New Patent for Guardian-LIFE Medical Patch, a Derivative of the Guardian Patch Technology
Gopher Protocol, Inc.2 hours ago
PERRIS, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 26, 2016) - Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher" and the "Company") a development-stage Company developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology, announced today that Dr. Rittman has applied for a patent for the Guardian-LIFE medical patch technology. If the patent is issued, Dr. Rittman will assign the patent to Guardian Patch LLC, the Company's technology licensing partner. The Guardian-LIFE medical patch is a derivative technology of GopherInsight™ microchip technology, which is currently licensed exclusively to the Company. The Guardian-LIFE technology is also to be licensed to the Company and such a license would represent a further expansion of the products licensed to the Company. The Guardian-LIFE technology represents a new sub-product of Guardian Patch LLC's Guardian Patch tracking technology.
The Guardian-LIFE technology is an electronic circuit within a sticky patch package is designed for human vital signs information detection and measurement. The Guardian-LIFE medical patch is based on an optical-acoustic laser technology. The medical patch detection and measurement device includes an affixed sensor system, an optical-acoustic sensing system, an analysis computerized system and a display unit. The user is intended to stick the patch against a human anatomical location for vital detection and measurements. The optical-acoustic system's data is analyzed by the computerized system to calculate and determine the human vital information and to present it on the display system. The system measures heart rate, a systolic blood pressure, a diastolic blood pressure, a mean arterial blood pressure, a pulse pressure and temperature.
The Guardian-LIFE electronic circuit embedded within the medical sticky patch includes a BIOS, ROM, RAM memory and at least one microprocessor or microcontroller. The electronic circuits are located within microchips or on the device's electronic board as separated microchips. The electronic circuit within the patch transmits the vital signs information via conventional network including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The system works in conjunction with a mobile software application to provide human vital detection and measurement functionalities within mobile devices and a web based application.
The Guardian Patch, the company's first exclusively licensed product to bring to the consumer markets, is a unique location technology that works with or without GPS. All of the technologies that are currently being developed by Guardian Patch LLC are currently based on GopherInsight™ microchip technology, which the Company exclusively holds a license to.
