  • Patent number: 9134614
    Abstract: There is herein described a method and apparatus for photoimaging. More particularly, there is described a method and apparatus for photoimaging a substrate (e.g. a web) covered with a wet curable photopolymer wherein a rotatable phototool is pressed and rotated against the substrate to create an imaged substrate which is used to form images suitable for forming electrical circuits such as for printed circuit boards (PCBs), flat panel displays and flexible circuits. There is also described a method and apparatus for directly photoimaging a substrate covered with a wet curable photopolymer, wherein the photoimaged substrate is used to form images such as electrical circuits and a method and apparatus for exposing at least part of a solder mask on a printed circuit board (PCB) using a wet curable photopolymer wherein an imaging process may thereafter occur on the area above the solder mask.

  • Patent number: 9035256
    Abstract: An optical absorption gas sensor includes a radiation source, detector and radiation guide which has a rectangular cross section and curves around a side of the cross section. Locating elements locate a support element relative to the radiation guide to align the radiation source and detector with the guide. Radiation from the reference radiation source may be transmitted through a transparent measurement radiation source. Radiation from a reference radiation source may be directed around the measurement reference source. A light emitting diode may generate radiation which is detected by a photodiode and the photodiode may be driven to generate radiation having a different emission spectrum detectable using the light emitting diode, in another operating mode. Two or more abutting L-shaped radiation guide portions may form the radiation guide.

  • Publication number: 20140281443
    Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an approach is provided in which a diagnostic system retrieves encrypted utilization data from an electronic system that were generated from utilization data corresponding to the electronic system's usage. The diagnostic system decrypts the encrypted utilization data and determines whether the decrypted utilization data are valid. When the decrypted utilization data are valid, the diagnostic system displays the decrypted utilization data on a display. In another embodiment, the diagnostic system retrieves cryptographically-protected utilization data from the electronic system and determines the authenticity of the cryptographically-protected utilization data. Once the cryptographically-protected utilization data are authenticated, the diagnostic system displays the corresponding utilization data on a display.

  • Publication number: 20140207122
    Abstract: A drug delivery safety system includes a programmer with a display and a communications device adapted to communicate with an ambulatory medical device. The programmer has access to a database of information, and is adapted to receive and process the information and a user input and to control the display to provide a graphical user interface that prompts a user of the programmer to provide an additional user input when the user input requests a drug delivery protocol for the ambulatory medical device that is not already stored in the database as a clinician-approved drug delivery protocol.
