Patent number: 12101527Abstract: Methods and systems for selecting and delivering content are provided. More particularly, content can be delivered to an output device from a user device through a device adaptor, such as an over-the-top (OTT) device. The OTT device or devices available to the user device are determined by a communication server. In particular, the OTT device or devices available to the user device are limited to those OTT devices associated with an output device in the user's room, or that the user is otherwise authorized to access.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2023Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: SONIFI SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventors: Derin Michael Zerr, Joel Walter Zdepski, Shaun Eugene Marko, Chad J. Schroeder, Andy Loren Anderson, Christopher Paul Wollmann

Publication number: 20200329278Abstract: Systems and methods for pairing user devices to selected output devices are provided. Pairing can include providing information identifying a user device to a system authority, such as a remote communication interface server. In response to verifying that a user associated with the identified user device is authorized to use a selected output device, the information identifying the user device and a local player connected to the selected output device is provided to a local controller or server. The local controller then creates and maintains an association between the user device and the local player, allowing a user of the user device to cast content to an output device associated with the paired local player.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2020Publication date: October 15, 2020Applicant: SONIFI Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Derin M.

Publication number: 20160323433Abstract: Methods and systems for enabling a function based on identifying information for a mobile device are provided. The identifying information can include location information, and is provided from a communication device or identification tag. The mobile device provides the identifying information to a system authority. The mobile device can also provide additional identifying information to the system authority. The system authority can then authorize a command and control or a content delivery operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2016Publication date: November 3, 2016Inventors: Andy Loren Anderson, Sridhar Guthula, Derin M. Zerr, Joel Walter Zdepski

Publication number: 20160285877Abstract: Methods and systems for enabling a function based on location information for a mobile device are provided. The location information is provided from a sensor device. The sensor device can have a known location, and can provide information identifying the mobile device to a system authority that enables the function. The mobile device can also provide additional identifying information to the system authority. Different communication channels established partially or entirely over different communication networks can be used to deliver the different identifiers.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2016Publication date: September 29, 2016Inventors: Andy Loren Anderson, Sridhar Guthula, Derin M.
