Publication number: 20230306398Abstract: This disclosure describes an enhanced user interface. For instance, a system may present a user interface indicating a first layout of a physical establishment and receive a first input indicating an object is located at a first geographic location within the physical establishment. The system may receive a recommended location corresponding to a second geographic location within the physical establishment and present the indication of the recommended location for the object on the user interface indicating the first layout. The system may receive image data associated with the physical establishment and determine based at least in part on analyzing the image data that the object is located at the second geographic location within the physical establishment. The system may further display a second layout of the physical establishment, where the second layout includes an indication of the object at the second geographic location within the physical establishment.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: Bruce Bell, Brian Partridge, Ghassan Abu-Ghaida, Amar Dhingra, Alfred Bautista, Kevin Yien

Publication number: 20200210981Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for analyzing sensor data to identify a bottleneck location within a physical establishment, and then providing a recommendation based on the bottleneck location. For instance, a payment service may analyze a layout of a physical establishment using sensor data representing movements of users within the physical establishment. Based on the analysis, the payment service can identify a location within the physical establishment in which movements of the users correspond to one another. For instance, the payment service can identify that the users are located at a similar location within the physical establishment at a given time period. The payment service can then generate and provide a message that indicates a location for moving an object such that users can utilize new routes through the physical establishment.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2019Publication date: July 2, 2020Inventors: Bruce Bell, Brian Partridge, Ghassan Abu-Ghaida, Amar Dhingra, Alfred Bautista, Kevin Yien

Publication number: 20180308186Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, an enhanced user interface that presents indications based on sensor data. For instance, a merchant device may present a user interface to a merchant, where the user interface includes at least a layout of a floor plan of a physical establishment and a graphical element corresponding to an object located within the physical establishment. The merchant device may then present a first indication associated with the object based on determining that a user has been outside of a predetermined distance of the object for a threshold period of time, and present a second indication associated with the object based on determining that the user is within the predetermined distance. In some instances, the merchant device makes the determinations using data received from at least one of an electronic device associated with the table, an electronic device associated with the user, or an image capturing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2017Publication date: October 25, 2018Inventors: Bruce Bell, Brian Partridge, Ghassan Abu-Ghaida, Amar Dhingra, Alfred Bautista, Kevin Yien

Patent number: 9881288Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for utilizing an enhanced user interface to create interactive layouts. For instance, a merchant device may present a user interface to a merchant, where the merchant can use the user interface to create a layout of a physical establishment. The merchant device can then receive inputs indicating respective locations of designated sections and objects within the physical establishment, and update the layout to include graphical elements corresponding to the designated sections and the objects at the respective locations. After creating the layout, the merchant device can send data corresponding to the layout to a payment service. The payment service can analyze the layout to determine locations within the physical establishment for placing designated sections and objects. Additionally, the payment service can send the merchant device messages that indicate the locations.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2017Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: Square, Inc.Inventors: Bruce Bell, Brian Partridge, Ghassan Abu-Ghaida, Alfred Bautista, Amar Dhingra, Kevin Yien
