  • Publication number: 20240048534
    Abstract: A communication system including a first and second module. A first network member is coupled to the first module, and a second network member is coupled to the second module. The modules being in communication with each other thereby allowing communication between the first network member and the second network member. The modules being configured to: encrypt a message, beginning with the encrypting of the message using a key and a salt, the salt being an entropy sourced random number produced using a one-way hash function producing hashes of an arbitrary length; stop the encrypting when the message is encrypted resulting in an encrypted message; encrypt the salt with the key resulting in an encrypted salt; assemble the encrypted salt, a demark character, the encrypted message and padding to form a data set; and securely communicate the data set from one of the modules to another of the modules.

  • Patent number: 11784985
    Abstract: An encryption/decryption method including the steps of encrypting a message, beginning with the encrypting of the message using a key and a salt, the salt being a random number; stopping the encrypting step when the message is encrypted resulting in an encrypted message; encrypting the salt with the key resulting in an encrypted salt; and assembling the encrypted salt, a demark character, the encrypted message and padding to form a data set.

  • Patent number: 11218810
    Abstract: An electric motor including a driven element, a magnet assembly and a driving element. The driven element being driven in a direction of movement. The magnet assembly is includes first and second magnets each having first and second magnetic poles. The first magnetic pole of the first magnet and the first magnetic pole of the second magnet being proximate to each other and facing each other thereby defining a first magnetic zone therebetween. The first magnetic poles all being similar, and the second magnetic poles all being similar. The driving element is proximate to the magnet assembly, producing a magnetic field within the driving element that is primarily orthogonal to the direction of movement.

  • Patent number: 11172308
    Abstract: An electric motor including two magnetic assemblies each having an even number of magnets in a circular arrangement, the magnets arranged in a bucking configuration with like poles directed at each other. There are a plurality of ferrous members for each of the magnetic assemblies arranged between each of the magnets. The ferrous members having a face that is directed radially toward a face of another ferrous member of the corresponding magnetic assembly. An electromagnetic assembly has a plurality of electromagnetic members arranged in a generally circular arrangement and is located radially between the two magnetic assemblies. Each electromagnetic member has a ferrous element with an electrical conductor wound around the ferrous element, each ferrous element having an inward and outward face respectively being directed to the ferrous members of the two magnetic assemblies as they pass each other as the magnet assemblies rotate relative to the electromagnetic assembly.

  • Patent number: 11153283
    Abstract: A data communication encrypted system including a first module coupled to a first network member and a second module coupled to a second network member. The first module and the second module are in communication with each other thereby allowing communication between the first network member and the second network member. The first module and the second module each operating with a key hopping encryption/decryption method that changes key sets at irregular intervals of time as determined by the modules.

  • Patent number: 10405087
    Abstract: A radial acoustic speaker assembly including a transducer and a plurality of segmented spiral horns acoustically coupled to the transducer. Each of the segmented spiral horns have an acoustical path. The plurality of segmented spiral horns include a first segmented spiral horn and a second segmented spiral horn. The first segmented spiral horn being adjacent to the second segmented spiral horn, and the first segmented spiral horn and the second segmented spiral horn have substantially identical shapes.
