Patent number: 11954016Abstract: The disclosed technology teaches rejecting, during validation, a sequence of components intended for interacting with a user. Included are providing a sequence setup GUI supporting construction of an executable sequence by connecting at least five components in a directed graph, and tracing multiple paths through the directed graph, including from at least one conditional branch at a first up-chain component, in which down-chain components accept as input and depend on output from at least one up-chain component, referred to as input chain dependencies. Also included are locating at least one error in use of a particular down-chain component when invoked following one of the multiple paths, where the error results from failure to satisfy any of the input chain dependencies of the particular down-chain component, and reporting the error during validation to a user of the GUI, before passing the sequence of components from validation to use in production.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2023Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Ping Identity International, Inc.Inventors: Krismy Alexandra Botkin, Benjamin Anthony Apple, Jonathan David Branch, Colin Madigan Dean

Publication number: 20240087381Abstract: Techniques are described for correlating entity identification information with refuse containers being serviced by a refuse collection vehicle (RCV). Location data can be collected by location sensor(s) on the RCV at a time when a triggering condition is present, such as a time when a lift arm is operating to empty a refuse container into the hopper of the RCV. The location data can be provided as input to an algorithm that estimates a container location through a vector offset to account for the distance and direction of the RCV lift arm relative to the location sensor in the RCV. The container location can be correlated with parcel data to determine the parcel that the container was on or near to when it was serviced, and the customer or other entity associated with the parcel can be correlated to the particular container based on the analysis.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Anthony Romano, Michael Dean Geary
