Abstract: A biometric authentication platform uses fault-tolerant distributed computing to determine if a supplied biometric live scan and template are from the same person. Features provide additional protection for biometric data. The template and live scan may be encrypted using a symmetric encryption key. The encrypted template and live scan may be sent with copies of the symmetric key, each copy further encrypted by a public key associated with one processor's public-private key pair. Each processor may decrypt a copy of the symmetric key, which may then be used by the processor for decrypting the live scan and template for matching. A decentralized user ledger may store an encrypted copy of the biometric template, with the key stored locally in a registered device. Alternatively, a decentralized user ledger may store a hash of the biometric template, for verification of a template that is maintained on a registered device.

Abstract: The devices and systems disclosed herein improve on existing weapon system control handles, by replacing complicated spring and cam components with a gauge shaft. The use of a gauge shaft eliminates unnecessary part-complexity and extra assembly labor. The use of a gauge shaft increases operational response and accuracy while decreasing cost and weight of weapon system control handles. Moreover, the gauge shafts can be readily repaired or replaced, reducing the overall costs of maintenance associated with damaged weapon system control handles. In alternative embodiments, a disk gauge is used in place of gauge shafts.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for concurrent resource sharing amongst concurrent sessions over a network. Examples include receiving, from a first requesting device for a first session of a shared resource plan, a request for a first resource request amount and reserving a first reserved resource amount from a resource quota of the shared resource plan based on the first resource amount A termination message is received, from a second requesting device, for terminating a second session. The termination message includes a resource usage amount to be committed from the resource quota. Based on determination that the resource quota is exhausted based on at least the first reserved resource amount, at least a portion of the first reserved resource amount is allocated to the resource usage amount, and the shared resource plan is updated to reflect the allocation. Said allocating and said updating provides for exhausting the resource quota.
