Abstract: A hand-held bioanalytic instrument is described that can perform massively parallel sample analysis including single-molecule gene sequencing. The instrument includes a pulsed optical source that produces ultrashort excitation pulses and a compact beam-steering assembly. The beam-steering assembly provides automated alignment of excitation pulses to an interchangeable bio-optoelectronic chip that contains tens of thousands of reaction chambers or more. The optical source, beam-steering assembly, bio-optoelectronic chip, and coupling optics register to an alignment structure in the instrument that can form at least one wall of an enclosure and dissipate heat.

Abstract: A gas and vapor analyzer system and method of detecting a gas or vapor sample are provided. An FTIR spectroscopy system of an analyzer system comprises an interferometer adapted to modulate an excitation signal. A gas cell is adapted to receive the modulated excitation signal and focus the modulated excitation signal within the gas cell via an input lens. An off-axis multiple reflection geometry is adapted to receive the focused modulated excitation signal and pass the focused modulated excitation signal through a gas or vapor phase specimen via a plurality of beam paths skewed relative to a longitudinal axis of the cell to generate an optical sample signal. An exit lens is adapted to direct the optical sample signal from the gas cell to an IR radiation detector, and a controller is adapted to identify a detected gas and vapor sample based on the optical sample signal.

Abstract: A whole blood filtration device is provided with a filter membrane separating a feeding volume and a clean side of the filter membrane from each other. The feeding volume communicates with a first feeding side opening and with a second feeding side opening. The filter membrane has pores with a pore size that ensures permeability of the filter membrane to blood plasma/serum and that retains blood cells. The first feeding side opening can be coupled to a first blood pump for feeding blood from the first feeding side opening into the feeding volume so that blood plasma/serum permeates the filter membrane and blood cells, retained by the filter membrane, exit from the feeding volume through the second feeding side opening.

Abstract: There is presented a system and method for detecting mobile device fault conditions, particularly detecting defects in a display or housing of a mobile device. One or more cameras included within the mobile device are used with a reflecting surface in a test fixture to obtain properly aligned and formatted images of the external housing and display of the mobile device, and interactive guidance assists with placement and execution of diagnostics. A remote server conducts further analysis of the captured images, and then defect status may be returned to and displayed upon the mobile device screen.

Abstract: Gas sensors are disclosed having an on-board, low-power data processor that uses multivariable gas classification and/or gas quantitation models to perform on-board data processing to resolve two or more gases in a fluid sample. To reduce computational complexity, the gas sensor utilizes low-power-consumption multivariable data analysis algorithms, inputs from available on-board sensors of ambient conditions, inputs representing contextual data, and/or excitation responses of a gas sensing material to select suitable gas classification and/or gas quantitation models. The data processor can then utilize these gas classification and quantitation models, in combination with measured dielectric responses of a gas sensing material of the gas sensor, to determine classifications and/or concentrations of two or more gases in a fluid sample, while consuming substantially less power than would be consumed if a global comprehensive model were used instead. Thus, the data processor is utilized for linear, nonlinear, and non-monotonic multivariate regressions.

Abstract: Example methods are provided to improve placement of an adaptor (210,220) to a mobile computing device (100) to measure a test strip (221) coupled to the adaptor (220) with a camera (104) and a screen (108) on a face of the mobile computing device (100). The method may include displaying a light area on a first portion of the screen (108). The first portion may be adjacent to the camera (104). The light area and the camera (104) may be aligned with a key area of the test strip (221) so that the camera (104) is configured to capture an image of the key area. The method may further include providing first guiding information for a user to place the adaptor (210,220) to the mobile computing device (100) according to a position of the light area on the screen (108).
