  • Patent number: 11397802
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for authenticating a user to reset account login credentials associated with a non-network-connected generator computing device. The generator computing device is programmed to receive a first user input requesting to initiate a reset of account login credentials, generate a challenge code, set a timer, display the generated challenge code, and receive a second user input. The second user input is a response code generated at a services computing device associated with a services provider. The generator computing device is also programmed to verify that an amount of time elapsed between generation of the challenge code and receipt of the second user input is within a predefined time limit. The generator computing device is programmed to generate an expected response code, authenticate the user by comparing the received response code to the expected response code, and reset the account login credentials.

  • Patent number: 9421926
    Abstract: A vehicle bumper protection device reduces the force of impact in the event of collision. The device includes a chamber having a top wall, a bottom wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, a front wall and a rear wall. The first and second side walls are coupled to and extend between the top and bottom walls and the front and rear walls. The chamber is configured for attaching to a vehicle bumper. An inflatable bladder is positioned in the chamber. A compression assembly is positioned within the bladder and is configured to absorb shock upon impact of the chamber.

  • Patent number: 6905833
    Abstract: Methods and kits for detecting breast cancer or a high risk of breast cancer by measuring bFGF in nipple fluid from subjects compare the levels of bFGF in samples from test subjects with the levels of bFGF in subjects not having breast cancer, where increased levels of bFGF in test subjects indicate the presence of breast cancer, or a high risk of breast cancer, in the test subjects.

  • Publication number: 20030129597
    Abstract: This invention provides a novel gene whose expression is upregulated during angiogenesis and/or tumorigenesis. Designated herein as EG-1, the gene provides a good target for modulators of angiogenesis and/or tumorigenesis. In addition, methods of inhibiting EG-1 and thereby inhibiting angiogenesis and metastasis are provided.

  • Patent number: 6128555
    Abstract: A fault identification, isolation and fault recovery system autonomously controls spacecraft operational systems. A fault detection and isolation module monitors the operational systems, identifies faults via such monitoring and attempts to isolate component causing the fault. Isolation may constitute a plurality of hierarchically arranged techniques that enhance speed and maximize the likelihood of identifying a correct hypothesis regarding the actual failure. The fault isolation and fault recovery modules are bounded by a severe fault override module which places the spacecraft operational systems in a safe mode or state. Thus, the override module ensures rapid entry into the safe mode while preventing an erroneous hypothesis serviced by the fault recovery module from driving the system beyond acceptable limits. A high level command processor receives command sequences from remote ground support stations and from the on-board fault recovery module.
