Abstract: A cyber-physical device management system may allow for highly reliable and authentic identity management of cyber-physical systems, unforgeable legal interception devices, and robust relay nodes. A cyber-physical device management system may also provide for human and object bi-directional authenticity verification. In some cases, a cyber physical management system may enable a cyber physical vehicle (CPV) detection and intervention system which may be capable or detection, identification, capture, seizure, and immobilization of CPVs. In some embodiments the CPV detection and intervention system includes a geocoding laser subsystem for determining a location of a CPV.

Abstract: Methods and control apparatus are presented for controlling supply of electrical power to a micro-grid power system, in which a master controller automatically rebalances the micro-grid by changing an activation state of one or more loads and/or activating and deactivating individual power supplies to preferentially activate non-fuel consuming power supplies and deactivate fuel consuming power supplies so as to minimize fuel consumption for the micro-grid power system.

Abstract: A device for increased ultraviolet exposure of fluids. The device includes at least one photonic source for generating and emitting photonic energy in a wavelength or in a range of wavelengths of visible light. The device also includes a lens formed of a fluoropolymer material wherein the at least one photonic source is sealed within an interior and underneath an outer surface of the fluoropolymer material so as to be surrounded by the fluoropolymer material. The at least one photonic source is coupled with the lens such that the photonic energy emitting from the at least one photonic source transmits through and projects beyond the fluoropolymer material. The lens propagates photons in an omnidirectional pattern simultaneously throughout the entirety of the lens. The joining of the at least one photonic source and the fluoropolymer material comprises all components for generating and emitting photonic energy when the photonic source is activated, such that it is an operable source.

Abstract: Devices and uses of said devices for transmitting UV light over a broad area and for a long distance to inactivate microbes and non-microbial sources. The device is activated by a variable or dynamic logic process that controls activation of the device, such that activation is automatic and only when there is either a predetermined target or an absence of an action or activity within an effective range of the device. The device comprises at least one ultraviolet light emitting source emitting ultraviolet light in a range from about 10 to 400 nanometers and a lens formed of an ultraviolet light transmissive material. The at least one ultraviolet light emitting source is embedded within the lens. The lens may be formed into a functional or ornamental shape and does not filter or refract significantly the ultraviolet light emitted from the at least one ultraviolet light emitting source.

Abstract: A grapple assembly suspended as an external load from an associated flying vehicle includes a frame member secured to an associated load line suspended from the associated vehicle. The frame member includes a first section, a second section, and a hinge joint connecting the first section to the second section. A grapple mechanism is mounted to the frame member second section. If desired, an aerodynamic body can be mounted to the frame member so as to encase at least a portion of the frame member. A release mechanism can be provided for jettisoning at least a portion of the aerodynamic body. The release mechanism can be triggered by an operator who can be stationed in the flying vehicle.
