  • Patent number: 10413808
    Abstract: An electronic word game uses a plurality of tiles and electronic rack to make one or more words. The tiles are received in a plurality of receivers in the rack enabling electronic communication between the tiles and rack. Each tile includes a display screen, a microprocessor, and communication means. The rack includes an on-off switch, microprocessor, speaker, power source, and a means of communicating with each tile. A capacitor in each tile provides power to keep the display screen on temporarily after the tile is removed from the rack. The microprocessor includes a means for selecting a word to be spelled based on the number of tiles selected to play the game (between 3 and 7 tiles), a means for determining whether a word has been formed, and a means to signal the player that a word has been formed.

  • Patent number: 10160276
    Abstract: A method and system for measuring rotor position or velocity in an electric motor disposed in hydraulic fluid. The system comprises a contactless position sensor that measures electric motor rotor via magnetic, optical, or other means through a diaphragm that is permeable to the sensing means but impervious to the hydraulic fluid. An electronic sensor is positioned outside the operating fluid, whereas the motor is located in the fluid volume.

  • Patent number: 9792426
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is performed on a shared-resources system. The method includes creating an anonymous target. The method further includes assigning shared resources to the anonymous target. In addition, the method includes receiving a request for anonymous access from an anonymous user of a client system. The method also includes, responsive to the request, performing the following: generating anonymous-user credentials for the anonymous user; determining the shared resources assigned to the anonymous target; based, at least in part, on the determining, communicating a list of authorized resources to the client system; receiving a request from the client system to access a target resource from the list of authorized resources; and causing an anonymous-user account to be created on the target resource using the anonymous-user credentials.
