Abstract: An apparatus, including an electrical plug or a plurality of external electrical connectors; a first circuit, wherein the first circuit is an open circuit or an essentially open circuit; a second circuit, wherein the second circuit includes an indicator for indicating an electrical current flow in the second circuit; a third circuit, wherein the third circuit is designed to open a fuse or to trip a circuit breaker; and an electrical switch. The electrical switch is electrically connected to the electrical plug or to the plurality of external electrical connectors, wherein the electrical switch is capable of connecting the electrical plug or the plurality of external electrical connectors to the first circuit, to the second circuit, or to the third circuit.

Abstract: An apparatus, including a fabrication platform; at least one fabrication tool capable of forming, adding to, or subtracting from, an object of manufacture or a component thereof; a three-dimensional guide system for guiding a movement of the at least one fabrication tool; at least one sensor for determining a distance or a depth of a point or point of or on the object of the manufacture or the component, the fabrication platform, the at least one fabrication tool, or the three-dimensional guide system; a controller capable of controlling a position or an operation of the fabrication platform, the at least one fabrication tool, or the three-dimensional guide system; a user input device for inputting an instruction, data, or information, into the apparatus; and a database for storing an instruction, data, or information, for manufacturing, fabricating, forming, or repairing, an object of manufacture or a component.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, including storing information regarding an allowed or disallowed operation of a vehicle or vehicle system, a premises or premises system, or an article in, on, or in the vicinity of, a vehicle or premises or associated with a respective user, operator, passenger, or occupant, of the vehicle or premises, determining, with or using a processing device or computer, an operating or an operational status, condition, or state, of the vehicle or the premises, processing, with or using the processing device or computer, information for controlling, disabling, enabling, or monitoring, an operation of the vehicle, the premises, or the article, in response to the determined operating or an operational status, condition, or state, and generating or transmitting, with the processing device or with the computer, a control signal which controls, disables, enables, or monitors, an operation of the vehicle, the premises, or the article.
