Abstract: A system provides for a self-checkout terminal with various components. A receiver receives shopping data including prices of items that a customer has physically acquired or placed in a cart. A payment logic receives credential information associated with a monetary account for paying for the items. A message logic creates checkout data that includes data representing the collection of purchase items. A transmitter transmits the credential information to an account network for authentication and the receiver receives a response indicating if the monetary account is valid. The payment logic/self-checkout terminal indicates to the customer that a payment using the monetary account for the purchase items is authorized or not. When authorized, an authorization is received at the self-checkout terminal before the customer arrives at the terminal and the self-checkout terminal causes a payment transaction to be executed to provide for self-checkout using the monetary account without assistance by another person.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for creating cellular network performance indicators by correlating business data of subscribers with a geographic position. In use, one or more subscriber measurement reports associated with an authenticated cellular network subscriber identifier are received. Additionally, the one or more subscriber measurement reports are geo-location tagged with a geographic position estimate. Further, business data associated with the authenticated cellular network subscriber identifier is received. Moreover, the received business data is associated with the one or more corresponding subscriber measurement reports, based on the authenticated cellular network subscriber identifier, such that the business data is associated with the geographic position estimate to create one or more performance indicators.

Abstract: There is provided an integration of the leakage current functions of an RCD and the voltage sensing functions of other prior art protection devices. By integrating the two capabilities into one decision making system/algorithm, and considering the circuits performance in terms of leakage current as it correlated with elevated protective earth voltages (and vice versa), an embodiment is created which is able to “look into” a protected electrical system and make much more precise and discerning decisions on electrical status and probability of unsafe events. The resultant technology attends to the outstanding issues with the prior art technologies as they stand, and provides a protection solution that covers the entire range of electrical power wiring configurations and the practical complexities of modern electrical works.

Abstract: A terrestrial data communications wireless link includes a first link end that has a first directional antenna, a first beacon and a first redirecting assembly coupled to the first directional antenna. The wireless link also includes a second link end having a second directional antenna, a second beacon and a second redirecting assembly coupled to the second directional antenna. In use the first directional antenna and the second directional antenna are maintained in mutual alignment by the first redirecting assembly redirecting the first directional antenna in response to a signal from the second beacon and the second redirecting assembly redirecting the second directional antenna in response to a signal from the first beacon.
