distance to a target, control electronics; and dynamically-controlled output optics. The dynamically-controlled output optics are actuated by the control electronics to provide a divergence in real-time of an output of the laser system, where the real-time divergence is according to the real-time distance to the target.

US Classification:

215386, 141348, 141 2

Abstract:

A vaporizer filler includes a fill port. The fill port defines an open interior. The open interior is configured to receive the nozzle of an anesthetic bottle. An agent reservoir is configured to receive and store anesthetic agent. A valve is disposed between the open interior and the agent reservoir. At least one vent extends through the fill port. A method of filling a vaporizer includes inserting the nozzle of a bottle filled with anesthetic agent into a vaporizer filler. At least one vent is occluded from fluid communication. Fluid communication between and open interior and an agent reservoir is opened. Anesthetic agent is poured into an agent reservoir of a vaporizer. Fluid communication is closed between the open interior and the agent reservoir. At least one vent is opened to fluid communication with the open interior. Pressure within the open interior is released through the at least one vent.

International Classification:

H01S 5/06

US Classification:

372 22

Abstract:

A monolithic laser cavity device includes an input mirror coating, a birefringent crystal quarter waveplate such as sapphire, a birefringent crystal gain medium such as neodymium-doped vanadate, a Type-II second-harmonic-generation crystal such as potassium titanyl phosphate, and an output mirror coating. The optical axes of the Type-II second-harmonic-generation crystal and birefringent crystal gain medium are aligned with each other and aligned 45 relative to the optical axis of the birefringent crystal quarter waveplate.

International Classification:

G02C 13/00
A61B 3/00
A61B 3/11

Abstract:

The invention relates to systems and methods for providing custom-fitted and styled wearable items such as eyewear based on measurements made from a user-provided image that is resized using a predefined reference that includes an image of an actual wearable item. The eyewear may be provided to a user, who wears the eyewear and provides an image of the user wearing the eyewear. The user-provided images may be compared to a predefined reference (e.g., an image of the eyewear) having a known scale and/or dimension. For example, a user-provided image may be overlaid with the predefined reference and resized so that the wearable item worn by the user in the user-provided image matches (the size of) the wearable item in the predefined reference. Because the scale and/or dimensions of the predefined reference are known, one or more measurements associated with the user may be made based on the user-provided image.

US Classification:

604026000, 600532000, 604508000

Abstract:

The present invention is a system and method of integrating an intravascular gas exchange catheter with a patient respiratory system including a monitor and ventilator. The system and method obtains a monitoring sample of respiratory mechanic parameters for a present time interval, which may be selectively recurring over a predefined time. The system and method, according to the aforementioned respiratory mechanic parameters, alerts a physician to adjust, or automatically adjusts the oxygen delivery through the IGEC the ventilator operation, or both the IGEC and ventilator.
