Patent number: 12200588Abstract: In some embodiments, holographically displaying items based on item compatibility with user account features may be facilitated. In some embodiments, first and second mobile devices may be detected as being within a proximity threshold of a holographic display device, where the first mobile device is associated with a first user account and the second mobile device is associated with a second user account. Based on the detection, (i) navigation information of the first and second mobile devices, (ii) return value information indicating respective return values associated with candidate items, and (iii) account feature compatibility information may be obtained and inputted into a machine learning model. Despite a first candidate item being incompatible with a second account feature set for the second mobile device, a first holographic representation of the first candidate item may be displayed.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2022Date of Patent: January 14, 2025Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Milan Mehta, Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, Benjamin Polk, Lee Adcock

Publication number: 20240402979Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a preview stream for a user of a video conferencing service. In some aspects, the systems and methods provide for receiving a video stream of at least a portion of a display screen of a user device and determining whether the user device has been designated as a receiving device for receiving a version of the video stream. In response to determining that the user device has not been designated as a receiving device for receiving a version of the video stream, a request is generated to designate the user device as a receiving device in addition to being a presenting device. Based on images of the video stream, a preview stream (e.g., of at least a portion of the display screen) is generated and transmitted for display at the user device.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2024Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Alexander Link, Geeta Shyamala, Benjamin Polk, Lee Adcock

Publication number: 20240214230Abstract: Methods and systems disclosed herein describe generating virtual backgrounds for video communications. A virtual background generator may monitor a user's calendar and/or inbox for meetings. The virtual background generator may analyze the context of calendar invites and/or scheduled meetings to generate one or more virtual backgrounds for a video conference. A first background may be displayed for the video conference. Additionally, the virtual background generator may update the virtual background based on an analysis of one or more topics being discussed during the video conference. Based on the analysis of the one or more topics being discussed, the virtual background generator may generate a second virtual background to replace the first virtual background.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 11, 2024Publication date: June 27, 2024Inventors: Sarvani Kare, Daniel Tran, Lee Adcock, Geeta Shyamala, Benjamin Polk

Publication number: 20240053820Abstract: In some embodiments, holographic presentations despite using holographic displays having limited viewing angles may be facilitated. In some embodiments, a user may be detected via one or more sensors associated with a holographic display system, where the holographic display system being configured with a first viewing angle. Based on the detection of the user, a direction of the user may be determined. The first viewing angle of the holographic display system may also be determined. For example, the holographic display system may determine a current first viewing angle. Based on the direction of the user, the first viewing angle may be adjusted such that the user becomes within the adjusted first viewing angle of the holographic display system.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2022Publication date: February 15, 2024Applicant: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Lee ADCOCK, Gurpreet Singh SANDHU, Milan MEHTA, Benjamin POLK

Publication number: 20240007293Abstract: Systems and methods described herein may generate a temporary location-associated cryptographic identification code (which can be used to uniquely identify the user) based on detection of the user at the associated location. As an example, such systems and methods allow for the user to be identified (e.g., as part of an authentication process) when the user visits a location without having to share personally identifiable information with any other users or computing systems at the location. Additionally, or alternatively, such systems and methods enable the practical use of shorter cryptographic identification codes as a primary identifier (or sole identifier) at the location for retrieving data related to the user (e.g., by avoiding or mitigating collision or security risks typically associated with short identifiers).Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2022Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Nahid FARHADY GHALATY, Lee ADCOCK, Benjamin POLK
