Publication number: 20240126845Abstract: Systems, devices, and method for managing data processing systems are disclosed. The data processing systems may be capable of operating in various manners. To manage the data processing systems, onboarding processes may be performed to conform the operation of the data processing systems to meet the expectations of owners of the data processing systems. To facilitate onboarding, onboarding payloads may be generated in a domain in which data necessary for onboarding is available. The onboarding payloads may be transferred to data processing systems in domains in which the necessary data is not available to onboard the data processing systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: BRADLEY K. GOODMAN, KIRK ALAN HUTCHINSON, JOSEPH CAISSE

Publication number: 20240129134Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for managing operation of data processing systems are disclosed. To manage operation of the data processing systems, onboarding processes may be performed to conform the operation of the data processing systems to meet the expectations of owners of the data processing systems. During onboarding, keys usable to verify subsequently issued commands may be obtained by the data processing systems. The data processing systems may perform verifications processes for issued commands that rely on a root of trust established with the keys rather than identifies of entities that may issue the commands for command verification.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: BRADLEY K. GOODMAN, KIRK ALAN HUTCHINSON, JOSEPH CAISSE

Publication number: 20240126905Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for managing data processing systems are disclosed. The data processing systems may be capable of operating in various manners. To manage the data processing systems, onboarding processes may be performed to conform the operation of the data processing systems to meet the expectations of owners of the data processing systems. To manage security policies of the data processing systems during onboarding, ownership vouchers may be generated to provide data necessary for onboarding that defines security policies, hardware policies, and ownership of the data processing systems. The ownership voucher may be deployed to data processing systems during onboarding to reduce the likelihood of undesired use and/or interactions with the data processing systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 14, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: BRADLEY K.

Patent number: 10141179Abstract: An induction RF fluorescent lamp having a bulbous vitreous portion of the induction RF fluorescent light bulb including a lamp envelope filled with a working gas mixture. The lamp includes a power coupler and an electronic ballast. A first metallic structure is attached to a cavity wall and extends outwardly radially therefrom and within the lamp envelope outside a re-entrant cavity including mercury. The first metallic structure is mounted within the lamp envelope and adapted to absorb power from the electric field and induce discharge during a turn-on phase of the induction RF fluorescent lamp in a manner sufficient to rapidly heat and vaporize the mercury and promote rapid luminous development during the turn-on phase of the induction RF fluorescent lamp.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2013Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: Lucidity Lights, Inc.Inventors: John R.

Patent number: 9414583Abstract: A waterfowl decoy continuous motion system is provided. A self-propelled floating decoy is tethered to a submerged line supported below the surface of a body of water by stakes driven into the water bottom. The decoy has a skeg attached to the bottom of the decoy. The skeg is positioned at an angle offset from a longitudinal axis extending along the length of the body of the decoy. The tether is slidably attached to the submerged line, and a swivel located on the tether allows the decoy to rotate freely. The decoy is guided by the line as it moves across the surface of the water. When the tether reaches a stopper near each end of the line, the decoy makes a 180-degree turn in an arcing path and then travels in the opposite direction. The decoy repeats this process in a continuous loop.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2016Date of Patent: August 16, 2016Inventors: Kyle Allen Burton, Wesley Alan Goodman

Patent number: 9402387Abstract: A waterfowl decoy motion system comprises a self-propelled floating decoy tethered to a submerged line supported below the surface of a body of water by stakes driven into the water bottom. A thruster is attached to the bottom of the decoy such that the direction of propulsion is offset from a longitudinal axis extending along the length of the decoy by an angle of at least one degree. The tether is slidably attached to the submerged line, and a swivel located on the tether allows the decoy to rotate freely. The decoy is guided by the line as it moves across the surface of the water. When the tether reaches a stopper near each end of the line, the offset propulsion angle causes the decoy to turn in an arcing path, turn around, and travel in the opposite direction. The decoy repeats this process in a continuous loop.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2014Date of Patent: August 2, 2016Inventors: Wesley Alan Goodman, Kyle Allen Burton
