Patent number: 11836337Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer program product provide automated static or dynamic format selection of screen shot capture responsive to display size. An application, executed by a processor of the electronic device, presents, via a display, at least a portion of an electronic page. In response to receiving an input, via at least one input device of the electronic device, to capture a screen shot of the display, a controller of the electronic device determines a number of screens required to present an entirety of the electronic page. In response to the number of screens being equal to or less than a first threshold number of screens, the controller generates a static screen shot image of the electronic page. In response to the number of screens being greater, the controller generates a dynamic screen shot image that automatically scrolls or page flips through the entirety of the electronic page.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2023Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: Motorola Mobility LLCInventors: Amit Kumar Agrawal, Meng-Ru Yu, Mahadevan Ayalur

Patent number: 11824972Abstract: A system and process for onboarding client devices to a key management server. In operation, a device generates an asymmetric key pair including a public key and a private key. The device obtains an access token from an identity management server after successfully authenticating with the identity management server. The device transmits a request including the access token and the public key to the key management server to onboard the client device. The device receives a response including encrypted bootstrap information from the key management server. The bootstrap information included in the response is encrypted using the public key of the asymmetric key pair. The device decrypts the encrypted bootstrap information using the private key of the asymmetric key pair to obtain the bootstrap information and then uses the bootstrap information for encrypting communications transmitted to the key management server or for decrypting communications received from the key management server.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2021Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventors: Madhusudan Pai, Rajendra Anthony, Bharatram Setti, Ramu Kandula
