A system and method are provided for conditional delivery of electronic content from a sender to a recipient. The content may be secured and authenticated so as to control the delivery only to intended recipients, e.g., using an authorizing entity to grant permission for such delivery, and in some instances using blockchain to control the transfer of the rights in the content.

Authenticated and authorized transfer of content over a communication network

A system and method are provided for conditional delivery of electronic content such as images or video stream content over a communication network. In some embodiments, a condition for receiving such content is determined, for example a verification of a biometric fact as a face recognition or a finger print. The content will then be delivered conditioned on the satisfaction of the condition. In some embodiments, facial detection technology is used continually while sent content is being displayed to ensure that content is being viewed solely by the intended recipient. In some embodiments, the recipient's reaction to sent content is recorded on video and sent to the sender as a condition of viewing the sent content. In some embodiments, two or more users interact with one another in real time in a secure video conference.A computer-implemented method for securely managing access to a process includes: receiving a request to access the process; capturing, with a camera coupled to the device, a real-time image of the user's face; initiating a facial authentication of the recipient's face using the real-time image of the recipient's face; after receiving a confirmation that the real-time image of the recipient's face matches a prestored image of the recipient's face: providing access to the process; while providing access to the process: continuously detecting whether any faces are within the viewing range of the camera; when only one face is detected, continuing to provide access to the process; when (a) no faces are detected or (b) two or more faces are detected: automatically stopping access to the process; and displaying a notification that the recipient must facially reauthenticate in order to re-access the process.

Securely managing access to a computer-implemented process using facial recognition and facial detection

An apparatus for charge-assisted release of a ski binding includes an explosive material, a battery, an electrical circuit, and a processor. The explosive material is mounted on or in a ski, a ski boot, and/or a ski binding. The electrical circuit extends from the explosive material to the battery, the electrical circuit including a switch having a connected state in which the battery and the explosive material are electrically connected through the switch and a disconnected state in which the battery and the explosive material are electrically disconnected. The processor is electrically coupled to the switch and configured to generate an output signal that transitions the switch from the disconnected state to the connected state in response to an input signal from one or more sensors.

Safety mechanism for use with snow sport boot and binding system

Some aspects include a ski binding system using controllable electromagnets, alone or in combination with permanent magnets, as means of attaching or releasing a ski boot to a ski during use. Some aspects include a ski binding system using a controllable solenoid. In some aspects, microprocessor-based control releases binding electronically based on input from sensors located in binding, ski and/or boot, as well as in other equipment or clothing connected to them or to skier, or binding releases when a mechanical threshold is overcome. In some aspects, sensor data are recorded for analysis of system performance and for adjustment and improvement of system parameters based on data analytics.

Sensor-connected processor-controlled snow sport boot binding

A ski binding release system includes a spring that is releasably maintained in a first state using a pyrotechnic fastener. In the first state, a ski boot is secured in the ski binding. The pyrotechnic fastener is electrically coupled to an activation circuit. The activation circuit includes a battery, a plurality of sensors, a switch, and a controller. When the controller determines that the skier has fallen, the controller generates an output signal that transitions the switch from a disconnected state to a connected state. In the disconnected state, the pyrotechnic fastener is electrically disconnected from the battery. In the connected state, the pyrotechnic fastener is electrically connected to the battery. Electrical energy from the battery causes the pyrotechnical fastener to explode to transition the spring from the first state to a second state to release the ski boot from the ski binding.
