Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for authenticating a user device using an authenticating device that has previously been associated with a user and/or a credential. The user may initiate a transaction at the user device. An authenticating device associated with the transaction may be sent an authentication request corresponding to the user device. The user may indicate whether or not the user device is authenticated utilizing the authenticating device. If the user device is authenticated, the transaction may proceed. If the user device is not authenticated the transaction may be rejected.

System and method utilizing chain of trust

An authentication request message from a user conducting an interaction at a resource provider computer is received. It is determined that data representing an indication that the resource provider is trusted by the user and including a trusted marker is present in a database. Authentication to the user is provided, and information indicating that the user has been authenticated and the trusted marker are sent so that authorization request message for the interaction that includes the trusted marker is generated. The trusted marker is validated, and the authorization request message including information related to the interaction and the validated trusted marker is sent to an authorizing entity computer.

Efficient and secure authentication system

A method is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a token gateway, a first request message from a token requestor computer. The token gateway determines at least one token service computer from a plurality of token service computers, each token service computer in the plurality of token service computers operating independently of each other. The token gateway transmits at least one second request message to the at least one token service computer and receives, at least one first response message comprising at least one token and/or supplemental data associated with the at least one token from the at least one token service computer. The token gateway transmits a second response message to the token requestor computer, the second response message comprising the at least one token and/or the supplemental data.

The CONVERGED MERCHANT PROCESSING APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS ('CMP') facilitates the generation of user accounts with merchants. The user may be logged into an electronic wallet or issuer account, and may initiate an account generation process with a one-click mechanism. The CMP may provide information to the merchant in order to facilitate the generation of the account after receiving data from the electronic wallet or issuer.

A system and method of establishing a resource provider as a trusted listing are disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a directory server computer, an indication from a user that a resource provider is trusted. The directory server computer is programmed to provide a first level of authentication. The method then includes storing, in a database, data representing the indication from the user that the resource provider is trusted. The method then includes receiving an authentication request message from the user conducting an interaction at the resource provider computer and determining that the data representing the indication from the user that the resource provider is trusted is present. In response to determining, the method includes providing a second level of authentication to the user before the user is allowed to complete the interaction. The second level of authentication is lower than the first level.

A coreless-coil shock tube package system includes a 'coreless' bundle of shock tubing, meaning that the tubing is not wrapped around a spool. The bundle may be a generally cylindrical coil of shock tubing. Optionally, two washer-like end plates abut the ends of the tubing coil for axial support. A self-adhesive tape covering partially covers the coil and end plates. A detonator is attached to one end of the tubing and lies tucked into the coil, through an end plate, for storage and transport. An igniter is attached to the tubing's other end. In use, the detonator is removed from the coil and attached to an explosive device. Then, the package is pulled away from the detonator and explosive, thereby uncoiling the tubing through the end plate for deployment. The igniter is actuated for igniting the shock tubing and activating the detonator and explosive.

The MULTIPLE MERCHANT PAYMENT PROCESSOR PLATFORM APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS ('MID-PLATFORM') enable merchants to customize the way payments made to them are processed. For example, a computer-implemented MID-Platform receives a payment request associated with a site (e.g., a website) and identifies a site profile associated with the site. The site profile is associated with one or more account processors and one or more transaction preference rules for selecting one of the account processors. The MID-Platform processes information associated with the payment request according to one or more transaction preference rules to select one of the account processors. Then, the MID-Platform sends a payment processing request to the selected account processor.

A safety light system on an excavator or parked vehicle that is manually operated by the excavator operator. The unit is typically controlled by a single button located in the excavator cab. The excavator operator presses the button. A green LED, or other green light, projects a green beam of light toward the rear of the truck. This signals the truck driver that he can begin backing toward the excavator. At a predetermined distance, the excavator operator again pushes the button. The unit switches to an orange light. Finally, in a final position, the excavator operator again presses the button to project a red light. As the truck driver backs toward the excavator, he first sees green, then orange and finally red. Upon seeing red, he knows to stop backing. A fourth push can again project a green light signaling a safe condition for drive-away.

Excavator safety system and method

A remotely controlled vehicle that can carry a laser detector or other survey equipment that can be wirelessly controlled from a piece of heavy equipment. A particular embodiment can be used to dig out level basements to a predetermined grade by placing a laser emitter on a support on the floor of the dig and maneuvering the remotely controlled vehicle carrying a laser detector from the cab of the digging equipment so that an entire basement dig can be dug out accurately level by a single person.

System and method for remote-controlled leveling

In one aspect of the invention, a system for sharing resources in an ad-hoc peer-to-peer network is presented. The ad-hoc peer-to-peer network includes a host device that is associated with a resource. A security application of the host device allows the user of the host device to share the resource with other devices in the network. The security application also allows the user to establish access policies for certain known devices within the network. An access policy established for a known device specifies what rights the known device has with respect to accessing the resource. The access policy has the characteristics of inheritance. Thus, when a device requests to access the resource, the security application of the host device determines an access policy for the device based on access policies of one or more of the known devices.

Distance-modified security and content sharing

A location dependent signal processor for radiant energy detector arrays which include two-dimensional spatial filtering and/or background normalizing, with means providing programmed control of the signal processor filter weighting and normalizer thresholding operations as a function of the location of each successive output pixel with respect to the periphery of the detector array, so as to enable the signal processor to minimize the effects of initialization and wrap-around pixels on the processor signal output.

A knock-down collapsible carrier for storing and transporting athletic equipment such as a bicycle or the like. The carrier comprises a hollow housing unit, shaped and dimensioned in a tri-dimensional box-like structure, adopted to contain a partially dismantled bicycle. The housing unit includes a front wall, a rear wall, two side walls, and a top member, each of which comprises a pair of light-weight layers of flexible composition, for removably housing a plurality of resilient rigidifying inserts. The carrier further comprises a plurality of strap bands for retaining the bicycle inside the housing unit, leaving a clearance space therebetween.
