Patent number: 11861528Abstract: Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for an infringement detection system that obtains images of products and images of proprietary objects, and analyzes the images to make coarse matches. An image comparison engine may transform or augment the data for comparison for coarse and refined matching. The outputs of the image comparison engine are initial infringement predictions that are further evaluated using refined matching including shape fitting. The detection system outputs refined infringement predictions, which may be optionally confirmed as counterfeit based on various considerations (e.g., known inauthentic products, suspect sales history, text and image anomalies, etc.). Upon a refined match or confirmation, the detection system records potential infringements and associated metadata into a database to initiate an optional response action.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2019Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Inventors: Barry Brager, Craig Meyer

Patent number: 8635164Abstract: A system for providing a wide range of telecommunications initiated data fulfillment services in which a multi-function code, such as “#” (star, pound), input into an originating telecommunications device, such as a wireless telephone, triggers the treatment of the input sequence as a multi-function code service request rather than a dialed directory number. The multi-function code is followed by an input data string to complete the multi-function code service request, which the user typically enters into the telecommunications device just like a conventional telephone call, except that the input string begins with the multi-function code. The telecommunications system recognizes the multi-function code as a trigger, and in response takes one or more date fulfillment actions, such delivering a response message to the initiating telecommunications device containing one or more Internet links to webpages associated with the dialed input data string.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2012Date of Patent: January 21, 2014Assignee: Starpound Corporation, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Rosenhaft, Barry Brager

Publication number: 20130208879Abstract: A system for providing a wide range of telecommunications initiated data fulfillment services in which a multi-function code, such as “*#” (star, pound), input into an originating telecommunications device, such as a wireless telephone, triggers the treatment of the input sequence as a multi-function code service request rather than a dialed directory number. The multi-function code is followed by an input data string to complete the multi-function code service request, which the user typically enters into the telecommunications device just like a conventional telephone call, except that the input string begins with the multi-function code. The telecommunications system recognizes the multi-function code as a trigger, and in response takes one or more date fulfillment actions. For example, *# dialing strings may be used to implement abbreviated dialing (vanity codes) as well as telephone call prioritizing, filtering, screening and routing (one number services).Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2013Publication date: August 15, 2013Applicant: Starpound Corporation, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Rosenhaft, Barry Brager

Patent number: 8296241Abstract: A system for providing text messages in response to telephone initiated service requests that includes a multi-function code, such as “*#” (star, pound), followed by an item code associated with a particular text message. Different item codes correspond to different text messages. The telecommunications switch recognizes the multi-function code as a trigger and responds by sending a data message containing the item code and identification information pertaining to the initiating telephone device to a data fulfillment center, which responds to the data message by sending the text message associated with the item code to the initiating telephone device over a wireless data network. The data fulfillment center may also send an Internet link to the initiating telephone device. A charge for this service may be automatically charged to an account associated with the originating telecommunications device.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2011Date of Patent: October 23, 2012Assignee: Starpound CorporationInventors: Matthew Rosenhaft, Barry Brager

Publication number: 20120077474Abstract: A system for providing text messages in response to telephone initiated service requests that includes a multi-function code, such as “V” (star, pound), followed by an item code associated with a particular text message. Different item codes correspond to different text messages. The telecommunications switch recognizes the multi-function code as a trigger and responds by sending a data message containing the item code and identification information pertaining to the initiating telephone device to a data fulfillment center, which responds to the data message by sending the text message associated with the item code to the initiating telephone device over a wireless data network. The data fulfillment center may also send an Internet link to the initiating telephone device.

Patent number: 8073784Abstract: A system for providing a wide range of telecommunications initiated data fulfillment services in which a multi-function code, such as “*#” (star, pound), input into an originating telecommunications device, such as a conventional land-line or wireless telephone, triggers the treatment of the input sequence as a multi-function code service request rather than a dialed directory number. The multi-function code is followed by an input data string to complete the multi-function code service request, which the user typically enters into the telecommunications device just like a conventional telephone call, except that the input string begins with the multi-function code.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2011Date of Patent: December 6, 2011Assignee: Starpound CorporationInventors: Matthew Rosenhaft, Barry Brager
