Abstract: The present disclosure includes a retrofit sensor module for use with a protective head top with a helmet and a visor. The sensor module includes a sensor housing and an attachment mechanism. The sensor housing encloses a head presence sensor to sense when the protective head top is being worn. The sensor housing also encloses a position sensor to sense the position of the visor relative to the helmet. The retrofit sensor module further comprises an attachment mechanism secured to the housing. The attachment mechanism mates with a first hinge component of a hinge assembly in the protective head top to removably install the sensor module into the protective head top, wherein the hinge assembly allows the visor to move relative to the helmet.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing an intensity of an electrical discharge that occurs within a fluid transport system in an aerospace vehicle. In one illustrative embodiment, an apparatus includes a transport member. The transport member is configured for use in the fluid transport system. The transport member includes a material configured to reduce voltages and currents, induced in response to an electromagnetic event, along the transport member.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for memory repair for a memory device are described. An example apparatus includes: a data input/output circuit that provides data via a plurality of data signal lines; memory cell arrays; an ECC/Parity redundancy array; and a redundancy circuit coupled to the plurality of data signal lines. The redundancy circuit includes an error correction block that generates error correction information based on the data and provides the error correction information to the ECC/Parity redundancy array. If during test it is determined that a failure is not repairable by standard redundancy including error correction code, the error correction parity array is not needed and can be redirected by a block repair circuit. The error correction circuit can now have its functionality changed to allow the error correction array to become a block repair.

Abstract: Tattoo removal is disclosed. In an example, a method for removing tattoo ink from skin or resolving a medical condition related to tattoo ink, includes applying a primary solution of beta glucan to a treatment area having tattooed skin. The primary solution stimulates the skin in the treatment area to enhance removal of the tattoo ink from the skin. The example method also includes coating the treatment area with a secondary solution. The secondary solution may have an absorbent material to draw in loose ink. The example method also includes disrupting a skin barrier in the treatment area by a needle or ablative device to improve penetration of at least one of the primary solution and the secondary solution.

Abstract: A cybersecurity engine can guide a forensic investigation of a security incident by estimating the utility of investigating events associated with the security incident, selecting a subset of such events based on the estimated utilities, and presenting data associated with the selected events to the investigator. A method for guiding a response to a security incident may include estimating, for each of a plurality of security events associated with the security incident, a utility of investigating the security event.
