Abstract: A sensor suitable for in vivo implantation has a capacitive circuit and a three-dimensional inductor coil connected to the capacitive circuit to form an LC circuit. The LC circuit is hermetically encapsulated within an electrically insulating housing. An electrical characteristic of the LC circuit is responsive to a change in an environmental parameter.

Abstract: A pressure cavity is durable, stable, and biocompatible and configured in such a way that it constitutes pico to nanoliter-scale volume. The pressure cavity is hermetically sealed from the exterior environment while maintaining the ability to communicate with other devices. Micromachined, hermetically-sealed sensors are configured to receive power and return information through direct electrical contact with external electronics. The pressure cavity and sensor components disposed therein are hermetically sealed from the ambient in order to reduce drift and instability within the sensor. The sensor is designed for harsh and biological environments, e.g. intracorporeal implantation and in vivo use. Additionally, novel manufacturing methods are employed to construct the sensors.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a restraint comprising a buckle (200) configured to secure a latch (120) when said latch (120) is engaged with said buckle (200). The restraint also comprises complementary locks (280a, 280b) associated with said buckle (200) that are configured to prevent release of said latch (120) from engagement with said buckle (200) in a first position and to allow release of said latch from engagement with said buckle in a second position. The restraint further comprises an electro-magnet (385) associated with said buckle (200) and said locks (280a, 280b), said electro-magnet (385) being configured to prevent said locks (280a, 280b) from being moved from said second position when said electro-magnet (385) is in a first state and to allow said locks (280a, 280b) to be moved in a second state, said first state being determined through activation of a remote activator (530).
