Abstract: A single-sided continuous optoelectrowetting (SCOEW) device for manipulating droplets retained in a fluid over the SCOEW device with dynamic patterns of low intensity light, such as from a display screen, is described. A single pair of lateral electrodes are utilized for providing a lateral electric field bias, with transport motion controlled in response to projecting light through a photoconductive layer and dielectric layer adjacent to which droplets are retained. The device is configured for optically manipulating droplets having volumes spanning over five orders of magnitude, and can be configured to perform droplet dispensing, transport, splitting, merging, mixing and other droplet manipulation functions involving any of the above on a single sided surface.

Abstract: A method protects care information in a care provider terminal. The method includes detecting if there is a network disconnection between the care provider terminal and an authorized access point (AP), operating the care provider terminal in an offline mode until a first predetermined time is over after the network disconnection is detected, activating an alarm operation when the first predetermined time is over, and deleting the care information when a second predetermined time is over after the alarm operation is activated. The method may further include determining whether or not the care provider terminal is connected to an unauthorized AP while counting the first predetermined time or the second predetermined time, and deleting the care information if it is determined that the care provider terminal is connected to the unauthorized AP.
