TS-072321 — The Need Current virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) platforms lack integration of gustatory (taste) sensations, limiting user immersion and sensory engagement. Existing human-machine interfaces focus primarily on visual, auditory, and haptic feedback, neglecting the chemical dimension of taste. T…

TS-072320 — The Need Current biofuel cell sensors suffer from poor selectivity and accuracy due to fluctuations in ionic strength and pH at the sensing interface. These environmental changes can significantly interfere with sensor readings, limiting reliability in medical diagnostics, energy generation, and env…

TS-072319 — The Need Current methods for mapping electrical potential gradients in biological tissues, such as the brain, rely on high-density electrode arrays fabricated via costly microfabrication techniques. These rigid devices struggle to conform to complex tissue morphologies, limiting their effectiveness …

TS-071414 — The Need Current neurochemical monitoring technologies are limited by bulky form factors, complex fabrication, and invasiveness, which restrict their clinical and research utility. Existing sensors often cause tissue damage, lack real-time resolution, and are costly to manufacture, impeding widespre…

TS-062489 — Biosensors are a powerful and emerging technology capable of measuring the presence and concentration of molecules inside the human body. These devices are based on the premise that the physiology of diseased tissue is substantially different from that of healthy tissue and can be used to diagnose a…

TS-062483 — Measurement/detection of analytes (e.g., biomarkers) in different environments (e.g., biofluids/organs) is typically performed using a biosensor. Available bio-integrated sensors do not provide the capability to map biomarker concentrations, require a power source to function, use a limited number of electrodes, and normally can only measure a specific type of biofluid but not others. The use of glutamate mapping technology (radioactive or fluorescent ligand bound to a glutamate receptor) has been evaluated and found to require bulky/expensive medical equipment, a power source for measurement, cannot be miniaturized or integrated into a bio tissue, and require patients to be stationary during measurement.

TS-061832 — A portable and lightweight readout circuit designed for use with LRC-based wireless sensors and in conjunction with other commonly used devices (e.g., smartphone, laptop, and tablet)

TS-058251 — Diagnostic tools are key to medicine, research and diagnostics. The measurement of biomolecules and their absorption kinetics can facilitate a better understanding of drug intake, biological responses, or in the continuous monitoring of specimen. Current equipment requires centralized equipment, t…
