Abstract
The present disclosure provides for an incubator, which includes a film with a plurality of configurations. The configurations can include a first configuration to block the transmission of light through the film and a second configuration to be transparent to the transmission of light. The film can further allow any number of additional configurations with varying degrees of opacity, each opacity being between the opacities of the first and second configurations. The film can automatically change opacities based on input from an incubator processor or external devices configured to communicate with the incubator processor.
Claims21
An incubator for containing a premature baby, the incubator comprising a film being opaque to the transmission of light through the film in a first configuration, and transparent to the transmission of light in a second configuration.
-20. (canceled)
An incubator for containing a premature baby, the incubator being opaque to the transmission of light through the incubator in a first configuration, and transparent to the transmission of light in a second configuration, and at least one additional configuration, the at least one additional configuration having an intermediate opacity between the opacity of the first configuration and the transparency of the second configuration;
- the transmission of light through the incubator being responsive to an electric current.
