Publication number: 20240168001Abstract: Multiple subterranean probes at an area of land detect soil conditions and wirelessly transmit soil condition information to a service provider's backend server or to a technician's hand-held wireless device. The server provides multiple user interface screens of a customer application that display soil condition information and irrigation system status. Local micro weather stations may determine and wirelessly transmit weather condition information to the server. An energy emission detecting appliance may be used to acquire information usable to determine fluorescence of grass. The determined fluorescence may be used to train a learning model. The learning trained model may use historical soil condition and fluorescence information to determine a stress level corresponding to the grass. The stress level may be used to modify an irrigation or fertilization schedule.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2023Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventors: Diego A. Borrego, Bradley A.

Patent number: 11861029Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for managing workflows between multiple third-party systems. A content management system stores a workflow that operates over content objects by invoking third-party applications. The content management system invokes these third-party applications, and these applications make modifications to the progression of the workflows as the third-party applications carry-out their specific portions of the workflow. Upon receipt of a workflow variable value from a first third-party application, the content management system determines the semantics of the workflow variable value and caries out a next portion of the workflow. The content management system then invokes a further next portion of the workflow to be carried out by a second third-party application.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2021Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Box Inc.Inventors: Stephen Philip Hiller, Jón Tómas Grétarsson, Seth Morgan Luce Voltz, Ravneet Uberoi

Patent number: 11830350Abstract: Multiple subterranean probes at an area of land detect soil conditions and wirelessly transmit soil condition information to a service provider's backend server or to a technician's hand-held wireless device. The server provides multiple user interface screens of a customer application that display soil condition information and irrigation's system status. Local micro weather stations may determine and wirelessly transmit weather condition information to the server. An installer may use the customer application to determine that received signal strength at a given probe is weak and should thus be relocated, or to determine refined location information corresponding to the probe. Historical soil condition information and artificial intelligence may predict soil conditions where a previously installed probe has been moved or quit working. Probes' housings seal internal electronics, including soil condition sensors, wireless communication modules, processors, and memory.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2021Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: GRAVITY TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Diego A.

Publication number: 20230104908Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for gathering electronic signatures to be applied to collaboration system content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). A collaboration system monitors changes made to the collaboration system content objects during electronic signature processing. A module of the content management system is configured to associate one or more instances of e-signing metadata to one or more of the stored content objects of the content management system. The e-signing metadata indicates whether or not a particular portion of the one or more of the stored content objects has been e-signed by a designated e-signatory. A collaborator who is not one of the designated e-signatories makes a change to one or more of the stored content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). The change is remediated on-the-fly and the e-signing process continues without having to restart the e-signing process from the beginning.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2022Publication date: April 6, 2023Applicant: Box, Inc.Inventors: Seth Morgan Luce VOLTZ, Jón Tómas GRÉTARSSON, Michaël Simon KRENS, Valentin ZBEREA, Rohit BAKSHI, Matthew Phillip HEWES, Daniel KIM, Nachiket DEO, Stephen Philip HILLER, Virender GUPTA
