Silicone Wristbands as Personal Monitoring Devices
SI Figure Explanations Extraction efficiency was determined by quantitatively analyzing subsequent rounds of extraction (100 mL ethyl acetate) from a wristband that had been infused with several compounds (four labeled PAHs) (Figure S1). Differences in extracted amount did not differ between the two time treatments (p=0.78). Therefore, extractions for all silicone PSDs in this study were done w...
متن کاملShrinking optical devices
Much of optics depends on objects being much larger than the wavelength of light: shadows of opaque objects are sharp only if free of diffraction effects, and ‘cat’s eye’ retroreflectors function only if they are large. Here, we show how to make theoretically arbitrarily small versions of these devices by exploiting the power of a negatively refracting lens to magnify objects that are smaller t...
متن کاملReinventing personal glucose devices.
One could say the holy grail of diagnostic medicine is simple, low-cost point-of-care technologies that can be implemented in the home or in laboratories outside of the high-tech infrastructure we have come to know in the developed world. In a race in which there have been only a few winners over the last few decades, one technology stands above them all: personal glucose meters (PGMs). PGMs ha...
متن کاملPersonal Tele-Immersion Devices
The Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL) at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) has partnered with dozens of computational scientists and engineers to create visualization and virtual reality (VR) devices and applications for collaborative exploration of scientific and engineering data. Since 1995, our research and development activities have incorporated emerging high bandwidth ne...
متن کاملPursuing Sociability Through Personal Devices
In this paper we describe the fundamental principles that guide our work process at 5050ltd, in developing concepts and prototypes for personal technology devices. We maintain that in designing personal devices it is critical to address the social interaction elements of the user experience. We introduce the term “social functionality” to refer to those aspects of a device that are specifically...
