  • Patent number: 11132973
    Abstract: A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for capturing an image rendered by a target application. One general aspect includes a computer-implemented method for capturing an image, the method including: intercepting API calls made by a target application to a graphics display driver, where the API calls made to the graphics display driver by the target application are made using a graphics rendering API library; and using the intercepted API calls to construct a copy of a frame buffer of the image, where the copy of the frame buffer is constructed independent of the graphics display driver. Certain embodiments may include corresponding stand-alone and/or network computer systems, apparatus, and computer programs recorded on one or more computer storage devices, each configured to perform one or more of these actions.

  • Patent number: 10436136
    Abstract: System, method, and apparatus for controlling performance of an engine in response to a set of outputs from a device to an engine control unit. The engine control unit receives profile parameters that are related to outputs of the device. The engine control unit receives a first signal from a device, engages a high idle functionality in response to a first value of the first signal, and engages a high performance functionality in response to a second value of the first signal.

  • Patent number: 7841007
    Abstract: A unique combination of several functions achieves a system by which consumers can validate the actual security status of a website before they decide to trust it, and therefore transact with it. In one example implementation, a security system includes a scanning engine that periodically and thoroughly scans the network and connected components of an on-line service such as a website. The results are stored and perhaps reported back to the service via alerts and the like. The website includes a “bug” which visitors can click on. The visual appearance of the “bug” can be altered (e.g. made invisible) in accordance with a determined level of security for the website. By clicking on the “bug,” the visitors can also be displayed web pages showing the security status of the website. Based on their review of such web pages, visitors can then decide whether to trust the website for further transactions.
