Arizona Patent of the Month – July 2024
StimAire Inc. has secured a patent for their proprietary neuromodulation system which represents a groundbreaking advancement in the field of non-invasive medical treatments. This innovative device utilizes a free running resonance magnetic field generator to modulate neural activity, offering a new approach to managing various neurological conditions.
At the heart of the system is a housing that contains a coil and a capacitor connected in parallel, creating a resonance that delivers precise stimulation signals. The generator is powered by a DC supply and controlled by a sophisticated switch mechanism involving a microprocessor, transistor, and rectifier, which finely tunes the timing of magnetic pulses to maximize therapeutic effects while minimizing power consumption.
One of the key features of StimAire’s system is its flexibility and adaptability. The magnetic field generator can be attached to the body using an adhesive, ensuring that it remains securely in place during treatment. The inclusion of a rechargeable battery and a contact sensor that conserves energy when not in use enhances the device’s practicality and ease of use. Additionally, the system can accommodate both flexible and rigid coils, with the flexible coils made from durable materials like BoPET and PTFE, ensuring comfort and longevity. This adaptability allows the device to be used in various therapeutic contexts, from targeting specific neurons in the brain to managing pain in peripheral nerves.
StimAire’s neuromodulation system stands out for its ability to provide continuous, targeted stimulation without overheating—a common issue with previous magnetic stimulators. By recycling the inductive energy of the coil and using low-voltage power supplies, the system maintains effective stimulation over longer periods, significantly improving treatment outcomes. This capability, combined with its compact and wearable design, positions StimAire’s invention as a leading solution for enhancing neural function and providing relief from neurological disorders.

What is the R&D Tax Credit?
The Research & Experimentation Tax Credit (or R&D Tax Credit), is a general business tax credit under Internal Revenue Code section 41 for companies that incur research and development (R&D) costs in the United States. The credits are a tax incentive for performing qualified research in the United States, resulting in a credit to a tax return. For the first three years of R&D claims, 6% of the total qualified research expenses (QRE) form the gross credit. In the 4th year of claims and beyond, a base amount is calculated, and an adjusted expense line is multiplied times 14%. Click here to learn more.
