Abstract: An ophthalmic device includes an optic including an optic axis and a closed-loop haptic structure coupled to the optic via a frame surrounding the optic, the closed-loop haptic structure including a closed loop extending from first and second attachment points to the frame. The closed loop includes a first hinge and a second hinge. The first hinge has a first section having a first component extending in a first angular direction, a second section having a second component extending in a second angular direction opposite to the first angular direction, and a first connecting section between the first section and the second section. The second hinge has a third section having a third component extending in the second angular direction, a fourth section having a fourth component extending in the first angular direction, the fourth section being connected to the second section to form the closed loop.

Abstract: A method for balancing sensors within a sensor system, the method including receiving, at a gateway, data from a plurality of sensors, each of the plurality of sensors being connected to one of a plurality of sensor modules or the gateway; determining, at the gateway, that a signal strength from a first sensor falls below a threshold, the first sensor being one of the plurality of sensors; and based on the determining, allocating the first sensor to connect to a different one of the plurality of sensor modules, or to the gateway if connected to one of the plurality of sensor modules.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include processes that manage a cryptographically secure generation and exchange of data between network-connected systems operating within a computing environment using a permissioned distributed ledger. For example, and based on secure interaction with a distributed smart contract maintained within ledger blocks of the permissioned distributed ledger, an apparatus and a counterparty system may generate local symmetric encryption keys that facilitate a secure communication session between the apparatus and the counterparty system. Using the symmetric encryption key, the apparatus may generate a cryptographically secure representation of generated or obtained data, which may be transmitted to the counterparty system across the secure communications channel.

Abstract: The disclosed exemplary embodiments include computer-implemented systems, apparatuses, and processes that, among other things, generate and provision digital tokens based on dynamically obtained contextual data. For example, an apparatus may receive first information that characterizes an exchange of data initiated by a first application program executed by the apparatus, and may generate and transmit a signal to a computing system through a programmatic interface associated with a second application program executed by the apparatus. In some instances, the first signal may include the first information and data that instructs the computing system to obtain a digital token representative of a data type available for use in the data exchange. The apparatus may also receive a second signal that includes the digital token and based on the digital token, perform operations that present second information characterizing the available data type on an interface.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include computer-implemented systems and processes that facilitate an initiation and a performance of one or more trustless transactions between counterparty devices operating within a trusted, secure computer-networking environment. For example, an apparatus may receive, through a touchscreen display unit, first data that identifies a session identifier associated with a transaction session, and may determine a validity of the session identifier based on the received first data. The apparatus may establish the transaction session in response to the determined validity of the session identifier. The transaction session may be associated with first and second operations characterized by values of corresponding parameters.
