Abstract: A filamentous vaso-occlusive implant device includes an elongate, flexible outer member, preferably a microcoil, arranged coaxially around at least one inner member. When the outer member is subjected to axial tension, it elongates axially, while it simultaneously contracts radially. The radial contraction is resisted by the inner member, which thereby limits the elongation of the outer member so that its elastic limit is not exceeded. Therefore, permanent streching or deformation of the outer member is not permitted. An obturator tip is advantageously provided at the distal end of the device, and a coupling element for detachable attachment of the device to a delivery mechanism is advantageously attached to the proximal end of the device. The inner member may be a microcoil, a hollow tube, a solid filament, a spiral cut tube, a slotted tube, or a tubular braid, and it may be provided with a bioactive agent.

Abstract: A computerized method of video analysis that includes receiving several series of video frames generated by a number of image sensors. Each image sensor has its own field-of-view which can, but does not have to, overlap with another image sensor's field-of-view. The image sensors monitor a portion of a monitored environment. The computerized method also includes concurrently tracking, independent of calibration, multiple objects within the monitored environment as the objects move between fields-of-view, and multiple objects within one field-of-view. The tracking is based on the plurality of received series of video frames.

Abstract: A direct conversion receiver (200) includes a detector (230) that provides a measure of bias offset that is caused by component mismatches in the direct conversion mixer (250), and a corrective network (240) that reduces the bias offset based on this measure. The direct conversion mixer (250) demodulates a radio-frequency (RF) input signal via mixing with a local-oscillator (LO) signal to provide a differential baseband output signal. A differential peak detector compares the peak signal value at each side of the mixer's differential output, and a differential integrator (245) averages the difference between these peak signal values to provide the measure of bias offset. The corrective network (240) adds a correction offset to each of the local oscillator paths on each of the switching pairs that provide the differential output, but opposite to the local oscillator connections.
