  • Patent number: 12564500
    Abstract: A femoral trialling kit and method for assessing acetabular cup orientation during a left hip joint surgical procedure and a right hip joint surgical procedure are described. The kit includes a trial femoral head having an inner wall defining a cavity extending along a head axis and a visual alignment guide on an outer surface of the trial femoral head and a trial femoral neck having a taper at a free end, the taper being receivable within the cavity. One of the taper and the inner wall has a first anti-rotation feature and a second anti-rotation feature, the first anti-rotation feature and the second anti-rotation feature being inclined, and the other of the taper and the inner wall has a third anti-rotation feature.

  • Patent number: 11706382
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for encrypting captured media. In one embodiment, the method includes capturing media data via use of a lens of an image capture apparatus; obtaining a number used only once (NONCE) value from the captured media data; obtaining an encryption key for use in encryption of the captured media data; using the obtained NONCE value and the obtained encryption key for encrypting the captured media data; and storing the encrypted media data. In some variants, the media is encrypted prior to storage, thereby obviating any instances in which the captured media data resides in a wholly unencrypted instance. Apparatus and methods for decrypting encrypted captured media are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20190250772
    Abstract: Source criteria associated with a first set of one or more sources may be obtained such that electronic files defining media content generated by any source in the first source set include source information that satisfies the source criteria. The source information in electronic files may be compared with the source criteria to determine whether the electronic files were generated by any source in the first source set. Electronic files determined to have been generated by any source in the first source set may be presented to a user through a graphical user interface of a media player application. Electronic files determined to not have been generated by any source in the first source set may be hid from presentation within the graphical user interface of the media player application.
