Patent number: 12287869Abstract: A Secure Environment Public Register (SEPR) provides a method and system that allows precious metals in the shape of bar(s) or units to be certified, specially numbered to provide exact linkage to an owner, allow secure movement of precious metals between secure facilities, and though Blockchain allow secure transfer of ownership between individuals and organizations. The SEPR allows gold and other precious metals to be easily held and traded in commerce with all the advantages of holding precious metals. The SEPR system allows exact audits of the metal bars on hand and avoids over-selling units since each bar is serialized and ownership is documented in a public register.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2024Date of Patent: April 29, 2025Assignee: P4 X Group Inc.Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, John Shelly Bowling, II

Patent number: 12141327Abstract: An internet profile dilution device and method are provided. To prevent the sale of individual user's internet searches to advertisers, an internet profile dilution software is configured to significantly dilute the individual search and browsing by opening a site the individual has selected, or in the default state, will automatically select from a variety of news outlet websites for dilution of the individual's internet profile. The internet profile dilution software will scan the site, for links to another article, and will navigate to that article and spend a random amount of time appearing to read the article. The software will search for particular words from the title of the article to continue to further dilute the internet profile of the individual. The individual's internet search is sufficiently diluted by the internet profile dilution software so that an accurate profile of the individual's internet search and browsing cannot be established.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2021Date of Patent: November 12, 2024Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, Andrew Christopher Isett, John Shelly Bowling, II

Patent number: 11874909Abstract: Current biometric access control systems rely on a biometric sensor at the access control point, a design which has shortcomings on throughput or biometric image quality, which is a particularly important limitation for vehicle traffic, particularly when vehicles do not stop. We disclose a Two-Phase Biometric Access Control System (TBACS) that includes biometric, multi-factor authentication in which the biometric sensor is not required to be at the access control point, the access authorization decision is made prior to arriving, and the access confirmation is verified at the access control point using a rapidly-read token that identifies the person seeking access.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2021Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Ideal Innovations, Inc.Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, John Shelly Bowling, II

Patent number: 11678806Abstract: The Personal Warning Temperature (PWT) is a method of determining a person's personal warning temperature that defines a fever for that person. The PWT may also be used to provide an indication to recommend medical evaluation for a person. The method includes analyzing a person's body temperature measurements taken over time when the person may be healthy, in order to find the person's average temperature, a standard deviation, a channel defined by an upper and lower temperature bound using the average and standard deviation, such that nearly all body temperatures fall within the channel, and a personal warning temperature similarly defined using the average, and the standard deviation. A personal warning temperature may be used for improved and accelerated awareness of a person's health status.Type: GrantFiled: July 4, 2022Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Ideal Innovations, Inc.Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, John Shelly Bowling, II

Patent number: 11568695Abstract: An information-based access control system for facilities. The control system includes a mobile app and securely connected central server, which is cloud-based. The app collects and transmits multiple biometric and other authentication factors and the facility enabling the server to verify identity and check to ensure the person is authorized to obtain access. If so, the server issues a limited duration approved biometric, which can be displayed to the facility guards, compared with a on-site image taken with a biometric sensor at the location, and used to control signal lights and electronic gates to obtain access quickly, conveniently, inexpensively, and securely. Also, a vehicle on the move can acquire access without having to slow down or stop if the biometric sensor can obtain an image inside the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2022Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer

Patent number: 11430553Abstract: A system and method of testing, recording, tracking, and verifying the health of an individual to other persons while providing confidence that the individual user has taken and reported to at least one medical measurement, and this measurement has been identified as normal or not normal to the specific individual user, is provided. A medical instrument which is self-administered by the said individual user and a Green Screen Health Verification System (GS-HVS) server are provided. Software that contains prearranged decisions and protocols to provide guidance to said individual user and to an individual user's supervisor and records any abnormal reporting from said individual user and provides alerts based on said protocol. Software returns guidance from said GS-HVS server to said individual user, and upon said GS-HVS indicting that said individual user has good health, software displays a good health status or “Green Screen” on said individual user's said mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, John Shelly Bowling, II

Patent number: 11375903Abstract: The Personal Warning Temperature (PWT) is a method of determining a person's personal warning temperature that defines a fever for that person. The method includes analyzing a person's body temperature measurements taken over time when the person is healthy, in order to find the person's average temperature; standard deviation; a channel defined by an upper and lower temperature bound using the average and standard deviation, and a selected multiplier for the standard deviation, such that nearly all body temperatures fall within the channel; and a personal warning temperature similarly defined using the average, standard deviation, and another selected multiplier for the standard deviation. The method also determines a correction or interpretation of a person's body temperature based on the time of day to account for known variations associated with circadian rhythm. A person can use their personal warning temperature for improved and accelerated awareness of their health status.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2020Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: IDEAL INNOVATIONS INCInventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, John Shelly Bowling, II

Also, a vehicle on the move can acquire access without having to slow down or stop. An RFID device in a person's vehicle who is seeking access is provided, along with an RFID reader which obtains approval, based on the multiple authentication factors and the RFID tag, to permit access to the moving vehicle. A controlled access building, room, venue or meeting is provided.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2021Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer

Patent number: 11170894Abstract: The Access and Temperature Monitoring system (ATMs) checks the identity and health of persons seeking access to a facility, building, event, airport border, or controlled area. It quickly checks the person's identity by recognizing the person, for example, by facial recognition, or by reading a unique token the person has, such as a smart card. If the person seeking access is recognized, the system quickly checks the health of the person. For example, a contactless measuring of core temperature is taken and is then compared to an on-file core temperature of the individual to see if it is elevated. If elevated, a secondary check is made by a precision medical instrument and compared to the precision data on file. Networking ATMs together to an Access Control Center will further assist in identifying virus outbreaks and reduce response time to assist in saving lives.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2020Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, Loran Dean Ambs, John Shelly Bowling, II
