International Classification:

G06F 7/04
G06F 11/30

US Classification:

726 2, 713189

Abstract:

A computing device () includes a trusted execution environment (TEE) manager () that manages a switchover from non-trusted software () to trusted software (). The TEE manager () includes memory () configured to store password-bearing, immediate-operand instructions (). At the point of switching between the non-trusted software () and the trusted software () the memory () may be accessed as instruction fetches, and its contents fetched into a CPU core () as instructions. Immediate-operand portions () of the immediate-operand instructions () provide passwords, which are written back into guess registers () within the TEE manager (). When a predetermined relationship between the instructions () and guesses in guess registers () is identified, actual execution of the immediate-operand instructions () is verified, the TEE mode of operation is signaled, and security-sensitive hardware () is enabled for use by a privileged routine () portion of the trusted software ().

Appl. No.:

5/896812

Jan T. Freier - Minneapolis MN
Ronald B. Harvey - Minneapolis MN

Assignee:

Pako Corporation - Minneapolis MN

International Classification:

G03B 2778

US Classification:

355 38

Abstract:

An automatic system for classifying photographic negatives containing snow or beach scenes measures the red, green, and blue densities of the negative to be printed. Signals indicative of red, green, and blue exposure times are derived from these measured densities, and the signal indicative of the blue exposure time is compared to the signals indicative of the red and green exposure times. The results of this comparison indicate whether a snow or beach scene is present. To determine the amount of density correction, if any, the densities of the negative at a plurality of points are measured. The extent of the density correction is determined by the number of points whose density is within a predetermined interval of the maximum density measured from any one of the points.

Assignee:

Pako Corporation - Minneapolis MN

International Classification:

G03B 2758

US Classification:

355 74

Abstract:

A paper mask produces even width borders on bordered photographic prints even if the unexposed photographic print paper is misaligned, angularly mistracking, or wandering in alignment through roll feeding, or if the width of the paper varies. The paper mask apparatus includes a base which is mounted on the paper deck of the printer and front and rear guides which are movably mounted to the base and have masking lips which overhang the longitudinal edges of the print paper. The front and rear guides are generally parallel to one another and are urged toward one another by bias springs. A separate masking frame of the desired print size is mounted to one of the two guides and moves with that guide to define transverse masking edges.

Assignee:

Pako Corporation - Minneapolis MN

International Classification:

G03B 2778

US Classification:

355 38

Abstract:

A photographic printer includes a system for indicating the direction of movement of the dichroic filters required to re-establish color balance whenever a setup is changed. Signals are stored for each of the plurality of setups which are determinative of the desired filter position for achieving color balance with that setup. When one of the setups is selected, a parameter is sensed which is related to the filter position. The signals generated as a function of the sensed parameter are compared to the stored signals, and an indication of the direction of movement, if any, necessary to move the filters to the desired filter positions for that selected setup is provided.

International Classification:

G06F 1100
G06K 112

US Classification:

2353031

Abstract:

A system and method for reading machine-readable information from a carrier and printing information onto said carrier or other means is presented. The system comprises a reader means, storage means, printer means, enable means, read repeat means and annunciator means. Circuitry is provided fordetermining when an unsuccessful scan has resulted and thereafter commanding a rescan of the code until a successful scan is obtained or a predetermined limited number of unsuccessful rescans have been completed. The system may include means for modifying the relative position of the scanning means with respect to the carrier during successive rescans. When successful read and print cycles are completed, the carrier means is positioned appropriately for human retrieval. An annuciator means is employed to signal the human controller when the allowable number of rescans has been exhausted without successfully reading the coded information. The system further provides apparatus for adjusting the alignment of the printer means.

Pako Corporation - Minneapolis MN

International Classification:

G03B 2778

US Classification:

355 38

Abstract:

An automatic photographic printer includes a sensor system for providing density signals indicative of measured optical density of a photographic film at a plurality of defined areas of the film. Photographic films containing landscape type scenes, snow/beach type scenes, and other scenes which might be incorrectly identified as subject density failures, are identified. The identified films are excluded from receiving a subject density failure exposure correction, while the remaining films are subjected to an automatic subject density failure exposure correction which is derived from the density signals.

International Classification:

G03B 2773
G03B 2780

US Classification:

355 38

Abstract:

A photographic printer includes a sensor system for measuring the optical characteristics of each photographic film frame to be printed at a plurality of defined areas. Based upon the measured optical characteristics, the printer identifies and classifies the film frames into various types of scenes. The exposures used in printing each film frame depend upon the classification of that film frame. A user-selectable control permits the user to vary the sensitivity of the classification of one or more of the types of scenes in essentially a linear fashion.
