Abstract: A power control system for managing energy transfer includes a shared electrical bus including an electrical energy generating source, an electrical energy storage device, and an electrical load, each connected to the shared electrical bus; and a controller operable to execute a plurality of instructions stored in a non-transitory memory on the controller to: receive a command corresponding to a desired operation of the power control system, generate a plurality of control commands as a function of a signal received from at least one sensor, and generate a log storing the present operating state for each of the electrical energy generating source, the electrical energy storage device, and the electrical load over a predefined duration, and wherein the at least one input corresponding to the past operating state of the power control system is the log.

Abstract: Systems and methods permit a wireless audio output device to receive a content streaming preference that identifies a remote digital media content source. A mobile computing device transmits, wireless via an ad hoc wireless communication link, credential data for an infrastructure wireless network to the wireless audio output device. The wireless audio output device may then connect to a wireless access point via the infrastructure wireless network and receive the content streaming preference from a host server via the infrastructure network. Digital media content may then be streamed from the remote digital media content source according to the content streaming preference.

Abstract: Systems and methods permit a wireless device to receive data wirelessly via an infrastructure wireless network, without physically connecting the wireless device to a computer in order to configure it, and without having an existing infrastructure wireless network for the wireless device to connect to. A remote server hosts a website that permits a user of the wireless device to input via a computer credential data for at least one infrastructure wireless network. The content access point transmits the credential data for the at least one infrastructure wireless network to the wireless device via the ad hoc wireless network, such that, upon receipt of the credential data for the at least one infrastructure wireless network, the wireless device is configured to connect to the at least one infrastructure wireless network.

Abstract: Systems and method enable a wireless media player to receive data wireless via an infrastructure wireless network. In a first operational mode, the wireless media player may play digital media content stored on a digital media device via an ad hoc wireless connection with a remote wireless communication device. The remote wireless communication device may also transmit credential data for the infrastructure wireless network to the wireless media player via the ad hoc wireless network. In a second operational mode, the wireless media player plays digital media content from a remote digital media content source via the infrastructure wireless network.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling power flow in a hybrid power system includes a controller in communication with the hybrid power system. The controller is also in communication with at least one knowledge system to receive information related to power generation or power consumption within the hybrid power system. The controller generates a control command for each of the power converters in the hybrid power system and maintains a log of power flow to and from each device in the hybrid power system. The controller is also in communication with a provider of the utility grid and may generate the control commands for each of the power converters in response to commands provided from the provider of the utility grid.

Abstract: Systems and methods permit a wireless device to receive data wirelessly via an infrastructure wireless network, without physically connecting the wireless device to a computer in order to configure it, and without having an existing infrastructure wireless network for the wireless device to connect to. A remote server hosts a website that permits a user of the wireless device to input via a computer credential data for at least one infrastructure wireless network. The content access point transmits the credential data for the at least one infrastructure wireless network to the wireless device via the ad hoc wireless network, such that, upon receipt of the credential data for the at least one infrastructure wireless network, the wireless device is configured to connect to the at least one infrastructure wireless network.
