20130292239 | CAPACITIVE PROXIMITY AND/OR CONTACT SWITCH - A capacitive proximity and/or contact switch includes a cover plate having an upper side and an underside. The upper side provides a sensitive area of the switch and the cover plate, at least in the region of the sensitive area, is at least partially non-conductive. A conductive sensor face is disposed at a distance from the underside of the cover plate. The dielectric system of this capacitive proximity and/or contact switch is formed of the cover plate, at least one non-conductive element facing towards the sensor face and at least one conductive element between the cover plate and the non-conductive element. | 11-07-2013 |

20100222663 | NON-INVASIVE PNEUMOTHORAX DETECTION AND APPARATUS - Provided is a micropower impulse radar (MIR) pneumothorax detector. The detector includes a processor and a handheld MIR scanner. The handheld MIR scanner includes a device housing, an antenna located within the device housing, circuitry that generates MIR signals, and circuitry that processes received echoes of the MIR signals and provides the processed received echoes to the processor. The processor automatically determines whether a pneumothorax is present based on the processed received echoes of the MIR signals. | 09-02-2010 |

20090059881 | WIRELESS NETWORK SELF-ADAPTIVE LOAD BALANCER - A load balancer is provided for balancing distribution of wireless clients among wireless access points. The load balancer includes a tracking implementation for tracking at least one telemetry parameter of each wireless client's wireless link with each respective wireless access point. A goal implementation is included for comparing one or more telemetry parameter against at least one predetermined goal to obtain a fitness measure. A control implementation is also provided for varying the operation of at least one of the respective wireless access points and wireless clients in response to the fitness measure, so as to balance the distribution of load among the respective wireless access points. | 03-05-2009 |

20130150711 | NON-INVASIVE MEDICAL CONDITION MONITORING APPARATUS - Embodiments of the present invention may provide a detector device including a communication interface to couple the detection device to an external antenna device. The detector device may detect medical condition(s) by performing a reference scan and a subsequent target scan. The target scan may be compared to the reference scan, and deviations from the reference scan may indicate the presence of the medical condition(s). According to embodiments of the present invention, the detection device may continuously monitor for medical condition(s) by performing an initial reference scan and subsequent target scans. Each target scan may be compared to the reference scan, and deviations from the reference scan may indicate the presence of the medical condition(s) or a change in the medical condition(s). | 06-13-2013 |
