Abstract: Using synergic AI in multi-layered radio networks, a global location service based on remote learning has been realized by a system for coupling the BTx devices of the IOT to the IP Packet Data network that powers the Internet. In a first embodiment, a smart device is configured as a radio proximity-actuated “community nodal device” by an “App” that operates as part of the system. The community nodal device is given instructions to function as a “soft switch” to automatically “upswitch” local area Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi®, or 6LoWPAN “messages” (and radio contact logs received from endpoint nodes that represent IOT radio signal topology) to a cloud-based server, where the messages are interpreted for the benefit of a particular user or a community of users, and commands may be transmitted for execution to a remote device or a network of endpoint nodes.

Abstract: Spectral color remastering systems for color and value management in digital optical devices, including cameras and displays. The systems incorporate a spectral color reference target device with reflective color patches and a database of factory spectral scans unique to each reference target patch. The colored patches are arranged in a pattern on a surface visible to the optical device. The system is equipped with automated instructions for locating the patches, analyzing the color and tone of each patch, and for calculating a “relative color profile” specific to the ambient illumination. The reference target device may also include emissive color patches for making an “absolute color profile”.

Abstract: Described here are compositions, methods and apparatus for biological and physical geoengineering. A vertical spar buoy or spar buoy network is provided. The buoys or array of buoys are designed to resist wave motion while supporting an analytical platform at a depth such that particulate flux of fixed carbon is indicative of sequestration in the ocean's depths for one hundred years or more. Sedimentary deadfall through the 100-Year Horizon is measured to validate the flux of fixed carbon. Issuance of validated carbon sequestration certificates and monetization and trading of those certificates are described. Also provided are compositions and methods for increasing bioactive surface area and nutrient levels so as to promote carbon sequestration. Regeneration of carbon dioxide in the mesopelagic water column is reduced by providing complex habitat in the photic zone, thus ensuring higher complexity of trophic levels and sedimentary deadfall having larger particulate size.

Abstract: Described here are compositions, methods and apparatus for biological and physical geoengineering. Disclosed are inorganic particles, prill, pucks, or floats for dispersal on a body of water. These compositions are found to A) increase yields for pelagic aquaculture, B) increase carbon sequestration, and C) provide immediate relief from global warming by directly increasing surface albedo, reducing sea surface temperatures, and indirectly by increasing cloud nucleation activity. A vertical spar buoy or spar buoy network is provided. The buoys or array of buoys are designed to resist wave motion while supporting an analytical platform below the 100-Year Horizon. Sedimentary deadfall through the 100-Year Horizon is measured and flux of fixed carbon is reported and validated. Issuance of validated carbon sequestration certificates and monetization and trading of those certificates are also described.
