  • Patent number: 10675222
    Abstract: A drug dispenser assembly comprising: a drug dispenser for dispensing a drug in a dispense event; and a skinprint analyser configured to receive a skinprint, preferably a fingerprint, of a user. The skinprint analyser is further configured: to perform a verification test regarding the identity of the skinprint; to conduct a chemical analysis for the presence of a metabolite in the skinprint; and to produce data indicative of results of the verification test and the chemical analysis. The drug dispenser assembly further comprises an actuator configured to actuate a dispense event in the event that the results of one or both of the verification test and the chemical analysis meet one or more predetermined conditions.

  • Patent number: 7360443
    Abstract: A test bench for carrying out aerodynamic measurements on vehicles is equipped with at least one contact surface for detecting the vehicle weight, a running belt for simulating the roadway moving under the vehicle, and at least one measuring device for determining forces acting upon the vehicle. According to the invention, the moving belt for simulating the roadway also forms the at least one contact surface for detecting the vehicle weight, and the running belt is in its entirety supported by a weighing plate, which is disposed via a bearing device relative to a stationary environment. At least one measuring device determines the forces acting upon the vehicle as a function of the movement of the weighing plate relative to the stationary environment.
