    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for displaying an image of a tracked tool on a user interface, wherein at least a portion of the tool is hidden from view in any image on a user interface at any point during a procedure. The tool may include a cutting tool having jaws for clamping a material and a knife for cutting the clamped material, and superimposing an indicator of a knife position on the display during and/or after cutting. The knife position may include a location and/or orientation of the knife, including any or all of a pre-cut, cut-complete, cut-incomplete and an exposed position. The disclosed systems and methods allows a user to view the knife position in applications where the knife may not be visible to a user, which is particularly useful for clamping and cutting a body tissue with a robotic surgical system in minimally invasive procedures.

    Abstract: An armor plated assembly (20) and a protective wall system (120) containing a protective material. The armor plated assembly (20) comprises of a container (22) having opposing walls (26) for encompassing the protective material. The assembly (20) includes an armor device (24) having a first plate (48) and a second plate (50) with one of the opposing walls (26) sandwiched between the first plate (48) and the second plate (50) securing the armor device (24) to the container (22). The armor device (24) impedes the penetration of a projectile through the armor plated assembly (20). The protective wall system (120) includes at least two of the armor plated assemblies (20) with a mechanical connection (140) between the armor devices (126, 134) of the armor plated assemblies (20) for aligning and securing the assemblies (20) in a stacked orientation.

    Abstract: Media content to be place shifted is received at the local user device along with a place shift enabled parameter that contains data associated with the received media content and that indicates whether the received media content is authorized to be place shifted. A user command to place shift the received media content to the remote user device is also received. It is then determined, by analyzing the place shift enabled parameter, whether the received media content is authorized to be place shifted and based on this determination the place shifting of the received content to a remote device is allowed or impaired.

    Abstract: A “Firmware-Based TPM” or “fTPM” ensures that secure code execution is isolated to prevent a wide variety of potential security breaches. Unlike a conventional hardware based Trusted Platform Module (TPM), isolation is achieved without the use of dedicated security processor hardware or silicon. In general, the fTPM is first instantiated in a pre-OS boot environment by reading the fTPM from system firmware or firmware accessible memory or storage and placed into read-only protected memory of the device. Once instantiated, the fTPM enables execution isolation for ensuring secure code execution. More specifically, the fTPM is placed into protected read-only memory to enable the device to use hardware such as the ARM® architecture's TrustZone™ extensions and security primitives (or similar processor architectures), and thus the devices based on such architectures, to provide secure execution isolation within a “firmware-based TPM” without requiring hardware modifications to existing devices.

    Abstract translation: 基于固件的TPM或fTPM确保安全代码执行被隔离,以防止各种潜在的安全漏洞。 与传统的基于硬件的可信平台模块(TPM)不同,在不使用专用安全处理器硬件或硅片的情况下实现隔离。 通常,通过从系统固件或固件可访问的存储器或存储器读取fTPM并将其放置在设备的只读受保护的存储器中,fTPM首先在前OS引导环境中实例化。 一旦实例化,fTPM就能实现执行隔离,以确保执行安全的代码。 更具体地说,将fTPM放置到受保护的只读存储器中,以使设备能够使用诸如ARM®架构的TrustZone™扩展和安全原语(或类似的处理器架构)之类的硬件,从而使基于这种架构的设备提供 基于固件的TPM中的安全执行隔离,而不需要对现有设备进行硬件修改。
