Abstract: An improved approach is described herein wherein an automated de-identification system is provided to process the raw captured data.

Abstract: A non-volatile flip flop (NVFF) incorporates a non-volatile bit into important registers and memory structures to allow a processing state to be resumed after a power down without the need to reboot or write state data to disk. An intermittent computing device, designed for periodic, rather than constant, operation, can benefit by avoiding the need to incur a formal shutdown and writing of data to disk or non-volatile memory. Similarly, no boot or reading of state data need occur when a subsequent intermittent computing cycle occurs. Flip-flop structures that store data bits employ the NVFF capability, typically amounting to around 20% of the total number of gates in the intermittent computing device. Accordingly, the number of power consuming elements is only modestly increased, and savings achieved by avoiding the need to write state data to disk or non-volatile memory.

Data defining a user selection of operating parameters of the de-identification system are received. The user selection is analyzed for conformity with the subset of de-identification requirements. In response to determining the user selection conforms with the subset of de-identification requirements, a signal is generated indicating the conformity.

Abstract: An attachment mechanism for attaching components to a belt comprising a strap body having an inner surface and an outer surface with loop closures on the inner surface and hook closures on the outer surface. The strap body has a base tab having an aperture, and a bridge section and an overlock tab. The overlock tab passes through the aperture from an inner surface to and outer surface of the strap body and adheres to the base tab. The strap body wraps around a belt having hook closures on an inside surface. The loop closures of the base tab are adhered to the hook closures on the inside surface of the belt, the bridge section folds over a top edge of the belt, extends across an outer surface of the belt, and the overlock tab folds over a bottom edge of the belt. The loop closures on the overlock tab adhere to hook closures on the inside surface of the belt and on a base tab outer surface after the overlock tab extends through the aperture to secure the attachment mechanism.
