Patent number: 12177524Abstract: A television receiver may present live television programming along with a sports gaming interface that indicates various betting options that are selectable by a television viewer via a remote control. The television receiver may receive a selection of a betting option presented in the sports gaming interface. A request may then be sent to a mobile device of the television viewer. The television receiver may in response to the selection, transmit a bet identifier of the selected betting option and an account identifier to the television service provider system. After a user has funded the bet and completed the transaction via a mobile device, the sports gaming interface may indicate the active bet.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2023Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: DISH Network L.L.C.Inventors: Jesse Montgomery, Christopher Bennett, Shaun Ryan, Kumar Kothari, James Wilde, Christopher Kuhrt

Publication number: 20240298976Abstract: A system measures performance activity of a user using a motion capture device, such as one or more knee sleeves each a plurality of inertial-measurement unit. Captured motion characteristic data is classified against previously captured data and then mapped to particular audio effects, which are then altered in different ways depending on the classification and provided the user. The audio feedback works to improve the user's performance of the activity by changing between negative and positive feedback depending on the user's performance. The system regularly measures the motion capture data, altering audio effects provided to the user, until the user reaches an improvement goal.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2024Publication date: September 12, 2024Applicant: University of MiamiInventors: Christopher Bennett, Robert Gailey, Vibhor Agrawal, Colby Leider

Patent number: 11930723Abstract: An ionic redox transistor comprises a solid channel, a solid reservoir layer, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the channel and the reservoir layer. The channel exhibits a substantially linear current-voltage relationship in a first range of voltages, and a nonlinear current-voltage relationship in a second range of voltages that is greater than the first range of voltages. One or both of the substantially linear current-voltage relationship or the nonlinear current-voltage relationship of the channel is varied by changing the concentration of ions such as oxygen vacancies in the channel. Ion or vacancy transport between the channel and the reservoir layer across the electrolyte layer occurs in response to applying a voltage between the channel and the reservoir layer. Subject to the first range of voltages, the channel can function as a synapse device. Subject to the second range of voltages, the channel can function as a neuron device.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLCInventors: Albert Alec Talin, Elliot James Fuller, Christopher Bennett, Tianyao Xiao, Matthew Marinella, Suhas Kumar
