  • Patent number: 12679344
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for brake detection is provided. The present invention may include determining a first geometric ratio associated with a rear portion of a first vehicle, from a first image of the first vehicle. The present invention may also include determining a second geometric ratio associated with the rear portion of the first vehicle, from a second image of the first vehicle.

  • Patent number: 12543097
    Abstract: Controlling communication handovers of a client computing device among a plurality of wireless networks providing access to a service network includes monitoring, by the client computing device, corresponding program usage information relating to the access to the service network of one or more software programs installed on the client computing device. The client computing device determines criticality indicators of the one or more software programs according to the corresponding program usage information and detects one or more wireless networks available for a current handover from a current wireless network to which the client computing device is currently connected. The client computing device controls the current handover from the current wireless network to a selected wireless network from the plurality of available wireless networks according to the criticality indicators of the one or more software programs currently running on the client computing device.

  • Patent number: 12254795
    Abstract: A device and method for displaying security information to a user is provided. The present invention may include a security device configured to display a security information on a display surface. The security information may include at least one component having two images based on a splitting of its representation that are viewable from corresponding angles of view. The images may be fused into the representation of the at least one component by a visual system of the user looking at them at a reading distance causing the eyes of the user to look at the images from the corresponding angles of view. A corresponding method for displaying security information to a user is also provided.

  • Patent number: 12239565
    Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The methods, computer program products, and systems can include, for instance: detecting, by machine logic, an event in a patient environment, wherein the event includes a body part of a patient moving to a location within a threshold distance of a point of interest, the point of interest being a location in the patient environment which if subject to contact by the body part poses risk to the patient; determining, by machine logic, one or more action to perform to control movement of the body part in response to the detecting the event in the patient environment; performing the one or more action to control movement of the body part in response to the detecting the event in the patient environment.

  • Patent number: 11979411
    Abstract: A solution is proposed for controlling access to computing resources. A corresponding method comprises receiving and verifying an access request for accessing the computing resources by a secondary computing environment (isolated from the computing resources). A main computing environment (isolated from the secondary computing environment) detects an indication of a positive result of the verification of the access request; in response thereto, the main computing environment verifies an integrity condition of the secondary computing environment and then authorizes the secondary computing environment to access the computing resources accordingly. A computer program and a computer program product for performing the method are also proposed. Moreover, a system for implementing the method is proposed.

  • Patent number: 11949672
    Abstract: A solution is proposed for performing authentications. A corresponding method comprises storing a verification string corresponding to applying a one-way function iteratively starting from a secret string. An authentication request is received in association with an authentication string (or more) being generated by applying the one-way function iteratively starting from the secret string for a lower number of times. A result of the authentication request is determined by comparing the verification string with a comparison string being generated by applying the one-way function to the authentication string (or a few times iteratively). Corresponding computer programs and a computer program products for performing the method are also proposed. Moreover, corresponding systems for implementing the method are proposed.
