Abstract: Thermochromic filters (200) are constructed using absorptive, reflective, or fluorescent dyes, molecules, polymers, particles, rods, or other orientation-dependent colorants (201) that have their orientation, order, or director influenced by carrier materials (202), which are themselves influenced by temperature. These order-influencing carrier materials (202) include thermotropic liquid crystals, which provide orientation to dyes and polymers in a Guest-Host system in the liquid-crystalline state at lower temperatures, but do not provide such order in the isotropic state at higher temperatures. The varying degree to which the absorptive, reflective, or fluorescent particles interact with light in the two states can be exploited to make many varieties of thermochromic filters. Thermochromic filters can control the flow of light and radiant heat through selective reflection, transmission, absorption, and/or re-emission. The filters have particular application in passive or active light-regulating and temperature-regulating films, materials, and devices, and particularly as construction materials and building and vehicle surfaces.

Abstract: There are disclosed systems and associated methods of performing coherent optical communication of quantum information between an emitter A and a distant receiver B, using a local local oscillator (LLO). Examples of LLO-based Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution (CV-QKD) are described. Self-coherent schemes are used, said schemes consisting in deriving both signal and phase reference pulses from the same optical pulse thus ensuring an intrinsic strong signal to reference phase coherence. Different CV-QKD designs implementing various self-coherence phase sharing schemes are described and compared in terms of secret key rate and hardware requirements. Strong phase noise resilience can be obtained with standard telecom equipment such as low cost lasers.

Abstract: Determining the location of a body area network enabled device on a user's body and using the location information to determine whether to send instructions or data to the device over the body area network, includes integrating an EMG sensor into a device that is wearable or otherwise meant to be in contact with or close proximity to an intended area of a user's body. The integrated EMG sensor may detect the electrical potential of the user's body at the point of contact. Variance of electrical potential across the user's body may be used to determine information regarding the location of the sensor, and thus, the location of the device on the user's body. The location of the device, in turn, may be used to determine whether to send instructions or data to the device over the body area network.
