Abstract: A microfluidic system may include a microfluidic chip having a non-conductive substrate and wells connected in common to a microfluidic channel within the non-conductive substrate. Each well may have a galvanic contact with a first portion at an upper surface of the sample well and a second portion that extends into the non-conductive substrate. A plurality of electrodes may be provided as part of an electrical interface, with each electrode configured to contact a respective galvanic contact of the microfluidic chip. The electrical interface may also include at least one shared power amplifier that is configured to generate a power signal (e.g., constant current, constant voltage, pulsed power signal). A selector may be configured to receive the generated power signal from the shared power amplifier and configured to select at least one of the plurality of electrodes and output the received power signal thereto.

Abstract: Technologies for sensor privacy on a computing device include receiving, by a sensor controller of the computing device, sensor data from a sensor of the computing device; determining a sensor mode for the sensor; and sending privacy data in place of the sensor data in response to a determination that the sensor mode for the sensor is set to a private mode. The technologies may also include receiving, by a security engine of the computing device, a sensor mode change command from a user of the computing device via a trusted input/output path of the computing device; and sending a mode command to the sensor controller to set the sensor mode of the sensor based on the sensor mode change command, wherein the sending the mode command comprises sending the mode command over a private bus established between the security engine and the sensor controller. Other embodiments are described herein.
