Patent number: 11978046Abstract: Users of a communication system can initiate electronic payments during a communication session hosted by the communication system or via a social network identity page hosted by the communication system. The communication system detects a payment signal from a user of the communication system and the collects payment information details either by displaying a payment object interface in a communication application of the user or receiving payment information input directly from the user's communication device. The payment information includes sender and recipient payment account identifiers that are communicated to a payment processing system for processing and delivery of the designated payment amount to the recipient.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Travis Harrison Kroll Green, Michael DePasquale, Boris Mizhen, Josh Ostrow, Peter Schmitt, Kevin Michael Bierhoff, Alevtina Stolpnik, Avery Pennarun, Narelle Cozens

Patent number: 11954705Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for content quasi-personalization or anonymized content retrieval via aggregated browsing history of a large plurality of devices, such as millions or billions of devices. A sparse matrix may be constructed from the aggregated browsing history, and dimensionally reduced, reducing entropy and providing anonymity for individual devices. Relevant content may be selected via quasi-personalized clusters representing similar browsing histories, without exposing individual device details to content providers.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Michael Kleber, Gang Wang, Daniel Ramage, Charlie Harrison, Josh Karlin, Moti Yung

Patent number: 10746752Abstract: A specimen processing system is capable of processing specimens carried on slides. The specimen processing system can sequentially deliver slides and opposables to specimen processing stations. The specimen processing stations can use the opposables to apply a series of liquids to the specimens. The applied liquid can be moved along the slide using capillary action while the specimen processing stations control the processing temperatures. The applied liquid can be in a fluid-carrying gap. The opposable can contact the slide to vary a cross section of the fluid-carrying gap.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2016Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: Ventana Medical Systems, Inc.Inventors: Michael Otter, Brian Howard Kram, Carl David Martin, Jessica Wifall, Kevin David Marshall, Christine Tse, Josh Harrison

Patent number: 10669566Abstract: A system for automated microorganism identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing comprising a reagent cartridge, a reagent stage, a cassette, a cassette, stage, a pipettor assembly, an optical detection system, and a controller is disclosed. The system is designed to dynamically adjust motor idle torque to control heat load and employs a fast focus process for determining the true focus position of an individual microorganism. The system also may quantify the relative abundance of viable microorganisms in a sample using dynamic dilution, and facilitate growth of microorganisms in customized media for rapid, accurate antimicrobial susceptibility testing.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2018Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: Accelerate Giagnostics, Inc.Inventors: William L. Richards, Austin Ashby, Matthew Ketterer, Kevin Marshall, Josh Harrison, Matthew Mette, Paul Richards, Wayne Showalter, Jasmin Cote, Steven W. Metzger, Ken Hance, Meghan Mensack, Carlos Michel, Elke Allers, Dulini Gamage, Landon Prisbrey, Oleg Gusyatin, Alena Shamsheyeva, Ben Turng, Andrew Ghusson, Kurt Reinhardt, Phillip C. Halbert, Solene Bourgeois
