US Patent:

20070276425, Nov 29, 2007

Filed:

May 29, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/420767

Inventors:

Stanley Kim - Upland CA, US
Edward Kim - Upland CA, US
Shyna Kim - Upland CA, US
Audrey Kim - Upland CA, US
Esther Kim - Upland CA, US

International Classification:

A61B 17/34

US Classification:

606186

Abstract:

A puncturing needle device has multiple (2 or more) thin needles which are mounted onto a body part or a syringe. The combination of thinness and multitude of needle can minimize pain while drawing or injecting sufficient amount of liquid such as blood or liquid drug. The needles can be different in their length.

Appl. No.:

16/987368

Inventors:

Esther Kim - San Gabriel CA, US

International Classification:

A01M 1/14
A01M 3/04

Abstract:

An extendable and adjustable insect entrapment apparatus reaches insects and pests in hard to reach areas through a multi-jointed elongated rod that hinges and pivots into various configuration to reach and entrap the insects with a pad of stacked, singular sticky sheets. The rod has a proximal end with a formed hole for hanging the apparatus from a distal end. At least one joint in the rod is fixedly set at a desired angle and orientation. The sticky sheets retain any insects which travel or fall into a base at the distal end of the rod. Each sheet is coated with a mild compression adhesive material that entraps an insect in response to an application of force against the insect. Each sticky sheet can be separated individually. Upon entrapment of an insect, the outermost sticky sheet restraining the insect is separated, folded to encase the insect, and disposed of.

International Classification:

A61B 5/0478
A61B 5/18
A61B 5/00
A61B 5/16

Abstract:

In one aspect, an apparatus for detecting fatigue comprises a dry-contact electroencephalogram (EEG) electrode to measure EEG data operably coupled to at least one processor. The at least one processor is to: calculate a frequency domain representation of the EEG data, detect spectral features indicative of fatigue based on the frequency domain representation; and determine whether the brain is fatigued based on the detection. In another aspect, a method for detecting fatigue comprises receiving EEG data from dry-contact EEG electrode, calculating a frequency domain representation of the EEG data, detecting spectral features indicative of fatigue based on the frequency domain representation; and determining whether the brain is fatigued based on the detection.
