Available Technologies by Category
Disposable Cassette for Dialysis	Efficient- designed to minimize human error and reduces set-up time of dialysis treatment Automated- enables automated dialysis mode selection using radio frequency identification Disposable- eliminates potential contamination in patient treatment	7111
Wearable Robotic Limb	The limb uses Artificial Intelligence and machine learning to understand what the user wants it to do and how to perform the required tasks in a changing environment The limb’s movements are modeled based on human motions and therefore operate smoothly and look natural. Proprietary multi-limb mounting design	7108
Grain Structure of Stainless Steel for Anti-Wetting Properties	Utilizes intrinsic grain structures of stainless steel to modify surface wettability More efficient fluid transport and reduced energy consumption Does not require the deposition of additional coatings	7096
Microfluidic Platform for High-Density Cell Delivery	Allows for hundreds of cells to be immobilized on a very small footprint- including non-adherent cells Can analyze cell response at a single-cell resolution Can simultaneously observe cell response and generate chemical cues- allows for observation of immediate cell response	5691
Methods for Generating Functional Therapeutic Cells	Novel – No present technology exists Versatile – Can be adapted to suit a variety of diseases, human and animal Targeted – Antigen-binding qualities within the B cell allow for highly specific therapies	7080
Generating Power via High-Efficiency Electrochemical Converter	Lower cost: The working fluid and storage materials are inexpensive. Multifunctional: Multiple functions (e.g., solar conversion, thermal storage, electrochemical storage) can be integrated in a single system. High efficiency: This device’s heat-to-electricity conversion has the potential to be twice what has been achieved previously.	7065
Non-contact vital sign detection	Automatically adjusts the feedback signals to suppress the noise when the measurement environment changes Improves SNR by 50% at 50 cm when compared to an unlocked system Detects heartbeat at 250 cm, more than twice the distance of the unlocked system	7064
Method for Preconcentration and Capture of Target Bacteria	Offers an inexpensive and rapid method for sample pre-concentration to improve food safety assays Provides enhanced mixing and a high probability of target bacteria capture Enables detection of low concentrations of target bacteria	7054
Ultra-Compact, Low-Power THz Radio	A THz fully integrated super-harmonic (2nd harmonic) regenerative receiver architecture, which detects the incoming THz signals and injection-locks to a regenerative receiver operating at a lower frequency Reduces power consumption and improves the efficiency for THz signal generations Employs a bidirectional and circuit-sharing architecture, so the THz receiver and the THz transmitter share the same oscillator operating at half the frequency	7053
Dual-Energy Computed Tomography Through Primary Beam Modulation	More affordable than currently available comparable DECT components. Eliminates the need for two scans, resulting in a shorter imaging time and reducing issues associated to patient motion during scans. Compatible with most CT scanners, including cone-beam CT.	7038
Electroactive Polymers with Rapid Switching Rates	Environmentally friendly: Aqueous/Organic processing is safer than the aromatic hydrocarbon and chlorinated solvents typically used. Higher levels of electric power: Films made with this technology have significantly faster redox switching rates of up to 10V/s. Versatile: Various electrolyte systems have been successfully tested, including organic, aqueous, the spinal fluid analog Ringer’s solution, and even commercially available sports drinks.	7035
A Mobile-to-Mobile Remote Computing Protocol for Mobile Computing Devices	Supports multi-touch mobile-to-mobile interaction with an order of magnitude increase in supported gestures. Enables rich context transfer between remote mobile devices, and enables the client to experience the remote client’s context by providing access to all the sensor data on the remote client. Compression scheme used is optimized to mobile device operating conditions such as application demands on CPU load, memory usage, and available network bandwidth.	7032
