  • Patent number: 11928241
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for consent management. A method may include receiving a first data request for user data associated with a user, the user data stored in a user data database; communicating a consent request to the requester system; receiving a consent response from the requester system; storing consent data associated with the consent response for the user data requested in the first data request in an immutable ledger; receiving a consent verification request from the user data database, the consent verification request based on a second data request for the user data from the requester system to the user data database; verifying the consent verification request based on the consent data; and communicating a consent verification response to the user data database, the consent verification response indicating consent from the user to share the user data with the requester system.

  • Patent number: 11782896
    Abstract: A method comprises receiving, by a server computer, a request message comprising at least a credential from a client device. The server computer can hash the credential to form an altered value. The server computer can then determine whether or not the altered value matches one of the hashed values stored in the database. If the altered value matches a matched hashed value, the server computer can determine a range of a plurality of ranges. The range can be associated with the matched hashed value. The server computer can then determine a data item associated with the range. The server computer can provide the data item to the client device.

  • Patent number: 11588556
    Abstract: A High Bandwidth Individual Channel Control via Optical Reference Interferometry (HICCORI) system actively controls the phase and/or polarization of the optical emission of each element in a tiled optical array. It can also actively align any high-frequency broadening waveform applied to the array beams for spectral broadening or data transmission. By maintaining consistent polarization and manipulating the phase relationships of the beams emitted by the array elements, the HICCORI system can manipulate the spatial pattern of constructive and destructive interference formed as the individual emissions coherently combine. Active feedback control allows the desired phase, polarization, and/or spectral broadening alignment to be maintained in the presence of external disturbances.

  • Publication number: 20220129432
    Abstract: A method comprises receiving, by a server computer, a request message comprising at least a credential from a client device. The server computer can hash the credential to form an altered value. The server computer can then determine whether or not the altered value matches one of the hashed values stored in the database. If the altered value matches a matched hashed value, the server computer can determine a range of a plurality of ranges. The range can be associated with the matched hashed value. The server computer can then determine a data item associated with the range. The server computer can provide the data item to the client device.

  • Patent number: 6469649
    Abstract: An apparatus for digitizing an analog electrical signal comprises a linearized sampler having an analog electrical input and a sampling input, a bandpass filter having a center frequency of at least half of the quantization rate of a quantizer in communication with the sampler, and the quantizer in communication with the bandpass filter. The linearized sampler in one embodiment is a linearized optical modulator with an optical input. The sampler frequency in another embodiment is chosen such that second-order distortion products generated in the sampler are separated in frequency from the sampled input band.
