  • Patent number: 12093412
    Abstract: A secure data parser is provided that may be integrated into any suitable system for securely storing and communicating data. The secure data parser parses data and then splits the data into multiple portions that are stored or communicated distinctly. Encryption of the original data, the portions of data, or both may be employed for additional security. The secure data parser may be used to protect data in motion by splitting original data into portions of data, that may be communicated using multiple communications paths.

  • Patent number: 12096072
    Abstract: Systems and methods for off-road connectivity and sharing of time-sensitive information. Techniques described herein may be utilized to allow for off-road vehicles to share their animal watching information quickly with other off-road vehicles via vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and/or vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications in real-time. Real-time watching information may be shared from off-road vehicles to one another, thereby enabling a more pleasant watching experience, as individuals are able to spend less time exploring and searching for wild animals and more time at points of interests where wild animals are expected to be seen based on information provided by other watchers.
