Abstract: A system for resisting tampering, comprising: a device comprising a printed circuit board within a housing; at least one tamper sensor; and a conductive ink electrically connected to the printed circuit board and forming a conductive path when applied to a material. The conductive path has a defined electrical property, such as resistance or conductance. The printed circuit board is configured to both measure any changes in the defined electrical property and trigger an alert to a gateway located outside of the system, such as by a Bluetooth Low energy interface. Methods of resisting tampering of a variety of articles using the disclosed system are also disclosed. Articles comprising the disclosed system are also disclosed.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for displaying a panoramic image using a look-up table (LUT) are disclosed, including generating an LUT may include determining first geometric correction information to transform an input domain pixel coordinate system of an input image to a panorama domain pixel coordinate system of a panoramic image, determining second geometric correction information to transform an output domain pixel coordinate system of an output image of the panoramic image to the panorama domain pixel coordinate system of the panoramic image, determining third geometric correction information to transform the output domain pixel coordinate system of the output image to the input domain pixel coordinate system of the input image based on the first geometric correction information and second geometric correction information, and generating an LUT that maps the output domain pixel coordinate system of the output image to the input domain pixel coordinate system of the input image.

Abstract: A method of treating various diseases, disorders, or conditions in patient using reprogrammed cells such as retrodifferentiated, transdifferentiated, or redifferentiated cells. The method comprises obtaining committed cells from the patient, retrodifferentiating the committed cells to obtain retrodifferentiated target cells, and administering the retrodifferentiated cells to the patient. In certain embodiments, the method comprises obtaining committed cells from the patient, transdifferentiating the committed cells to obtain transdifferentiated target cells, and administering the transdifferentiated target cells to the patient. The retrodifferentiated or transdifferentiated target cells repair or replenish tissue or cells in the patient.

Abstract: A device for preparing an undifferentiated cell, the device comprises means for contacting a more committed cell with an agent that causes the more committed cell to retrodifferentiate into an undifferentiated cell.
