  • Publication number: 20240114027
    Abstract: A system for authenticating a medical device is described. The system receives a request from a medical device to access operations or data of an external service provider. The system determines whether the request received from the medical device is valid. When the request is valid, the system generates a token that is customized based on the external service provider identified in the request, and the system transfers the token to medical device, the token enabling the medical device to access the operations or data of the external service provider.

  • Publication number: 20230185279
    Abstract: A computer numerically controlled machine may include a source configured to deliver an electromagnetic energy to at least one location within an interior space of the computer-numerically-controlled machine. The electromagnetic energy may have a first range of wavelengths from a visible spectrum. An enclosure defining at least a portion of the interior space of the computer numerically controlled machine may include a transparent portion configured to filter the first range of wavelengths associated with the electromagnetic energy. Moreover, the transparent portion may reflect and/or transmit at least a second range of wavelengths from the visible spectrum not associated with the electromagnetic energy such that the transparent portion of the enclosure exhibits a first color corresponding to the second range of wavelengths.
