Title: Computer assisted analysis of sleep
IPC: G06Q50/00
Filed: 1990-12-12
Abstract: A computerized apparatus for assisting an operator in analyzing physiological signals occurring during sleep and in scoring the stages of sleep. To teach the computer system how to analyze the physiological signals and for scoring the stages of sleep, the operator establishes initial values of parameters that distinguish events in the recorded data. Events in a portion of the recorded data are then identified using the initial parameters and the results of this identification are displayed for the operator's review. The operator then classifies the events into those that have been identified correctly and those that have been identified incorrectly. Using this event classification, the computer then adjusts the parameters to conform with the correctly identified events. Alternatively, the operator enters selected physical characteristics about a subject, e.g. the subject's age, sex, etc. These physical characteristics are then used to retrieve an initial protocol from a library of previously recorded protocols. Data recorded for the physiological signals is then scored using this initial protocol after which a second protocol is then retrieved from the protocol library based upon the results of scoring with the initial protocol. Various display formats provided by the computer program allow an operator to review the computer assisted sleep analysis in numerous different ways and to associate textual comments with epochs in the data.

IPC: A63H3/28
Filed: 1991-01-17
Abstract: A character animation method and apparatus for the animation of toy characters and the like is disclosed. In accordance with the method, a voice track is recorded on one track of a dual track recording device, typically a tape recorder.

A character is provided having a tape playback unit therein for playing back such prerecorded dual track tapes, the character having an amplifier and speaker for reproducing the audio information, and a servo motor (24) having a drive system for driving the character mouth elements (52, 54) and eyes (46) with the desired animation, the drive system having a feedback device thereon for providing a feedback signal to the servo motor control. The electronics in the character which is responsive to the animation control signal provided by the playback unit to provide the servo motor drive signal effectively updates the servo motor drive signal on each cycle of the animation control signal received from the playback unit.

Title: Profilometer stylus assembly insensitive to vibration.
Inventor: WHEELER WILLIAM R
IPC: G01B21/30
Filed: 1993-09-30
Abstract: A stylus profilometer having a counterbalanced stylus with a motion transducer using a vane (41) moving between parallel, spaced-apart, conductive plates (35 and 37) which damp the motion of the vane by means of trapped air. The vane forms an electrode with the plates so that the combination is a pair of capacitors in a balanced bridge arrangement. Motion of the stylus causes an unbalance of the bridge indicative of the extent of stylus motion. A lever arm (59) associated with the stylus has a tip (57) influenced by a magnetic field which biases the stylus or controls force on a surface to be measured. The entire assembly has a very low moment of inertia to reduce the effects of vibration on the stylus and thereby increase resolution of the device and reduce damage to the substrate.

Abstract: This is a surgical instrument designed to reduce damage to surrounding tissue while fragmenting tissue intended to be removed. The instrument includes a fragmenting tip (14C) connected to a hand piece (10C) by an aspirating tube (18C). The tip (14C) is rotated by a rotational motor (40D) and reciprocated ultrasonically by an ultrasonic vibrator (40C) simultaneously so that tissue is fragmented by the combined motion of a fragmenting surface perpendicular to the surface and at an angle to the surface during rotation. The method can be used for example in cataract removal surgery where the lens is fragmented and removed without damaging the capsular wall or during bypass surgery for freeing the artery or vein to be transplanted without damaging the artery or vein walls.

La composante réelle de prédistorsion peut être produite par un TEC configuré comme résistance commandée en tension ou par la combinaison parallèle d'une diode et d'une résistance reliées en série avec le chemin de signal. On utilise également un circuit séparé comprenant des diodes antiparallèles et des éléments réactifs servant à générer une prédistorsion de troisième ordre dépendant de la fréquence.

Title: An integrated circuit having enable control circuitry
Inventor: ROOHPARVAR FARIBORZ F
IPC: G11C7/22
Filed: 1996-06-24
Abstract: A circuit which responds to an external standby command (a transition in a chip enable signal from an external device) by generating a delayed internal standby signal. The internal standby signal functions by switching selected components of the circuit (such as address buffers) from an active mode to a standby mode. In preferred embodiments, the circuit is a memory circuit implemented as an integrated circuit. The amount of the delay in generating the delayed internal standby signal is selected to achieve a desired decreased average response time to a sequence of commands (such as memory access commands) without excessive power consumption. In embodiments in which the circuit is a memory chip (such as a flash memory chip) having address access time in the range from 60 ns to 80 ns, the delay typically is from about 100 ns to about 200 ns. In some embodiments, the circuit generates two internal standby signals, one delayed relative to the other, in response to an external standby command (a first type of transition in a chip enable signal from an external device). In these embodiments, a first component receives the delayed internal standby signal (and enters a standby mode in response) and a second component receives the non-delayed internal standby signal (and enters a standby mode in response). In response to an external enable command (a second type of transition in the chip enable signal from the external device), the circuit generates two internal enable signals which enable the first and second components substantially simultaneously.

IPC: A61F2/958
Filed: 1999-07-29
Abstract: Expandable laser catheters (10) for utilizing laser energy to remove obstructions (36) from body passages (34) are described. In one embodiment, the laser catheter includes a shaftway (12) having a distal end (18) including a flexible portion (20) configured in a series of radial folds. Multiple optical fibers (30), configured to transmit laser energy, extend along the shaftway and are attached to the flexible portion. An inflatable, ring-shaped balloon (22) is attached to the catheter (10) within the flexible portion (20). In use, the catheter (10) is inserted into a body passage (34) such as an artery, and advanced until the distal end (18) is adjacent to an obstruction. The balloon (22) is inflated to expand the flexible portion (20) and to bring the optical fibers (30) nearer the inner wall of the body passage. Laser energy is directed by the optical fibers (30) toward targeted regions of the obstruction (36). As the catheter is advanced and the process repeated, a core (50) is formed from the obstruction (36) and contained within the flexible portion (20). The flexible portion (20) is then contracted to hold the core (50), and the core (50) is removed from the body passage (34) by withdrawing the catheter (10).
