Patent number: 11671529Abstract: A deployment server system may dynamically generate a user interface for a mobile application. The mobile application may comprise a set of interface pages and a set of workflow steps, and each workflow step may define a transition from a first interface page to a second interface page. The deployment server system obtains, from a mobile device, a workflow step request. The workflow step may include a transition from the interface page and transition data determined based on the interface page. The deployment server system determines a second interface page based on the interface page and transition data indicated in the workflow step request, generates a unit test for the second interface page. The deployment system validates the workflow step request by testing the second interface page using the generated unit test, and based on successfully validating the workflow step request, the deployment server may transmit the second interface page.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2021Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Bhavani R.

Patent number: 11550702Abstract: Disclosed here is a system to enable interaction between a user with a disability and a computer program. The system can obtain a representation of a user interface to present to a user. The system can determine an element associated with the user interface, where the element is configured to provide information to the user, however, the user interface presentation of the element at least partially fails to provide the information to the user. Based on the element, the system can determine an appropriate test to perform. The appropriate test indicates at least two of: a test to perform with a keyboard, a gesture test to perform with a mobile screen reader, and an audio test to perform with a screen reader. The system can generate an indication of the appropriate test.

Patent number: 11526322Abstract: The present disclosure provides technologies that enable users to graphically merge content displayed on a first computing device with content displayed on a second computing device by the use of a simplified gesture. For example, a user can hold a portable computer displaying content up to a screen of another computer displaying other content. The user can position the portable computer to align the rendering of the content with a rendering of the other content. Measurements of the alignment are processed to determine a location that is used to graphically merge the content of the portable computer at a specific location within the other content. A scaling factor can be used to control the size of the content that is placed within the other content. The scaling factor can be based on a user gesture, preference data, or knowledge of a computing device.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2018Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventor: Hannah Rebecca Lewbel

Patent number: 11327558Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for facilitating fast and intuitive investigations of security incidents by responding to physical gestures performed by security analysts within a virtual scene. A query triggers an alert for detecting security incidents that occur with respect to computing resources. Following the alert, the security analyst dons a Near-Eye-Display (NED) device and is presented with a virtual scene having control elements representing various data sets and/or data analysis operations relevant to a security incident. The security analyst investigates the security incident by performing hand motions to “grab-and-drag” control elements representing data sets. The security analyst may also perform hand motions to “tap on” control elements that represents a data analysis operation. Responsive to the hand motions, the system performs data analysis operations and displays a result within the virtual scene.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2020Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Benjamin Brown, Mohamed Rouatbi, Jeffrey Scott Shaw

Patent number: 11327648Abstract: While displaying a user interface that includes a plurality of application icons, a first input is detected on a first application icon associated with a first application. If the first input meets application-launching criteria which require that the first input has ended without having met a first input threshold, the first application is launched in response to the first input. If the first input meets menu-presentation criteria which require that the first input meets the first input threshold before an end of the input is detected, a contextual content object and a respective affordance that is associated with the contextual content object are concurrently displayed in response to the first input. The contextual content object includes contextually selected content automatically selected from the first application. The respective affordance, when activated, is configured to add the contextual content object to a user interface that includes information for multiple applications.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2019Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Jonathan R.
