The invention provides in some aspects an apparatus for treatment of a patient for an inflammatory condition that includes a sensor to detect the presence and/or measure (e.g., quantity or quality) of each of one or more biomarkers of the patient, and that generates biomarker data indicative thereof. An illumination source that is in proximity of the patient applies a therapeutic dose of electromagnetic radiation to reduce the inflammation. A controller that is coupled to the sensor and the illumination source generates a dose control signal to effect application of the therapeutic dose by the illumination source. The controller determines an efficacy of applying such a dose by analyzing the biomarker data with an artificial intelligence (AI) engine and a machine learning (ML) model trained with training data indicative of modulation of the one or more biomarkers in response to dosing of such electromagnetic radiation.

A bulk sorting system for sorting objects in bulk is provided. The bulk sorting system includes: at least one radiation source arranged to radiate the objects, at least one optical sensor arranged to capture reflected radiation of the objects and acquire the reflected radiation as multi- or hyperspectral data; a processing circuit configured to analyze the reflected radiation of the objects by inputting the multi- or hyperspectral data into a convolutional neural network (CNN) with at least two convolutional layers in order to either detect and classify the objects in the multi- or hyperspectral data and/or semantically segment the multi- or hyperspectral data; and a mechanical sorter configured to sort the objects according to their classification and/or segmentation using the analysis of the processing circuit such that different overlapping and/or stacked objects are separated or treated as a single group of objects.

A biosensor system has a capsule with a housing configured for ingesting in a mammal GI tract, being cylindrical with domed ends. The housing forms an external space akin to a “cut-out” shape with two opposing transparent walls facing each other in the longitudinal direction and a base wall facing radially. An LED emitter emits at a number of wavelengths in time sequence, and radiation is detected by a photo-detector via the wall which forms a concave lens. An antenna is for wireless transmission of data to an external device and is in the form of conical spiral in an overall conical shape, located for optimum space efficiency in a domed end. A battery compartment is at the opposed end of the housing, separated from the antenna by the external space.

Antennas include first and second radiating elements that are configured to operate in respective operating frequency bands. The first radiating element includes a first dipole arm that has a first conductive path and a second conductive path that is positioned behind the first conductive path. The first conductive path includes a plurality of first segments and the second conductive path includes a plurality of second segments, where a subset of the first segments overlap respective ones of second segments to form a plurality of pairs of overlapping first and second segments. At least some of the pairs of overlapping segments are configured so that the instantaneous direction of a first current formed on the first segment in response to RF radiation emitted by the second radiating element will be substantially opposite the instantaneous direction of a second current formed on the second segment in response to the RF radiation.

A 3D printing system includes a build vessel, a carriage, and a light engine. The build vessel includes a vessel base having a downward extending tension ring that tensions a transparent sheet. The transparent sheet laterally bounds a build plane that is defined over orthogonal lateral axis X and Y. The carriage includes a roller that extends between two opposing sides of the tension ring. The roller exerts an upward force on the transparent sheet and the two opposing sides of the tension ring. The vertical constraint of the roller biased against the tension ring provides a location and improved planarity of a supported portion of the transparent sheet adjacent to the roller. The light engine light engine is configured to selectively apply radiation to a projected area of the build plane through the supported portion of the transparent sheet.
