A method and a system for producing a change in a medium. The method places in a vicinity of the medium an energy modulation agent. The method applies an initiation energy to the medium. The initiation energy interacts with the energy modulation agent to directly or indirectly produce the change in the medium. The energy modulation agent has a normal predominant emission of radiation in a first wavelength range outside of a second wavelength range (WR2) known to produce the change, but under exposure to the applied initiation energy produces the change. The system includes an initiation energy source configured to apply an initiation energy to the medium to activate the energy modulation agent.

A disinfecting human interface device with monitoring and safety enhancement system that utilizes user detection and sensors to detect proximity and is designed to provide user feedback on safety, disinfection and decorative lighting. Also having a UV transmissive material designed to enable disinfection of hard to reach surfaces. This disinfecting human interface device has an automatic interlock to protect the user from UV exposure and logs the exposure limits versus exposure. It is connected to a bus system that collects the data and programs the options and enables communications, and potentially to other networks like the cloud.

Disclosed are novel processing methods for green coffee beans that result in novel green coffee bean products, including products that incorporate whole green coffee beans which is combined with a whole hemp powder or CBD. Methods for processing green coffee beans include selecting whole coffee beans in their fresh green unroasted state with naturally-occurring levels of phytonutrients, sterilizing and drying them, applying iterative grinding processes and stabilization techniques, all while avoiding high temperatures. A similar method is used to prepare a whole hemp powder, which may then be combined with the whole green coffee bean powder.
