  • Patent number: 11936547
    Abstract: At times, it may be desirable to determine that a client system is, or to determine the number of client systems that are, presenting particular dynamic content when an auditable event occurs in the dynamic content. One manner of making the determination may include accessing presentation time information that indicates the time(s) at which one or more client systems present particular dynamic content and accessing event time information indicating the time(s) at which one or more auditable events occur in the dynamic particular content. Based on the presentation time information and the event time information, it may be possible to determine that a client system is, or to determine the number of client systems that are, presenting particular dynamic content when an auditable event occurs in the dynamic content.

  • Patent number: 11935111
    Abstract: A consumer is identified at a transaction terminal. A natural-language voice chatbot is initiated for the transaction. The chatbot is configured with store information for a store associated with the terminal and, optionally, with preferences registered to the consumer. A natural language voice dialogue using, at least the store information, is initiated between the chatbot and the consumer while the consumer is at the terminal and during the transaction. The consumer may order store items from the store and pay for the items through the dialogue. In an embodiment, the items ordered are delivered to the terminal where the consumer is located.

  • Patent number: 11929421
    Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for facilitating the creation of a new and potentially thinner form of dielectric. Alternatively, for a given capacitance, a thicker layer can be created with lower risk of leakage. The present disclosure will enable the creation of physically smaller electronic components. Isotope-Modified Hafnium Dielectric is used to create a dielectric layer with a greater range of dielectric coefficients, which may enable the creation of smaller and/or more reliable electronic components.

  • Publication number: 20240077282
    Abstract: An anti-cant indicator assembly, components thereof, and associated methods. The anti-cant indicator assembly indicates the orientation of a weapon with respect to vertical. The anti-cant indicator assembly includes a mount configured to mount to the weapon, a level including a vial containing a bubble and a pivot connection connecting the level to the mount. The pivot connection is configured to permit movement of the level with respect to the mount about the pivot connection between an operational position in which the bubble can be referenced by the user for indicating orientation of the weapon with respect to vertical, and a stowed position different from the operational position. The pivot connection can include a retainer configured to releasably retain the level in at least one of the operational position or the stowed position. The level can be selectively movable with respect to the mount to calibrate the anti-cant indicator.

  • Publication number: 20240078129
    Abstract: An example non-transitory machine-readable medium includes instructions that cause a processor of a computing device to create a first virtual machine using a hypervisor, execute a trusted basic input/output system (BIOS) in the first virtual machine, create a second virtual machine using the hypervisor, and execute an untrusted BIOS component in the second virtual machine. The first virtual machine is executed with a greater privilege to access a resource of the computing device than the second virtual machine.

  • Publication number: 20240075760
    Abstract: A crafting apparatus (10) includes a working portion (22) and a base portion (20). The working portion (22) includes a lower surface (32) and an upper surface (34). The upper surface (34) defines a working three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system (X-Y-Z). The base portion (20) includes a lower surface (24) and an upper surface (26). The lower surface (32) of the working portion (22) is disposed adjacent to the upper surface (26) of the base portion (20). The lower surface (24) defines a non-working three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system (XS-YS-ZS). The upper surface (34) of the working portion (22) extends relative to the lower surface (24) of the base portion (20) at an angle (?22) for angularly-offsetting the working three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system (X-Y-Z) from the non-working three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system (XS-YS-ZS). Methods (200, 300) are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11922403
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media disclosed herein relate to reducing computation and computing resources for certain blockchain related transactions. Specifically, software algorithms and architecture allow some transactions to avoid the need for recordation on a blockchain, which can be computationally expensive both for a requesting device and for various nodes on the blockchain. Thus, a computer system may receive indications of incoming transactions transferring digital assets to particular user accounts, and in response to requests from user accounts, the computer system facilitates one or more internal transactions between those accounts. In response to a request from a particular internal user account, the computer system may perform an outgoing transaction transferring one or more digital assets to an external user account from one or more internal user accounts.

  • Publication number: 20240062571
    Abstract: Particular embodiments receive a plurality of values associated with a document. One or more keywords associated with the document are also received. A first score is generated for each value, of the plurality of values. The generation of the first score excluding sending, over a computer network, a first request to one or more remote computing devices to generate the first score. Based at least in part on the generating of the first score, each value, of the plurality of values is ranked. The ranking of each value excluding sending, over the computer network, a second request to the one or more remote computing devices to rank each value. Based on the ranking, at least one value, of the plurality of values, is selected. The selecting being indicative that the at least one value is a candidate to be a constituent of the one or more keywords. Based on the ranking, an indicator indicating that the at least one value is the candidate to be the constituent of the one or more keywords is presented.

  • Publication number: 20240063009
    Abstract: The invention generally relates to two-dimensional mass spectrometry using ion micropacket detection. In certain aspects, the invention provides systems including a mass spectrometer having an ion trap and one or more detectors. The system includes a central processing unit (CPU), and storage coupled to the CPU for storing instructions that when executed by the CPU cause the system to: apply one or more scan functions to the ion trap that excite a precursor ion and eject a product ion from the ion trap; and determine a secular frequency of the product ion by detecting micropackets of the product ion as the micropackets are ejected from the ion trap.
