  • Patent number: 11922527
    Abstract: A system may include a first computing system that may include at least one processor. The at least one processor may receive a request for identification information associated with a user of the first computing device, such that the request is received from a second computing device. The at least one processor may then receive information regarding an entity associated with the second computing device, retrieve data comprising the identification information from a storage component, generate additional data comprising a portion of the identification information based on the information regarding the entity, and send the additional data to the second computing device.

  • Patent number: 11823264
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed for reducing regulatory capital requirements for market participants with financial positions. Participant positions are received in a database for matching the participant positions. Additionally, participant assessed theoretical value by position, capital requirement reduction benefit for closing transactions and penalty for opening transactions by position, compression cost constraints, and zero or more custom constraints specifying acceptable risk profile in a portfolio of trades are received from each participant. A set of trades between a plurality of participants that delivers a capital requirement reduction to each of the plurality of participants, while simultaneously satisfying all participant specified cost and risk constraints is calculated. A time period to review and approve compression portfolios prior to consummating trades is provided.

  • Publication number: 20230296398
    Abstract: Systems and methods for transforming and navigating historical map images are presented. The systems and methods embodiments facilitate providing, searching for, retrieving, transforming, and/or navigating a historical map image vis-à-vis a modern location and/or map. A map interface facilitates automatedly overlaying, annotating, and aligning a historical map image(s) with a modern map, allowing a user to search for a location and see the same in the historical map image, and change a visibility of the overlaid and aligned map images relative to each other. The map interface provides user interactions that facilitate retrieving, viewing, and manipulating records, historical districts, and other pertinent data through interacting with a particular location and/or searched-for individual, such as an ancestor or other person of interest.

  • Patent number: 11760001
    Abstract: A consumable assembly for supplying filament to a 3D printer having two or more receptacles having different geometric configurations, the 3D printer builds parts by material extrusion. The consumable assembly includes a container configured to retain a supply of a first filament, and a first filament guide tube having a length, the first filament guide tube having an inlet end attached to the first container and an outlet end, The consumable assembly includes a key having a geometric configuration allowing the key to be plugged into only one receptacle of the two or more receptacles of the 3D printer, the key comprising a conduit having an entrance and an exit, a coupling portion, and an engagement portion, wherein the entrance to the conduit is coupled to the outlet end of the first filament guide tube to thereby form a closed filament path from the first container to the 3D printer.

  • Publication number: 20220288859
    Abstract: A method of loading filament into a 3D printer that build parts by fused deposition modeling processes includes providing a 3D printer having a receptacle configured for accepting a plug-in connector from a filament supply. The method further includes providing a filament supply having a container configured to retain a supply of a filament, a filament guide tube having a length, an inlet end attached to the container and an outlet end, and a connector at the outlet end of the filament guide tube. The connector has a geometry allowing it to be plugged into the receptacle and comprises a conduit having an entrance for accepting the outlet end of the filament guide tube and an exit for passing the filament into the printer. The method includes causing a signal to be emitted proximate the receptacle such that when the plug-in connector is inserted into the receptable, light shines through the connector to inform the operator of a filament loading status.

  • Publication number: 20210148586
    Abstract: The invention is, in one aspect, a system for heating or cooling a room, including a radiant panel with fluid conduit, which, radiates energy to a room. A heat exchange device exchanges energy between the fluid in the radiant panel and an exchange medium. A vent allows fresh air to enter a room, moved by a fan. The fan propels the air through a chamber for heating or cooling the air, wherein the chamber at least partially comprises the radiant panel.
