  • Playback of audio content on multiple devices
    Patent number: 11741979
    Abstract: Audio content may be played on multiple audio-enabled devices via a voice command issued by a user. The voice command is received at a first audio-enabled device and processed, via speech recognition, to identify the audio content to be played and the target devices on which the audio content is to be played. In addition, the voice command can also indicate the time periods associated with the audio playback to provide synchronized playback. Device set information can be used to determine if the first audio-enabled device shares audio functionality with the target devices. If shared functionality is confirmed, one or more commands are sent to the respective target devices to instruct the corresponding playback of the audio content.

  • System and methods for secure storage for data deduplication
    Patent number: 11741051
    Abstract: A system and methods for secure storage for data deduplication comprising a data deconstruction engine, a data reconstruction engine, a library manager, a reference codebook, and a codeword storage which performs simultaneous compaction and deduplication of data sets. A data set may be comprised of one or more sourcepackets which may be optimally deconstructed into a plurality of sourceblocks and wherein each sourceblock may be compared against a reference codebook that contains key-value pairs of a sourceblock and its associated reference code in order to determine if a received sourceblock is a duplicate of data already stored within the reference codebook. Non-duplicate sourceblocks can have a reference code algorithmically created and stored in the reference codebook, thereby ensuring that when a duplicate sourceblock is received, it will not be stored as duplicated data.
