Abstract: Apparatus and methods for content- and context-based biometric authentication are provided. The apparatus and methods may include using multiple biometric sensors and an authentication engine that decides which sensor(s) to use through a content- and/or context-based analysis. The apparatus and methods may include requesting authentication, analyzing the request to determine which sensor(s) is appropriate, prompting a user to use the sensor(s) and comparing the data received with data stored in a database to provide authentication.

Abstract: An exercise bike includes a frame, a pedal assembly, and a rotor mounted on the frame and operably connected to the pedal assembly. The rotor includes a hub with a plurality of blades extending radially outward from the hub. A rotor cover is mounted on the frame and at least partially encloses the rotor, and has opposed side portions and a middle portion extending between the side portions. One side portion has an opening, and the rotor cover further has slots extending on opposite sides of the middle portion. The bike also includes a moveable baffle that is moveable to selectively restrict air passage through the opening, and an actuator connected to the moveable baffle and including a handle and two legs extending into the slots. The actuator is moveable by the legs traveling along the slots to adjust the moveable baffle.

Abstract: An exercise bike includes a frame, a rotor assembly and a drive assembly mounted on the frame, where the drive assembly is configured to drive rotation of the rotor assembly, and a cover configured to at least partially cover the rotor assembly. The components of the drive assembly and the rotor assembly include structures that improve the performance of the exercise bike, including but not limited to a strong and rigid construction and improvements in belt tracking, user feel, effort consistency, synchronization, and rotor performance.

Abstract: A mobile device configured for communication with a multi-channel, operating-system (OS)-agnostic application programming interface (API) is provided. The API is configured to provide generic access to an OS-agnostic-device API output. The API may be coupled to a library of user credentials, and a library of data. The data provides information for one or more responses to a request from the user. The device may include an OS-based application and a translator. The translator translates communications between the OS-based application and said OS-agnostic API. The translator may convert an OS-compliant message header to a generic message header and to convert a generic message header to an OS-compliant message header. The OS-agnostic API may receive a communication initiation from the device. The device may be associated with a first channel. The API may request and receive 1) user credentials associated with the device and 2) data, authenticate the user credentials, and pull the data.

Abstract: A portable equipment stand to hold tactical equipment, protective equipment, and/or uniforms is disclosed. An example portable equipment stand includes a central frame, three legs hingedly connected to a first end of the central frame, two arms hingedly connected to a second end of the central frame, and a neck located at the second end of the central frame. The legs are rotatable between a first retracted position and a first deployed position. The two arms are located on opposing sides of the central frame and are rotatable between a second retracted position and a second deployed position. The neck is configured to move from a third retracted position to a third deployed position. The arms are configured to enclose at least a bottom portion of the legs when the arms are in the second retracted position and the legs are in the first retracted position.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for continuous real-time authentication are provided. The apparatus and methods may include using a biometric sensor on an Internet-of-things (“IoT”) device to measure a biometric attribute of a user. The measured biometric attribute may be transmitted to a server to compare to a stored biometric attribute and authenticate the user. The IoT device may continue to measure the biometric attribute of the user at a pre-determined interval. Each measurement may be used to authenticate the user. This continuous authentication process may take place without the user's conscious interaction with the IoT device. The apparatus and methods may include using the continuous authentication to process and approve a transaction the user requests.

Abstract: A portable oxygen concentrator designed for medical use where the sieve beds, adsorbers, are designed to be replaced by a patient. The concentrator is designed so that the beds are at least partially exposed to the outside of the system and can be easily released by a simple user-friendly mechanism. Replacement beds may be installed easily by patients, and all gas seals will function properly after installation.

Abstract: Methods for onboarding a client user to a real-time video chat authentication system is provided. Methods may include, during an onboarding session, receiving the client user's credentials. The client user's credentials may be received at a client user graphical user interface (GUI). Methods may include receiving an opt-in from the client user for authentication via video capture. The opt-in may also be received at the client user GUI. Methods may include initiating a video capture session at a video conferencing platform. The video conferencing platform may be executed at a client device and an administrator device. The platform may enable the client user to communicate with an administrative user. Methods may include capturing a video capture of the client user at the video conferencing platform. Methods may include storing the video capture at a database.

Abstract: One-time password (“OTP”) generation on a smartwatch is provided. OTP generation may include communication between an application on a smartwatch and an application on a smartphone. The request for an OTP may be received at the smartwatch. The smartwatch application may communicate with the smartphone application. An OTP may be generated within a third-party library within the smartphone application. The generated OTP may be transmitted from the smartphone application to the smartwatch application. The OTP may be displayed on the smartwatch.

Abstract: An actionable alert platform is provided. The platform may utilize artificial intelligence (“AI”) to formulate alert triggers that inform a user regarding unusual activity associated with a target transaction. The platform allows a user to enter customized criteria for an alert trigger and actionable responses for remediating the detected alert trigger. In response to detecting an alert trigger, the platform may formulate and transmit push notifications to a mobile device of user. The user may implement the actionable response directly from within the push notification. The platform may also provide push notifications to the user that advise on a status of the target transaction after applying the actionable response. An AI engine may generate additional alert triggers based on the criteria entered by the user. The AI engine may generate the actionable responses for any alert trigger.
