Patent number: 11694462Abstract: An image processing system or electronic device may implement processing circuitry. The processing circuitry may receive an image, such as financial document image. The processing circuitry may determine a character count for the financial document image or particular portions of the financial document image without recognizing any particular character in the financial document image. In that regard, the processing circuitry may determine a top left score for pixels in the financial document, the top left score indicating or representing a likelihood that a particular pixel corresponds to a top left corner of a text character. The processing circuitry may also determine top right score for image pixels. Then, the processing circuitry may identify one or more text chunks using the top left and top rights scores for pixels in the financial document image. The processing circuitry may determine a character count for the identified text chunks.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2022Date of Patent: July 4, 2023Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventor: Adam S. Newman

Patent number: 11295377Abstract: The AUTOMATIC REMOTE DEPOSIT IMAGE PREPARATION APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (hereinafter “MultiCrop”) transforms uploaded check images and check deposit information inputs via MultiCrop components image into deposit confirmation outputs. For example, in one embodiment, a user may employ a personal computer connected to a web camera, and/or a smartphone with a built-in camera to initiate the remote deposit by holding a check in front of the camera, and the MultiCrop may capture images of the check and send them to a financial institution for deposit processing.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2019Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION (USAA)Inventors: Seth E. Ethington, Aaron Kay, Adam S. Newman, Lawrence Z. Lu, Dylan Patterson
