Abstract: A system for detection of covert spying devices. A computing device of the system is configured to receive user selections of covert spying device detection options. An image recognition process is carried out to determine whether any object detected in an image of objects being scanned resembles an already known covert spying device. A network scan process is carried out optionally or additionally to determine whether any network attribute associated with objects being scanned resembles any network attribute associated with the already known covert spying device. A monitoring process detects and logs any unauthorized access made to objects being scanned on finding any deviation in activities occurred in the objects being scanned from a standard set of activities. A report indicates any object as a suspected covert spying device on finding any resemblance with an already known covert spying device or on finding any unauthorized access.

Abstract: A method for registration of rights for hosting virtual objects over a property in augmented reality environment in an augmented reality registration service system. The augmented reality registration service system provides a user interface to enable a property owner to place a request for registration of rights for associating virtual objects in augmented reality environment over a property selected from maps presented through the user interface. Right of associating virtual objects over a property for display in augmented reality environment is reserved for the property owner if permissible. The system can render different virtual objects at different coordinates of the property as requested by the property owner or a third party having permission from the property owner.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a method for analyzing a retinal image of an eye for retinal disease includes conforming a contact portion of a patient interface to the surface of the eye. A camera stem is received by a sleeve of the patient interface. Light from the camera stem is directed by the sleeve towards the interior of the eye, and light reflected from the interior of the eye is directed by the sleeve towards the camera. Image data generated by the camera is output to a computer. Options representing actions that facilitate analysis of the retinal image are displayed at the computer. The retinal image is displayed at the computer according to the image data. A selection of an option is received by the computer. The action represented by the option is performed by the computer to facilitate analysis of the retinal image.

Abstract: A check valve assembly includes a valve frame, a valve poppet, a first torsion spring, and a second torsion spring. The valve frame has an opening. The valve poppet is positionable in the opening. The valve poppet is moveable in a first direction to close the check valve assembly and moveable in a second direction to open the check valve assembly. The first torsion spring biases the valve poppet in the first direction. The second torsion spring biases the valve poppet in the first direction before the valve poppet has traveled a threshold distance. The second torsion spring biases the valve poppet in the second direction after the valve poppet has traveled the threshold distance.

Abstract: A LED lighting module is described that is realized as a printed circuit assembly. The LED lighting module has a carrier with a strip of dielectric material and conductive circuit tracks printed on the dielectric material. Bare LED dies are mounted in a linear formation on the carrier. The width of the LED die formation does not exceed 0.75 mm and the area of the emission face of an LED die does not exceed 0.0625 mm2. Drivers are mounted on the carrier and are connected to drive the LED dies.

Abstract: A light engine and system are disclosed in which the light engine contains a core comprising an opening extending through opposing surfaces and a flexible printed circuit board (PCB). The PCB includes a flexible body disposed on an outside of the core and having independently addressable sets of illumination sources mounted thereto, and flexible legs extending from the body and through the opening. The legs are bent such that a terminal portion of each leg is substantially parallel to the opposing surfaces of the core. Independent control of the sets of illumination sources is provided via the legs. The body is separated into segments, each on a different section of the outside and containing body contacts electrically independent of the body contacts of each other segment. Each leg is associated with a different segment, and contains leg contacts on the terminal portion in electrical contact with the associated body contacts.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a system generates image data for an image of the interior of an eye. The system includes a camera apparatus and patient interface. The camera apparatus includes a camera stem, sensor, processor, and communication interface. The camera stem has illuminators that emits light and an objective lens system that receives light. The sensor generates a signal in response to detecting light received by the objective lens system. The processor generates image data from the signal, and the communication interface outputs the image data. The patient interface includes a contact portion and a sleeve. The contact portion is shaped to conform to an anterior eye surface of the eye. The sleeve is shaped to receive the camera stem. The sleeve directs light from the illuminators towards the eye interior, and directs light reflected from the eye interior towards the camera apparatus.
