  • Patent number: 12316784
    Abstract: An issuing authority (IA) may validate the identity of a user and issue a digital license to the user. IA may generate IA public-private key pair, and provide IA public key to the certification authority (CA). IA may sign the digital license with IA private key, and provision the signed digital license on the user device. IA may request CA to certify the digital license. CA may use IA public key to validate the digital license, and sign IA public key with CA private key, thereby generating a digital certificate associated with the issuing authority that is linked to the digital license. A relying party may use CA public key to validate the digital license. The relying party can retrieve the information from the digital license and trust that the retrieved information is legitimate.

  • Patent number: 12314716
    Abstract: Techniques described herein may be utilized to serialise and de-serialise arithmetic circuits that are utilized in the execution of computer programs. The arithmetic circuit may be utilized to build a Quadratic Arithmetic Problem (QAP) that is compiled into a set of cryptographic routines for a client and a prover. The client and prover may utilize a protocol to delegate execution of a program to the prover in a manner that allows the client to efficiently verify the prover correctly executed the program. The arithmetic circuit may comprise a set of symbols (e.g., arithmetic gates and values) that is compressed to produce a serialised circuit comprising a set of codes, wherein the set of symbols is derivable from the set of codes in a lossless manner. Serialisation and de-serialisation techniques may be utilized by nodes of a blockchain network.

  • Patent number: 12314559
    Abstract: A graphic display method and apparatus are provided. In the graphic display method, a terminal may detect a touch operation on a screen when there is a to-be-processed event; obtain touch point coordinates of the touch operation; display, in a position indicated by the touch point coordinates, a touch graphic used to indicate the touch operation, and display, on the screen based on the touch point coordinates, an operation indication graphic corresponding to the to-be-processed event. The touch graphic and the operation indication graphic are displayed on the screen to enable a user to see a current to-be-processed event in a more intuitive and vivid manner, thereby reducing a misoperation rate of a touch operation and improving operation experience of the user.

  • Patent number: 12315105
    Abstract: In an imaging method, a focal point of a focused optical beam is sequentially mechanically positioned at coarse locations in or on an integrated circuit (IC) wafer or chip. At each coarse location, a two-dimensional (2D) image or mapping tile is acquired by steering the focal point to fine locations on or in the IC wafer or chip using electronic beam steering and, with the focal point positioned at each fine location, acquiring an output signal produced in response to an electrical charge that is optically injected into the IC wafer or chip at the fine location by the focused optical beam. The 2D image or mapping tiles are combined, including stitching together overlapping 2D image or mapping tiles, to generate an image or mapping of the IC wafer or chip. The electronic beam steering may be performed using a galvo mirror. The set of coarse locations may span a three-dimensional (3D) volume.

  • Publication number: 20250161586
    Abstract: An injection device for delivery of a fluid medicament includes a housing defining a longitudinal axis and enclosing an injection mechanism. An end cap is fixed to the housing and limits the injection mechanism in a proximal direction. A closure cap is releasably connected to the end cap by a releasable snap fit connection thereby closing the injection device. The releasable snap fit connection is established before medicament delivery by relative axial movement along the longitudinal axis between the closure cap and the housing whereby a wall of the closure cap is elastically deformed, and the releasable snap fit connection is configured to be released after medicament delivery by relative rotational movement around the longitudinal axis between the closure cap and the housing whereby the wall of the closure cap is elastically deformed.

  • Publication number: 20250166879
    Abstract: Method of poling a ferroelectric medium applies a first contact surface of a first electrical contact to a first side surface section, the first contact surface smaller than the first side surface section, and applies a second contact surface of a second electrical contact to a second side surface, the second contact surface covering at least the second side surface section, and applies an electrical voltage between the first and second electrical contacts. Relative movement between the first contact surface and the ferroelectric medium in two mutually perpendicular directions sweeps the first contact surface over the first side surface section and a measure of a current flowing between the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact through the ferroelectric medium is detected and the electrical voltage controlled so that a deviation of the current from a nominal poling current is minimised. The second electrical contact is an ionic conductor.
