According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a surface mountable card reader that comprises a mounting bracket for attaching to a vending machine. The surface mountable card reader also includes a card reader housing that extends outward from the mounting bracket. The housing, which includes a channel spaced outwardly from the mounting bracket for receiving a magnetic stripe card, comprises a radio frequency (RF) proximity reader that is adapted for receiving data via an RF signal from a contactless card. The housing also comprises a magnetic stripe reader that is adapted for receiving data from magnetic stripe cards that pass through the channel. | 10-02-2008 |
20100024046 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTING A LATERAL INTRUSION OF A SECURE ELECTRONIC COMPONENT ENCLOSURE - Methods and systems for detecting lateral intrusion of a secure electronic component enclosure are disclosed. According to one system, the system includes a secure enclosure for enclosing at least one electronic component. The secure enclosure includes a first and a second printed circuit board (PCB) and a security ring sandwiched between the first and second PCBs defining an interior region for enclosing the at least one electronic component. The PCBs define opposite sides of the enclosure and the security ring defines lateral surfaces of the enclosure. The lateral surfaces defined by the security ring are wrapped by at least two wires that define at least two circuits. An intrusion detection module detects an intrusion of the secure enclosure based on a condition of the at least two circuits. | 01-28-2010 |

20130225955 | DETERMINATION OF TISSUE OXYGENATION IN VIVO - A system and method for noninvasively determining the oxygenation of a tissue, for example, a muscle, in vivo uses optical methods to optically interrogate the tissue in both a visible wavelength range and a near infrared (NIR) wavelength range. The illuminating light is sculpted in intensity to approximately match the absorbance spectrum, for example, with the visible light having an intensity an order of magnitude greater than the light. Training data is obtained from healthy patients in both the visible and NIR ranges simultaneously and used to calculate muscle oxygenation. | 08-29-2013 |
