  • Publication number: 20250119412
    Abstract: A system and method for secure wireless control of a device including, but not limited to, replay attack protection, man-in-the-middle protection, data obfuscation, and challenge-response authentication. The system includes a control device, a controlled device interface, a controlled device, a control device interface, and a wireless link. The controlled device interface and the control device interface manage secure communications between the control device and the controlled device over the wireless link. The controlled device can include a medical device such as, for example, but not limited to, an insulin pump and a wheelchair.

  • Publication number: 20240228258
    Abstract: A method and computer program product for defining a PWM drive signal having a defined voltage potential. The PWM drive signal has a plurality of “on” portions and a plurality of “off” portions that define a first duty cycle for regulating, at least in part, a flow rate of a pump assembly. At least a portion of the “on” portions of the PWM drive signal are pulse width modulated to define a second duty cycle for the at least a portion of the “on” portions of the PWM drive signal. The second duty cycle regulates, at least in part, the percentage of the defined voltage potential applied to the pump assembly.

  • Publication number: 20240228798
    Abstract: An RFID system includes an RFID antenna assembly configured to be positioned on a product module assembly of a processing system. The product module assembly is configured to releasably engage at least one product container. A first RFID tag assembly configured to be positioned on the at least one product container. The at least one product container is configured to position the first RFID tag assembly within a detection zone of the RFID antenna assembly whenever the product module assembly releasably engages the at least one product container.
