Abstract: Verifying authenticity of a hydrogen fuel canister by utilizing at least one unique identifier element (UIE) associated with a fuel canister; inputting the UIE into a communication device; querying a database with said communication device to determine a value for the UIE; placing a hole matrix on a canister into a matrix interface reader; measuring a value associated with the position of one or more movable fixtures in the matrix interface reader; comparing the value obtain via the matrix interface reader with the value associated with the UIE and, using the comparison to authenticate or not authenticate if the hydrogen in said canister may be used, is disclosed.

Abstract: A device is disclosed, having a programmable processor programmed to cause a fuel cell authentication device to obtain a first unique identifier element (UIE) associated with a first hydrogen fuel cartridge and host information associated with a host device configured to use fuel from the first fuel cartridge. Said device may determine that the first fuel cartridge is authorized for use with the host device, based on data exchanged via a data communication network with a remote cartridge tracking system, the first UIE, and the host information. Yet further, the authentication device transmits authorization data to the host device indicating that the host device is permitted to use fuel from the first fuel cell cartridge.
