  • ADVANCED NARROW BAND TRAFFIC CONTROLLLER UNITS (TCU) AND THEIR USE IN OMNI-GRID SYSTEMS

    Issued US 20200059826

    Accordingly, the present invention is directed to novel tools and systems for controlling narrowband data (e.g., data communication and telecommunications) pathways through selective engagement with one or more narrow band platforms of an omni-grid system. These methods further comprise enhanced compression methods suitable to structure the data for controlled data flow in an omni-grid system. In particular, the tools and the systems of the present invention provide improved transmission to…

    Accordingly, the present invention is directed to novel tools and systems for controlling narrowband data (e.g., data communication and telecommunications) pathways through selective engagement with one or more narrow band platforms of an omni-grid system. These methods further comprise enhanced compression methods suitable to structure the data for controlled data flow in an omni-grid system. In particular, the tools and the systems of the present invention provide improved transmission to off-grid environments (e.g., stronger, faster, and stable with less latency, jitter, and/or packet loss under difficult/harsh signal conditions), including in the context of an urban environment where one may be off the grid temporarily due to an emergency, in educational settings, as well as for use in geographically remote locations not in proximity to physical network infrastructure (e.g., for Internet of Things data access).
    As such, one aspect of the invention provides an advanced narrowband traffic controller unit (TCU) for controlling narrowband data (e.g., data communication and telecommunications) pathways through selective engagement with one or more narrow band platforms of an omni-grid system, and engineered with enhanced compression methods suitable to structure the data for controlled data flow in an omni-grid system. In certain aspects of the invention, the advanced narrow band traffic controller unit comprises a machine-readable medium having instructions stored thereon for execution by a processor to perform a method comprising the steps of: receiving narrowband data into a data structuring queue on a second machine-readable medium; monitoring the data structuring queue to identify narrow band frequency; enhancing the narrowband data flow rate using data structuring compression selected based on the identified narrow band frequency for controlled data flow, a transmitting the structured data to the appropriate narrowband broadcast transmitter for broadcast.

Projects

  • Museum Scan - QRCode Museum Architecture

    We live in a global community, but most museums display in the local language only
    • Multi-lingual support is generally a subset of the available objects and requires booklets or pamphlets
    • Audio tour systems are very expensive, hard to change, and have limited language availability
    • Reading labels and tombstones within a darkened environment is very difficult, especially for special needs individuals
