A method and system for non-invasive determination of at least one condition of a living organism selected from physiological conditions and emotional states of the living organism are described. The method comprises sensing electromagnetic waves emanated from a skin portion in an extremely high frequency (EHF) band, and obtaining from the sensed electromagnetic waves at least one unique biometric signature of the living organism indicative of the organism condition. The system includes an antenna array unit configured for sensing the electromagnetic waves emanated from the skin portion; and a receiving unit configured and operable for obtaining the unique biometric signature. The sensed electromagnetic waves are indicative of bioelectric activity of neurally connected and electromagnetically interacting structures distributed in a skin portion of the living organism.

A system and method are presented for monitoring detectable responses from multiple biosensing elements while in contact with multiple samples located in an array. The system () comprises an exciting unit (), and a detection unit (). The exciting unit () is configured for producing an array of exciting signals () each characterized by a frequency differing from those of the other exciting signals, and exciting a corresponding array of the biosensing elements (), thereby enabling each biosensing element to generate a response signal () tagged by the different frequency. The detection unit () comprises a single receiving element associated with said array of biosensing elements () and configured for concurrently receiving the multiple response signals and generating a single output signal () indicative thereof. The system thereby enables to identify signal parts corresponding to the response signals of the spatially separated biosensing elements.

A laser power grid for operation with data networks employs WDM and incorporates wavelength addressing. The laser power grid () includes a laser power supply station () comprising a plurality of continuous-work laser sources (), a laser distribution grid () for distributing light propagations of different wavelengths throughout a data network and an optical switching network () coupled to the laser distribution grid for locally turning the laser power on when it is needed. The laser power grid replaces systems of tunable lasers. It is considerably faster and cheaper than systems of tunable lasers and produces less waste heat within the data network surroundings. The laser power grid incorporates parallel fast optical communication in complex multi-node communication and computer networks and enables the implementation of burst switching and packet switching by wavelength addressing.
