Patent number: 10157513Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatus, and computer program products are provided for identifying assets (e.g., mobile assets and/or personnel assets). A mobile asset is uniquely identified from RFID tags. Additionally, mobile assets and personnel assets are identified from captured image data. After identification, it can be determined whether the asset (e.g., mobile asset and/or personnel asset) is authorized for one or more activities and a corresponding perceivable indication can be generated.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2018Date of Patent: December 18, 2018Assignee: United Parcel Service of America, Inc.Inventors: Carl M. Skonberg, Ernest J. Pyzocha, Jr., Andrew J. Hill, III, Bobby J. McFarland

Patent number: 9767310Abstract: Systems and methods for secure data exchange and data tampering prevention. A secure data system receives electronic data files from data entities and stores the files in a first storage. Each file includes data values collected by a respective data entity over a predefined time period. A benchmark system determines plural randomized snapshot times corresponding to the predefined time period. A data mapping is created between the first storage and plural second storage, based on the snapshot times and the number of files. Data values samples in each file are selectively transferred from the first storage to the plural second storage according to the data mapping. Each second storage stores samples synthesized from among the data entities associated with a single respective snapshot time. A benchmark data value is determined based on the synthetized samples stored in the plural second storage associated with the snapshot times.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2016Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Assignee: Intercontinental Exchange Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Matthew A. Glenville, Finbarr Hutcheson, Stelios E. Tselikas, Antonios Gkoulousis, Andrew J. Hill

Patent number: 8692691Abstract: An infrared laser landing marker system provides a capability to mark a boundary line of varying lengths with near infrared lasers, e.g., of the order 8xx nm. This system can be either directly operated or remotely operated via satellite communications and is compatible with currently fielded night vision goggles. Two modules, placed at either end of boundary, self align to each other and then proceed to mark a boundary edge of a landing zone with an infrared laser line.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2012Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: The United States of America as Represented by the Secretary of the ArmyInventors: Yau L. Fung, Andrew J. Hill, Paul W. Bachelder, Robert B. Mayer, Blaine C. Froeschl, Alden K. Lum, Miguel P. Snyder, Kim W. D. Larsen
