Abstract: A mobile device performs authentication with blinded tokens and swaps its international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) value. For authentication with blinded tokens, the mobile device generates a blinded token and provides it to a server to encrypt. To redeem the token, the mobile device unblinds the encrypted blinded token and provides it to the server along with a public key. To complete authentication, the mobile device receives, from the server, a nonce encrypted with the public key and decrypts the nonce with a private key. For swapping its IMSI value, the mobile device retrieves two eSIM profiles with corresponding IMSI values and configures the first of the two profiles as active. In response to a trigger, the mobile device changes the active profile from the first to the second, swaps the first IMSI value with a new IMSI value, and changes the active profile back to the first profile.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing a notification that a person is at a particular location. For example, a resident device may receive from a user device an image that shows a face of a first person, the image being captured by a first camera of the user device. The resident device may also receive, from another device having a second camera, a second image showing a portion of a face of a second person, the second camera having a viewable area showing a particular location. The resident device may determine a score indicating a level of similarity between a first set of characteristics associated with the face of the first person and a second set of characteristics associated with the face of a second person. The resident device may then provide to the user device a notification based on determining the score.

Abstract: A modular mud-in channel lighting system includes a modular channel and a modular connection box that is removably attached to the modular channel itself. Because the modular connection box is removably attached to the modular channel, a modular mud-in channel lighting system enables the creative installation of lighting solutions in a manner that is not constrained by framing or the location of pre-existing junction boxes. Further, a modular mud-in channel lighting system may be disposed at creative angles that are not limited to locations near to pre-existing junction boxes. As such, a modular mud-in channel lighting system is suitable for new construction as well as retrofits and remodels of existing construction and enables the installation of creative lighting solutions at aesthetic angles that are not possible with the limitations of conventional lighting solutions.

Various components can be color-coded and can have corresponding structures to indicate which components should be connected to one another during set-up. Such features can also help make the set-up process more intuitive for an operator, which can reduce the need for specialized training and reduce the number of potential errors.
