The circuitry is further configured to detect the tamper attempt based a change to the physical characteristic and to perform at least one action in response to detection of the tamper attempt for protecting the electronic device from the tamper attempt.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a temperature controlled charcoal grill and smoker that enables users to better control the cooking and smoking temperature relative to previous solutions. In some embodiments, for example, a user may place a divider in the interior of a fuel basket to coarsely adjust the amount and type of solid fuel used to heat a food-cooking enclosure of the temperature controlled charcoal grill and smoker. In addition, the user can also position a heat deflector tent above one or more heat transfer openings in a grease tray to further adjust the cooking and smoking temperature. Further still, the user can provide even finer control (including closed-loop control) over the cooking and smoking temperature using a controller that controls the speed of a fan that directs combustion air into the fuel basket.

Abstract: A kite for a system for extracting energy from the wind, the kite comprising: a body having a wing for providing lift; means for connecting the wing to a tether; and means for controlling the flight of the kite in the wind, wherein the wing is constructed with an asymmetry in a spanwise direction from a first end of the wing to a second end of the wing to provide the wing with a naturally asymmetric shape at least when in flight. The asymmetry may be provided to optimise the shape of the wing for a flight pattern in which one end of the wing has a higher speed than the other end of the wing. For example, the asymmetry may be optimised to allow the kite to follow a flight pattern resembling a circle or spiral, from the point of view of a base unit of the system.

Abstract: The invention provides a mechanical apparatus comprising: a main wheel rotatable about a main axis; four radially spaced pendulum axes parallel to and around the main axis, and four pairs of weighted pendulums. Each pair is mounted to the main wheel for 360° rotation about a separate pendulum axis. A latching mechanism associated with each pendulum pair releasably but independently holds one or both pendulum of a pair at one or more rotational position, the engagement and/or release of a pendulum by a latching mechanism being operated by the movement of pendulums within the same or other pairs and/or by the rotation of the main wheel. As the main wheel rotates about the main axis the pendulums rotate about the pendulum axes under the control of the latching mechanism.
