  • Patent number: 11032074
    Abstract: A computer processing system and method for reducing memory footprint that includes initiating, through at least one computer processor, a cryptography session utilizing an i-degree isogeny arithmetic computation having chained computations therein. The cryptography session includes implementing a first iteration cycle, of a plurality of iteration cycles, and a implementing a remaining amount of the plurality of iteration cycles, each of the plurality iteration cycles computing isogenies using a compressed Z value to complete the -degree isogeny arithmetic computation. The first iteration cycle includes individually computing a plurality of sequentially occurring pivot points within the chained computations, implementing a Co—Z algorithm within the plurality of sequentially occurring pivot points to compute and store the compressed Z value on one of the plurality of temporary registers and computing a first isogeny of the -degree isogeny arithmetic computations using the compressed Z value.

  • Patent number: 10328354
    Abstract: A gift box with a self-inflating balloon is designed to be shipped to a recipient through the mail. A lid of the box is configured to be opened and may display a personalized message relating to a special occasion of the recipient. The box includes the balloon, which may be hidden from view in a compartment of the box. The box includes a switch that is configured to be actuated by the recipient. Upon actuating the switch, an inflation device is activated and begins to inflate the balloon, which emerges from the compartment of the box. A vibrating motor inside the box may synchronously cause the box to vibrate. After a pre-determined amount of time, the inflation device and motor deactivate, and a valve seals the air inside the balloon. Once the balloon is inflated, the gift box and balloon may be displayed for the recipient.

  • Publication number: 20180315295
    Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing the decibel or volume level of an alarm sound emitted by an alarm system or a security system from a first volume level to a second volume level are provided. Some methods can include detecting a user at a control panel of the security system when an audio alarm is broadcasting the audio sound at the first volume level, the control panel determining whether the user is attempting to use the control panel to disarm the security system, and when the control panel determines that the user is attempting use the control panel to disarm the security system, lowering the first volume level to the second volume level.

  • Publication number: 20180272598
    Abstract: A continuous additive fabrication system comprises a bath of photopolymer resin and a light source assembly having a light source and a motorized variable aperture. The light source assembly is operable to generate a focus point in the bath of photopolymer resin, the shape of the focus point at a curing plane within the bath of photopolymer resin corresponding to the shape of the motorized variable aperture. The continuous additive fabrication system further comprises a platform configured to support a build object and a drive mechanism (coupled to at least one of the platform and the light source assembly) configured to continuously move the curing plane through the bath of photopolymer resin. A size and/or shape of the motorized variable aperture is changed while the curing plane in continuously moved through the bath of photopolymer resin.

  • Patent number: 10063899
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically obtaining cost-efficient access to a media content collection are provided. A user selection of a media content collection, which consists of a number of media assets, is received. A first price is determined for receiving access to the entire media content collection using a single transaction. For each media asset of the media content collection a set of providers of the media asset are identified, and the lowest price for receiving access to each media asset is determined. The lowest price for receiving access to each media asset of the media content collection is accumulated to determine a second price for receiving access to the media content collection using multiple transactions. The first and the second price are compared, and access to the media content collection is received based on this comparison.
