Patent number: 11445025Abstract: Software applications are used for controlling the optical state of one or more optically switchable windows or other optical products installed in a structure such as building. The applications permit users to send and/or receive data and/or commands for controlling the switchable optical products. In some embodiments, the applications provide an interface with a window network controller, which directly or indirectly controls windows in a structure. Relevant processing involving the application may include user authentication, commissioning, adaptive control, and decisions on whether to permit an action or change requested by a user. In some embodiments, the application allows users to directly control the tint state of one or more tintable windows. In some embodiments, the application allows users to change a rule or property associated with controlling a switchable optical product.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2019Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: View, Inc.Inventors: Dhairya Shrivastava, Todd Marques, Stephen C.

Publication number: 20080144549Abstract: A Wireless Proximity-Based Information System that enables users to gather and store information about objects in their immediate surroundings. The system consists of three components: (i) an Information Server, (ii) a User Interface Client, and (iii) an Administrative Toolkit. The Information Server is packaged as a self-contained, headless electronic device that can be embedded in, attached to, or placed nearby the object it describes. The User Interface Client resides on a mobile phone, PDA, or other handheld device. It provides the means to communicate real time over-the-air with all Information Servers within range. The Administrative Toolkit is a desktop application for controlling the Information Server. It provides capabilities to (i) create, revise, and download information content, (ii) regulate access to content, (iii) upload and analyze usage and performance statistics, and (iv) manage the distribution of Information Server patches and upgrades.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2006Publication date: June 19, 2008Inventor: Todd Marques
