Title: Innovations by Gunnar Erik Skulason

Introduction

Gunnar Erik Skulason is an accomplished inventor based in Pleasanton, California. He holds three patents that showcase his expertise in the fields of integrated circuits and medical imaging technologies. His innovative contributions have the potential to significantly impact various industries.

Latest Patents

One of Skulason's latest patents is an integrated circuit for a highly flexible low noise laser current source. This invention describes an ASIC design where certain portions of the laser driver are controllable by the user. In one embodiment, the ASIC includes one or more pins that provide a connection interface for a sense resistor corresponding to the particular laser being used. This design allows users the flexibility to adapt the laser driver to their selected laser while benefiting from the advantages of using an ASIC.

Another notable patent is a method for detecting cancerous masses in the breast via infrared technology. This method utilizes a computer-controlled motor for the emitter and detector, along with a collimator and window. It forms images of internal parts of objects that may be smeared out due to scattering. The method employs scanning beams of radiation and separates radiation that has not suffered scattering events from that which has. The invention also includes a transparent window pressed against the object to maintain the incident radiation along a known direction.
