Abstract: System and computer-implemented method of permitting or arbitrating encrypted electronic transactions to occur among an intermediary and an author in an electronic data system only when an interaction occurs between the author and a candidate who was exposed by the intermediary to data published by the author. The author publishes criteria about a candidate, and the candidate posts information about the candidate, which is ingested and married to personally identifiable information about the candidate. A score is calculated indicating a correlation between the candidate and the published criteria, and an intermediary exposes the candidate to the criteria, which is tracked. When the candidate completes an interaction with the author, an encrypted transaction is permitted to occur between the author and the candidate through a proxy, without the author knowing the identity of the intermediary who facilitated the introduction.

Abstract: A system and method for obtaining user approval for transactions. The system includes an authorization system that is communicably coupled to one or more transaction computer systems that execute at least some transactions that require user approval. When a transaction system is seeking to execute a transaction that requires user approval, the transaction system sends a user approval request to the authorization system. The authorization system then retrieves the user's communication preference from a database and transmits an affirmatively actionable message to the user according to the retrieved communication preference. The messages can include an email with an approval link to click or a text message that the can be replied to. When the authorization system receives confirmation from the user that the user approves the request, the authorization system then transmits approval for the transaction to the appropriate transaction system, which then proceeds to execute the transaction.

Abstract: Methods for making and operating physiological characteristic sensors are presented here. An exemplary method includes providing a quantified effect of an electrical performance parameter on a calculation of a concentration of an analyte in a fluid sample. The method includes providing a group of sensors and testing a test sensor from the group of sensors with a known concentration of the analyte in a test sample to determine the electrical performance parameter of the test sensor. Further, the method includes associating the electrical performance parameter of the test sensor with a selected sensor from the group of sensors. The method may associate the quantified effect with the selected sensor, measure an unknown concentration of the analyte with the selected sensor, and input the measured electrical performance parameter and the quantified effect into an algorithm to provide an estimated blood analyte level.

Abstract: A fender assembly having a non-metallic fender panel configured in a curved manner generally prevents material from accumulating on surfaces thereof, reduces weight of the vehicle, and provides a necessary level of protection from flying rocks and other debris that the wheels of a truck may generate. A non-metallic material is used to form the fender panel, which has a desired level of strength, durability, pliability and coefficient of friction. By carefully selecting this material, the fabrication and installation of the fender assembly is further simplified, thus providing additional efficiency. When applied to a cement mixer truck, the curved fender assembly is particularly beneficial as it provides the necessary level of protection, while also discouraging a build-up of concrete on any surface since the non-metallic material will not generally allow concrete to adhere to the surface.

Abstract: Multi-axis quick-release gimbal hinges that releasably attach a face protector to a helmet. The hinges allow the face protection to be easily and quickly released from the as-worn position to a position hanging from the other side of the helmet—even if the user has only a single hand free to release the face protector, and further to be fully detached from the helmet if desired. The present multi-axis quick-release gimbal comprise at least two degrees of freedom due to two gimbal hinges and also facilitate re-attachment compared to former systems, for example because the dual-gimbal hinge configuration holds the face protector in a particularly easy-access positions and/or by providing a rotational stop.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods, etc., that provide, in certain aspects, a two-point, adjustable, partially pliable, and releasable tensioning suspension that supports an anti-blunt-force frame connected to a protective helmet. The protective devices herein can be, for example, “sport-level” and “military/law enforcement-level.” The anti-blunt-force frame is positioned and balanced on the wearer's face by an impact absorbing face padding system, including a chin strap, cup or pad comprised of an impact protection material. Thus, in one aspect, the present devices, systems, methods, etc., include an adjustable facial protection system for a human comprising a crescent-shaped face protection element configured to withstand blunt force impact and a ballistic material element to prevent the penetration of ballistic and fragmentation projectiles at various force levels to meet different ballistic hazards. The systems can also include a protective helmet.
