Abstract: This application describes creating, modifying, and bending electromagnetic solitons at large scales for the various applications. An electromagnetic soliton generator system controls the magnetic soliton such that the orientation, rotation rate, pitch angle, and magnetic field strength of the solitons are modified to provide the described standing waves and generate a magnetic flux differential.

Abstract: A pedal cycle drivetrain (1) comprising: an epicyclic gear train (3) comprising: a sun gear (11) rotatable around a main axis; a planet carrier (13) rotatable around the main axis and carrying one or more planet gears (15) meshed with the sun gear (11); and an annulus (17) rotatable around the main axis and meshed with the one or more planet gears (15). The sun gear (11), the planet carrier (13), and the annulus (17) are each exclusively in direct drive with one of: an input (5) including one or more pedals; an output (7) including a wheel hub (8) rotatable around the main axis; and a first electric motor (19). Varying angular velocity of the first electric motor (19) corresponds to a varying effective transmission ratio between the input (5) and the output (7). An example application for the pedal cycle drivetrain (1) is use as a transmission in a human powered vehicle (100, 200, 400) such as a unicycle, a recumbent bicycle, or a tricycle.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for configuring and operating hardware to sustain real-time hashing throughput. In an embodiment, during a first set of clock cycles, a particular amount of data items of a first data column are transferred into multiple hash lanes. During a second set of clock cycles, the same particular amount of data items of a second data column are transferred into the hash lanes. The transferred data items of the first and second data columns are then processed to calculate a set of hash values. When combined with techniques such as pipelining and horizontal scaling, the loading, hashing, and other processing occur in real time at the full speed of the underlying data path. For example, hashing throughput may sustainably equal or exceed the throughput of main memory.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatus, systems, digital logic circuitry and techniques relating to data encoding. A method performed by a system on a chip (SOC) includes receiving data to be output to a memory unit external to the SOC. Also a key for scrambling the received data is received. A proper subset of the key is identified and used to scramble the received data. The scrambled data is output to the memory unit external to the SOC.

Abstract: An apparatus such as a television signal receiver controls a digital recording device via a digital data bus to enable sub-channel recording and playback. According to an exemplary embodiment, the apparatus includes a processor that is operative to process signals representing a plurality of sub-channels to generate digital data for a first one of the sub-channels. The digital data includes program data and identification data for the first sub-channel.
