Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to techniques to provide secure remote debugging are described. In an embodiment, a debugging entity generates and transmits a host token to a device via an interface. The interface provides encrypted communication between the debugging entity and the device. The debugging entity generates a session key based at least in part on the host token and a device token. The debugging entity transmits an acknowledgement signal to the device after generation of the session key to initiate a debug session. The debugging entity transmits a debug unlock key to the device to cause the device to be unlocked for the debug session. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: A device and corresponding method for ventilating a space is provided. The device includes an air conditioning system that is adapted for conditioning recirculated and/or fresh air to be used for the ventilation of the space. The device also includes at least one air treatment means adapted for exposing the recirculated and/or fresh air to one or more of UVC, ozone and/or atomized detergents. Relative to an air stream, the air treatment means is positioned prior to the air conditioning system receiving the recirculated and/or fresh air, and/or prior to the air conditioning system releasing the air into the space.

Abstract: A system for providing hands-free input to a computer. The system includes one or more artificial cilia mounts attached to an eyelid or eyelash of a user, by which one or more of the artificial cilia extending therefrom are adapted to cause generation of an input command in response to an intentional blinking motion, and a computer to which blinking-derived input commands are transmittable. The system further includes a movement sensor mounted for detecting a calibrated instantaneous head orientation of the user. The system includes a means for duplicating a portion of video data or a representation thereof that would cause corresponding images to be viewable by the user on a computer screen in response to the instantaneous head orientation and for displaying the images corresponding to the duplicated portion.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing transparent polymer with glass-like properties involves depositing silica glass molecules on a substrate to be coated through a chemical vapor deposition process prior to completing a full curing process. The chemical vapor deposition process is performed within a vacuum or ‘quasi’ vacuum atmosphere, which is held at a temperature below 30° C. Upon completion of the chemical vapor deposition process, curing the coated substrate a second time at a temperature exceeding 150° C. A transparent polymer may be manufactured according to the method described.
