20080287316 | Screening arrangement for screening immunoassay tests and agglutination tests - A screening device for performing an immunoassay test to detect the presence of a compound in a body fluid. The device includes a holder for removably receiving a membrane to which the fluid has been applied. A light is directed to the membrane. A photodetector measures the concentration of the light reflected back from the membrane. Specifically, the concentrations of reflected light from a control zone and a test zone are measured. Signals representative of the measured light concentrations are applied to a processor. If a specified concentration of predetermined light from a control zone on the membrane is detected, the processor considers the test to be successful. In the test is successful, the processor, based upon the measured concentration of reflected light from the test zone, generates data representative of the presence of the compound. | 11-20-2008 |

20150258694 | Laser Centering of Robotic Arm - In a system and method of working tubes coupled to a tubesheet having a number of holes, wherein each hole in fluid communication with one of the tubes, an end-effector is positioned by a robot in coarse or rough alignment with a first hole in the tubesheet. Via lasers positioned on the end-effector, laser spots are formed on a surface of the tubesheet adjacent the first hole. The laser spots are detected by a camera and the alignment of the end-effector relative to the first hole in the tubesheet is refined via the robot based on the detected pattern of laser spots. The tool is then moved into the tube that is in fluid communication with the first hole in the tubesheet to work on (inspect, plug, sleeve or weld) the tube. | 09-17-2015 |

20160092038 | SEMI-MODAL INTERACTION BLOCKER - Embodiments can provide interactivity to one or more components (e.g., windows, dialog boxes, tool bar, etc.) in a visual analyzer application while blocking interactivity for other components displayed on a GUI of the application. A contribution mechanism can be leveraged where a broadcast message can be sent to various components displayed on the GUI of the application. The various components within the application can then indicate whether they would like to be kept interactive during a triggering event (e.g., upon selection of a certain component). Upon receiving the indication that the components would like to remain interactive, the application allows those components to remain interactive while preventing access to other components in the GUI. | 03-31-2016 |
