Patent number: 12160792Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, computer readable media, and other various embodiments are described for location management processes in wearable electronic devices. One embodiment involves pairing a client device with a wearable device, capturing a first client location fix at a first time using the first application and location circuitry of the client device. The client device then receives content from the wearable device, where the content is associated with a content capture time and location state data. The client device then updates a location based on the available data to reconcile the different sets of location data. In some embodiments, additional sensor data, such as data from an accelerometer, is used is used to determine which location data is more accurate for certain content.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2023Date of Patent: December 3, 2024Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Yu Jiang Tham, John James Robertson, Antoine Ménard, Tamer El Calamawy

Patent number: 11968460Abstract: A system including image capture eyewear, a processor, and a memory. The image capture eyewear includes a support structure, a selector connected to the support structure, a display system (e.g., LEDs or a display) connected to the support structure to distinctly display assignable recipient markers, and a camera connected to the support structure to capture an image of a scene. The processor executes programming in the memory to assign recipients to the assignable recipient markers, receive a captured image of the scene, receive an indicator associated with the assignable recipient markers distinctly displayed at the time the image of the scene was captured, and transmit the captured image to the recipient assigned to the distinctly displayed assignable recipient markers.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Yu Jiang Tham, Mitchell Bechtold, Antoine Ménard

Patent number: 11636112Abstract: Cached data is updated by a computing machine coupled to a primary database maintaining original data and to a cache maintaining data corresponding to the data in the primary database. In response to receiving a first database query relating to a first data, the computing machine determines whether to process the first database query by utilizing the cache or based on the primary database. In response to concluding processing the first database query, the computing machine determines whether to update the first data in the cache, and based on the result of the determining, updates the first data in the cache based on original first data in the primary database.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2018Date of Patent: April 25, 2023Assignee: AMADEUS S.A.S.Inventors: Laure Canis, Sarah Muguerza, Victor Alonso, Celine Pradin, Antoine Menard, Jean-Baptiste Rey, Geoffrey Claude
