Publication number: 20130073682Abstract: A network (20) includes a first processor (22) for maintaining a Web page (34) having an embedded first code module (36) and accessible through a Web address (38). A second processor (24) supports a Web browser (52) for receiving transmission of the Web page (34) and executing the first code module (36). When executed, the first code module (36) issues a first command (93) to retrieve a second code module (90) from a server system (26). The server system (26) includes a database (68) having a service response (162, 176, 186) associated with the Web address (38). A processor (62) assembles the second code module (90) having the service response (162, 176, 186). When the second code module is retrieved, the first code module (36) issues a second command (106) to initiate execution of the second code module (90) to provide added function to the Web page (34).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2012Publication date: March 21, 2013Applicant: Augme Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Charles P.

Patent number: 8379634Abstract: Systems and methods to route a call over a voice and data network (VDN) are provided. A particular method includes receiving a call from a calling device at a telecommunications gateway (TCG). Authentication data is received via the call. A determination is made whether a user account associated with the authentication data is authorized to route calls via the TCG to a VDN. When the user account is authorized to route calls via the TCG to the VDN, call data received at the TCG via the call is converted into a format compatible with the VDN. The converted call data is sent via the VDN to a destination device.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2009Date of Patent: February 19, 2013Assignee: Augme Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Doug Bender, Anthony Zalenski, John M Cooney

Patent number: 8335232Abstract: Systems and methods of Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) communication are provided. A particular system includes a VoIP endpoint. The VoIP endpoint is adapted to monitor a packet loss measure between the VoIP endpoint and a second VoIP endpoint during a VoIP communication using a first CODEC. The VoIP endpoint is also adapted to negotiate with the second VoIP endpoint to select a substitute CODEC having a nominal data rate that is lower than an in-use nominal data rate of the first CODEC.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2008Date of Patent: December 18, 2012Assignee: Geos Communications IP Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Augme Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Ali Awais

Publication number: 20120310727Abstract: A method and system for measuring interest in a product. A processor operating on a server receives an identifier associated with a mobile computing device. The processor determines a location of the mobile computing device within a marketing environment and associates the location of the mobile computing device with a location of a product. The processor obtains interaction data indicative of an engagement of the mobile computing device with the product and determines a measure of interest in the product using the interaction data. Alternatively, data indicating an interaction of the mobile computing device with a product are received by the processor. The product location, which is known, is used to determine the location of the mobile computing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2012Publication date: December 6, 2012Applicant: Augme Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Nathaniel T. Bradley, Mark Baker, Sean Bradley, Joshua S. Paugh, Anthony Iacovone, Douglas F. Bender, Jim G. Crawford

Publication number: 20120205436Abstract: A system for enhanced barcode decoding and image recognition and method therefor. Target image data and ancillary image data are received at a server from a client device. Using the target image data and the ancillary image data, enhancement parameters are chosen to augmenting and/or enhanced the target image data. A code database is queried using the augmented/enhanced image data to identify codes that that match the target image. When multiple possible matching codes are returned in response to the query, a trending pattern associated with at least one of the target image data and the ancillary image is identified and is used to select the most probable match from the multiple possible matches.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2012Publication date: August 16, 2012Applicant: Augme Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Glen Thomas, Scott Michael Palconer, Edward B.

Patent number: 8069169Abstract: The disclosure details the implementation of apparatuses, methods, and systems for information querying and serving on the internet based on profiles. Information and/or advertisement providers may use a code triggered information server to serve context, demographic, and behavior targeted information to users on the internet. Users, in turn, trigger the provision of information by scanning or observing codes or information, or by selecting web links. The triggers, together with geographic, temporal, and user-specific information, are obtained by the server that receives, processes, and records the message. Based on these messages and a user profile—which may include continuously updated user-specific behavior information, situational and ambient information, an accumulated history of trigger messages, and integration with outside database information—the server selects information to serve to a user on the internet from an information base.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2007Date of Patent: November 29, 2011Assignee: Augme Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Dudley Fitzpatrick, Jason Alan Snyder

Patent number: 8069168Abstract: The disclosure details the implementation of apparatuses, methods, and systems for information querying and serving in a virtual world based on profiles. Such virtual worlds may include, for example, massively multiplayer online games like The Sims Online, Everquest, World of Warcraft, Second Life, and/or the like. Information and/or advertisement providers may use a code triggered information server to serve context, demographic, and behavior targeted information to users in a virtual world. Users, in turn, trigger the provision of information by scanning or observing codes or information, or by making decisions within a virtual world such as attempting a mission within a game. The triggers, together with virtual world geographic, temporal, and user-specific information, are obtained by the server that receives, processes, and records the message.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2007Date of Patent: November 29, 2011Assignee: Augme Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Dudley Fitzpatrick, Jason Alan Snyder
