  • Patent number: 11921544
    Abstract: A ground accessible internet of things (IOT) base, cabinet and block with enclosures can rigidly support IOT devices mounted on vertical poles. The block can weight 2,000 pounds or more and can be placed on a ground surface and provide a rigid support for elongated poles. The block does not require digging or excavation of the ground. IOT electrical components that can be placed in protective enclosures within the block or attached to the elongated pole. The cabinet and base supports solar pane allowing tilting poles and enclosures to be mounted between them.

  • Patent number: 11209120
    Abstract: A system comprises a pole, a conduit track, and a sliding assembly that slides along the conduit track. The pole is configured to support an optical system that includes a camera or antenna. The sliding assembly and conduit track are disposed within an interior of the pole. The sliding assembly supports electrical components used in operation of the optical system, such as power components, storage devices, and communication modules. Cables extend from the optical system, through the conduit track, and to the electrical components supported by the sliding assembly. An access opening along the pole provides an operator easy access to the electrical components. Moreover, all of the electrical components and cables are disposed within the pole and protected from outside elements. The system allows electronic systems power and optics to be deployed in a cost effective, efficient and secure manner in locations alongside roads and other access ways.

  • Patent number: 10817592
    Abstract: A system comprises a Content Tracking System (CTS) and Content Tracking Network Modules (CTNMs). The CTS and CTNMs identify, track, report and block piracy over a network. The CTS stores content distribution network information (CDNI) and copyright profile information. The CDNI includes blacklist sites and whitelist sites. A content generating entity generates digital content and registers the content with the CTS. The CTS generates copyright profile information, and forwards the CDNI and the copyright profile information to all of the CTNMs on the network. Each of the CNTMs monitors network traffic and detects whether a destination address of a packets matches one of the blacklist sites. If a match is detected, then the CTNM tracks all packets having the same source address as the matched packet, effectively monitoring a user. The CTNM forwards this information to the CTS to report piracy, identify new pirate sites, and to prevent further piracy.

  • Patent number: 10643271
    Abstract: An acquisition content profiling device (ACPD) comprises a power module, a controller module, and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) module. The ACPD has a terminal that receives a signal from an acquisition content system having an enclosure. For example, the acquisition content system is an analog video camera system, and the ACPD fits within the enclosure and is powered entirely via the video camera system. The ACPD receives acquired content from the video camera system via the analog terminal. The ADC module converts the acquired content into a digital signal, and the digital signal is supplied onto the controller module. The controller module has dedicated hardware that detects motion, detects features according to a feature profile (such as license plate information), segments the acquired content to protect private information, marks the acquired content with identifying information of the owner of acquired content, and distributes the processed content to a third-party.

  • Patent number: 9332879
    Abstract: A vaporizer bowl having an integral internal grinding mechanism has a plurality of internal stainless steel prongs and is split in hemispherical halves. In use, a substance used to create a desired vapor is placed within the bowl. The prongs grind/cut the substance as the halves of the bowl are turned in opposing directions. Such action ensures that the substance is completely consumed, allowing for less waste or the use of less material.
