Abstract: Methods and apparatus for separating red blood cells by density are described. Older red blood cells are more dense than younger ones. Certain changes in the physiology are recorded in changes in hemoglobin or the red blood cells. By assaying different aged red blood cells, one can determine the historical physiological changes over a period of many weeks. Improved separation of red blood cells is accomplished by using rigid capillary tubes having an inner surface which augments the density equilibrium of red blood cells and/or incrementally increasing the centrifugation forces.

Abstract: A method of electronically measuring parameters of an beam in a raster scan system includes the steps of: 
choosing a predetermined pixel to be calibrated, moving a grid adjacent this pixel, strobing the beam, incrementally moving the beam toward an axis of the grid, and integrating the signal resulting from the beam as the beam moves toward the axis. The steps of strobing the beam, incrementally moving the beam, and integrating the signal are repeated until the beam crosses the axis. The value of the accumulated signals, provided for example by a charge amplifier, is used to determine the relative position of the axis of the grid. The value of the accumulated signals associated with another axis is also determined. The relative positions of the two axes determine the relative location of the grid. If the grid location is known, the location of an associated substrate which is typically adjacent the grid is also known.

Abstract: A system and method compensates for systematic irregularities in measured engine velocities caused by torsional flexing in the crankshaft during rotation to improve the accuracy of misfire detection. The present invention compensates for irregularities in "Profile-Ignition-Pick-Up interval" (PIP interval) timing. These irregularities are systematic with respect to different engine cylinders. The present invention is configured to function with a processor unit. Correction factors for each of the  n  PIP intervals of an engine cycle are generated for each of a multitude of engine operating conditions, where  n  is the number of cylinders in the engine. Each set of  n  generated correction factor is stored in a table (a "look-up table" located in a memory unit) having a corresponding unique address location. This table is typically determined empirically in the calibration of the engine type by a test engine. The correction factors are generated while the test engine is rotated at a fixed steady state operating point with combustion, where the operating point is typically a particular speed and load.
