Abstract: A transmitter in an Internet of Things (IoT) network parses an authentication credential into different portions and assigns each portion to one of multiple pre-determined frequency channels for transmission. A receiver for which the authentication credential is intended first authenticates that the different portions of the authentication credential are sent on the pre-determined frequency channels. The receiver then compiles the portions and authenticates the authentication credential.

Abstract: An endoscope is provided to examine internal organs with front and rear views. The endoscope comprises a shaft extending from a distal end in a rearward direction along a longitudinal axis towards a proximal end, with the distal and proximal ends defining a hollow channel extended there-through. The endoscope further comprises a first lens positioned adjacent to the distal end and configured to receive a first image in a forward direction along the longitudinal axis, with the forward direction generally 180 degree from the rearward direction. The endoscope further comprises a rearview module positioned adjacent to the distal end. The rearview module comprises a second lens configured to be positioned adjacent to the distal end, and receive a second image in a target direction having a directional component in the rearward direction along the longitudinal axis, independently of the first lens receiving the first image in the forward direction.
