    Abstract: There is disclosed a secure remote actuation system that includes a network storing one or more acceptable inputs. The system also includes a central signal switch disposed inside an enclosure. The central signal switch stores therein the one or more acceptable inputs and user codes, which comprise a succession of the acceptable inputs. The system further includes a remote input receptor that, in turn, includes a user interface with a communication tilt plate that has a front side and a back side. The front side includes an outer touch surface. The back side includes electronic components mounted thereon, a raised center pivot and a plurality of spring loaded switches mounted thereon disposed around the periphery of the back side. As such, tilting the communication tilt plate by pressing proximate the periphery of the outer touch surface will activate two or more of the spring-loaded switches mounted on the back side of the tilt plate, thereby transmitting the one or more user codes. The system also includes a microcontroller for obtaining and comparing said one or more acceptable inputs to said one or more user codes. The system also includes a web application for receiving the one or more acceptable inputs and the user codes for a user. The web application is in electronic communication with the microcontroller and communicates information pertaining to recent user interactions with the secure remote actuation system to the user through the remote input receptor. The microcontroller obtains the one or more acceptable inputs from the network after the user begins to use the interface.

    Abstract: An apparatus for distributing data using a short-range wireless interconnection protocol for electronic devices includes a processor communicatively connected, using a communication bus, to a number of originator antennas, each of the number of originator antennas communicating with an originating device, a plurality of device antennas, communicatively connected to the communication bus, each of the plurality of device antennas communicating with a number of client devices, and a non-transitory storage medium. The non-transitory storage medium includes a receive module, a session identify module, and a send module. The receive module receives a data packet using one of the number of originator antennas. The session identify module identifies at least one communication session with at least one remote device associated with one of the plurality of device antennas. The send module sends the data packet to the at least one remote device associated with one of the plurality of device antennas.

    Abstract: A method for controlling communication between a remote device and a control server includes sending, over a long range radio communication link, to a number of remote devices, a number of reduced packets, each of the number of reduced packets causing each of the number of remote devices to generate a reduced response packet, the reduced response packet indicating a status of each of the number of remote devices, receiving, from a number of responding remote devices, a number of actual reduced response packets to identify when a remote device is in a report state, examining status data related to each of the number of remote devices, the status data comprising a number of attributes include a remote device reduced packet, a remote device reduced response packet, and a number of remote device attributes, when a fault is detected, generating a remote devices fault report, and transmitting, to a control server, a remote device fault report.

    Abstract: An apparatus for connecting a number of rotary blade unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is described. The apparatus includes a first physical connector, a first electrical connector, a second physical connector, a second electrical connector, a storage area, and a UAV control unit. The first physical connector attaches the apparatus to a first UAV. The first electrical connector connects electricity between the apparatus and the first UAV. The second physical connector attaches the apparatus to a second UAV. The second electrical connector connects electricity between the apparatus and the second UAV. The storage area stores an energy source for the apparatus. The UAV control unit includes a processor and storage medium. The processor and storage medium are in communication with a cloud based network and receive instructions for the operation of the UAV, including steering instructions, through the cloud based network from a remote control device.

    Abstract: An apparatus for receiving parcel through a door, the apparatus includes a processor communicatively connected to a network interface connection, a passcode entry station, an interior camera, a non-transitory storage medium. The non-transitory storage medium includes a receive module, an obtain module, an unlock module, an alarm module, and a lock module. The receive module receives, over the network interface connection, a number of access configuration parameters. The number of access configuration parameters comprising an access code and an access time. The obtain module obtains, from an access code input device, an input access code. The input access code indicates that a user has requested limited access to an area for parcel delivery according to the access configuration parameters. The unlock module unlocks a door to allow parcel delivery. The monitor module monitors that the parcel delivery person remains in the field of vision of the interior camera. The alarm module issues, using the network interface connection, an alarm when the parcel delivery person leaves the field of vision of the interior camera. The lock module locks the door after the parcel is delivered.
