Abstract: A vehicle includes a semi-active suspension including suspension dampers controllably adjustable in accordance with electronic stability control commands and ride and handling commands. Vehicle steering response states, turning direction states and vehicle dynamics states are binary coded in respective state variables and suspension control calibrations are binary coded in calibration words. Integrity and security of state variables and calibration words are ensured in efficient binary digit resource allocation schemes.

Abstract: A method and system for coordinating a vehicle stability control system with a suspension damper control sub-system includes a plurality of dampers, each of which are controlled directly by the suspension damper control sub-system. A plurality of sensors sense a plurality of vehicle parameters. A supervisory controller generates vehicle damper commands based on the plurality of vehicle parameters for each of the dampers. A damper controller in electrical communication with the supervisory controller receives the vehicle damper commands and generates sub-system damper commands based on a portion of the plurality of vehicle parameters for each of the dampers. The damper controller also determines if any of the vehicle damper commands for any one of the dampers has authority over the corresponding sub-system damper command.

Abstract: A biometric fingerprint device for preventing fraud based on the device having standalone, self-authentication of the identity of predetermined user(s) and its interactivity with a database that is initiated via a controlled singularity of registration, i.e. contemporaneous registration of a user's fingerprint(s) into a database and registration, initialization, and authentication of that same fingerprint(s) onto a standalone biometric fingerprint device.

Abstract: The present invention is a basketball game having a basketball, a basketball court, a plurality of basketball goals. A plurality of teams each having a plurality of players plays the basketball game on the court and shoots the basketball in the direction of the basketball goals. Also included is a deck of cards that each have a front face containing a separate and distinct identifier unique to each card. The basketball court includes a playing board with varying sizes facilitating the playing of basketball games in a variety of areas corresponding to the playing board. The playing board has site identifiers located on the playing board which are associated with each of the unique identifiers of each of the cards. Each player draws a card and attempts to successfully shoot the basketball through one of the basketball goals while located on a matching site identifier. Succeeding players reiterate the procedure until the game is ended based by predetermined rules. Point scoring is associated with each shot.
