Publication number: 20200090543Abstract: A process that translates scores, from real-life activities, achieved exogenously from games and simulations the scores enhance. Game and simulation objects can be developed without the burden of including real-life activities, such as academics, sports, recreation, and performance, inside of the games and simulations themselves. The process harnesses behaviors to compel humans to participate in real-life activities by making game and simulation objects reliant upon the scores which the humans achieve. The process allows the humans to stage, display, and use the scores in the form of game and simulation objects for self and others to see. Activity score translation is achieved by manual. and or automated processes, exemplified in embodiments herein, at a translation intersection point where the scores of real-life activities are introduced into games and simulations and are spent on game and simulation objects, and object attributes and enhancements.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2018Publication date: March 19, 2020Inventor: Peter Jeffery McDaniels

Patent number: 9634315Abstract: An anode or negative electrode having a material matrix of carbon, graphene and an active element such as silicon or tin is described. The electrode is fabricated from an electrode slurry that does not utilize an organic binder. The electrode slurry comprises a combination of silicon and graphene oxide suspensions that is applied to a surface of a substrate such as a current collector. The layer of electrode slurry is heat treated to ensure adhesion of the layer of active electrode material to the surface of the current collector. The electrode may be incorporated within a lithium ion electrochemical cell.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2015Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: SINODE SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Cary Michael Hayner, Saad Hasan, Joshua Jonathan Lau, Christine A. Frysz, Peter Jefferies Santos

Patent number: 8083301Abstract: A rack system for electronic and/or electrical equipment including a frame, a front door mounted to the front of the frame, a back door or panel, two side panels mounted to the back and two sides of the frame, and a top panel mounted to the top of the frame. The doors can be single doors or dual doors. The frame includes a rectangular base frame constructed by four horizontal edge members, and a top frame having the same structure as the base frame, and four vertical members each extending between two associate corners of the base frame and the top frame, and joining the base frame and top frame together. The horizontal members and vertical members are contoured with step-like structures, so that the rack has a high stiffness and strength. The door includes a hinge and a latch attached to two vertical members. The panels are provided with tabs and latches for securing the panels to the frame.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2009Date of Patent: December 27, 2011Assignee: Sanmina-Sci CorporationInventors: Andrew Hudz, Peter Jeffery, Zia Shariff, Eino A.
