  • Publication number: 20220273368
    Abstract: An exemplary auto-configurable simulation system includes a control module configured to simulate a first type of surgical instrument manipulating system included in a plurality of types of surgical instrument manipulating systems and a computing device communicatively connected to the control module. The computing device includes a processor configured to execute instructions to communicatively connect the control module to a user control console of a computer-assisted surgical system, determine, after communicatively connecting the control module to the user control console, that the user control console is configured to facilitate control of a second type of surgical instrument manipulating system, store data indicating that the user control console is configured to facilitate control of the second type of surgical instrument manipulating system, and reprogram the control module such that the control module is configured to simulate the second type of surgical instrument manipulating system.

  • Patent number: 11418339
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, system and computer-readable medium are provided for preserving an encryption of data when confronted by an attack, such as a side channel analysis (SCA) attack based on a statistical analysis. In some embodiments, hardware, software, and/or firmware associated with an encryption calculation may be exercised or accessed during a background operation when an actual or real operation is not taking place. During the background operation, dummy values for data and one or more keys may be input to the hardware. A switching between the real operation and the background operation may take place seamlessly such that measurement of a physical characteristic associated with the hardware is indistinguishable in terms of when the real and background operations are active. In this manner, the secrecy of a key used in connection with the real operation may be preserved.

  • Publication number: 20180257402
    Abstract: A printer comprising: a fixed printhead assembly defining a print zone; an input transport assembly for feeding print media along a media path and into the print zone, the input transport assembly being positioned upstream of the print zone; and an exit transport assembly positioned downstream of the print zone for receiving the print media from the print zone. The input transport assembly exerts a higher gripping force on the print media than the exit transport assembly and the exit transport assembly is configured to provide a higher transport speed than the input transport assembly, such that the print media has a degree of slippage relative to the exit transport assembly.
