Abstract: This disclosure provides various systems and methods for three-dimensional printing in which data describing an object as a plurality of voxels is transferred as a print material to form the three-dimensional object independent of locking. That is, various systems and methods are provided herein in which the three-dimensional printing step is to transfer data representing various voxels into a corresponding physical object via a three-dimensional printer. The first step is repeated until all the voxels are printed without waiting for any of the voxels of print material to lock. Accordingly, the three-dimensional printer can be used to print at least one subsequent object while the first object finishes locking.

Abstract: The present disclosure illustrates pallet dismantling systems and methods. The disclosure provides pallet dismantling systems that use alignment forks, guides, and cutting tools to simplify the dismantling of pallets. The alignment fork comprising cantilevers with contact surfaces that abut a deckboard surface coupled to one or more stringers of the received pallet causing a junction between the deckboard surface and the one or more stringers to be in-line with the contact surfaces. Further, the dismantling system may comprise a cutting tool positioned planar to the contact surfaces of the cantilevers at a point along the alignment fork, the cutting tool to separate the one or more deckboards abutting the contact surfaces from the one or more stringers.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein relating to fusion reactors for fusing particles via multiple periodic collisions. A fusion reactor may include a first evacuated region, such as a chamber, with a plurality of charged particles therein. A uniform magnetic field may be applied to the region to radially confine moving charged particles within the region by inducing circular trajectories. Upper and lower electrodes may be positioned on ends of the region to axially confine charged particles within the region. An energizing beam may be pulsed at a cyclotron frequency corresponding to the mass and charge of the particles to cause oscillating periodic collisions of the particles along the beam path as the particles travel in the circular trajectories with increased velocity after each pulse of the energizing beam.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for managing remote media ownership, where the media involve physical media units (PMUs). The system includes a physical media storage facility that stores the PMUs, and a PMU transfer facility that receives PMUs from users and delivers PMUs to users. The system includes a controller that reads an ownership database to determine the PMUs owned by a user. The controller accepts a username and password to authenticate a user, and allows the user to access the content of the PMUs owned by the user upon authentication. The controller may further allow the user to buy PMUs, to sell owned PMUs, and to request delivery of owned PMUs once the user is authenticated.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system for remotely managing ownership of physical media units (“PMUs”), comprising a physical media storage facility for storing PMUs and a PMU transfer facility for receiving PMUs from and delivering PMUs to users. A controller authenticates a user, reads an ownership database to identify PMUs that the user owns, and allows the user to access content of the PMUs he owns. The controller also facilitates remote buying and selling of PMUs, as well as requests to deliver a PMU to its owner.
