Abstract: A gripper head for grabbing and fixing a tick comprises two facing gripping jaws, wherein the gripper head can adopt a state with open gripping jaws and a state with closed gripping jaws. The gripper head further comprises a holder comprising a closing spring for holding the two gripping jaws, wherein the gripping jaws are configured such that each of them has a curved outer side and a flat inner side, the closing spring acts on the two gripping jaws, and in the closed state of the gripping jaws the flat inner sides of the two gripping jaws lie on each other such that a closed body is formed. The gripper head is design to be accommodated and fastened to a tick gripper.

Abstract: Digital data is provided with a time stamp of an internal time signal of an internal clock. The internal time signal is validated by receiving and evaluating an internal broadcast or a cable signal of an external time source, from which a standard time can be derived, comparing the standard time with the internal time signal of the internal clock, and time stamping the digital data. The digital data is time stamped only if a time difference between the internal and external time signals lies within a given tolerance range. Finally, the time-stamped digital data is encrypted.
