Abstract: A faceted architectural fixture is provided that include one or more folded elongated strips, each providing a series of alternating faceted surfaces.

Abstract: Classifiers may be used to analyze a valid certificate received from an unverified entity in an attempt to establish a secure connection with the unverified entity. The classifiers may determine a probability that the certificate is being used improperly by an unauthorized third party. An action may be taken based on the probability, such as allowing the unverified entity to establish a secure connection, blocking the unverified entity from establishing a secure connection, etc. The classifiers may be trained by employing machine learning techniques on a collection of valid, authorized certificates. Additionally, or alternatively, received certificates may be sampled for further analysis based on the probability and/or predefined sampling percentages.

Abstract: The invention provides lattice-configured panel fixtures that include a plurality of rods joined together in a predetermined pattern, articles for supporting the panel fixtures from a support structure, and automated systems and methods for manufacturing the panel fixtures.

Abstract: A computing device described herein utilizes a secure cryptoprocessor of the computing device to compute a response to a request for authorization received from another local or remote device. The secure cryptoprocessor computes the response based on protected authorization credentials stored by the secure cryptoprocessor for one or more devices. The computing device then provides the computed response to the other device to cause the other device to grant or deny authorization. The computing device may also display information associated with the request for authorization, receive input indicating approval of the request, and utilize the secure cryptoprocessor in response to the received input.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards an automated bending device for bending a strip of material into a desired shape. Particularly towards an automated bending device for bending a strip of metal into at least one side panel used to form three-dimensional letters in signs.

Abstract: A slurry is prepared in which nanoparticles of a pharmaceutical ingredient have been formed within a solvent. A solid formulation of the nanoparticles of the pharmaceutical ingredient is prepared from the slurry, without employing electrostatic collection. The solid formulation of the nanoparticles includes at least micron-sized particles.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical ingredient is dissolved within a solvent. The solvent is evaporated until nanoparticles of the pharmaceutical ingredient are at least partially formed without employing a substrate for them. A portion of the solvent remains, within which the nanoparticles are located.

Abstract: A method of processing a drug is provided that includes dissolving the drug in a solvent to form a drug-containing solution. Droplets of the drug-containing solution are then jetted into a moving volume of gas. The jetted droplets of drug-containing solution have a maximum size of about 1 micron or less.
