Abstract: Contactless operation of a device is provided via a mobile pointing apparatus and a receiving arrangement associated with the device. The mobile pointing apparatus includes a signal emitter for emitting an optical or electromagnetic signal, and the receiving arrangement associated with the device determines a pointing target of the mobile pointing apparatus relative to the device based on the signal emitted by the mobile pointing apparatus and triggers a function of the device based on the pointing target of the mobile pointing apparatus.

Abstract: A healthcare-data-management system configured to control data transfers retrieves and stores a user's interaction data from a first reinforced-protection database. The interaction data is used to generate an activity gauge of a user to perform or to trigger performance of a user procedure stored on the first reinforced-protection database or a second reinforced-protection database. The user procedure is associated with a data transfer and depends on the activity gauge.

Abstract: A system for managing analysis of health information includes data-storage components configured for storage and retrieval of health information, sealed processing components configured for performing a conformity evaluation of data related to the health information and analytics data related to analysis requests, distributed-ledger components configured for regulation of data exchange between components of the system, and sealed processing components configured for performing specific data analytics on specific health information according to the conformity evaluation. The sealed processing components are characterized by a non-editable regulation on the distributed-ledger components preventing the sealed processing components from transmitting, to an external destination, certain protected data related to the specific data analytics on specific health information.

Abstract: An otoscope, preferably for medically examining the human auditory canal, comprising a handle and a head piece, whereby the head piece is connected to an ear funnel, which is provided for partially inserting into an auditory canal, while forming an optical channel therein. The optical channel is terminated on the head piece, specifically, on the side thereof facing away from the ear funnel with an integrated magnifying lens for enabling an enlarged viewing of the auditory canal. A luminous means for illuminating the auditory canal is assigned to the optical channel, whereby the luminous means is at least one light-emitting diode, preferably a white light-emitting diode.

Abstract: A flashlight having at least one shaft piece for enclosing at least one battery as the voltage supply, and having at least one flashlight head (2) enclosing a plurality of white LED's (14) as illuminants. The flashlight head is connected to the shaft piece (3), and has an electrical connector coupled to the illuminants, and a connector piece (17) for connection to the battery. The connector piece (17) corresponds substantially with a flashlight bulb socket, wherein the connector piece (17) having a coaxial ring electrode (21), disposed radially on the outer side and connected with the ground pole, and a pin electrode (20) disposed concentrically on the inner side for connection with the battery of the flashlight.
