  • Publication number: 20210184859
    Abstract: Systems and methods for validation and certification of digital assets using a blockchain are provided. An example method includes, using a hash function to generate at least one hash of at least one digital asset, the digital asset being associated with a plurality of digital assets, storing the hash to a database, determining that the plurality of digital assets have been digitally certified by an authorized user, in response to the determination, storing a record on the blockchain, the record including the hash of the digital asset associated with the plurality of digital assets, and upon receiving a request to verify authenticity of the digital asset, determining a further hash of the digital asset, and determining whether the hash stored on the blockchain matches the at least one further hash to selectively verify the authenticity of the digital asset.

  • Patent number: 9148935
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and systems for dual-technology occupancy detection are disclosed. One dual-technology occupancy detection apparatus includes a motion sensor sensing motion, an ambient light sensor sensing variation in ambient light, and a controller for detecting occupancy and controlling a building environmental parameter based on the sensed motion and the sensed variations in ambient light. One method of detecting occupancy for controlling lighting includes sensing motion with a motion sensor, sensing variations in ambient light with an ambient light sensor, and detecting occupancy and controlling activation of a light based on the sensed motion and the sensed variations in ambient light.

  • Patent number: 8558466
    Abstract: Embodiments of methods, apparatuses and systems for identifying an event are disclosed. One method includes sensing motion with a motion sensor, wherein the motion sensor is stationary, and the motion sensor senses motion of an object that is external to the motion sensor. The embodiment further includes matching the sensed motion with one of a plurality of stored patterns of events, and identifying an event associated with the sensed motion based on a match between a one of the plurality of patterns and the sensed motion. One apparatus includes a sensing device, wherein the sensing device includes a light sensor sensing motion and a processor. The processor is configured to match the sensed motion with one of a plurality of stored patterns of events, and identify an event associated with the sensed motion based on a match between a one of the plurality of patterns and the sensed motion.
