  • Patent number: 7259357
    Abstract: The invention seals, unseals and/or bonds plastics, waxes and resins via a thermal metal strip or wire coated with liquefiable substances that melt to open or separate and cool to congeal, seal, vulcanize or bond together when the wire or strip is energized in a shorted state (to heat) or not energized (to cool). Electronic switch modalities and sealing applications are optionally taught for security and tamper detection. In one modality, a unique signal is sent to the gate leg of a micro-processing chip (e.g. an SCR switch) where firmware recognizes the signal and permits current through a thermal wire. This innovation is optionally employed for Homeland Security.

  • Publication number: 20060287783
    Abstract: This invention addresses environmental social and commercial uses and includes a monitoring system which is a network of on, in, out and off-board devices working together with people through software and interfaces to provide services and make accountable humanity's machines and their actions through safe secure communication. Control devices are used to provide accountability for their socio-economic and environmental impact. Along with these systems networked together, additional devices and variations needed to complete these operations nationally and world wide are also provided. Unique ways interface a network of separate devices or IC circuits to create an interactive secure control system or center that can be remotely controlled.

  • Patent number: 6965816
    Abstract: This invention, a Protected Primary Focal Node PFN is a Trusted Remote Activity Controller TRAC and mobile communication router platform that provides accountable remote and robotics control to transportation vehicles by interfacing with the vehicles E/E systems. It connects each vehicle either on the earth's surface or near the earth's surface with application specific intranets for air, sea and land travel, via either host commercial servers or agency providers through wireless communication gateways and then further interfaces these vehicles in a larger machine messaging matrix via wireless and IP protocols to further coordinate movement assess and manage equipment use and impact on the world resources, societies infrastructure and the environment. This filing focuses directly on PFN/TRAC System use to augment and upgrade public safety and security in the Airline Industry and restrict any unauthorized use of an aircraft.

  • Publication number: 20040049324
    Abstract: This application describes completely in many unique ways and detail all the devices to reduce a vehicle's speed and/or reduce a machines RPMs and/or stop any piece of equipment's as well as guide it if mobile through automated controls. First to slow it down, and guide it and/or control it if necessary (i.e., other pieces of equipment). Secondly it discusses how to stop any piece of equipment completely. And thirdly, the invention secures it in a safe stationary position either entirely or any number of specific moving parts. Many of these systems are initially here described to slow, reduce speed, steer, stop and/or secure equipment functions. However, they also can be used to increase a piece of equipment's functions. In other words their variations are completely capable to serve any remote or automated controls on a vehicle in the future to provide full robotics systems, e.g., for automated transportation systems, automated manufacturing, etc.

  • Patent number: 6157317
    Abstract: A stop and control box houses the standard phone pager (a COTS APPLICATION--meaning commercial off the shelf) as a stimulating and communication device in either a secured and/or concealed mechanical lockup or in any protected area that employs any means to limit access. This protected area would also house control circuitry and could house monitoring circuitry to interface with and record the host machine's functions and finally record the operator and occupant's activities. The stop and control box accomplishes its remote capabilities in a number of ways from actually being wired directly to the pagers circuitry to merely sensing or reading the pager functions and numerical messages.
