| 20090105710 | Mechanical Distractor To Facilitate Surgery And Evaluation Of Joints - A medical apparatus having a tensioning device secured to a fixed point; a wire or pin inserted transversely through a bone; and a tension line connecting the tensioning device to the wire or pin. The tension line transmits a force from the tensioning device to the wire or pin to facilitate distraction of a joint of a subject. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20110004216 | TIBIAL RASP - Methods and apparatus for arthroscopically-assisted preparation of the tibia to accept an unicompartmental implant that includes the step of removing bone from the tibial plateau to correct depth, diameter and proper angle by employing a tibial rasp comprising a cutter with a plurality of teeth on the bottom surface and a side surface (for example, the front side). The tibial rasp may be used in conjunction with an additional starter rasp that can cut only in one direction (for example, cutting to establish only the depth of the tunnel or socket). | 01-06-2011 |

| 20110047708 | MATTRESSES WITH HEAT DISSIPATION - In one embodiment, a mattress comprises a core and a cushion layer positioned above the core. A fibrous air spacer layer is positioned above the cushion layer, and a layer of visco-elastic foam is positioned above the fibrous layer. This permits the fibrous layer to be sandwiched between the cushion layer and the layer of visco-elastic material. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110173757 | CUSHIONING DEVICES AND METHODS - A cushion may be constructed of a spacer material having a top layer, a bottom layer and a plurality of loosely arranged spacer elements that extend between the top and bottom layers so as to maintain the top layer and the bottom layer spaced apart from each other. An elastomeric gel material is incorporated into the top layer and/or the bottom layer. The gel material may also extend into at least a portion of the spacer elements. | 07-21-2011 |

| 20080268776 | Method and Apparatus for Secure Pairing of Bluetooth Devices - Embodiments of the invention generally provide a method and apparatus for secure pairing of Bluetooth devices that supports the detection of man-in-the-middle attacks. One embodiment of a method for pairing a first Bluetooth device and a second Bluetooth device includes sending, by the first Bluetooth device, a series of audio tones to the second Bluetooth device, comparing the series of audio tones to a verification value computed by the second Bluetooth device and pairing with the second Bluetooth device if the verification value corresponds to the series of audio tones. Another embodiment of a method for pairing a first Bluetooth device and a second Bluetooth device includes receiving, at the second Bluetooth device, a series of audio tones from the first Bluetooth device, comparing the series of audio tones to a first verification value computed by the second Bluetooth device and pairing with the first Bluetooth device if the series of audio tones corresponds to the first verification value. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090068946 | METHOD AND APPARATUS THAT MITIGATES THE EFFECTS OF BLUETOOTH-BASED DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACKS AGAINST MOBILE DEVICES - A method and apparatus that mitigates the effects of a Bluetooth-based Denial of Service (DoS) attack on a Bluetooth-enabled mobile communications device is disclosed. The method may include determining if the mobile communications device is under a DoS attack, wherein if it is determined that the mobile communications device is under a DoS attack, the method may include temporarily disabling Bluetooth services that were enabled using a first Bluetooth address, storing the first Bluetooth address in a memory in the mobile communications device, changing the first Bluetooth address to a second Bluetooth address, and enabling Bluetooth services using the second Bluetooth address. | 03-12-2009 |
| 20110320809 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR KEY REVOCATION IN AN ATTRIBUTE-BASED ENCRYPTION SCHEME - A method and apparatus for key revocation in an attribute-based encryption scheme is provided herein. Prior to operation, a key management service performs a randomized setup algorithm resulting in the generation of public parameters and the key management service's master secret, MK. During operation, the key management service is provided with verified user attribute information. The key management service creates keys for users based on their list of attributes. The keys can then be used to decode appropriate ciphertext. During the key creation, each attribute is associated with a particular text string. As attributes are revoked, the text string is updated. | 12-29-2011 |

| 20110059009 | Thermochemical Hydrogen Produced From A Vanadium Decomposition Cycle - A thermochemical water-splitting process all reactions of which operate at relatively low temperatures and high efficiencies, and in which relatively inexpensive materials and processing methods are made possible. This invention involves the decomposition of a metal halide compound, i.e., one which is capable of being reduced from a higher oxidation state to lower oxidation state, e.g. vanadium chloride III→vanadium dichloride. The process is cyclic and regenerative, and the only net inputs are water and heat; and the only net outputs are hydrogen and oxygen. The process makes it possible to utilize a wide variety of available heat, including solar, sources for the energy input. | 03-10-2011 |

| 20120021303 | ELECTRICALLY RECHARGEABLE, METAL-AIR BATTERY SYSTEMS AND METHODS - The invention provides for a fully electrically rechargeable metal-air battery systems and methods of achieving such systems. A rechargeable metal air battery cell may comprise a metal electrode an air electrode, and an aqueous electrolyte separating the metal electrode and the air electrode. In some embodiments, the metal electrode may directly contact the electrolyte and no separator or porous membrane need be provided between the air electrode and the electrolyte. Rechargeable metal air battery cells may be electrically connected to one another through a centrode connection between a metal electrode of a first battery cell and an air electrode of a second battery cell. Air tunnels may be provided between individual metal air battery cells. In some embodiments, an electrolyte flow management system may be provided. | 01-26-2012 |
