摘要:
A system uses an antenna at a portal, the antenna coupled to equipment which can send and receive information to and from radio tags, each having a unique identity. The equipment detects, for example, a tag attached to an asset. The equipment looks to see if an associated badge is in the detection area of the portal. If the badge and asset match, the user bearing the badge is permitted to exit the portal. Otherwise the user is not permitted to exit the portal. An asset such as a ski can be equipped with such a tag, the tag in this case being a low-frequency tag. The low-frequency tag permits locating the ski even if it is not visible because it is under snow.

Activities of individuals and the movements/usage of products are monitored in an operating room during a surgical procedure by disposing in the operating room a first transceiver operating in a long wavelength mode in which 99.99% or more of radiated energy is in the form of a magnetic field, for example 131 KHz. A distinguishable radio frequency-enabled identification tag is associated with each of a plurality of persons assigned to the surgical procedure, including for example, doctors, nurses, and/or the patient, and optionally with products to be monitored. A signal is transmitted from the first transceiver and responses from the identification tags are monitored. A log is created from the monitored responses indicative activities of each of the persons in the operating room or of movements of tagged products.

At least one embodiment is directed to a system (1100) to generate an orthopedic dynamic data repository and registry (2214). The system (1100) can measure a parameter of the muscular-skeletal system and align at least one of the surfaces to a mechanical axis. The system (1100) comprises disposable sensors (1106), disposable targets (1110), lasers (1114), a processing unit (1122), a display (1124), a reader (1120), a receiver (1118), spacer blocks (1102), and a distractor 1104. The sensors (1106) convert measured data to electronic digital form and are in communication with the processing unit (1122) to display, process, store, and send data to dynamic data repository and registry (2214). Parameters can be measured pre-operatively, intra-operatively, post-operatively, and long term using sensor (1106). A customer (2402) can receive measured data and analysis from dynamic data repository and registry (2214).

摘要:
The invention relates to optoelectronic modules for generating and/or receiving optical signals for use in fiber-optic communication systems, such as optical transponders or transceivers, having a reconfigurable control and status (C&S) interface with a host device. The optoelectronic module includes an electrical multi-pin host connector having a plurality of pins for communicating a plurality of digital C&S signals between the host and the module, functional hardware responsive to the digital control signals and comprising sensing means for generating digital status signals, and processing means formed by an FPGA and a processor for processing the digital C&S signals. The FPGA is disposed in communications paths between the host connector on one side, and the functional hardware and the processor on the other side, and programmed for routing each of the discrete C&S signals between the C&S pins of the host connector and the processor, and between the C&S pins and the functional hardware, thereby providing reconfigurability of said routing by downloading a different set of FPGA instructions.
