摘要:
A data storage area of a data storage device is partitioned logically between a user storage area and a device storage area. Source data stored securely in the device storage area is copied as derivative data to the user storage area, or is used as a basis for creating derivative data stored in the user storage area, whenever the data storage device is initialized. In one embodiment, the data storage area is read-write and the device storage area has embodied thereon device system code, executed by a controller of the data storage device, for writing source data to the device storage area only if the source data satisfies a predetermined condition. Examples of derivative data include an autorun file, a volume label and user identification. Data from a host may be stored reversibly in the user storage area but must be stored securely in the device storage area.

A method executed by a circuit for counting electrons in storage cells in an array of at least two storage cells is provided. The method includes providing a storage array of at least two storage cells, and each of said at least two storage cells containing an unknown amount of electrons. A receiving array of at least two receiving cells is provided, where said at least two receiving cells initially contain no electrons. Then, extracting a layer of said electrons from said storage array of cells and inserting said layer into corresponding locations in said receiving array. The method then repeats said steps of extracting and inserting while at least one of said at least two storage cells is not empty. The method counts, for each said storage cell in said storage array, a productive-extraction amount.

A method for operating a camera includes connecting the camera to a computer; the camera is programmed by storing operative steps in memory within the camera. The programming is performed using an application running on the computer. On completing the programming, the camera is disconnected from the computer and further programming is disabled and the program is executed. Preferably, the program includes correlating a photographic image with a previously stored photographic image and overwriting in memory a photographic image substantially identical to the previously stored photographic image. Preferably, the camera further includes manual controls functional solely during manual photography and disabled during surveillance photography.

A portable non-volatile memory device including a user interface for selectively assigning one of a plurality of security statuses to a user file stored therein is provided. In some embodiments, the memory device includes a power source so that the user interface is operative even when the memory device is in an uncoupled state. Optionally, the device provides a mechanism for authenticating users. In exemplary embodiments, the assigned security status of a user file is selected from the group consisting of non-secure, encrypted, visible while protected against copying and hidden.

摘要:
A device, a method and a system for portable data storage and transfer through a simplified device interface. The operations of the device are restricted, in order to increase the ease of use of the device, and in order to provide certain core functions. These core functions include reading data, writing data and exchanging data with a similar device and/or with an external computer. The device features a minimal set of hardware components for accomplishing these functions, such as a data processor of some type, a memory storage medium or media, and a data exchange mechanism, which may optionally be an infrared port for example.
