OMNIGENE software system
View Patent ↗A software system which employs a special set of simulated electrical circuits to generate user-specific textured and signature color images based on DNA, speech, fingerprint and retinal scans. The output of the system can be used in a variety of applications including easy visual identification of different types of gene sequences (human, plant, diseased, normal, etc.), drug design, multi-level security ID cards based on biometric data, custom colors and textures for diverse home and office products such as clothing, bedspreads, linen, stationery and fabric.
1. A method for generating textured images and solid color images of the magnitude and phase responses of an interconnected set of electrical circuits which have been simulated using computer software; where each of these circuits represents a model, at the chemical structure level, of the four nucleic acid bases A, C, G and T and the codons representing the standard amino acid set {A, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, Y}; where each circuit is comprised of an interconnection of resistors, inductors and capacitors; where the user specifies as basic input to the software: a) a DNA sequence or amino acid, sequence, b) a resistor value greater than zero, c) an inductor value greater than zero, d) a capacitor value greater than zero, e) a frequency value greater than zero; where the user optionally specifies as additional input any of the following: f) a speech waveform, g) a retinal scan image, and h) a fingerprint image; where for pairs of textured images or solid color images, difference images can be generated.

4. A method according to claim 2 wherein the difference images generated can serve to establish the equivalence or non-equivalence of two input amino acid sequences.
5. A method according to claim 1 wherein, given a DNA sequence d 1 d 2 d 3 . . . d m (m>1) the circuit modeling the i th element (i<=m) in the DNA sequence is connected to the composite interconnected circuit modeling all the previous (i−1) elements in the input DNA sequence either in serial or in parallel fashion using an alternating pattern, thereby producing two different circuit implementations.
6. A method according to claim 1 wherein, given an amino acid sequence a 1 a 2 a 3 . . . a m (m>1) the circuit modeling the i th element in the amino acid sequence is connected to the interconnected composite circuit modeling all the previous (i−1) elements in the input amino acid sequence either in serial or in parallel fashion using an alternating pattern, thereby producing two different circuit implementations.
