  • Publication number: 20220345475
    Abstract: A method for providing cybersecurity to an industrial system having multiple components includes monitoring communications across the components of the system and detecting a deviation in an expected communication state in a first component. Upon detection of a deviation, communication states of at least one other component in the system is observed. If a deviation is also detected in the other component, then the deviation is deemed to be unauthorized. If no other deviations are detected in other components, the original deviation is deemed to be benign. Detecting a deviation includes comparing an expected communication state based on a baseline to the current communication state, the communication state may be based on a communication's content or a pattern of communication actions.

  • Patent number: 10374214
    Abstract: A method for the manufacturing of electrodes with at least one porous surfacial layer comprising anisotropic electrochemically active particles. It also relates to electrodes made using such a method. The method comprises the following steps: (a) coupling of paramagnetic nanoparticles to said active particles for the generation of composites; (b) preparation of a slurry of said composites, including a solvent mixed with a binder able to release a volatile component; (c) application of said slurry to a substrate to form a film; (d) application of a magnetic field to the film and orienting said active particles leading to a substrate in which said active particles are arranged with their shortest axes aligned along a preferred axis parallel to said substrate; (e) during or after application of said magnetic field evaporation of said solvent with solidification of the binder and release of said volatile component under formation of said surfacial layer.

  • Patent number: 9241124
    Abstract: Various embodiments herein include systems, methods, and software for interactive video projection system content generation. Such content is content consumed by a system that projects a scene view on a surface, such as a wall, screen, or floor, and is interactive with user motion. User motion is captured as input via a camera or other imaging device and processed on a computing device to determine where in a projected scene a user is moving. The scene is then modified based on the detected motion. A user generates content for consumption in such embodiments by providing image and variable input to populate a graphical rendering template when rendered for presentation to a user.
