IPC: G06T15/50
Filed: 2002-06-07
Abstract: A computer graphics system generates a pixel value for a pixel in an image, the pixel being representative of a point in a scene. The computer graphics system generates the pixel value by an evaluation of an integral of a select ed function. The computer graphics system comprises a sample point generator an d a function evaluator. The a sample point generator is configured to generate respective sets of sample points each associated with one of a series of ray s in a ray trace configured to have a plurality of trace levels. The ray at at least one level can be split into a plurality of rays, with each ray being associated with a ray instance identifier. The sample point generator is configured to generate the sample points as predetermined strictly- deterministic low-discrepancy sequence to which a selected rotation operator is applied recursively for the respective levels. The function evaluator is configured to generate a plurality of function values each representing an evaluation of the selected function at one of the sample points generated by the sample point generator and use the function values in generating the pix el value. In one embodiment, the selected rotation operator is the Cranley- Patterson rotation operator.

Title: Pipelined fft processor with memory address interleaving
Inventor: GRAUMANN PETER
IPC: G06F17/14
Filed: 2003-11-26
Abstract: A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) implementation providing a low hardware area butterfly is realized by assuming a one sample per cycle data acquisition rate with minimized adder/multiplier radix-2 butterflies. The use of such butterflies leads to optimization of on-board memory (reduced from 2N-2 to N-1 size) by implementation of a novel address generator which performs a memory interleaving operation through address permutation optimized by reference to known memory requirements.

Title: Automated system and method for processing specimens to extract samples for both liquid-based and slide-based testing
Inventor: PRESSMAN NORMAN J
IPC: B01F35/60
Filed: 2002-10-21
Abstract: Apparatus and method for processing specimens, e.g., biological specimens, to extract samples for both liquid (i.e., extracellular) and slide-based (i.e., intracellular) testing. Both types of samples can be obtained from a single fluid specimen. A fluid sampling station removes fluid from a specimen container and places it in a sample receptacle. A specimen acquisition station removes fluid from the container, separates particulate matter (e.g., cells) from the removed fluid, and forms a sample layer of particulate matter, which is transferred to a slide. The two sampling operations can be carried out in any order. The fluid sample receptacle may have a special one-way valve arrangement. The apparatus can be automated so as to process multiple fluid specimens in their respective containers. The machine according to this invention is a "platform instrument" that can produce all required liquid samples and slide-based samples for essentially all cytopathology tests.

The disposable cartridge includes a sampling module adapted to extract a bodily fluid sample and an analysis module adapted to measure an analyze (e.g., glucose) in the bodily fluid sample. The local controller module is in electronic communication with the disposable cartridge and is adapted to receive and store measurement data from the analysis module. An ISF extraction device includes a penetration member configured for penetrating and residing in a target site of a user's skin layer and, subsequently, extracting an ISF sample therefrom. The device also includes a pressure ring(s) adapted for applying pressure to the user's skin layer in the vicinity of the target site. The device is configured such that the pressure ring(s) is capable of applying pressure in an oscillating manner whereby an ISF glucose lag of the ISF sample extracted by the penetration member is mitigated. A method for extracting ISF includes providing an ISF fluid extraction device with a penetration member and a pressure ring(s). Next, a user's skin layer is contacted by the pressure ring(s) and penetrated by the penetration member. An ISF sample is then extracted from the user's skin layer while pressure is being applied in an oscillating manner by the pressure ring(s). The oscillating pressure mitigates an ISF glucose lag of the extracted ISF sample extracted.
