20090036787 | FETAL SURVEILLANCE - Fetal behavior is monitored by receiving ECG data from a set of electrodes attached to a material body. A waveform pre-processor identifies a succession of fetal ECG complex waveforms within the received data and a waveform processor determines differences in the processor succession of fetal ECG complex waveforms over time. An event logger determines from the determined differences a number of fetal movements during the period of time. Fetal spatial presentation and/or position within the uterus may also be determined from fetal ECG data acquired from a plurality of electrodes positioned on the maternal abdomen in a predetermined configuration. A number of fetal ECG complex waveforms are identified within the data, and each of the waveforms is compared with a set of predetermined fetal ECG complex templates ascribed to the predetermined electrode configuration to determine a template that best matches the identified fetal ECG waveforms. | 02-05-2009 |

20160030967 | Systems and Methods for Underwater Wireless Radio-Frequency Communications - A fountain system and method of providing same is provided. This involves a plurality of communication nodes, each communication node being configured to operate when submerged in a liquid; and a plurality of fountain components for providing a plurality of fountain jets of liquid, each fountain component being linked to a communication node in the plurality of communication nodes and being operable to provide a fountain jet of liquid in the plurality of fountain jets of liquid. The plurality of communication nodes are operable to receive a plurality of fountain control signals transmitted through the liquid. The plurality of communication nodes are operable to control the plurality of fountain jets by communicating to each communication node in the plurality of communication nodes an associated fountain control signal for controlling the fountain component linked to that communication node. The plurality of fountain control signals are transmitted at a frequency in the range of 100 MHz to 1.2 GH. | 02-04-2016 |

20090089034 | Surgical Planning - A method, apparatus and computer program code for automatically planning at least a part of a surgical procedure to be carried out on a body part of a patient are described. A virtual model of the body part is provided, in which the model has data associated with it representing at least a part of a planned surgical procedure. The virtual model is then morphed to the body part using data derived from the patient's real body part thereby also adapting the part of the planned surgical procedure to reflect the anatomy of the patient's real body part. | 04-02-2009 |
20120155734 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REGISTERING TWO MEDICAL IMAGES - An embodiment of the invention provides a method and apparatus for registering two medical images with one another. A first medical image including a representation of a biological organ of a subject or for a population is obtained and the surface of the organ is identified in the first medical image. The identified surface is then used to construct a 3D geometric surface model of the organ. The geometric model is used to derive a motion model that incorporates information on the physical material properties of the organ and external forces that cause the organ to move and deform. A second medical image including a representation of the organ of the subject (or another subject, in the case that the first medical image is an atlas image) is obtained and an alignment is determined between a first surface normal vector field for the organ surface, derived from the geometric model, and a second surface normal vector field for the organ surface, derived by filtering the second medical image. The alignment accommodates deformation of the geometric model in accordance with the motion predicted by the motion model. The first and second medical images can then be registered with one another based on said determined model-to-image vector alignment (MIVA). | 06-21-2012 |

20160037252 | AUDIO FILTERS UTILIZING SINE FUNCTIONS - A method of digitally filtering an audio signal using an adjusted audio filter. The adjusted audio filter is represented by an impulse response including a waveform in its time domain represented by a sine function of absolute values. A composite audio filter is derived from two adjusted audio filters although any number of filters may be used. The composite audio filter generally includes a bank of the filters which together define a frequency bandwidth representative of the audio signal or spectrum to be filtered. Also a bandpass filter is constructed by combining frequency responses for sine components of absolute values integrated from 0 to bpf and sine components of absolute values integrated from 1/bpf to 0. The frequency response may be the sum of the frequency responses for each of the filters used to create the composite bandpass filter. | 02-04-2016 |
