  • Publication number: 20240126105
    Abstract: A measurement system for measuring a position of an eyebox of a virtual image of a pair of spectacles that can be worn on the head of a user can include a holding device for holding the spectacles at a predefined position, and a projection area element, onto which light beams that generate a virtual image can be projected via the first spectacle lens when the spectacles are held by the holding device. The projection area element is arranged at such a position in relation to the first spectacle lens that when the spectacles are held by the holding device, the position of the projection area element at least partially corresponds to the position of a pupil of the user when the user wears the spectacles on the head.

  • Publication number: 20240104193
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for direct assignment of physical devices to confidential virtual machines (VMs). At a first guest privilege context of a guest partition, a direct assignment of a physical device associated with a host computer system to the guest partition is identified. The guest partition includes the first guest privilege context and a second guest privilege context, which is restricted from accessing memory associated with the first guest privilege context. The guest partition corresponds to a confidential VM, such that a memory region associated with the guest partition is inaccessible to a host operating system. It is determined, based on a policy, that the physical device is allowed to be directly assigned to the guest partition. Communication between the physical device and the second guest privilege context is permitted, such as by exposing the physical device on a virtual bus and/or forwarding an interrupt.

  • Patent number: 8285731
    Abstract: A road pricing smart client and method for a road pricing system enabling the removal of information from the positioning data describing the itinerary which suggest private data such as travelling speed and itinerary of the originator of the data. Accordingly, the smart client and method is configured to re-sample the original positioning points of the route into equidistant sections, remove timing information from the positioning data, slice the re-sampled route into slices shaped as those provided by other road users by employing a common “virtual grid”. By transmitting the slices in randomized order with an arbitrary delay, coherence of slices corresponding to formerly neighboring portions of the itinerary, are not correlated anymore. However, there is still enough information provided to the toll system to send an excerpt of the fee database allowing the smart pricing client or method to calculate the occurred fees.
