Abstract: There is provided an electrochromic fixed image display and a method for manufacturing the display. The electrochromic fixed image display for displaying a predetermined symbol comprising a stack of layers of: a colour layer which is configured to provide a resulting colour contrast to the display when comparing its on-state and off-state; a first electrochromic electrode layer arranged behind said colour layer in a viewing direction; an electronically and ionically insulating symbol defining layer, arranged behind the first electrode layer, which comprises at least one opening defining the shape the predetermined symbol; an electrolyte, arranged behind the symbol defining layer, which fills and covers the opening of said symbol defining layer; and a counter electrode layer, arranged behind the electrolyte layer, comprising an electronically conductive material, wherein the electrolyte layer is in ionic contact with the first electrode layer and the counter electrode layer.

Abstract: A waveguide switch for switching between an ON-state and an OFF-state for a waveguide channel, including: a moveable waveguide switch body including: an input opening for receiving an electromagnetic wave, an output opening for releasing an electromagnetic wave, wherein the waveguide switch body further includes a blocking element arranged such that in the ON state, an electromagnetic wave may pass from the input opening to the output opening, and in the OFF state the blocking element substantially impedes an electromagnetic wave traveling from the input opening to the output opening, whereby the switch from the ON state to the OFF state is a rotational or translation movement of the waveguide switch body. Also, a waveguide system employing such a switch and a method of manufacturing such a switch. Contactless switching is provided in a high-frequency system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to computerized systems and computerized methods configured to optimize data transmission paths in a large-scale computerized network relative to reliability and bandwidth requirements. Embodiments of the invention further relate to computerized systems and methods that direct and control the physical adjustments to data transmission paths in a large-scale network's composition of computerized data transmission nodes in order to limit data end-to-end transmission delay in a computerized network to a delay within a calculated worst-case delay bound.
