Abstract: A database management engine provides a user interface that allows users to access and modify employee information in a database. The database includes entries for employees, and each database entry includes identifying information about the associated employee. A user can request to modify data within database entries, for instance in order to update information associated with an employee. Responsive to the request, the database management engine identifies liabilities associated with the database modification stemming from associated tax laws. Based on the identified tax liabilities, the engine computes the aggregate tax liability owed by the employer and/or employee. Before modifying a database entry, the engine modifies the user interface to include interface elements detailing the computed aggregate tax liability. The user explicitly can be required to confirm the database modification in view of the aggregate tax liability.

Abstract: An electronic component package includes a substrate and an electronic component mounted to the substrate, the electronic component including a bond pad. A first antenna terminal is electrically connected to the bond pad, the first antenna terminal being electrically connected to a second antenna terminal of the substrate. A package body encloses the electronic component, the package body having a principal surface. An antenna is formed on the principal surface by applying an electrically conductive coating. An embedded interconnect extends through the package body between the substrate and the principal surface and electrically connects the second antenna terminal to the antenna. Applying an electrically conductive coating to form the antenna is relatively simple thus minimizing the overall package manufacturing cost. Further, the antenna is relatively thin thus minimizing the overall package size.

Abstract: A hand controller apparatus for controlling a tool in a robotic surgery system has a body with a proximal end and a distally located interface end that can be coupled to an input apparatus for controlling a surgical tool. The hand controller apparatus includes a control lever attached to a pivot joint proximate a side surface of the body and extending along the body and away from the proximal end, the control lever being laterally moveable relative to the side surface of the body about the pivot joint. The control lever includes a tail region adjacent to the pivot joint and a paddle region connected to the tail region and extending toward the distally located interface end. The tail region includes an inner surface facing the body and an outer surface opposing the inner surface, and at least part of the outer surface of the tail region is outwardly curved.

Abstract: A permissions management system is disclosed for enabling a user to securely authorize a third-party system to access user account data and initiate transactions related to a user account, without disclosing to the third-party system account credentials. The system enables the user to also securely de-authorize the third-party system. For example, records may be automatically generated that securely store account information, including one or more permissions related to the account and/or the third-party. A token associated with a record may be shared with the third-party system, but neither the record itself, nor the user account credentials, may be shared with the third-party. Accordingly, the third-party may request user account data and/or initiate transactions by providing the token, but does not itself know, e.g., the user account credentials. Further, the user may set various permissions related to the token, and may also revoke the token (e.g.

Abstract: HIPAA-compliant computer security method and system for recording, using a video camera, electronic visual personal health information of at least two individuals, including an individual under care, and preventing unauthorized access of the user to the video information. The video is compared to physical attribute information of the individuals stored in the computer system's memory, and the individuals are identified by facial matching. The user's stored caseload has authorization profile information including access to individuals under care. The identified individuals are compared to the user's caseload information, and the user is granted access to part of the video of the individual under care, the video of the other individuals is blurred, and the resulting video is transmitted to the user's caseload for viewing. The video information is used to prepare automated Electronic Visit Verification (“EVV”) records.
