Abstract: An apparatus for extracting bodily fluid (e.g., whole blood) from a user's finger includes a housing with a lancing mechanism and a clamping mechanism attached to thereto. The clamping mechanism includes a lower arm assembly and an upper arm assembly. The upper and lower arm assemblies are operatively connected such that when a user's finger applies a user force to the lower arm assembly and displaces the lower arm assembly from a first to a second position, the upper and lower arm assemblies cooperate to engage the user's finger with a compressive force that is greater than the user force. In addition, the lancing mechanism is configured to lance a target site on the user's finger while the upper and lower arm assemblies are cooperating to engage the user's finger. Thereafter, the compressive force serves to extract a bodily fluid sample from the lanced target site.

IPC: G01S13/89
Filed: 2005-12-19
Abstract: A method and apparatus of Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) detection results in optimal detection in the Neyman Pearson sense independent of the type of the input data. The whole system consists three major blocks: pre-processing block, data fusion block and adaptive multi-CFAR detection block. For any kind of input data, various appropriate data processing techniques could be chosen and applied in parallel in the pro-processing unit for the purpose of enhancing Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and fusion. The SNRs of the output data from the pre-processing block will be compared and the top couples will be transmitted to the data fusion block for further SNR enhancement by performing appropriate data fusion technique. The adaptive multi-CFAR detector will then be applied at the last stage to get the final decision.   In the application of this system on hyperspectral data, a new Transform Based Matched Filter (TBMF) detection algorithm is proposed in the pre-processing unit. The TBMF  algorithm employs a transformation before the traditional matched filter to make the background subspace and target subspace orthogonal, hence enhance the detection performance of the matched filter algorithm.
