Abstract: The present invention provides a scalable fast charging system for electric vehicles for large parking structures, curb-side charging, work-place charging, or MuD's charging. A centralized power processing unit processes power from AC to multiple HVDC outputs, with these multiple HVDC outputs available in small power increments that lend themselves to be easily paralleled and an optional energy storage system. A centralized switch matrix distributes and shares the power from the power processing outputs to any one, or any multiple, dispensers based on the power needs at the various dispenser. A centralized cooling system cools various cables and charging cables in the dispensers and is located away from the dispensers where more space is available. An array of small dispensers are installed at the point of use where the vehicles are to charge. Further, a switch matrix controller optimizes delivery of power to each of the dispensers to optimizer overall performance.

Abstract: A security system is provided that integrates physical and logical security controls for the protection of secured resources. The resources may include physical locations and/or computing resources such as databases containing personal information. In some embodiments, information is stored in separate, codependent databases such that by isolating the components of the databases from each other, a successful attack on one component is not sufficient to enable the access of content of the other components. In some embodiments, biometric information is automatically obtained as users approach an access location, and is ready for expedited verification of identity upon request by the user.

Abstract: The present invention provides manufacturing processes for biological replication of undifferentiated plant and animal cells and tissue in a weightless condition, including those systems used in current stem cell research and development and use of undifferentiated parenchyma in plants. The present invention further provides methods for adapting plants and animals to survive outside their native environments. In particular, undifferentiated cells from plants or animals are replicated under weightless conditions in which cell replication or proliferation is accelerated and sustained. Under such conditions, the undifferentiated cells can be “forced” to express sets of genes useful for survival in particular environmental conditions. In this manner, cells surviving prolonged exposure to specific environmental conditions can be selected for and cultivated to produce an organism adapted to that particular environment in an accelerated manner.

Abstract: The present invention is a system for recreational purposes. The system includes a vessel rotatably mounted, a support stand, and a drive system. The vessel has a wall that defines an internal cavity, sufficient for at least one occupant to be received wherein the occupant is in contact with the wall, and a tunnel for accessing the internal cavity. The wall has dampens the contact between the occupant and the vessel. The support stand has two connectors carried by elevated members on opposing sides of the vessel for supporting the vessel. A drive system that includes a motor mechanically connected to at least one of the connectors for rotating the vessel and the occupant within the internal cavity.
