Patent number: 10365895Abstract: A synchronized true random number generator (SRNG) includes a pulse source that provides a synchronized pulse signal synchronized with a known time, an oscillator to make a clock signal, a time synthesizer, and a triggerable true random number generator (TRNG). Another embodiment includes a plurality of independent triggerable TRNGs, separated by a separation distance, that produce free TRNG output. A separation distance is a distance greater than the product of the speed of light (C) multiplied by the generation period. A generation period of a TRNG is the period from the start of generating a random number until the random number can be determined. A triggerable single-photon-detector TRNG comprises first and second single-photon detectors, a light source, first and second pulse-generator circuits, and a first-pulse detector. A triggerable photon-shot-noise TRNG contains a photonic detector comprising two photodiodes connected back-to-back, and light source (e.g.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2017Date of Patent: July 30, 2019Inventor: Scott A.

Publication number: 20160062735Abstract: Mind-enabled question answering (MEQA) systems (300, 340) and methods (400, 500) produce answers (313) that are not inferable from information available from private databases, online searching or other traditional sources. MEQA systems utilize information provided by using devices (200) and methods that are responsive to an influence of mind. Preferred embodiments of MEQA technology use a Bayesian Network to calculate the probability of an answer's correctness. MEQA systems and methods utilize high speed non-deterministic random number generators (NDRNGs). Preferred NDRNGs (202) achieve high statistical quality without randomness correction, which allows improved response of a mind-enabled device (200, 302).Type: ApplicationFiled: May 7, 2014Publication date: March 3, 2016Applicant: Psigenics CorporationInventor: Scott A.

Patent number: 7752247Abstract: An RNG circuit is connected to the parallel port of a computer. The circuit includes a flat source of white noise and a CMOS amplifier circuit compensated in the high frequency range. A low-frequency cut-off is selected to maintain high band-width yet eliminate the 1/f amplifier noise tail. A CMOS comparator with a 10 nanosecond rise time converts the analog signal to a binary one. A shift register converts the serial signal to a 4-bit parallel one at a sample rate selected at the knee of the serial dependence curve. Two levels of XOR defect correction produce a BRS at 20 kHZ, which is converted to a 4-bit parallel word, latched and buffered. The entire circuit is powered from the data pins of the parallel port. A device driver interface in the computer operates the RNG. The randomness defects with various levels of correction and sample rates are calculated and the RNG is optimized before manufacture.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2006Date of Patent: July 6, 2010Assignee: The Quantum World CorporationInventor: Scott A.
