Title: Method for production of single- and multi-layer microcapsules
Inventor: PRIVALOV OLGA
IPC: A23L33/00
Filed: 2006-08-22
Granted: 2012-07-05
Abstract: The present invention provides methods for microencapsulation of active ingredients for topical application, whereby single-layer and multi-layer, preferably double-layer, microcapsules, are obtained. The microcapsules protect the active ingredients, maintain their original activity throught processing, formulation and storage, and enable controlled release of the active ingredient only upon application onto the skin. The microcapsules consist of a cone made of an encapsulated active ingredient and one or more shells of the same of different wall-forming polymer. The microencapsulation methods of the present invention are based on the solvent removal method.

Title: Intraocular lens for correcting corneal coma
Inventor: ARTAL PABLO
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 2006-10-26
Granted: 2013-07-04
Abstract: When fitting a patient for an intraocular lens, a series of measurements is taken on the patient's eye that determines a required lens power. Next, a range of preferred shape factors may be found, which determine the base (i.e., spherical) radii of the two lens surfaces, essentially independent of the lens power. The preferred shape factor adjusts the third-order coma of the lens to largely offset the coma of the cornea, so that the image at the retina has a reduced amount of third-order coma. Once a preferred shape factor is determined, the base radii of curvature of the anterior and posterior surfaces are determined from the shape factor and the lens power by algebraic formulas. Finally, one or more aspheric terms are added to one or both of the surfaces in the lens, so that the spherical aberration of the lens largely offsets the spherical aberration of the cornea.

Abstract: INTERACTIVE INTELLIGENT TOY The present invention is directed to an interactive intelligent toy that provides the appearance and experience of a person, animal, vehicle, or other character moving in, and/or interacting with, its environment or habitat on its own. In one embodiment, a motive component simulating the appearance of a person, animal, vehicle or other character comprises a drive mechanism to move the motive component, a control mechanism and a power source. The control mechanism is programmed to monitor and detect user and event inputs, and to detect and decode embedded codes in a pathway component and perform predetermined actions or generate predetermined sounds in response to the inputs and codes. In another embodiment, the motive component engages with a coupling component and supplies the drive mechanism and power source for moving both the motive component and the coupling component. In yet another embodiment, the motive component is adapted to perform certain actions upon contact with, or becoming in proximity to, an auxiliary component. The invention therefore provides a simulated character that appears to have a mind of its own in operating within a certain environment. Given that the intelligent element is able to supply the means (drive mechanism, control mechanism and power source) to enable other elements to perform actions, the cost of the toy can be minimized while providing a large variety of different activities and the ability to expand to new environments and activities. |10 30
