Abstract: Embodiments described herein are configured for the provision of secure keys and the applications enabled thereby. For instance, an application may read in a first globally-unique value of a pair of globally-unique values from a physically-implemented machine-readable format. The application provides the first globally-unique value, along with a globally-unique identifier of the application, to a database. The database determines a globally-unique value associated with the first globally-unique value, designates the associated globally-unique value as a secure key, and associates the secure key with the application using the application's globally-unique identifier. The application then instructs a user to read in the second globally-unique value from a physically-implemented machine-readable format, which should match the globally-unique value determined by the database of the pair, and designates the second globally-unique value as the secure key.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for the provisioning of secure keys to an application. A first globally-unique value of a plurality of globally-unique values is received via a user interface of the application. The first globally-unique value and an application identifier of the application is provided to a computing system via a network. The computing system is configured to determine a second globally-unique value and a third globally-unique value associated with the first globally-unique value based on the application identifier. The second globally-unique value is then received via the user interface. The second globally-unique value is designated as a first secure key. The first secure key is stored in a first location of a memory of the computing device allocated for the application. A third globally-unique value is received via the user interface. The third globally-unique value is designated as a buffer key.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to a contact avoidance system for preventing epidemics. A database maintains a record for each person enrolled in the system. The record comprises a risk level identifier that indicates a disease infection risk for the user. When devices carried by users are proximate to each other, the devices exchange identifiers that uniquely and anonymously identify the users. At least one device provides the identifier received thereby to the database, which retrieves the record associated with the identifier and determines a risk level for the user associated with the identifier. The risk level is returned to the device, which issues an alert if the risk level indicates that the other user is or may be infected with a disease. The database also updates the risk level associated with users that were determined to be proximate to a user determined to be infected with the disease.

Abstract: Systems, devices, apparatuses, and methods are described for providing robust RFID security and secure targeted information dissemination. Randomized identifiers for RFID tags associated with products for sale are read by readers of user devices having their own randomized identifiers. Information relating to the products is provided to the user devices by information retrieval systems without exposing information related to the user device or a user thereof. Information security is provided through the use of the randomized identifiers that act as proxies or surrogates for users and user devices. Based on the products and associated RFID tags read by the user device, a retailer or manufacturer provides targeted advertising and sales incentives to the user device through the information retrieval system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for integrated circuit controlled ejection system (ICCES) for massively parallel integrated circuit assembly (MPICA). A unique Integrated Circuit (IC) die ejection head assembly system is described, which utilizes Three-Dimensional (3D) printing to achieve very high resolution manufacturing to meet the precision tolerances required for very small IC die sizes.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to the manufacturing of tag devices, authenticating such devices, authorizing a tag reader apparatus to read tag devices external to the tag reader apparatus, and enabling an authorized tag reader apparatus to form a secured network comprising a plurality of devices, each of which comprise a tag device. The secured network may be formed by simply reading tag devices associated with consumer devices that a user desires to be in the secured network using the authorized tag reader apparatus. The random identification numbers associated with the plurality of consumer devices' tag devices may be used to retrieve instructions that are implemented by the consumer device(s) to form/configure the secured network. The authorized tag reader apparatus is the only device that is enabled to subsequently configure/reconfigure the network and/or the devices included therein, thereby securing the network for use only by the authorized tag reader apparatus.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to ultrasound (acoustic) data transmission systems, in particular data transmission over wide-band acoustic channels with frequency-dependant multi-path propagation. More specifically, embodiments of the invention involve increasing the bit rate in the acoustic channel by means of utilization of the entire ultrasound spectrum available for data transmission inside a human body.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses in a communication system for interfacing data. The method includes receiving a tag identifier and an application identifier from an application at a user device; authenticating the application using the application identifier; determining a manufacturer identifier that corresponds to the tag identifier in an identifier repository; transmitting the application identifier, the tag identifier and the manufacturer identifier to a computing device associated with the manufacturer identifier; receiving the manufacturer item identifier, the tag identifier, the application identifier, and specific item information from the manufacturer computing device; and transmitting the manufacturer item identifier, the tag identifier and the specific item information to the application to enable the specific item information can be displayed on the user device.

Abstract: An ingestible image scanning pill captures high resolution images of the GI tract as it passes through. Images communicated externally have exact location determination. Image processing software discards duplicate information and stitches images together, line scan by line scan, to replicate a complete GI tract as if it were stretched out in a straight line. A fully linear image is displayed to a medical professional as if the GI tract had been stretched in a straight line, cut open, laid flat out on a bench for viewing—all without making any incisions in a live patient.

Abstract: Methods and systems for manufacturing a swallowable sensor device are disclosed. Such a method includes mechanically coupling a plurality of internal components, wherein the plurality of internal components includes a printed circuit board having a plurality of projections extending radially outward. A cavity is filled with a potting material, and the mechanically coupled components are inserted into the cavity. The cavity may be pre-filled with the potting material, or may be filled after the mechanically coupled components have been inserted therein. A distal end of each projection abuts against a wall of the cavity thereby preventing the potting material from covering each distal end. The cavity is sealed with a cap causing the potting material to harden within the sealed cavity to form a housing of the swallowable sensor device, wherein the distal end of each projection is exposed to an external environment of the swallowable sensor device.
