Patent number: 12271887Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, apparatus, and/or computer program products that can facilitate electronic generation of enhanced, transaction-based QR codes for improved fraud detection are provided. In various aspects, a processor can receive a signal from an electronic beacon of a point-of-sale device, wherein the signal includes information associated with a first merchant. In various instances, in response to receiving the signal from the electronic beacon, the processor can identify a quick response (QR) code from a set of quick response codes that corresponds to the first merchant. In various cases, the processor can render the identified QR code on an electronic display that is scannable by the point-of-sale device, wherein scanning the identified QR code causes the point-of-sale device to transmit the identified QR code and a second merchant identifier to a payment processor.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2020Date of Patent: April 8, 2025Assignee: PayPal, Inc.Inventors: Patrick Babcock, Laura Clark, Oscar Charles Edward Sanderson

Patent number: 12251887Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus of manufacturing a pipe liner for lining the inside of a pipe, for example a water or sewerage pipe requiring repair. The pipe liner is mainly formed of a fabric sleeve, or a plurality of fabric sleeves, and comprises a fluid-proof barrier coating on the inside surface of the pipe liner. The method involves arranging a strip of carrier material comprising a liquid sealant inside the fabric sleeve of the pipe liner and in registration with two opposing side edges of the sheet of fabric, facing an inner barrier coating of the fabric sleeve. The method can advantageously provide such a pipe liner with an inner barrier coating without everting the pipe liner after manufacture. The present invention may provide for avoiding internal cross-welding of pipe liners and a method for testing the integrity of the barrier coating of pipe liners.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2020Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: W.E.Rawson LimitedInventors: David John Blades, Alexander Charles Edward Johnson

Patent number: 12190324Abstract: A machine learning engine may be trained using artificial intelligence techniques and used according to techniques discussed herein. While an initial electronic transaction for a resource may be permitted, a subsequent related transaction to the initial electronic transaction may be analyzed in view of additional electronic information that was not available at the time of the initial transaction. Analysis of the subsequent related transaction, using the machine learning engine, may indicate a new classification related to the resource and/or the acquisition of the resource. Based on this new classification, usage of the resource may be restricted and/or denied, and the initial transaction for the resource may even be canceled retroactively.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2021Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: PAYPAL, INC.Inventors: Chern Jie Lim, Ziyuan Pan, Jessica Tjong, Oscar Charles Edward Sanderson, Yanfei Dong
