Publication number: 20240146739Abstract: This disclosure relates to generating location event measurements. In one aspect, a method includes presenting, by a client device, a digital component comprising geofence data that defines one or more physical locations corresponding to the digital component. In response to presenting the digital component, a trusted program of the client device stores, in a presentation event data structure, a presentation event data element specifying the geofence data. The trusted program detects, based on location information indicating a current location of the client device and the geofence data that the client device is within one of the one or more physical locations. In response to detecting that the client device is within one of the one or more physical locations, an event report is transmitted to a reporting system for the digital component. The event report indicates that a location event for the digital component has occurred.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Alex Daniel Jacobson, Gang Wang

Publication number: 20240110271Abstract: Metal(s) (including various alloys, such as INCONEL(R) superalloys) are characterized by having carbon disposed within the metal lattice structure thereof. The carbon is primarily, or entirely, present at interstitial sites of the metal lattice, and may be present in amounts ranging from about 1.5 wt % to about 90 wt %. Carbon may be present in the form of graphene, which may be characterized as one or more coherent, planar layers of graphene. The carbon, moreover, forms non-polar covalent bonds with both metal atoms of the lattice and other carbon atoms present in the lattice. This facilitates substantially homogeneous dispersal of the carbon throughout the resultant material, conveying unique and advantageous properties such as strength-to-weight ratio, density, mechanical toughness, sheer strength, flex strength, hardness, anti-corrosiveness, electrical and/or thermal conductivity, etc. as described herein. In some approaches, the composition of matter may be powderized, or the powder may be pelletized.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: Lyten, Inc.Inventors: Michael Stowell, Lauren Sienko, Daniel Jacobson

Publication number: 20240089119Abstract: This disclosure relates to generating telecommunication network measurements. In one aspect, a method includes presenting, by a client device, a digital component that, when interacted with, initiates a call by the client device to a phone number specified by the digital component. A trusted program stores, in a presentation event data structure, a presentation event data element specifying the phone number and resource locator for a reporting system to which reports for the digital component are sent. The trusted program detects a phone call by the client device to a given phone number. The given phone number is compared to one or more presentation event data elements stored in the presentation event data structure. A determination is made that the given phone number matches the phone number specified by the digital component. In response, an event report is transmitted to the reporting system.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Gang Wang, Alex Daniel Jacobson
