Patent GB-0008683-D0 (GB)
Title: Assay using porosity-reduction to inhibit migration
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 1999-10-01
Abstract: Device for assaying an analyte, comprising a labelling zone, where a label can bind to the analyte, in communication with a capture zone, wherein the pore size of the capture zone is such that label which is not bound to the analyte can migrate therethrough, whereas label which is bound to the analyte cannot. During migration from the labelling zone (large pore size) to the capture zone (small pore size), unbound label can pass into and through the capture zone, whereas bound label will be captured at the junction of the labelling zone and the capture zone. The device relies upon the label being smaller than the analyte, such that free label is not retarded by the capture zone. It is particularly suitable for assaying analytes such as spermatozoa, which are large in comparison with a label such as a labelled antibody.

Title: Tunable optical filter
IPC: G02B7/00
Filed: 2000-12-06
Abstract: A tuneable optical filter includes a moveable filter plate and an associated optical region for filtering an input radiation beam to provide corresponding filtered output radiation. The optical region has spatially varying filtration properties. Piezoelectric actuating elements are provided for moving the filter plate and its associated optical region relative to the beam for selecting a portion of the optical region for use in filtering the beam and thereby tuning the filter. The actuating elements are operable when driven by electrical signals to repetitively engage or be in repetitively slidable contact and thereby impart a lateral force to a surface of the filter plate for moving the optical region relative to the beam in at least one dimension. The filter is especially suitable for use in optical communication systems where there arises a need for occasional system reconfiguration involving retuning optical filters of the system.

Title: Robot head
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 2002-09-03
Abstract: A robot head, for example for use in surgery, provides a back-drivable system allowing a surgeon to closely control the position of a cutter or other tool. The cutter is mounted at the end of a telescopic arm (20) which can be rotated about two independent perpendicular axes. Rotation about each axis is controlled by a separate motor (30′) which turns a lead screw (32). A bearing (34) travels along the lead screw and changes the angle of an offset crank (36) to cause the required rotation about the axis. The current rotational position about each axis is determined by a sensor at the output. A second sensor independently determines the position of the corresponding motor (30) and the two measured positions are compared. If they differ, the power to the cutter is immediately switched off.
