Publication number: 20180160337Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a 3G gateway. In a first embodiment, a method is disclosed for a network, comprising: receiving a relocation request message at a home nodeB gateway (HNBGW), the HNBGW coupled to an operator core network, the relocation request message including a target super cell identifier and a user equipment (UE) identifier; sending a second relocation request message from the HNBGW to a coordinating node, the coordinating node having as its identifier the target super cell identifier; querying a lookup table at the coordinating node using the UE identifier to determine a target cell identifier; replacing, in the second relocation request message, the target super cell identifier with the target cell identifier to create a third relocation request message; and sending the third relocation request message to a target cell identified by the target cell identifier.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 5, 2018Publication date: June 7, 2018Inventors: Anoop Gupta, Kartik Shashikant Raval

Publication number: 20180123946Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for dynamically influencing route re-distribution between an exterior gateway protocol (EGP) and an interior gateway protocol (IGP). Some embodiments can dynamically influence which routes are re-distributed into the IGP network for use in cases where traffic destined to that particular remote site is desired to be steered on the desired network/border router. Moreover, some embodiments can dynamically influence route re-distribution from the IGP network to the EGP network for particular destinations so that traffic entering the local site is attracted over a particular network/border router.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2017Publication date: May 3, 2018Applicant: Riverbed Technology, Inc.Inventors: Subramanian Ramachandran, Anoop A.

Patent number: 9961315Abstract: A “Concurrent Projector-Camera” uses an image projection device in combination with one or more cameras to enable various techniques that provide visually flicker-free projection of images or video, while real-time image or video capture is occurring in that same space. The Concurrent Projector-Camera provides this projection in a manner that eliminates video feedback into the real-time image or video capture. More specifically, the Concurrent Projector-Camera dynamically synchronizes a combination of projector lighting (or light-control points) on-state temporal compression in combination with on-state temporal shifting during each image frame projection to open a “capture time slot” for image capture during which no image is being projected. This capture time slot represents a tradeoff between image capture time and decreased brightness of the projected image.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2014Date of Patent: May 1, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Sasa Junuzovic, William Thomas Blank, Steven Bathiche, Anoop Gupta, Andrew D.

Patent number: 9886088Abstract: A physically-modulated friction stylus system and method for physically modulating friction between a styli tip and a surface of a computing device to emulate the “feel” of different types of writing instruments writing on different types of surfaces (such as pen on paper or a paintbrush on canvas). The actual friction between the stylus and the surface is modulated to produce the “feel.” The friction is physically modulated “on the fly” meaning that friction can be modulated while the stylus tip is in contact with the surface and while the stylus is moving. The friction is modulated dependent on a location of the stylus on the surface and the posture and orientation of the stylus. In addition, the friction can be modulated based on a direction and a velocity that the stylus tip is moving across the surface. Audio may also be used to improve the emulation experience.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2012Date of Patent: February 6, 2018Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Paul Henry Dietz, Kenneth Paul Hinckley, Anoop Gupta, Tristan Thomas Trutna

Patent number: 9641423Abstract: A facility allows for automatic delegation of incoming real-time communications based on a delegation scheme. The delegation scheme may be rules-based and may be applied to a single real-time communication channel or multiple communication channels, including both real-time and non-real-time communication channels. The delegate information may include rules that indicate under what circumstances a communication should be rerouted, which delegate the communication should be rerouted to, and whether other associated actions should be taken in connection with the rerouting (or lack thereof). In some cases, the context of the incoming communication may play a role in how or whether a communication is rerouted to a delegate.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2014Date of Patent: May 2, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Anoop Gupta, Gurdeep S.

Publication number: 20170099453Abstract: The interactive and shared surface technique described herein employs hardware that can project on any surface, capture color video of that surface, and get depth information of and above the surface while preventing visual feedback (also known as video feedback, video echo, or visual echo). The technique provides N-way sharing of a surface using video compositing. It also provides for automatic calibration of hardware components, including calibration of any projector, RGB camera, depth camera and any microphones employed by the technique. The technique provides object manipulation with physical, visual, audio, and hover gestures and interaction between digital objects displayed on the surface and physical objects placed on or above the surface. It can capture and scan the surface in a manner that captures or scans exactly what the user sees, which includes both local and remote objects, drawings, annotations, hands, and so forth.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2016Publication date: April 6, 2017Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Sasa Junuzovic, William Thomas Blank, Bruce Arnold Cleary, III, Anoop Gupta, Andrew D.

Publication number: 20170085468Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for path selection. A packet can be transparently intercepted at an intermediary device. Next, the intermediary device may modify one or more bits in the header of the packet. The intermediary device can then forward the packet to the next hop device. In some network configurations, the modifications to the one or more bits in the header of the packet may cause a downstream device to select a path that is different from the path that would have been selected by the downstream device if the one or more bits in the header of the packet had not been modified. A path selection policy can be used to determine whether or not one or more bits in the header of the packet are to be modified.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2016Publication date: March 23, 2017Applicant: Riverbed Technology, Inc.Inventors: Sudeep Modi, Joyu Wu, Anoop A.

Publication number: 20170068387Abstract: An electronic device may include a touch screen electronic display configured to offset and/or shift the contact locations of touch implements and/or displayed content based on one or more calculated parallax values. The parallax values may be associated with the viewing angle of an operator relative to the display of the electronic device. In various embodiments, the parallax value(s) may be calculated using three-dimensional location sensors, an angle of inclination of a touch implement, and/or one or more displayed calibration objects. Parallax values may be utilized to remap contact locations by a touch implement, shift and/or offset displayed content, and/or perform other transformations as described herein. A stereoscopically displayed content may be offset such that a default display plane is coplanar with a touch surface rather than a display surface. Contacts by a finger may be remapped using portions of the contact region and/or a centroid of the contact region.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2016Publication date: March 9, 2017Inventors: Steven Bathiche, Jesse R.
