Patent number: 12073176Abstract: A system and method for performing a desired verb action involves administering units of memory having a set of non-mutable components in a knowledge base. The components are organized as a graph with nodes and edges extending between the nodes. The nodes correspond to the components and are representative of definitional knowledge and procedural knowledge of a model. The model has a component representative of a vocabulary of components including components representative of performable actions and components a performable action can act upon. A verb is located in the vocabulary satisfying a criteria of the desired verb action. The verb action is performed in a context of a domain of discourse. The domain of discourse includes a set of components the performable action can act upon. The domain of discourse includes the vocabulary.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2023Date of Patent: August 27, 2024Assignee: Neursciences LLCInventors: Charles Northrup, John King Burns

Publication number: 20240119964Abstract: A system includes a multiplexed optical identifier and a reader for the optical identifier. The multiplexed optical identifier includes an optical substrate, and a plurality of volume holograms in the optical substrate. The reader includes an illumination source and a camera. The illumination source is configured to direct light into the optical identifier to produce an image of a corresponding one of the volume holograms at the camera, and the camera is configured to capture the image, which is stored in a digital format by the system. The multiplexed optical identifier contains more than one code page, wherein each of the code pages is used for a different purpose.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Charles Northrup, Jefferson Odhner, Richard Rarey

Patent number: 11887639Abstract: A system includes a plurality of optical identifiers and a reader for the optical identifiers. Each optical identifier has an optical substrate and a volume hologram (e.g., with unique data, such as a code page) in the optical substrate. The reader for the optical identifiers includes an illumination source (e.g., a laser), and a camera. The illumination source is configured to direct light into a selected one of the optical identifiers that has been placed into the reader to produce an image of the associated volume holograms at the camera. The camera is configured to capture the image. The captured image may be stored in a digital format by the system.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Neursciences LLCInventors: Charles Northrup, Jefferson Odhner, Richard Rarey

Patent number: 11770259Abstract: A system and method for securing a resource includes a combination code generator configured to receive a first input sequence and a first panel context and generate a first computed combination code. A second computed combination code is generated from a received second input sequence and a second panel context. A set panels module receives the first computed combination code and the first panel context and re-orders the panels of the first panel context to set the second panel context. a hash key generator converts the received second panel context and the second combination code into a first hash key.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2022Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: NB Research LLCInventors: Johnathan W.
