  • Publication number: 20240070844
    Abstract: Methods and system for identifying individual materials from waste streams are disclosed. A request can be received from a requester to assess waste within a waste container. Media in the form at least one of still images or video streams can be accessed from at least one camera located in association with a waste container. The media can be transmitted to an artificial intelligence (AI) platform for processing to determine the class of individual materials contained in the media and provide identification with a confidence level. A data file containing processing results can be created. A response can be generated and transmitted to the requester that initiated the request. The response can include data that further includes all materials found by the AI platform as contained in the media with a confidence level for each and at least one of an identification of the requester, container identification, and container location.

  • Patent number: 8264759
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method for fast all-optical switching is presented. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a first light transmitting medium. The apparatus may also include a second light transmitting medium coupled to the first light transmitting medium and disposed to form an interface region between the first light transmitting medium and the second light transmitting medium. Additionally, the apparatus may include a plurality of Lambda atoms disposed in the interface region, the Lambda atoms adapted to cause Electromagnetically-Induced Transparency (EIT) in the interface region in response to an incident photon.

  • Patent number: 8050410
    Abstract: A method and system for providing communication over arbitrary distances with a desired probability of security is disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention shares of a random key are encoded, the random key for effecting communication of a message through a network employing a cryptographically strong forward security system having a limited effective communications distance. A distributed re-randomization of the encoded shares is then effected at a plurality of intermediate network nodes.

  • Publication number: 20080144836
    Abstract: A method and system for providing authentication of mutual strangers is provided. For one embodiment, a plurality of routes from an origination node of a network to a recipient node of the network are determined, a portion of the routes is selected, and shares of a random secret key are generated with each share corresponding to one of the routes. Each share of the random secret key is transmitted via the corresponding route. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, shares of a random key are encoded and the random key is relayed via multiple routes through a network employing a cryptographically strong forward security system. At the destination, shares are recombined to reconstruct the key, and the recipient verifies the integrity of the key with the sender. If the key is intact it is used for authentication or encryption in future communication between the sender and recipient.
