Counsel:  Firm: BEHMKE INNOVATION GROUP LLC
1st Invent:  Brett Shockley (Bonita Springs, FL)
Inventors:  Genders: F=0, M=6
Abstract:
2000 char max
The techniques herein are directed generally to a ''zero-knowledge'' data management network. Users are able to share verifiable proof of data and/or identity information, and businesses are able to request, consume, and act on the dataall without a data storage server or those businesses ever seeing or having access to the raw sensitive information (where server-stored data is viewable only by the intended recipients, which may even be selected after storage). In one embodiment, source data is encrypted with a source encryption key (e.g., source public key), with a rekeying key being an encrypting combination of a source decryption key (e.g., source private key) and a recipient''s public key. Without being able to decrypt the data, the storage server can use the rekeying key to re-encrypt the source data with the recipient''s public key, to then be decrypted only by the corresponding recipient using its private key, accordingly.

Inventors:  Genders: F=1, M=17
Abstract:
2000 char max
A method for execution by a computing entity includes interpreting a fluid flow response from fluid flow sensors to produce a piston position of a piston associated with a head unit device. The head unit device includes a chamber filled with a shear thickening fluid (STF). The method further includes determining a door position based on the piston position. The method further includes determining parameters for wireless signals based on the door position. The method further includes facilitating utilization of the parameters for the wireless signals to promote successful communication of status and/or control of the door via the wireless signals.
