Patent number: 11995609Abstract: In one embodiment, a processing device receives a first digital fingerprint of a media item along with a first content management rule. The processing device separately receives a second digital fingerprint of the media item along with a second content management rule. The processing device determines that the received digital fingerprints are for the same media item based upon a match between the first digital fingerprint and the second digital fingerprint. The processing device determines that all rights to the media item have been accounted for, and then determines a set of actions to be performed for hosted media items comprising the media item based at least in part upon the first content management rule and the second content management rule. Processing logic may also perform a conflict resolution process for conflicting rights claims to the media item.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2022Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: Audible Magic CorporationInventors: Vance Ikezoye, David Price Williams, Michael Thomas Edwards, Stephen John Grillos, John R.

Patent number: 11978296Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to cash handling devices that provide intelligent monitoring and management of cash cycles. A cash handling device having at least one processor, a communication interface, and memory may receive, from a mobile device, a request to process a pre-staged transaction. Subsequently, the cash handling device may generate and present a graphical identifier based on the mobile device requesting access to the cash handling device. Next, the cash handling device may verify that the mobile device is authorized to perform the pre-staged transaction based on the graphical identifier being scanned by the mobile device and cause a connection to be established between the cash handling device and the mobile device. Thereafter, the cash handling device may identify and process the pre-staged transaction associated with the mobile device. Then, the cash handling device may generate a notification indicating completed processing of the identified pre-staged transaction.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventors: Paul Martin Mattison, Sr., Matthew E. Williams, Carl Parziale, Pavan Singaraju, Anne Price, David Smiddy, Brandon Kozlowski, Jennifer Raley

Patent number: 11158013Abstract: In one embodiment, a processing device receives a request to claim ownership of a first hosted media item on a first media sharing platform, wherein the request is received from a rights holder that holds one or more rights to a claimed media item that is incorporated into the first hosted media item. The processing device adds an indicator of the ownership of the rights holder to a first entry for the first hosted media item in a data store. The processing device determines that a second hosted media item having a threshold similarity to the first hosted media item is hosted by a second media sharing platform. The processing device automatically adds an indicator of the ownership of the rights holder to a second entry for the second hosted media item without receiving a separate request to claim ownership of the second hosted media item.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2020Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: Audible Magic CorporationInventors: Vance Ikezoye, David Price Williams, Michael Thomas Edwards, Stephen John Grillos, John R.
