Publication number: 20240086410Abstract: A system and a method facilitating access to and use of contextual identity information during law enforcement encounters for minimizing confrontational tensions are disclosed. A user updates information corresponding to a user, his/her associates, and a vehicle on a government server and an insurance server. A law enforcement official uses a law enforcement device to access the government server, the insurance server, and a law enforcement server. The law enforcement official accesses the government server, the law enforcement server, and the insurance server to verify the identification of the user and the vehicle. The system allows the law enforcement official to have required information on the law enforcement device to verify the identification of the user and the vehicle. The law enforcement official verifies the identification at ease thereby reducing potential hostile situations with the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 21, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Mary D. Jackson, Brenton Mohair, Brian Simons, Damon Willis, Chapelle Riggins

Patent number: 11651068Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and validating certified electronic credentials are disclosed. A publisher may receive a certified electronic credential order from a credentialer and prepare a plurality of certified electronic credentials. The publisher may associate each credential with authentication information and a credential record, and retain a database of associated authentication information and credential records. The publisher may provide validation services, receiving a validation request through a credentialer's validation portal, and provide a response through the credentialer's portal indicative of the validity, additional information about the credential and/or the credential holder. The credential holder may assign a personal access key to control or limit the validation of a credential. A validating entity may receive credential validation through the credentialer with a heightened degree of confidence in the validation and lack of forgery.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2021Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignee: PARADIGM, INC.Inventors: Peter Alan Johnson, Christopher Simon Jackson, Robert Allen Huffman

Publication number: 20230055120Abstract: A multi-pass catalytic converter can divide a catalyst block into several catalytic volumes and enable the exhaust gas to flow through each volume in two or more passes consecutively. As the exhaust gas in an early pass can emit sensible thermal energy and chemical reaction energy to preheat the remaining catalytic volumes via conductive heat transfer, it can shorten the catalyst light-off time for the later passes and the whole catalyst block. By recouping the previously lost dissipating heat from the early catalytic volume, the present disclosure can significantly reduce the catalyst light-off time and emission concentration. Furthermore, one or more mixing chambers can be utilized to thoroughly mix the exhaust gas.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2022Publication date: February 23, 2023Applicant: Pinnacle Engines, Inc.Inventors: Michael Willcox, Simon Jackson, Brede Kolsrud
