  • Publication number: 20240076891
    Abstract: A system for basing drones is described. A network of geographically diverse hangars provides storage and charging locations as well as backhaul communications infrastructure and video monitoring. As drones are needed, a central command point tasks an available drone, which may or may not already be located in proximity to a target. If additional drones are needed, drones can be flown to the area of interest and continuous coverage provided by charging drones while an active drone is conducting the mission, then rotating charged drones into the active mission. Structures for the hangars, the overall system, and methods of operation are described.

  • Publication number: 20220067825
    Abstract: Systems and methods of dynamically creating credit limits and automatically mitigating risk in real time provide digital supply chain finance services for buyer-supplier pairs based on sets of related fast data and other event driven applications. Suppliers who sell goods and services to other businesses (buyers) use the systems and methods of the invention to request payment up to the dynamic credit limit from a third-party supply chain financial provider. Dynamic credit limits are calculated automatically based on digital analysis of data sets automatically pulled from multiple sources. Suppliers request payment against an approved and scheduled payment invoice by a buyer (“confirmed invoices”) earlier than the scheduled payment date (“early payment”).

  • Patent number: 6945250
    Abstract: A condom is provided with magnetic material disposed in a flexible polymeric material condom at the open end of the condom. The magnetic material may be a magnetized ferrometallic split ring in the open end rib or magnetized ferrometallic particulates embedded in the polymeric material adjacent the condom open end. A permanent or rare earth magnet is fixedly disposed in the condom package to provide magnetizing force to the ferrometallic material in of the rolled condom. Alternatively, a permanent or rare earth magnet in a split ring construction may be embedded in the rib formed at the condom open end.
