Surface Modification Of Polymer Surface Using Ion Beam Irradiation

View page
US Patent:
20080026329, Jan 31, 2008
Filed:
Jul 23, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/781476
Inventors:
Ashkan Vaziri - Cambridge MA, US
Myoung-Woon Moon - Seoul, KR
Sang Hoon Lee - Seoul, KR
Jeong Yun Sun - JeonNam, KR
Kyu Hwan Oh - Seoul, KR
International Classification:
G03C 5/00
US Classification:
430322
Abstract:
A system and method for producing a plurality of controlled surface irregularities, such as wrinkles, is provided. The system includes a polymeric substrate. An irradiation source is positioned to provide a beam on desired areas of the polymeric substrate. The surface irregularities appear on the exposed region by controlling the relative motion of the polymeric substrate and the irradiation source when scanning the exposed region.

Ambulatory System For Measuring And Monitoring Physical Activity And Risk Of Falling And For Automatic Fall Detection

US Patent:
8206325, Jun 26, 2012
Filed:
Oct 12, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/249948
Inventors:
Bijan Najafi - Highland Park IL, US
Ashkan Vaziri - Brookline MA, US
Ali-Reza Boloori - Ann Arbor MI, US
Assignee:
Biosensics, L.L.C. - Brookline MA
International Classification:
A61B 5/103
A61B 5/117
G01P 15/00
G01C 9/00
G01C 17/00
G01C 19/00
US Classification:
600595, 600587, 702141, 702150, 702152, 702153
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a light-weight, small and portable ambulatory sensor for measuring and monitoring a person's physical activity. Based on these measurements and computations, the invented system quantifies the subject's physical activity, quantifies the subject's gait, determines his or her risk of falling, and automatically detects falls. The invention combines the features of portability, high autonomy, and real-time computational capacity. High autonomy is achieved by using only accelerometers, which have low power consumption rates as compared with gyroscope-based systems. Accelerometer measurements, however, contain significant amounts of noise, which must be removed before further analysis. The invention therefore uses novel time-frequency filters to denoise the measurements, and in conjunction with biomechanical models of human movement, perform the requisite computations, which may also be done in real time.

Programmable Elastic Metamaterials

US Patent:
20180348025, Dec 6, 2018
Filed:
Apr 15, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/562327
Inventors:
- Boston MA, US
Ashkan Vaziri - Cambridge MA, US
International Classification:
G01D 21/00
F03G 7/06
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide programmable materials capable of real-time, significant adjustment in their mechanical response. When combined with autonomous sensing and control strategies, these materials can be used in a new series of structural components with enhanced static and dynamic efficiency. An embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus comprising an array of one or more unit cells, formed from a material, each cell defining a shape; and links coupled to the unit cells, at least a subset of the links enabling changing of an elasticity of at least a subset of the unit cells or at least a sub- array of the unit cells as a function of a state of the at least a subset of the links, the state including ON and OFF states.
