  • Patent number: 11605121
    Abstract: A method and system of handling an alternative pick-up using vehicle information is disclosed. Imaging data is received from at least one imaging device. The at least one imaging device is configured to provide a field-of-view of a predetermined area associated with a retail location. A vehicle identifier for each vehicle within the image data is extracted and compared to each user profile associated with an order in a set of orders. Each user profile includes a primary vehicle identifier and at least one secondary vehicle identifier and the extracted vehicle identifier is compared to the at least one secondary vehicle identifier in each user profile. The extracted vehicle identifier is associated with a first order in the set of orders when the extracted vehicle identifier matches the secondary vehicle identifier of the user profile of the first order.

  • Patent number: 11594079
    Abstract: A system is provided and generally includes a server and an associate computing device. The server may receive location video data comprising at least one image from a camera directed to a location, such as a designated area of a parking lot. The server may detect one or more objects in the image, and determine a bounding box based on the detected objects. The server may also determine a confidence value corresponding to the bounding box. The confidence value may be determined based on an area of the image defined by the bounding box and a predefined class. The server may then generate an arrival message based on the determined confidence value, and transmit the arrival message to the associate computing device.

  • Patent number: 11443061
    Abstract: A backup or storage management system is provided that can secure data within a primary storage environment that stores data in an unsecured format. The storage management system can automatically analyze data received for backup from the primary storage environment and determine whether the data includes information that has been identified as sensitive and/or information that is determined within a threshold degree of probability to be sensitive. The storage management system can then modify the storage of the data that includes sensitive information at the primary storage environment, thereby enabling the data to be secured within the unsecured, or partially secured, primary storage environment. Advantageously, in certain embodiments, by securing data with sensitive information within an unsecured storage environment, embodiments disclosed herein can reduce the occurrences of a data breach or data leak.

  • Patent number: 11373197
    Abstract: A historical-data module may retrieve historical prices and/or sales numbers for products at a presently-relevant, historical reference time and at other times in an interval encompassing the reference time. A comparison module may generate relative price values and/or sales-number values by comparing prices and/or sales numbers at the reference time to those at other times in the interval for various products. A selection module may select a subset of products with a favorable weighted combination of relative price values and/or sales-number values for a product report presented over a communication network, potentially with a graph of historical prices for the products. Information about a viewer of the product report may further tailor the report. Viewer information may include signals of product interest identified in social-networking posts by natural language processing, viewer search and/or purchase data, the viewer's relations in a social graph of a social networking platform, and/or geo-targeting.

  • Patent number: 11244529
    Abstract: A system is provided and generally includes a server, an associate computing device, and a customer computing device. The server may receive data from the customer computing device indicating that a customer is picking up items from a predetermined location. The server may compute an estimated wait time for the customer based on one or more machine learning processes. In some examples, a number of unexpected customers that may arrive is determined. The machine learning process may compute the estimated wait time based on the number of unexpected customers. The machine learning process may be trained with historical data. The estimated wait time is transmitted to the customer computing device, and is displayed to the customer. In some examples, the server sends a list of customers waiting to be serviced to the associate computing device. The list may be prioritized based on estimated wait times for those customers.
