Abstract: A safety gate monitoring module is configured to monitor a state of a safety gate. A base device includes an actuator receptacle configured to receive an actuator and generates the safety gate signal in response to the actuator being inserted into the actuator receptacle. The base device includes a first interface, an axis, and a first end face arranged transversely to the axis. A mounting bracket includes a second interface configured to be coupled to the first interface of the base device in a first position, a second position rotated clockwise by 90° with respect to the first position, and a third position rotated clockwise by 90° with respect to the second position. The first and second interfaces include a mechanical blocking device that prevents coupling of the first and second interfaces in a fourth position rotated clockwise by 90° with respect to the third position.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for comparing follow-up medical findings includes receiving image data showing a body part of a patient at a first time and retrieving, from a database, reference data associated to the image data. The reference data includes reference biometric data and one or more reference medical findings. Thereby the reference biometric data and the one or more reference medical findings have been extracted from reference image data depicting the body part of the patient at a second time, different than the first time. The method further includes processing the received image data to extract, from the image data, biometric data corresponding to the reference biometric data and one or more medical findings; performing a registration of the extracted biometric data with the reference biometric data; and comparing the extracted medical findings with the reference medical findings using the registration.

Abstract: Techniques of storing and retrieving medical data and information are provided. Medical result information can be stored on a long-term data repository in a shared network, e.g., the Internet. Pseudonymized identifiers of patients can be used to retrieve such data and information.

Abstract: A method for setting up a subscriber identity module for agreeing one or several exchange keys, between a subscriber identity module and a provisioning server includes generating one or several exchange keys from keys of the provisioning server and of the subscriber identity module on a production server and are transmitted into the subscriber identity module and stored, so that the subscriber identity module is put particularly into a state as though it had generated the exchange keys itself. In a method for agreeing one or several exchange keys, between a subscriber identity module and a provisioning server, the subscriber identity module sends its public key to the provisioning server, which subsequently generates the exchange keys.
