Filed: 2019-01-08
Abstract: A toner coverage sensing system is provided for sensing toner particles printed onto a surface of a process element using an electrophotographic printing system. The printed toner particles include porous color toner particles. An infrared radiation source directs infrared radiation onto the printed toner particles on the surface of the process element A diffused radiation detector senses infrared radiation scattered from the printed toner particles, wherein the diffused radiation detector is oriented such that that the sensed infrared radiation does not include specular reflections from the surface of the process element. A data processing system determines a sensed toner coverage for the porous color toner particles on the surface of the process element responsive to the sensed scattered infrared radiation.

Inventor: SHAW LEON
IPC: H01M4/04
Filed: 2019-01-11
Abstract: Si micro-reactors and processes for fabrication thereof are provided. Such fabrication processing involves high-energy ball milling micro-sized Si particles with a first OPC mixture at first ball milling conditions to reduce the micro-sized Si particles to nanostructured particles and form Si+OPC clusters wherein the Si nanostructured particles are glued together by OPC. The Si+OPC clusters are high-energy ball milled with a second OPC mixture at second ball milling conditions to form a ball milled Si+OPC mixture wherein the Si+OPC clusters are injected into OPC particles. The ball milled Si+OPC mixture is treated at carbon shell formation conditions to convert OPC to carbon shells and to form Si nanostructured particles coated with a carbon shell. The Si core of the Si nanostructured particles coated with a carbon shell are chemically etched under chemical etching conditions to generate engineering voids in the shape of nano-channels inside the carbon shell and to form Si micro-reactors.

Inventor: HULL KATHERINE LEIGH
IPC: G01N33/24
Filed: 2019-02-19
Abstract: A rock sample is nano-indented from a surface of the rock sample to a specified depth less than a thickness of the rock sample. While nano-indenting, multiple depths from the surface to the specified depth and multiple loads applied to the sample are measured. From the multiple loads and the multiple depths, a change in load over a specified depth is determined, using which an energy associated with nano-indenting rock sample is determined. From a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) image of the nano-indented rock sample, an indentation volume is determined responsive to nano-indenting, and, using the volume, an energy density is determined. It is determined that the energy density associated with the rock sample is substantially equal to energy density of a portion of a subterranean zone in a hydrocarbon reservoir. In response, the physical properties of the rock sample are assigned to the portion of the subterranean zone.

Inventor: NAWANA NAMAL
IPC: B82Y15/00
Filed: 2019-05-24
Abstract: In one aspect, the present teachings provide a sensor for detecting troponin, e.g., cardiac troponin in a patient's blood, that relies on an electronic signature generated via interaction of troponin with an anti-troponin antibody. More specifically, as discussed in more detail below, such a sensor can include a graphene layer disposed on an underlying substrate, where the graphene layer has been functionalized with an anti-troponin antibody. The interaction of troponin in a sample, e.g., a patient's blood, with the anti-troponin antibody coupled, e.g., anchored, to the graphene substrate, can modulate an electronic property of the underlying graphene layer. The modulation of the electronic property of the graphene layer can be measured and used to identify, and in some embodiments quantify, troponin in the sample.

Title: Efficient egomotion estimation using patch based projected correlation
Inventor: HORVATH ANDRAS
IPC: G06T7/13
Filed: 2019-08-07
Abstract: A method for improving computational efficiency for egomotion estimation includes detecting a pair of consecutive images, and estimating a rotation angle and a two dimensional translation vector that best models the motion between the image frames. The pair of images are each divided into overlapping image patches, and then an efficient projected correlation approach is used to estimate a local two dimensional translation vector for each image patch. The translation vectors from all the patches form a vector field, and then trimmed-mean method is used to robustly and efficiently estimate the rotation angle and the two dimensional translation that best models the egomotion of the detector, which may be a camera.

Title: Vaccines with enhanced immune response and methods for their preparation
Inventor: PHILIP RAMILA
IPC: G01N33/569
Filed: 2019-09-07
Abstract: Although numerous investigations are focused on developing vaccines that induce protective humoral responses, fewer studies are aimed at developing vaccines that induce broad and robust T cell responses. In order to design a potent T cell based vaccine, two critical components are needed: the identity of specific T cell epitopes and an optimized vaccine formulation capable of delivering the antigens and the adjuvants simultaneously. Previously, we have identified and characterized HLA-A2 and A24 binding conserved epitopes and have characterized the feasibility of epitope based vaccine for dengue infection. Using these T cell epitopes and N acetyl glucosamine incorporated into a calcium phosphate nanoparticle (CaPNP) delivery system as the model, we studied efficacy of such CTL vaccine. The present disclosure describes such a CTL vaccine utilizing such combination.. Evaluating the immunogenicity of CaPNP/Dengue peptides formulation in-vitro and in-vivo in HLA-transgenic mice demonstrates that the CaPNP vaccine is immunologically relevant to induce T cellresponses against all four serotypes of dengue virus infection. This formulation is simple, has a low investment manufacturing process, and is stable at room temperature in a lyophilized form, further reducing the manufacturing time and costs. Further, the formulation is a candidate for the development of effective multi-serotype specific dengue virus vaccine to be used as prophylactic vaccine to prevent dengue infection in non-infected healthy individuals, and has the potential to be used as a therapeutic vaccine in already infected individuals, to minimize the antibody mediated complications caused by secondary infections.

Abstract: An electronic device (100) places an augmented reality object (115) in an image of a real environment based on a pose of the electronic device and based on image segmentation. The electronic device includes a camera (102) that captures images of the real environment and sensors (106), such as an inertial measurement unit (IMU), that capture a pose of the electronic device. The electronic device selects an augmented reality (AR) object (115) from a memory, segments a captured image of the real environment into foreground pixels and background pixels, and composites an image for display (118) wherein the AR object is placed between the foreground pixels and the background pixels. As the pose of the electronic device changes, the electronic device maintains the relative position of the AR object with respect to the real environment in images for display.
