Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to using smart glass and distributed ledger technology to provide secure authentication for digitally hand signing documents. Smart glasses worn by a customer may be activated via an application on a mobile device. The smart glasses may then scan the document and a biometric feature of the customer. The captured biometric feature and document content may be stored on a distributed ledger system. Based on the information stored on the distributed ledger, a unique binary code may be generated. The binary code may be converted into an image and shared with the mobile application. The image may then be embedded into the document as a digital hand signature. The document and the embedded image may be submitted to nodes of the distributed ledger for authentication of the digital hand signature.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition comprising 5 to 100 wt. % of a structured aqueous phase wherein the composition contains 0.1 to 10 wt. % sericin by weight of water, said sericin having a proportion of beta-sheet in the secondary structure that exceeds 80%. It was found that sericin having a proportion of beta-sheet in the secondary structure that exceeds 80% is an excellent water structurant and can suitably be used to structure the aqueous phase of a wide range of products, such as cosmetic products, pharmaceutical products, food products and detergent compositions.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for reducing noise when computing time-lapse differences between two or more geophysical surveys performed over the same region. In some computer-implemented embodiments, a time-lapse difference is determined between first and second data representing the first and second surveys, respectively. Based on geometry information corresponding to the second survey, first estimated data is generated representing how the first data would have looked if the second survey geometry had been used during the first survey. A noise model is generated based on differences between the first data and the first estimated data. The time-lapse difference is then adjusted using the noise model, thereby reducing noise in the time-lapse difference caused by differences between the geometries of the first and second surveys.
