Abstract: A method for measuring glucose concentration in a biological material is disclosed, as well as a computer readable medium and a sensor system for performing the method. The method comprises irradiating the biological material with optical radiation having a first wavelength between 400 nanometers and 25 micrometers; detecting a first signal from the biological material at the first wavelength; irradiating the biological material with radio-frequency, RF, radiation having a second wavelength between 1 millimeter and 30 centimeters; detecting a second signal from the biological material at the second wavelength; and determining a concentration of glucose in the biological material based on the first signal and the second signal. The sensor system comprises an optical radiation source, an optical radiation detector, an RF radiation source, and RF radiation detector, and a processing device.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for generating a verified user identity certificate (VUIC) for use by a security token device. The method can include receiving a user input to initiate creation of the VUIC and generating for display a prompt to authenticate the user via a biometric input at the security token device. The method can include pairing the security token device and the client device. The method can include receiving identity information and sending the identity information to a verification service. The method can include generating the VUIC comprising: a name, date of birth, and social security number. The method can include generating for display a prompt to initiate installation of the VUIC at the security token device. The method can include receiving at least one security key from the security token device and installing the VUIC at a secure enclave of the security token device.

Abstract: Described are systems and methods of warming a patient using a flexible, stretchable resistive heating element, a temperature detection device, a power supply, and a controller.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a convertor for converting alternating movement to unidirectional movement, the convertor comprising an actuator for generating the alternating movement, the actuator being disposed to exert compressive and tensile forces on first and second members, the first said member having a positive Poisson's ratio and the second said member having a negative Poisson's ratio, and the first and second members being adapted for differential frictional engagement with a structure.

Abstract: An apparatus and system for mounting articles to a supporting surface by a mounting bracket, having engaging fingers formed thereon to register with an engage corresponding sockets extend into the article to be mounted. A system is also disclosed with a mounting bracket having parallel arms away from the supporting surface, said arms corresponding to sockets formed upon the article to be mounted.
