Abstract: The system comprises an enclosed centrifuge furnace with a first chamber, a second chamber and a third chamber all of which include and share a tilt axis. The third chamber is concentric with the first chamber and operable at a first temperature to melt a material within the first chamber. The second chamber is concentric with the first chamber and operable at a second temperature lower than the first temperature to cool the material within the first chamber. The system includes a first mechanism to rotate the first, second and third chambers, simultaneously, to create a centrifugal force to maintain the material within the third chamber as the centrifugal force is applied. The system includes a second mechanism to position the tilt axis at an angle which causes the melted material to pour from the third chamber into the second chamber where the material is cooled.

Abstract: The embarrassment of passing gas in public is ubiquitous. Accordingly, certain aspects of the present invention are directed to providing filter underwear (also known as underpants) that is generally constructed with a single ply of underwear side panels that are separated by an activated carbon center panel that is removable from the underwear. Certain embodiments contemplate an odor control underwear being an underwear system that generally includes an underwear comprising a pocket that is fit to accommodate a removable activated carbon adsorbent sleeve. Accordingly, after at least one use (i.e., a time of wearing the underwear system), the adsorbent sleeve can be removed from the accommodating pocket, and therefore the underwear, whereby the adsorbent sleeve can be washed, dried, and reinserted in the accommodating pocket for another underwear use.

Abstract: The embarrassment of passing gas in public is ubiquitous. One solution is to wear a filter underwear that is generally constructed with a single ply of underwear side panels that are separated by an activated carbon center panel. The activated carbon center panel is attached to an elastic waistband at the underwear back and where the activated carbon center panel traverses between two leg openings to the waistband at the underwear front. The center panel is constructed with a five-ply activated carbon fabric that is sandwiched between cotton fabric, which is sandwiched between bamboo fabric. The five-ply center panel is greater than 1 mm thick to provide filtering capabilities to sufficiently reduce the odor of flatulence to an acceptable level that is not readily detected by a person close by.

Abstract: A method of determining flow speed in a low pressure environment. The method includes obtaining bi-directional acoustic data from a plurality of transducer pairs as a fluid moves relative to the plurality of transducer pairs. The method further includes measuring phase lags corresponding to the bi-directional acoustic data, and determining bi-directional flight times using the phase lags. Additionally, the method includes calculating a flow speed of the fluid corresponding to each transducer pair from the bi-directional flight times. The method includes correcting for at least one of temperature effects, pressure effects, and wake effects, using a system model. The method further includes generating a report including the flow speed of the fluid.

Abstract: A system and method is described for the touchless entry of a personal identification number (PIN) at a self-service terminal such as an automated teller machine (ATM). A mobile device includes a PIN entry application. The self-service terminal includes a wireless interface for communicating wirelessly with the PIN entry application in the mobile device. A communication channel is established between a particular customer's mobile device and the self-service terminal. The PIN entry application verifies a public key for the self-service terminal at the mobile device. The customer's PIN is encrypted by the PIN entry application at the mobile device using either an ephemeral symmetric encryption key or a one-time RSA PIN transport public key. The encrypted PIN is transmitted to an encryption processor at the self-service terminal. The encryption processor decrypts the PIN using the appropriate encryption key.
