A control method and system provides coded access to a system by acquiring account identification data corresponding to a combination of a plurality of symbols. The account identification data is transmitted, for example to a remote server, to correlate the account identification data against an account database to evaluate corresponding account information. Based on the account information, access to the system may be controlled.

Conventional techniques for logging and using a user's signature are insecure and inflexible. A system and method are provided which: i) translate a user's first signature, such as a user's voice signature, into a user's second signature, such as a radio frequency identifier signature; and ii) deploy the user's second signature. By translating the user's first signature into the user's second signature and deploying the user's second signature, the provided technique assures the authenticity of the user. Furthermore, the provided system and method enable additional authentication factors, such as a user's personal identification number, to be used with the user's first and second signatures in multiple combinations and sequences to assure the authenticity of the user. As such, the invention provides a security layer offering added security and added flexibility previously unavailable, and which may be applied in a variety of contexts, such as a user device or a retail transaction.

Disclosed is an advertising and marketing network where vehicles (especially traveling ones) are the advertising and marketing medium. Advertisers pay for a package where a certain number of vehicles display advertisement approved by the advertiser for a certain number of advertising impressions based upon average traffic on monitored roadways at specific times. The advertising is removeably affixed to vehicles. In one embodiment, this is accomplished by network personnel/vehicle operator at a designated toll booth/private or public facility adjacent to the monitored road area. The advertising is coupled to a tracking transponder that is read at different road points to generate specific credits for the advertiser and vehicle operator. Participating vehicle operators receive credit that may be used to either offset toll costs or to generate cash/credit at other participating businesses, municipalities, and the like. Municipalities and private institutions enabling the invention network may also reap a portion of the profits.

Creating a large fleet of vehicles, which gather wind energy and generate wind generated energy, such as electricity, is impeded by the cost to an individual vehicle owner. Accordingly, a system and corresponding method to gather wind energy and deposit stored wind generated energy for system credit is provided. The present invention includes a vehicle-based wind energy gathering device to gather wind energy and generate wind generated energy, a vehicle-based energy storage system, electrically coupled to the wind energy gathering device, to store wind generated energy, and means for depositing the stored wind generated energy for system credit. As such, individual vehicle owners have an incentive to participate in gathering wind energy and depositing wind generated energy, such as electricity. By taking advantage of potentially millions of participants and participating vehicles, the present invention creates a format for generating energy from multiple forms of wind energy on a wide-scale.

A roadway system for energy generation and distribution is presented. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the roadway system comprises a plurality of ground-based wind energy generating devices, one or more roads, and a roadway system electricity grid. The roadway system may additionally include, for example, a plurality of ground-based solar energy generating devices, one or more vehicle-based solar energy generating devices and one or more vehicle-based wind energy generating devices. The energy generating devices are connected to the roadway system electricity grid and substantially all of the ground-based wind energy generating devices are positioned on part of one of the roads or near to one or more of the roads to thereby allow energy generation from wind created from passing vehicles in addition to energy generation from atmospheric wind.

Method and system for manufacturing small wind energy gathering devices, for example, of geometrical dimensions tip to ⅛th of an inch (microdevices), employing micro-fabrication techniques. For example, three-dimensional single chemical composition parts of a small wind energy gathering device are manufactured using two-photon three dimensional lithography. Preferably, a plurality of such parts are manufactured in parallel, thereby optimizing the production process. The plurality of parts may be handled and assembled using precision instruments such as micro-tweezers, micro-scissors, and holographic lasers. Nanowires may be used to interconnect a plurality of the microdevices together, or to connect components of a particular microdevice. These nanowires are produced in nanowire arrays and are attached to a common base structure. Additionally, a form of injection molding and polymer materials may be utilized in the manufacturing of the small wind energy gathering devices (microdevices), which provide protective coatings and surfaces of reduced friction.
