Abstract: Disclosed are films and a packaging for gas or vapor decontaminable packaging applications and a method for creating a sterile packaging using the same. These films are particularly useful for sterile storage and transport of objects for medical, pharmaceutical or cosmetic uses, in particular of sterile pharmaceutical primary packaging means, like vials, ampules, syringes, or cartridges. Said film comprises at least a layer of a selectively permeable non-woven, a layer of a punctured film, and an adhesive which can be activated by energy transmission. Optionally it comprises further film layers. The method for creating a sterile packaging comprises the step of hermetically closing the packaging by activating the adhesive thereby making the non-woven impermeable.

Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include identifying and notifying requestors that may be candidates for a particular autonomous vehicle in order to find those candidates that may be willing or able to relax their travel constraints to match the autonomous vehicle. A request flow may involve surfacing the potential option of matching to an autonomous vehicle before setting a specific destination. For example, the request flow may involve determining that an autonomous vehicle is sufficiently near an in-session potential requestor. Before the potential requestor enters a specific destination, the request flow may present the possibility of the potential requestor being matched with the autonomous vehicle. In some examples, the request flow may then provide available drop-off locations that are compatible with the autonomous vehicle for selection by the potential requestor. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A module connector includes a first connection part and a second connection part that can be electrically conductively connected with the first connection part. The first connection part has a first attachment element and the second connection part has a second attachment element; the first attachment element can be inserted into the second attachment element. Each of the first connection part and the second connection part has a contact protection at a side facing the other connection part. The contact protection has an outer electrically insulating collar and an electrically insulating protection pin surrounded by the outer electrically insulating collar. At least one of the first connection part and the second connection part has a current bridge between the outer electrically insulating collar and the electrically insulating protection pin. The outer electrically insulating collar and the electrically insulating protection pin extend beyond the current bridge.

Abstract: The invention provides an IPG and lead configuration which boasts both a novel optical folding assembly and an optical processor assembly which offers the advantages of low heat generation and compact package size. The invention further provides a novel heat dissipation pattern formed in the exterior of the case. The pattern ideally takes the form of closely packed hemispherical indentions on one or more of the top and bottom IPG surfaces.

Abstract: A separating layer for the transport of pharmaceutical secondary packagings and to a transport system for transporting pharmaceutical secondary packagings which comprises the separating layer are provided. The separating layer is a polymer layer having a planar section extending in an axial direction along a longitudinal axis and an elevation extending normal to the longitudinal axis. The separating layer has in the axial direction a normal spring force that is 0.2 to 5 N.

Abstract: A multi-layer sealing film has (a) a layer of a selectively permeable non-woven that is essentially impermeable to microorganisms and (b1) a first layer of film having one or more predefined cut-out regions within an area of the multi-layer sealing film that is to cover an opening of container, or (b2) a first layer of film that is essentially impermeable to a gas or vapor having a first needling, perforation and/or cut pattern within the area of the multi-layer sealing film that is to cover the opening. The layer of a selectively permeable non-woven (a) and the first layer of film (b1) or (b2) are bonded by a sealing seam configured and arranged at least partially subject to and non-overlapping with a sealing seam area for sealing the opening.

Abstract: A frame for holding a secondary pharmaceutical packaging includes: a base plate including at least two openings formed to hold the secondary pharmaceutical packaging; at least two sidewalls connected to the base plate; and at least one stacking element located on the base plate.

Abstract: A holding device is provided that has a base body having a plurality of openings in a first surface and a plurality of holding elements each having a movable surface. The plurality of holding elements are arranged with respect to the plurality of openings, respectively, such that a container extending in a respective opening of the plurality of openings is held by a respective one of the plurality of holding elements in a positive fit. The movable surface faces the container in a direction that is perpendicular to a height of the container. The holding element establishes the positive fit by a displacement movement of the movable surface. The displacement movement has a direction of movement that inclines an angle with the height of the container in a range from 60 to 120°.

Abstract: An augmented reality training system provides immersive training scenarios, and uses a scenario management engine to assess scenario results and recommend appropriate subsequent scenarios. Scenario results may be assessed based upon comparison to doctrinal methods, expert performance, peer performance, or student past performance. Based upon assessments, a student may be presented with challenge appropriate subsequent scenarios. Determination of the challenge or complexity of scenarios for purposes of such recommendations may be accomplished by determination of an objective complexity or challenge metric that is based upon the results of scenario training across multiple students. One example of such a metric is a Shannon entropy metric, which calculates the unpredictability of a scenario by comparing actions taken during the scenario to a configured depth.

Abstract: At least one closed container includes a glass container having a total height, being characterized by a center axis and including a shoulder region; and a press-fit cap closing the glass container and including a cylindrical body having an upper end and a lower end. P is any given point at the lower end of the press-fit cap that is located above the shoulder region and that lies on a straight line running parallel to the center axis and hitting an outer surface of the shoulder region at a point Q. Among these points P at the lower end of the press-fit cap point P? is the one that has a smallest distance to its corresponding point Q? and a distance between points P? and Q? on the straight line is in a range from 0.17 to 8.4 mm.

Abstract: An arrangement includes a holding device for primary packaging containers including: a first component including first receptacles and spanning a first component plane; and a second component including second receptacles and spanning a second component plane. The first component and the second component superimpose one another such that each primary packaging container can be detachably accommodated in one of the first receptacles and the second receptacles such that the first component and the second component together restrict movement of the primary packaging container in one of the component planes and in a direction which is perpendicular to one of the component planes. For each of the first receptacles, there is one of the second receptacles which has a minimum distance from the first receptacle and, for each of the first receptacles, the minimum distance is predetermined by the second component, a third component of the holding device, or both.
