Publication number: 20200167482Abstract: Some embodiments provide an electronic device with a novel content redaction engine. The content redaction engine of some embodiments determines whether to redact content for output based on whether a user is biometrically verified. When the content redaction engine receives verification data indicating that the user is biometrically verified, the device displays content without any portion redacted. On the other hand, when the content redaction engine does not receive such verification data, the device displays the content with at least a portion redacted. The electronic device of some embodiments additionally includes a biometric reader and a biometric verification engine. The biometric reader reads a person's uniquely identifying biometric data (e.g., thumbprint/fingerprint, iris scan, voice, etc.). This biometric information is then read by the biometric verification engine for comparison to a stored set of verified user biometric data.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2020Publication date: May 28, 2020Inventors: Byron Bay Han, Craig Alan Marciniak, Andrew Roger Whalley, Matthew Elliott Shepherd

Patent number: 9228743Abstract: The present subject matter provides a gas burner assembly for an appliance. The gas burner assembly includes a burner tube and a shutter slidably mounted to an end portion of the burner tube. The shutter defines a slot with an axially extending portion. A boss is mounted to the tubular burner and is received within the slot of the shutter. The boss is movable within the axially extending portion of the slot in order to permit the shutter to slide along an axial direction on the burner tube. Such features can facilitate access to an orifice of the gas burner assembly.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2013Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Paul Bryan Cadima, Bai Han, Gonzalo Luis Ocano
