  • Patent number: 12362934
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for onboarding digital content to a platform designed specifically for seamless creation and user-friendly management of non-fungible tokens. The invention allows for users with zero knowledge of decentralized protocols to leverage the benefits of such technologies by providing a system for uploading existing digital content, automating the creation of one or more non-fungible tokens, managing permissioned access to the non-fungible tokens, and facilitating the ownership transfer of the non-fungible tokens.

  • Patent number: 12292951
    Abstract: A heightened level of security is provided in a computing platform by monitoring usage of applications and/or services residing on or accessible to a computing platform to determine abnormal usage patterns. In response to determining an abnormal pattern of usage, the user is required to provide biometric data, such as voice data, facial feature data, fingerprint data or the like, as a means of authenticating the user. The abnormal pattern of usage may be determined dynamically by comparing current usage patterns to known user baseline usage patterns. Alternatively, the abnormal pattern of usage is predefined, such as the resetting of passwords in a predefined number of applications and/or services over a predefined period of time.

  • Patent number: 12244892
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for analyzing using artificial intelligence engines depicted in audio visual content. The system is configured for determining that a user has accessed a first audio visual content on an audio visual content providing platform, performing a frame-by-frame analysis to determine one or more resources depicted in the first audio visual content, identifying one or more third party systems associated with the one or more resources, crawling the one or more third party systems associated with the one or more resources, extracting resource information associated with the one or more resources from the one or more third party systems based on crawling the one or more third party systems, and embedding the resource information associated with the one or more resources in the first audio visual content.

  • Publication number: 20250039168
    Abstract: Dynamic security queries are generated based on historical records for purposes of knowledge-based authentication. The dynamic nature of the queries and answers means that once generated, the queries and the answers are exclusively stored in temporary memory (i.e., Random Access Memory (RAM) or the like). As such, the queries and answers are permanently erased from RAM after they have been presented to the user or, at a maximum, are erased from RAM once the computing session is terminated. Moreover, since the queries/answers are determined from dynamic user-specific datasets compiled at the time of authentication, the present invention is able to generate knowledge-based queries that are not capable of identification by other parties from any level of personal record searching.

  • Patent number: 12124875
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for facilitating creation, verification, and management of digital resources. The system is configured for receiving a digital content for upload to a distributed register from a user, via a user interface, receiving one or more instructions associated with distribution of the digital content from the user, via the user interface, creating one or more digital resources from the digital content via the user interface based on the one or more instructions received from the user, and storing the one or more digital resources on the distributed register.

  • Patent number: 12095918
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for generation of dynamic authentication tokens for use in system-to-system transaction authorization and user identity verification. The system utilizes user biometric data to generate unique authentication tokens which are customized to a particular user. Furthermore, the system rotates not only the encryption algorithms used, but also the datasets being encrypted in order to provide a high level of security such that even if a user's biometric data was compromised, it would be highly unlikely that an attacker would be able to recreate the authentication token stemming from said biometric data at any given point in time. The system eliminates the need for user-provided authentication credentials and provides a more secure and more efficient method of authenticating data exchange between multiple systems or applications.

  • Publication number: 20240244302
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for embedding extractable metadata elements within a channel-agnostic layer of audio-visual content. The system is configured for receiving a content file, determining products displayed in the content file, and delivering resource metadata related to the products displayed in the content file in an interactive and secure manner. The invention may further include various ways in which to automatically display resource metadata in an intuitive manner in conjunction with streaming the content file to a user device via one or more platforms or channels.

  • Patent number: 11966779
    Abstract: A system is provided for transfer of digital resources using an integrated resource platform. In particular, the system may comprise a networked platform that may be accessible by one or more users to access digital resources (e.g., non-fungible tokens stored on a distributed register). The platform may further display a graphical user interface through which the user may take various actions with respect to such digital resources, including the ability to view metadata associated with the resources or to transfer the resources. In this regard, the platform may integrate multiple different types of distributed registers and/or legacy computing systems such that the user may access the digital resources along with the functions associated therewith.

  • Publication number: 20230364452
    Abstract: A fall protection apparatus is disclosed herein. The fall protection apparatus can include a sensing device, an alert generating device, a processing circuit communicably coupled to the sensing device and the alert generating device, and a memory communicably coupled to the processing circuit. The memory can store a fall-detection intelligence algorithm that, when executed by the processing circuit, causes the processing circuit to receive a signal from the sensing device, determine a parameter associated with a potential fall based on the signal, determine the parameter exceeds a user-defined threshold based on the parameter, and cause the alert generating device to generate an alert based on the determination that the parameter exceeds the user-defined threshold.
