  • Publication number: 20240297878
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for managing a firmware password of a User Equipment (UE) are provided. In an example, the UE determines that a first firmware password variable is indicative of a firmware password of a firmware of the UE. The UE transmits the first firmware password variable to a first computer for storage in a first dataset. The UE generates a password. The UE sets a second firmware password variable, in a second dataset stored on the UE, to the password. The UE transmits the second firmware password variable including the password to the first computer for storage in the first dataset. The UE sets the firmware password of the firmware of the UE to the second firmware password variable including the password.

  • Publication number: 20220134030
    Abstract: A pathogen detection system includes a pathogen sensing adaptor that detect pathogens present in the breathing circuit associated with a ventilated patient. A pathogen sensing adaptor may include a conduit, removable cartridges with testing strips, an optical sensor, and communication circuitry. Upon detecting a colorimetric change on the testing strip, the optical sensor generates a signal indicative of the presence and/or level of pathogens.

  • Patent number: 8771332
    Abstract: An expandable medical device having a static state and at least one expanded state, the expandable medical device in the static state including at least one first inner layer and at least one second outer layer, the outer layer having an inner surface and an outer surface, the outer layer having a closed lattice in the inner surface or the outer surface of the outer layer, wherein the lattice is open when the expandable medical device is in the at least one expanded state, and methods of making the same.

  • Patent number: 8079310
    Abstract: A vertical position compensating device for a vehicle, a vehicle using the device, and a method for controlling the vertical position of a vehicle. The vehicle has a wheel set mounted on a chassis by a primary suspension system and a body mounted on the chassis through a secondary suspension system. The device is mounted on the body. As the vehicle is loaded or unloaded the device moves vertically with the body and also moves relative to the body in proportion to the deflection of the primary suspension system. The total motion of the device is used to adjust the vertical position of the body through the secondary suspension in a direction opposite to the deflection of the body to maintain the position of the body constant relative to a datum line.
