Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for secure storage and transmission of a cryptocurrency encryption key. The apparatus comprises a microprocessor, a security module comprising a memory storing a first private key and a first public key, a quantum computing module comprising a quantum chip with one or more qubits, a speaker, and a microphone. The microprocessor converts a random string generated by the quantum computing module into a second private key. The microprocessor creates a second public key using the second private key. The microprocessor encrypts the second private key using the first private key from the security module. The microprocessor generates a signature for the second public key using the first private key. The microprocessor generates, using the speaker, ultrasonic sound waves corresponding to the second public key and the signature, and transmits the ultrasonic sound waves to a remote computing device.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems that make use of light scattering techniques, such as the use of a multiphoton laser-scanning microscope, to quantify the scattering directionality of second harmonic generation (SHG) from biopsy samples of cancer in order to predict efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Abstract: An electronic payment and authentication system that includes features to verify the authenticity of a payer, validate debit data, and facilitate debit (as opposed to credit) payment transactions. The electronic payment system allows a consumer to purchase items and services via a network while utilizing a debit transaction. The invention provides merchants with the ability to verify the identity of the consumer, determine if the consumer is a good debit transaction risk, and retrieve debit data associated with a particular consumer.

Abstract: A system for generating and processing an electronic funding application is disclosed. The system includes a memory storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to transmit the electronic funding application to a client and enter financial data into the funding application. The financial data includes a magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) line, a currency amount, and an account identifier. The instructions further transmit the financial data to a server, validate at least a portion of the financial data by comparing a portion of the financial data to data representing valid demand deposit accounts, convert the MICR line to an item compatible with an automated clearing house (ACH) network, and submit the item and the currency amount to the ACH network. The currency amount is transferred from the demand deposit account of the customer to the financial account of the customer.

Abstract: A control circuit controls power generation by a power cell in a presence of fuel and oxidant through electrical control. The control circuit may be extended to an array of power cells or array of banks of power cells to configure the cells or banks in series-row and column combinations to generate power in a selectable manner. The controller may include basic power maintenance and control of the array of power cells, and high level control modules may provide unique power generation control to cause the array to cold start, output time-varying waveforms, output multiple DC voltages from a single source of energy, regulate voltage or current, and so forth. Because the power cells may be configured in vast arrays, power cells may be connected to a group of other power cells in the array and driven with a time-varying voltage or pulse to self-clean catalyst of contaminants.
