  • Publication number: 20240113974
    Abstract: Mobile management method, system and client. Method includes receiving a DNS query for a host name from an application on client; retrieving reputation data associated with host name from a local cache on client; and determining a policy based on host name and the reputation data. Based on determined policy for the host name, blocking attempted network flows to a host corresponding to host name to produce blocked attempted network flows. Method also includes sending attempted network flow metadata related to the blocked attempted network flows to a collector on client; transmitting the attempted network flow metadata from the collector to a VPN server pool via a VPN tunnel; and producing an anomaly report from the transmitted attempted network flow metadata. The anomaly report includes at least one of anomalies, cohorts, trends, location boundaries, detected network security issues, detected compromised clients and/or optimized network usage.

  • Publication number: 20240019980
    Abstract: The present invention relates to controlling a 2D application in a mixed reality application. In order to provide further simplification in terms of operating devices and equipment for the medical personnel, a device (10) for controlling a 2D application in a mixed reality application is provided. The device comprises a 2D application interface (12), a processor (14), a mixed reality application interface (16) and a control interface (18). The 2D application interface receives data representative of a 2D application. The application comprises interactive elements providing commands for user control of the 2D application. The processor identifies and extracts the interactive elements based on the data representative of the 2D application. The processor also translates the interactive elements to user interface features of a mixed reality display application.

  • Patent number: 10184364
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for deactivating a valve actuation mechanism. In one example, a system may include a hydraulic gallery that may deliver a restricted flow of hydraulic fluid from a hydraulic flow restrictor to a pressure relief valve within a valve deactivation oil control valve, and during a second condition may deliver an unrestricted flow of hydraulic fluid from the valve deactivation oil control valve to the hydraulic flow restrictor. The hydraulic flow restrictor may comprise two vertical bores within the camshaft carrier that are fluidically coupled via a restrictive groove on the bottom surface of the camshaft carrier.

  • Publication number: 20160082670
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a stage for use in a 3D printer. The stage is designed to permit a vacuum device to be coupled thereto to ensure a substantially flat build station. The device also includes a movable surface upon which an object will be printed. Once the object is printed, the movable surface moves the printed object away from the build area of the stage so that the next object may be printed.

  • Patent number: 9183954
    Abstract: A system and method for reducing tritium migration. In one aspect, the invention is a method of reducing tritium mitigation from a spent nuclear fuel pool containing a body of tritiated water having an exposed surface, the method comprising hermetically sealing the exposed surface of the body of tritiated water with a cover movable between an open-state and a close-state.

  • Publication number: 20070187874
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing blades for surgical and other uses from either a crystalline or polycrystalline material, preferably in the form of a wafer, comprises preparing the crystalline or polycrystalline wafers by mounting them and machining trenches into the wafers. The methods for machining the trenches, which form the bevel blade surfaces, include a diamond blade saw, laser system, ultrasonic machine, a hot forge press and a router. When a router is used, through-holes are drilled in the wafer to define the starting locations of the trenches. After the trenches are formed, the wafers are placed in an etchant solution which isotropically etches the wafers in a uniform manner, such that layers of crystalline or polycrystalline material are removed uniformly, producing single or double bevel blades, with each bevel having one or more facets. Nearly any bevel angle can be machined into the wafer which remains after etching.

Nearly any angle can be machined into the wafer which remains after etching. The resulting radii of the blade edges is 5-500 nm, which is the same caliber as a diamond edged blade, but manufactured at a fraction of the cost.

  • Publication number: 20050266680
    Abstract: Ophthalmic surgical blades are manufactured from either a single crystal or poly-crystalline material, preferably in the form of a wafer. The method comprises preparing the single crystal or poly-crystalline wafers by mounting them and etching trenches into the wafers using one of several processes. Methods for machining the trenches, which form the bevel blade surfaces, include a diamond blade saw, laser system, ultrasonic machine, a hot forge press and a router. Other processes include wet etching (isotropic and anisotropic) and dry etching (isotropic and anisotropic, including reactive ion etching), and combinations of these etching steps. The wafers are then placed in an etchant solution which isotropically etches the wafers in a uniform manner, such that layers of crystalline or poly-crystalline material are removed uniformly, producing single, double or multiple bevel blades. Nearly any angle can be machined into the wafer, and the machined angle remains after etching.

  • Patent number: 5001343
    Abstract: A process for testing leaks of a package (20) comprises the steps of introducing the package (20) into a chamber (30) and pressurizing the chamber (30) with a radioisotopic gas (14). After the package (20) has been removed from the chamber (30), a plurality of detectors (46) sense the gamma-ray emission from the individual packages (29). A conveyor system (44) can be employed to move the packages (20) during high volume production.

  • Patent number: 4676661
    Abstract: The randomly-generated energy produced by decay of a radioactive source is utilized to generate timing signals for horologic and chronographic instruments such as electronic watches, clocks or chronometers. The radioactive source is implanted by ion implantation or diffusion in or near the depletion region of a P-N junction semiconductor device which may be integrated on a common semiconductor substrate with the electronic timekeeping circuitry of the horologic or chronographic instruments. Individual pulses due to beta radiation produced in the depletion region causes electron migration from the P to the N region of the device and produces electrical pulses. These pulses are amplified and counted until a preselected count is reached. When such count is reached, the timekeeping circuitry is stepped by one second or some convenient fraction thereof.
