  • Publication number: 20250142751
    Abstract: A protective shell for a portable fingerprint and/or palmprint acquisition device includes: a first housing designed to receive the portable acquisition device; a second housing including a retaining device for retaining the connector-equipped end of a connecting cable for the portable acquisition device; and a dividing partition between the first housing and the second housing. The dividing partition includes an opening establishing communication between the first housing and the second housing. The opening is designed to have passing through it the connector of the connecting cable and to form a fluidtight seal around the connector.

  • Publication number: 20140000077
    Abstract: A method is provided for producing a metallic catalyst support. In producing the metallic catalyst support, a first metal foil having a planar profile or slightly corrugated profile, a second metal foil having a corrugated profile and an external cylinder are prepared. The first and second metal foils are rolled up in a multilayered superimposed state to form a honeycomb body with a spiral roll form. The honeycomb body is fitted into the external cylinder, which has an inside diameter larger than an outside diameter of the honeycomb body. Pressure is simultaneously applied to the external cylinder into which the honeycomb body has been fitted and to the honeycomb body from outside towards inside of the external cylinder to squeeze-down and to induce plastic deformation in an outside edge section of the honeycomb body so that tight contact is made with the external cylinder.

  • Publication number: 20080313473
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a surveillance tool for managing security of mass storage devices. The method and surveillance tool installs a surveillance tool on a computer, and verifies whether there is a mass storage device connected to the computer. Then, the method determines whether the mass storage device is secured with an appropriate encryption tool, and if the mass storage device is not secured with the appropriate encryption tool, the method prevents use of the mass storage device and secures the mass storage device.

  • Publication number: 20080302672
    Abstract: A sensor system for measuring a plurality of chemical species is disclosed. The sensor system includes a plurality of semiconductor device sensor elements, wherein each sensor element includes at least one wide band gap semiconductor layer and at least one catalytic layer configured to have an electrical property modifiable on exposure to an analyte including one or more chemical species; and an acquisition and analysis system configured to receive sensor signals from the plurality of sensor elements and to use multivariate analysis techniques to analyze the sensor signals to provide multivariate analyte measurement data.

  • Publication number: 20080249194
    Abstract: This document relates to a stable emulsion comprising a continuous phase and a dispersed phase comprising droplets. The droplets are at least partially covered with a powder and the powder comprises particles having an average size which is at least 10 times smaller than the average size of the droplets. A process for preparing the emulsion is also presented.

  • Publication number: 20080235521
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an encryption tool for securing electronic data storage devices. The method and encryption tool of the present invention install a file system on the electronic data storage device. Then, an input module of the encryption tool receives a user password. A key cryptography unit generates, from the user password, at least one key. A storage module stores the at least one key on the electronic data storage device. All data that is to be stored on the electronic data storage devices is encrypted using one of the at least one key. In accordance with some embodiments of the invention, the electronic data storage device is further filled with insignificant data.
