Patent number: 10282774Abstract: A chain of establishments provides an online ordering system that allows a customer to order virtual items or services from an online menu. When an order is placed, the customer receives an order code that may then be verified at one of many establishment locations at one of many times to initiate order fulfillment. When the order code is verified at a particular restaurant, a point-of-service (POS) system maps the virtual items associated with the order to actual, in-stock items or services that are available at the particular establishment. The order may then be fulfilled and provided to the customer. One advantage of the disclosed technique is that the customer may pickup the order from any desired establishment location, and is not required to select a particular location when the order is placed. Consequently, the customer is provided with streamlined and flexible order placement and fulfillment experience.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2013Date of Patent: May 7, 2019Assignee: FISHSIX RCInventors: Jonathan Kaplan, Jay Amando Domingo Llacuna, Stanley Peter Demarta, Christopher Baldwin

Patent number: 10044778Abstract: A user interface for sharing media items with others. From a sender's perspective, embodiments of the invention allow for an easy-to-use drag-and-drop technique that is more user-friendly than conventional techniques. From the recipient's perspective, embodiments of the invention allow media items from multiple sources to be aggregated into a single viewport, providing a cohesive and unified approach to media items received from others.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2014Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Stanley Peter Demarta, David Jack Ovadia, Peter W. Winer, Jonathan Benjamin Korman, David Ben-Yaakov, Ariel Braunstein, Philip C. Kim, Jonathan Kaplan

Patent number: 9632663Abstract: The disclosure provides techniques for adjusting in-store media according to customer preferences. A customer's presence or purchase is detected at an establishment, and a system at the establishment retrieves information on media preferences of the customer. A media backend then matches the customer preferences to media items (music tracks, images, videos, etc.), and the matching media items are played, displayed, or broadcast at the establishment. If multiple customers are present at the establishment or make orders, the media backend may order media items that match the customers' preferences in first-served order, or based on a ranking of the customers relative to each other or on the content of the media items themselves.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2014Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: FISH SIX RCInventors: Jonathan Kaplan, Stanley Peter Demarta, Carrie Eaton, Jay Amando Domingo Llacuna

Patent number: 9514347Abstract: An authentication server receives a request for a user-identification code from a computing device. The authentication server generates the user-identification code. The authentication server also generates an expiration date associated with the user-identification code. The authentication server transmits the user-identification code and the expiration date to the computing device. The authentication server also validates the user-identification code received from a code scanning system.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2015Date of Patent: December 6, 2016Assignee: FISH SIX RCInventors: Jonathan Kaplan, Jay Amando Domingo Llacuna, Stanley Peter Demarta

Patent number: 9478252Abstract: A computer-implemented method, including detecting an event associated with an image displayed on a display device within a software application, loading a media player into the software application behind the image, where the media player is configured to play a media file associated with the image, and causing a representation of a frame of the media file to be displayed within the media player instead of the image.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2016Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: LinkedIn CorporationInventors: Stanley Peter Demarta, Peter W. Winer, Rajesh Navaneethakrishnan, Jeff Sturgis, David Jack Ovadia
