Abstract: A system for generation and distribution of digital collectibles of a physical object over distributed computing network includes distributed ledgers and computing devices operably coupled to the distributed ledgers.

Abstract: Systems for providing decentralized product and rewards delivery platform are provided. The system includes an asset management unit issuing a number of fungible tokens according to a number of products related to the company in a predetermined period of time provided by the company, and a blockchain platform which, when in operation, performs distributing the fungible tokens into wallets of users who purchase one of the products of the company from a platform; issuing drawing tickets to the wallets of the users who redeem the fungible tokens, where the drawing tickets are automatically entered into a rewards pool for drawing; drawing rewards in the rewards pool to determine winners from the users who have the drawing tickets, according to reward rules; and issuing the rewards using smart contracts and depositing the rewards into wallets of the winners. The winners redeem the rewards by claiming the drawing tickets in their wallets.

Abstract: Methods for providing decentralized product and rewards delivery platform are provided. The method includes: issuing, by an asset management unit, a number of fungible tokens according to a number of products related to the company in a predetermined period of time provided by the company; distributing the fungible tokens into wallets of users who purchase one of the products of the company from a platform; issuing drawing tickets to the wallets of the users who redeem the fungible tokens, where the drawing tickets are automatically entered into a rewards pool for drawing; drawing rewards in the rewards pool to determine winners from the users who have the drawing tickets, according to reward rules; and issuing the rewards using smart contracts and depositing the rewards into wallets of the winners. The winners redeem the rewards by claiming the drawing tickets in their wallets.

Abstract: An electric vehicle includes an electric drive component; a lithium titanate oxide battery pack comprising LTO battery cells; and a range extender. The range extender has a first state to deliver power to the electric drive component, a second state to charge the LTO battery pack, a third state to deliver power to the electric drive component and charge the LTO battery pack, and a fourth state in which it does not deliver power outward. The electric drive component has a first state to receive power delivered from the LTO battery pack, a second state to receive power delivered from the range extender, a third state to receiver power delivered from the LTO battery pack and the range extender, a fourth state to recover braking energy to charge the LTO battery pack, and a fifth state in which it does not receive power and does not recover the braking energy.

Abstract: In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and a network based platform. A platform entity of the network based platform receives, from a first group entity managing a group of vehicles, data of projected payments that are to be generated based on transportation activities of the group of vehicles. The platform entity determines an amount of convertible preferred shares of a business entity to be issued to the group of vehicles based on the projected payments. Further, another platform entity of the network based platform receives, from a first group entity managing a group of housing units, data of projected payments that are to be generated based on household activities of the group of housing units. The platform entity determines an amount of convertible preferred shares of a business entity to be issued to the group of housing units based on the projected payments.

Abstract: Computer implemented methods, apparati, and computer-readable media for empirically adjusting access to a database (1). An apparatus embodiment comprises: coupled to the database (1), a database discovery module (11) for determining authorized accesses to the database (1); coupled to the database (1), a command monitoring module (12) for monitoring actual accesses to the database (1); and coupled to the database discovery module (11) and to the command monitoring module (12), an analysis module (13) for comparing actual accesses with authorized accesses.

Abstract: A cooling apparatus is provided for a linear motor that comprises a coil assembly and a magnet assembly, wherein the coil assembly generates heat during operation. The cooling apparatus comprises a compressed air inlet positioned to discharge compressed air in a direction directly towards a gap between the coil assembly and magnet assembly, and an inclined surface extending from the compressed air inlet and sloping at an obtuse angle away from the discharge direction of the compressed air. The compressed air inlet is configured to discharge the compressed air at a sufficient velocity so as to entrain atmospheric air along the inclined surface to amplify the compressed air that is discharged.

Abstract: A bonding apparatus for bonding materials onto a substrate supported on a substrate support is provided with an air generator that is arranged and configured to direct an air flow onto the substrate during bonding. The air generator is located on one side of the substrate support, whereas a suction device is located on an opposite side of the substrate support which is operative to draw the air flow away from the bonding apparatus. The air generator further comprises an air knife that is operative to generate a unidirectional air flow over an entire length of the substrate during bonding.
