Title: Touch free loading system for an automatic in-bay vehicle wash system
Inventor: JONES ALLEN S
IPC: B60S3/04
Filed: 2001-05-04
Abstract: A vehicle loading system for the wash bay of an automatic vehicle wash system (10) that eliminates the use of a floor-mounted target to capture the front tire of the vehicle (22) to be washed. The vehicle wash system (10) includes a pair of side position sensors (32; 34) that detect and create a side profile of the vehicle as the vehicle enters into the wash bay. The vehicle wash system includes a front sensor array that includes a plurality of through-beam sensors (42-46) that detect the front bumper of a vehicle operator to stop when the front bumper is in the correct position. An overhead sensor contained on the overhead sensor (38) contained on the overhead gantry (20) detects the top profile of the vehicle positioned within the open wash bay. A control unit (35) receives the information from the variety of sensors and operates the overhead gantry (20) based upon the detected parameters of the vehicle.

Title: A method for detecting biomarkers
Inventor: LUBOCKI ISER
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2001-12-24
Abstract: In order to rapidly detect biomarkers of diseases, biological material is subject to laser beam irradiation of a particular wavelength and the surface enhanced Raman scattered light spectroscopic data returned from the material provides data which is characteristic of the molecules in the irradiated material. The spectral data is compared with reference spectral data obtained from laser irradiation of the same wavelength applied to known materials carrying the marker to be detected to provide a diagnosis of the presence or absence of the biomarkers of disease of the biological material. The quantity of the biomarkers in the sample under investigation is also determined from the scattered light.
