  • Patent number: 12493768
    Abstract: A method for confirming legal compliance of a consumer product includes coupling a radio frequency tag to the consumer product, wherein after scanning the tag, the server transmits a request for descriptive information about the consumer product to an importer, a governmental entity, or an application user, transmits a request for verification of legal compliance of the consumer product to a governmental entity and transmits a request for a consumer product import tax calculation, other tax or governmental fee, and transmits the verification of legal compliance of the consumer product to a second importer, governmental entity, or application user.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 4, 2024
    Date of Patent: December 9, 2025

    Inventors: Pedro Balgañón Canela, Frank Herrera
  • Patent number: 12361251
    Abstract: A method for confirming regulatory entity registration of a consumer product and verifying age of a user of the consumer product includes coupling a radio frequency tag to the consumer product, storing in a database a record for each of a plurality of consumer products, and a record for each of a plurality of consumers, executing an application on a computing device for reading identifying data from the radio frequency tag and transmitting said data to a server that accesses a record in the database that corresponds to the product and transmitting a confirmation of regulatory entity registration of the consumer product to the application, wherein the application further reads user identification data and transmits it to the server which calculates an age of the user based on the user identification data, and if the age of the user is above a predefined age, then storing the user identification data.

  • Patent number: 12253321
    Abstract: The inventive technology comprises a novel thermal indicator system that incorporates one or more thermogenic compounds that may be applied to a gun component and indicate the temperature of a gun component during and after use. This novel thermal indicator system may indicate the temperature at which the gun component will cause burns, is unsafe to store, or if a pre-determined threshold temperature has been reached resulting in a loss of firing accuracy, as well as imminent, or actual component failure.
