  • Patent number: 12244733
    Abstract: A process includes communicating by a first device, with a second device. The communicating includes the first device receiving data from the second device that represents a certificate. The certificate binds a hierarchy of logical identifiers to a cryptographic key. The hierarchy of identifiers includes a first logical identifier that corresponds to a group membership. The process includes authenticating, by the first device, the second device based on the certificate. The process includes allowing, by the first device, a secure connection to be set up between the first device and the second device based on whether the first logical identifier represents that the second device is a member of a first group of devices of which the first device is a member.

  • Patent number: 12241426
    Abstract: Provided are systems and methods of controlling load share in a multi-engine propulsion system. A load share participation value indicative of a load share participation regime for a first engine may be received and a load sharing requirement control command for the first engine may be output. The load share participation value may depend or be based at least in part on one or more operating conditions of a second engine. The load sharing requirement control command for the first engine may depend on whether the load share participation value indicates a full-participation load share regime for the first engine, a partial-participation load share regime for the first engine, or a non-participation load share regime for the first engine.

  • Publication number: 20250071510
    Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of establishing global positioning system (GPS) coordinates of a virtual geographic boundary around a charging station through a software application, receiving a message from a vehicle which comprises a state of charge (SOC) of the vehicle and an identifier of the vehicle, verifying the vehicle based on the message, detecting that the vehicle has entered the virtual geographic boundary around the charging station based on GPS coordinates of the vehicle, and delivering content to a graphical user interface (GUI) of the software application in response to detection that the vehicle has entered the virtual geographic boundary.

  • Patent number: 12233321
    Abstract: A portable net system for net games is disclosed which provides for rapid assembly, lightweight construction, durability against damage while assembling and playing, and also provides enhancements inherent in the design which allow for improved marketing and advertising during tournaments. The net functions through having a bow-shaped tensioning rod reacting against the net top-tape to provide primary shape, net tension and height control. A vertical post at each distal end is attached to the foldable feet to provide lateral stability, and these are attached to the net via insertion into the net end-band and durably connected via the rigid bow end-connectors. Removable end-panels at each end net termination provides for a self-tensioned surface where advertising and sponsor labels may be attached.

  • Patent number: 12233318
    Abstract: Golf club heads are provided for selectively increasing or optimizing the coefficient of restitution (COR) at likely impact locations on the striking face of the golf club heads, while simultaneously maintaining characteristic time (CT) below a threshold value in those likely impact locations. By analyzing historical impact locations of a large cross-section of golfers, golf club head COR values can be increased or optimized in preferential locations on the striking face, such as using weighting factors for a predefined set of locations on the striking face. Therefore, instead of increasing COR uniformly across the face and/or increasing COR at impact locations on the face where golfers are unlikely to strike the golf ball, the sweet spot of the golf club head can be increased at the impact locations where golfers typically strike the golf ball.

  • Patent number: 12232902
    Abstract: A system is described for generating a revascularization score for a blockage of a coronary artery in a heart. The system accesses indications of viability of myocardial tissue in the heart, a blockage state of the blockage that includes a blockage location and a blockage amount, and the perfusion territory of the myocardial tissue. Based on the myocardial tissue state, blockage state, and perfusion territory, the system generates a revascularization score for the blockage. The system generates a graphic of the heart that illustrates coronary arteries, myocardial tissue state, blockage state, and the revascularization score. The system displays the graphic to provide a visual representation of the revascularization score for the blockage of the coronary artery.
