Patent number: 10033946Abstract: Disclosed is a device for up-conversion of Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) images into visible images. The device comprises a sub micrometer thickness structure that is composed of several sub-layers, each having a typical thickness of tens to hundreds of nanometers. The device is composed of two main sections one on top of the other: (a) a highly efficient SWIR absorption thin layer and (b) a highly efficient organic light emitted diode (OLED). The generated visible image is emitted from the OLED through a top transparent cathode, which is deposited on the OLED.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2016Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: B.G.

Patent number: 9875238Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing a language translation setting for a telephony communication determine whether first and second parties to the telephony communication are likely to speak different languages. If so, one or both parties are queried to determine if they would like a language translation to be performed. One or both parties' response to that query is used to establish a language translation setting for the telephony communication. If one or both parties request a translation, some form of real-time translation may then be provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2016Date of Patent: January 23, 2018Assignee: VONAGE AMERICA INC.Inventors: Yuval Golan, Gil Osher

Publication number: 20170005954Abstract: Systems and methods for aiding communication terminal users in the management of incoming call and/or message arrival notifications. In an embodiment, a method comprises receiving a notification associated with an invitation to establish a communication session between a communication originator and an intended recipient or to the availability, for retrieval and/or access, of a voice, text, or e-mail message. The notification is processed based on a passively derived classification or score assigned to the communication originator. A passively derived classification or score is one which does not depend upon the recipient of any prior communication to identify and/or characterize the originator of the prior communication. In some embodiments, delivery of a message and/or an invitation to communicate is automatically blocked or accepted based on the classification. In other embodiments, an enhanced notification is generated and forwarded to a communication terminal associated with the intended recipient.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2015Publication date: January 5, 2017Inventors: Natan Shaltiel, Matthew Dennis Krokosz, Yuval Golan
