Title: Systems and methods for performing a reissue of a contactless card
Inventor: RULE JEFFREY
IPC: G06Q20/38
Filed: 2020-11-23
Granted: 2023-11-23
Abstract: Example embodiments relate to reissuing or otherwise altering a contactless card.  
These embodiments are particularly well-suited to an emergency reissue in which many cards 
have been compromised as the result of a data breach of a major credit card provider or 
department store. An exemplary contactless card includes a chip that stores encrypted 
authentication information, including a primary account number (PAN) that identifies the card.  
The chip may include a first applet responsible making payments with the card; the first applet 
may manage the PAN. A second applet may be capable of interacting with an outside 
application, and may serve as a bridge to the first applet. A rewrite of the PAN may be 
triggered by issuing a write command to the second applet, or by interacting with the chip in a 
predetermined manner (e.g., tapping the card on an interactable element a predetermined 
number of times).

Title: Drug delivery device
Inventor: CRONENBERG RICHARD A
IPC: A61M5/142
Filed: 2021-08-06
Granted: 2023-06-01
Abstract: The subject invention provides a drug delivery device for injecting medicament 
which includes: a tubular reservoir for accommodating a medicament; a stopper slidably 
disposed in the reservoir; a spring for moving the stopper from a first position to a second 
position in the reservoir; at least one needle, the needle having a distal end for insertion into a 
patient, and a lumen extending proximally from the distal end, the lumen being in direct or 
indirect communication with the reservoir; a needle driver for displacing the needle from a 
first state to a second state; and, an actuator. Activation of the actuator causes the spring to 
move the stopper from the first position and towards the second position, and the needle 
driver to displace the needle from the first state and towards the second state. The needle 
moves relative to, and separately from, the reservoir with the needle being displaced from the 
first state and towards the second state. Advantageously, with the subject invention, a drug 
delivery device is provided wherein a needle is moved, relative to the reservoir, in being 
displaced for injection. This permits control of the needle displacement separate from the 
reservoir.

IPC: H04L29/10
Filed: 1999-11-18
Granted: 2009-07-29
Abstract: One problem, frequently encountered with VDSL transmission systems, is that upstream FEXT produced by system users having short wires can be very strong. Users having shorter wires get high bit rates whereas users having longer wires get low bit rates. In extreme cases it may happen that users with wire lengths greater than 1000 meter cannot transmit data upstream. The present invention provides a VDST transmission system with a plurality of modems. The modems are located at varying distances from a central station. There is a target bit rate for each modem. That modems on shorter wires have control means for reducing their transmit power. This reduces the FEXT produced by these modems enabling modems on longer wires to transmit at higher bit rates.
