  • Patent number: 11824234
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a fuel cell electrical power system, a first fuel cell module, a second fuel cell module, a heat exchanger, a common coolant, a first coolant piping branch, and a second coolant piping branch. A first pump and a first valve are disposed on the first coolant branch, and a second pump and a second valve are disposed on the second coolant branch. The fuel cell electrical power system is capable of functioning in a condition in which the second fuel cell module and the second pump are not operating to cause substantially all of the flow rate of coolant fluid produced by the first pump to circulate through the common coolant piping and to circulate substantially none of the flow rate of the coolant fluid produced by the first pump through the second fuel cell module.

  • Publication number: 20210068760
    Abstract: Sleep systems having embedded sensors are described. In one aspect, a sleep system includes a mattress and one or more force sensors embedded within the mattress. The force sensors are positioned within the mattress to sense movement of an occupant of the mattress. The sleep system also includes one or more processors coupled with the one or more force sensors. At least one of the processors is configured to determine sleep state information for the occupant based on data obtained from one or more of the force sensors.

  • Patent number: 9608826
    Abstract: A system and method for implementing an interoperable credential management protocol for processing online transactions. The protocol, referred to as the Partner Key Management (PKM) protocol provides an improved alternative to traditional public key infrastructure (PKI), particularly for use in high-value commercial transactions which require additional controls on the use of credentials for authentication and authorization. According to the PKM protocol, a user may take advantage of credential interoperability by using the same credential at a plurality of different financial institutions for authentication or digital signatures. Additionally, the credential interoperability achieved according to the PKM protocol allows the user to employ the same credential at a plurality of financial institutions for the purpose of digital or electronic signatures.
