    摘要: A sensor is provided. The sensor includes a planar sensing area including a sensor layout. The sensor layout includes an interior portion, an edge portion, and edges. The sensor layout also includes interior sensing elements, the interior sensing elements being located in the interior portion, and edge sensing elements, the edge sensing elements being located in the edge portion. The interior sensing elements are arranged in the sensor layout such that the interior sensing elements generally do not extend beyond a predetermined distance from the edges. Moreover, the edge sensing elements are arranged to extend beyond the predetermined distance and interlace with the interior sensing elements in the interior portion. The sensor further includes a controller and a connector, the connector coupling the planar sensing area to the controller.

    摘要: A device and method for forming a tubular braid comprising a plurality of filaments. The braiding machine comprises a disc with a mandrel extending from the center in a perpendicular direction and a plurality of catch mechanisms arranged circumferentially around the edge of the disc. A plurality of filaments are temporarily affixed to the mandrel, each filament extending from the mandrel toward the edge of the disc and engaging the edge of the disc at a discrete point of engagement The plurality of catch mechanisms are attached to actuators adapted to move the catch mechanisms in a generally radial direction relative to the edge of the disc to allow the catch mechanism to engage a subset of the filaments and move the engaged filaments beyond the circumferential edge of the disc.

    摘要: An electronic appliance including a processor and a computer-readable medium, having instructions for execution by a processor is provided. The instructions causing the processor to perform methods to obtain an error map for locations in a touch sensor. The method including inputting a geometry for a touch sensor layout; inputting coordinates for centroids of sensing elements in the touch sensor layout; and inputting a touch geometry. The method includes the steps of selecting a plurality of test points on the touch sensor layout; generating, a calculated touch location for each of the plurality of test points; and an error map from the calculated touch locations and the test points. The method may include generating an error measure from the error map; displaying, the generated error map and the generated error measure; and adjusting the geometry for the touch sensor layout if the error measure is larger than a tolerance value.

    摘要: A stent is differentially coated to accommodate areas of high strain. A therapeutic coating is applied to only those areas of the stent that do not experience high strain. This allows a therapeutic coating to be chosen for its elution characteristics, for example, rather than for its ability to withstand high strain. An elastic coating may be applied to the areas of high strain. The elastic coating may or may not include a therapeutic agent.
