Abstract: The application describes an authentication process that incorporates voice commands with an HTTP interface module to perform a multifactor authentication (MFA) process. For example, a first computer system may initiate the MFA process by sending, with a HTTP interface module maintained by the first computer system, a request to initiate the MFA process to the second computer system. The MFA process may also transmit an one-time password (OTP) to a first user device. The first computer system may receive an audible recitation of the OTP from a second user device. The OTP may be parsed and used to generate an HTTP request. The HTTP interface module may send the HTTP request to the second computer system. When the second computer system authenticates the user based at least in part on the non-audible file, the first computer system may receive confirmation of authentication of the user to initiate the transaction.

Abstract: Embodiments of an electromagnetic coil assembly are provided, as are methods for the manufacture of an electromagnetic coil assembly. In one embodiment, the method for manufacturing an electromagnetic coil assembly includes the steps of providing a braided aluminum lead wire having a first end portion and a second end portion, brazing the first end portion of the braided aluminum lead wire to a first electrically-conductive interconnect member, and winding a magnet wire into an electromagnetic coil. The second end portion of the braided aluminum lead wire is joined to the magnet wire after the step of brazing.

Abstract: Embodiments of a high temperature electromagnetic coil assembly are provided, as are embodiments of a method for fabricating such a high temperature electromagnetic coil assembly. In one embodiment, the high temperature electromagnetic coil assembly includes a coiled anodized aluminum wire and an electrically-insulative, high thermal expansion ceramic body in which the coiled anodized aluminum wire is embedded. The electrically-insulative, high thermal expansion ceramic body has a coefficient of thermal expansion greater than 10 parts per million per degree Celsius and less than the coefficient of thermal expansion of the coiled anodized aluminum wire.

Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for supporting a wire having a minimum tolerable bend radius. The device comprises a core portion with a longitudinal axis supporting at least a first portion of the wire and a flange portion attached to the core portion supporting at least a second portion of the wire. The device has at least one hole with a first opening in the first surface defined by a first rim and a second opening in the second surface defined by a second rim. The hole allows the wire to pass through and also supports the wire. The hole is oriented in three dimensions to forestall a bend that may occur in the wire having a bend radius that is less than the minimum tolerable bend radius of the wire.
