Patent number: 11922406Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for locking-in currency exchanges. One method includes providing, by a graphical user interface (GUI) of a wallet application, a customer request, wherein the customer request is a request for a currency transfer between a customer account of the customer to a recipient account of a recipient, wherein the customer account is associated with a first type of currency and the recipient account is associated with a second type of currency, presenting, by the GUI of the wallet application, a locked-in exchange rate for a time limit and data corresponding to the exchange rate and the time limit, exchanging, by the wallet application, an amount of the first type of currency for an amount of the second type of currency based on the exchange rate, and receiving, by the GUI of the wallet application, an indication of a transferred amount for a currency transfer.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2023Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Sayali Bhos, Harmit Singh Dhanoa, Laura Marie Fontana, Marc Le Boeuf, Matthew Shepherd, Nikolai Stroke, Duc M.

Patent number: 11628560Abstract: An artificial muscle system includes a collapsible skeleton, a flexible skin, and a muscle actuation mechanism. The collapsible skeleton is contained inside a volume defined, at least in part, by the flexible skin. The flexible skin and the collapsible skeleton are configured for the flexible skin to provide a pulling force on the collapsible skeleton when a pressure difference exists between the inside of the sealed volume and a surrounding environment to change at least one of the dimensions and thus geometry of the collapsible skeleton. The muscle actuation mechanism includes at least one of the following to deploy or contract the collapsible skeleton: (a) a fluid displacing, releasing, or capturing mechanism configured to increase or decrease fluid pressure inside the sealed volume; and (b) a heating or cooling element configured to change the temperature of fluid in the sealed volume.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2018Date of Patent: April 18, 2023Assignees: President and Fellows of Harvard College, Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyInventors: Shuguang Li, Robert J. Wood, Daniela Rus, Daniel M. Vogt, Nicholas W. Bartlett

Patent number: 10612986Abstract: A printed stretchable strain sensor comprises a seamless elastomeric body and a strain-sensitive conductive structure embedded in the seamless elastomeric body. The strain-sensitive conductive structure comprises one or more conductive filaments arranged in a continuous pattern. A method of printing a stretchable strain sensor comprises depositing one or more conductive filaments in a predetermined continuous pattern into or onto a support matrix. After the depositing, the support matrix is cured to embed a strain-sensitive conductive structure in a seamless elastomeric body.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2018Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: President and Fellows of Harvard CollegeInventors: Jennifer A. Lewis, Joseph T. Muth, Daniel M. Vogt, Ryan L. Truby, Yigit Menguc, David B. Kolesky, Robert J. Wood
