Abstract: Disclosed techniques enable digital ledger authentication using address encoding. A digital ledger is accessed. A wallet address is determined for a user, where the wallet address is associated with a cryptocurrency in the digital ledger. The wallet address is hashed and signed, where the signing is performed using a private key from a digital purveyor. A digitally mapped value is encoded based on the wallet address. A transaction is authenticated based on reverifying the digitally mapped value with a re-encoding or re-signing the wallet address. The reverified digitally mapped value is used to enable a smart contract. An entry is appended to the digital ledger, where the entry includes the digitally mapped value. A transaction is rejected due to the re-encoding of the wallet address not having a correct private key signature, based on non-authentication.

Abstract: Disclosed techniques enable hybrid digital ledger control with address encoding. A digital ledger is accessed using a centralized computing platform. The digital ledger comprises a decentralized blockchain. A wallet address for a user is determined, where the wallet address is associated with a digital token in the digital ledger. A digitally mapped value is encoded based on the wallet address. The digitally mapped value includes the wallet address, a transaction amount, and a type of digital currency. Access to the digital token is enabled, where the access is enabled using the encoding, the centralized computing platform, and the digital ledger. A smart contract is updated using the centralized computing platform, where the updating reflects the access enabled to the digital token.

Abstract: Disclosed techniques enable arbitration of electronic competitions using digital ledgering. A digital competition arbitration platform is based on secure, trusted digital ledgering techniques. Users who seek to compete in digital games and eSports subscribe to the arbitration platform. A competition between users employs a digital contract. The contract is executed using a digital ledger token. The outcome of the competition between players is verified based on input from both the competitors and randomly selected witnesses. When a dispute occurs between the players, a juror pool reviews evidence and witness results. Payouts are made based on the digital contract and the adjudged competition result. Compensation is provided to jurors and witnesses.

Abstract: A self-propelled vehicle which is particularly useful for disabled persons. The vehicle consists of a housing having a substantially flat top surface with a left and right side. The vehicle also has a first handle securely mounted to the housing at a position above the left side of the top surface at a height above the top surface sufficient to permit a user to grasp the first handle with their left hand when the user is standing on the top surface. The vehicle also has a second handle mounted to the housing at a position above the fight side of the top surface at a height above the top surface sufficient to permit the user to grasp the second handle with their right hand when the user is standing on the top surface. The first and second handles are spaced apart to permit a user to stand on the top surface between the two handles. The vehicle also has a first and second set of wheels mounted to the housing adjacent the left and right sides of the top surface, respectively.

Abstract: The invention comprises a process and apparatus for applying conductive heat to plastic film tapes in a stabilizing unit containing a plurality of rollers forming sets of rollers. Each roller in the set rotates progressively slower than the preceding adjacent roller. Some rollers have heated surfaces to reheat and heat soften the plastic film. Some rollers have cold surfaces to set the film. The progressively slower rotation of the rollers allows the film to release the stresses imparted to the film during the initial stretching operation. In so doing, the molecules rearrange themselves to provide an increased degree of tensile strength in the tapes. The reheating of the film causes shrinkage. However, the progressively slower rotation of adjacent rollers controls the degree of shrinkage and holds the shrinkage to a minimum.
