Patent number: 11349660Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for self-identification of a device. The disclosure utilizes generation of a public/private key pair, within the device itself, and completes at least a portion of an authentication process within the device itself using a securely stored private key that never leaves the device. By not transferring the private key away from the device, potential vulnerabilities of known systems due to transfer of identification information during or after manufacturing is effectively eliminated.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2019Date of Patent: May 31, 2022Assignee: Bose CorporationInventors: David Joshua Asher, Matthew J. Coles, James Lambert, C. Scott Lamb, Christopher Daly Vincent

Patent number: 10235965Abstract: A method for interacting with a virtual game environment in an actor/director model is performed on a first computing device in an actor mode of operation and a second computing device in a director mode of operation. Both devices display the shared virtual environment. The second device pairs with the first device and synchronizes with the virtual environment of the first device during the pairing. After the pairing, the first device receives a message from the second device to request a change in the virtual environment. The first device implements the requested change and transmits changes including the requested change to the second device. The second device displays the virtual environment and additional controls. After pairing, responsive to receiving a user input on a control of an element in the virtual environment, the second device generates and transmits a message to the first device to request the element change.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2017Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: Kuato Games (UK) LimitedInventors: Mark Horneff, Chris Liu, Kris Turvey, Scott Lamb, Richard Winter

Publication number: 20160220903Abstract: The method creates storybooks corresponding to user interactions with a virtual game environment. A computing device receives user input to control actions of a virtual character within a virtual game environment and records, without user input, a temporal sequence of events from the virtual game environment. Each event represents an interaction of the virtual character with the virtual game environment, and each event includes a respective image and respective text describing the respective event. Subsequent to the recording, the user is presented with a sequence of simulated pages corresponding to the sequence of events. Each simulated page includes the respective recorded image for a respective event and includes the respective text describing the event. For at least a subset of the simulated pages, the user modifies the respective text. An output file is generated that includes the sequence of simulated pages as modified by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2015Publication date: August 4, 2016Inventors: David Miller, Mark Horneff, Chris Liu, Scott Lamb, Kris Turvey

Patent number: 8892135Abstract: A method and apparatus for communication in a wireless sensor network. In one embodiment, one or more routers in a network may be available for communication with one or more star nodes at a randomized time and/or frequency. A connectivity assessment, which may be performed at several different frequencies and/or times, may be performed to evaluate the quality of communications between devices in the network. Primary and secondary communication relationships may be formed between devices to provide for system redundancy. One or more proxies may be maintained where each proxy includes a status of one or more devices in the network, e.g., one or more star nodes or routers. Proxies may be used to handle information requests and/or status change requests, e.g., a proxy may be requested to change a communication relationship between devices in the network and may generate command signals to cause the corresponding devices to make the change.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2007Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignees: Honeywell International SARL, Yokogawa USA, Inc.Inventors: Jay Philip Werb, Victor A. Berry, Howard P. Weiss, C. Scott Lamb
