Patent number: 11443336Abstract: A facility is described that causes a map to be displayed to each of a number of users. From each of these users, the facility receives input in connection with the displayed map that selects a geographic location. The facility identifies one of the users who selected a geographic location closest to a target geographic location and causes a prize to be awarded to the identified user.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2019Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: BaseMap, Inc.Inventors: Chris Barrow, Jeffrey Balch

Publication number: 20210088353Abstract: A facility creates a geographic marker describing a geographic location. The facility receives user input specifying the creation of a geographic marker at a distinguished date and time. The facility responds to the user input by determining a mobile device's geographic location at the distinguished date and time. The facility then stores its geographic location and the distinguished date and time as a geographic marker.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2020Publication date: March 25, 2021Inventors: Chris Barrow, Jeffrey Balch

Patent number: 10671648Abstract: A method is provided that includes storing a plurality of data items in a data aggregation system. Each of the plurality of data items is associated with one or more location identifiers indicating a particular point on the earth. The method further includes receiving, by at least one processor, a query indicating a geographic location. Data items having associated location identifiers matching the received geographic location are retrieved from the data aggregation system. The method further includes outputting the retrieved data items.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2016Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: Eagle View Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Chris Barrow, Chris Pershing, David Kinsman

Patent number: 8788542Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for customizing aspects of a metadata-driven software application. In particular, embodiments of the present invention provide (1) a self-contained metadata engine for generating customized metadata documents from base metadata documents and customizations; (2) a customization syntax for defining customizations; (3) a customization creation/update component for creating and updating customizations; (4) a customization restriction mechanism for restricting the creation of new customizations by specific users or groups of users; and (5) memory and caching optimizations for optimizing the storage and lookup of customized metadata documents.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2008Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventor: Chris Barrow

Patent number: 8776633Abstract: A shifter for use with a continuously variable transmission includes a grip portion and a hub portion. Specifically, the shifter is designed for use on a bicycle, but could also be used with any light vehicle. The grip portion is characterized by a rotatable adjuster that is coupled to a cable. The cable is also coupled to a hub portion. As the adjuster is rotated, the cable is pulled, in turn rotating a pulley assembly in the hub portion. As the pulley assembly is rotated, it advances a rod within a continuously variable transmission. The rod adjusts the power adjusters as described above. The grip portion is also unique in its display of information to the rider. The grip portion includes a display showing the ratio of input to output. The display also includes a filament that curves as the ration is adjusted. A high ratio renders the filament flat while the filament takes on a steep curve as the ratio is adjusted to make riding up hills easier.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2010Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: Fallbrook Intellectual Property Company LLCInventors: Oronde Armstrong, Chris Barrow, Paul Elhardt, Henry Mack, Stephen Miggels, Stephen Tsortsoros
