The disclosed embodiments provide a method for tamper-evident shipment or storage of goods. An Electrical Shield pattern is embedded in or printed on a substrate with other electrical, optical, and electronic components, communication components, semiconductors, which are attached or printed on a substrate to form a shipment bag used as a shipping container. The shield pattern can be made variable between different bags by using algorithms entered into a printer control system. The shipment bag with its components can then be assigned a unique signature which differentiates each bag. Application of encryption methods serves to guarantee the shipped goods are authentic and that were not tampered with during shipment. Digital signal processing is used to generate pedigree information, which may include items such as shipping location, serial numbers, sensor information, and lot numbers for the goods. The information related to the history of tampering attempts and other sensor status can be placed in encrypted form in an RFID tags or control or monitoring electronics which can be read by a mobile phone application or sent to a remote cloud-based server.

Provided is a grill apparatus having an elongated base assembly coupled to a firebox assembly. The base assembly includes a lid with a handle, where the lid is pivotally coupled to a base along the length of the base assembly. The base has a bottom, and a hole in a side portion that is adapted to accept an exhaust piping assembly, while the bottom of the base has a hole that substantially accommodate a fire box assembly. The firebox assembly is coupled to the base assembly and includes a firebox and at least one vent. A removable shield separates the firebox assembly from the base assembly. The shield is slightly larger than the hole in the base in at least one dimension, such that as the shield rests on the base above the hole in the base, a gap is left that allows heat and air to flow from the firebox into the base assembly.

The disclosed embodiments provide a method for tamper-proof protection of containers used for shipment of goods. An optical fiber is embedded in an Optical Shield Wallpaper which lines all interior surfaces of any size of a shipping container, package, box, barrel or other shaped container. Wallpaper is manufactured using large scale rollers that press fibers with encapsulated adhesives onto an appropriate medium. Small medicine containers are protected with a fiber optic shield and sensors manufactured using ink jet printing techniques. Light is applied to the optical fiber and a measurement of optical fiber characteristics is performed. Digital signal processing is used to generate pedigree information, which may include items such as shipping location, serial numbers and lot numbers for the goods. The status of the autonomous anti-tampering system is monitored real-time for unauthorized intrusions. Intrusions detected are relayed to an authorized recipient via a variety of communication channels.

Container tamper-proof protection by use of printed fiber optics manufacturing and integrated sensors

The disclosed embodiments include a method for tamper-proof protection of containers used for shipment of goods. The system contains a lock with electronic and mechanical components and a controller. A sensor is connected to a lock so that if forms a closed loop. The sensor can be an optical fiber or a distributed arrangement with an optical or an electrical shield. The electronics in the lock provide real time monitoring of the status of the lock. The lock cannot be opened or reproduced due to the signature of the closed loop which is stored in a remote server. Intrusions detected are relayed to an authorized recipient via a variety of communication channels. The data and control of the entire system is protected with several programs targeted to provide cybersecurity.

Die warpage is controlled for the assembly of thin dies. In one example, a semiconductor die has a back side and a front side opposite the back side. The back side has a semiconductor substrate and the front side has components formed over the semiconductor substrate in front side layers. A backside layer is formed over the backside of the semiconductor die to resist warpage of the die when the die is heated and a plurality of contacts are formed on the front side of the die to attach to a substrate.

A system and method for detecting tampering are disclosed. In one aspect, the system includes an optical fiber with a first end and a second end, the optical fiber conformed to an object. The object includes a container having multiple parts that physically alter the optical fiber when the container or at least one of the multiple parts is tampered with. The system also includes a detachable light source configured to emit a light pulse, the optical fiber configured to receive the light pulse at the first end and emit an optical signature at the second end. The system further includes a detachable optical spectral analyzer configured to capture a current optical signature from the second end, the optical spectral analyzer in communication with a data store.

Method and optical shield for detecting tampering

A method includes conforming an arrangement of an optical fiber to an object to detect tampering with the object when the optical fiber arrangement is changed, measuring an optical signature of the optical fiber arrangement in a first measurement, measuring the optical signature of the optical fiber arrangement at a time after the first measurement in a second measurement, and comparing the first and second measurements to detect tampering with the object from a change in the optical fiber arrangement. In another embodiment, an optical shield includes an optical fiber arranged to detect tampering with an object resulting from a change in the optical fiber arrangement and an optical fiber carrier coupled to the optical fiber for conforming the optical fiber arrangement to the object.

Methods, computer-readable media, and systems for scheduling the association of metadata with content. In an embodiment, event information is obtained from a virtual calendar, wherein the event information comprises at least one event detail and one or more parameters defining a time period. First metadata is generated based on the event detail, and is stored, in association with the time period, in a memory. Then, subsequently, during the time period, the first metadata may be retrieved from the memory, and associated with one or more content items generated on the device.
