Patent number: 10997808Abstract: The present application provides an unlocking solution. In this solution, after obtaining a digital key seed, a user mobile device can generate a digital key for multiple times by using the digital key seed and first check data corresponding to a current unlocking operation, and then send the digital key to a smart door lock for verification and unlocking. Because the digital key includes the first check data only corresponding to the current unlocking operation, an attacker cannot use the digital key to perform unlocking again even if the attacker obtains the digital key. In addition, because the digital key seed can be used for multiple times, a smart door lock server does not need to be connected each time to obtain the digital key. Therefore, both security and ease of use are satisfied.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: Advanced New Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Xi Sun, Hongwei Luo

Patent number: 10892901Abstract: The present application provides a facial data collection and verification solution. In this solution, after collecting a face sample, a collection device uses the face sample and check data including a random number as to-be-signed data, performs signature by using a device private key, to obtain a facial data signature, and then obtains trusted facial data based on the to-be-signed data, the facial data signature, and a digital certificate that includes a device public key. When performing verification on the trusted facial data, a facial recognition server sequentially performs verification on the digital certificate that includes the device public key, the facial data signature, and the check data. Because content used for the verification process is added for the face sample on the collection device, subsequent verification cannot succeed if a transmitted communication packet is replaced by an attacker. Therefore, a replay attack is prevented at the collection source.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2020Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: Advanced New Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Xi Sun, Hongwei Luo

Publication number: 20200363109Abstract: A cooling system includes a second receiver that receives refrigerant from a low side heat exchanger. A pipe connects the second receiver to a first receiver. A vapor portion of the refrigerant in the first receiver can flow through the pipe to the second receiver. A compressor is used to create a pressure differential in the second receiver relative to the first receiver such that the pressure in the first receiver is greater than the pressure in the second receiver. This pressure differential effectively acts as a pump that pushes the liquid refrigerant in the first receiver towards the low side heat exchanger.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2020Publication date: November 19, 2020Inventor: Xi Sun
