  • Patent number: 11204982
    Abstract: A software licensing verification and installation system includes a client computing system in signal communication with a service provider computing system. The client computing system is configured to generate a request for at least one software product. The service provider computing system is configured to determine hardware information and software information of the client computing system, to receive a client license provided by the client computing system corresponding to the at least one software product, and to verify the client license based on the hardware information and software information.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10625913
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a tampering/opening evidence mechanism to avoid the adulteration and reuse of packages, which corresponds to a device having a dual lid with a series of mechanisms that, when the user turns the lid to open the product, make the side surface thereof to be stained by an ink located therein. Thus, the mechanism of the invention stains with a permanent/indelible ink the inside of the dual lid, when it is rotated by the user for the first opening of the container, and wherein said movement allows both surface to be stained due to an element, such as a foam, being charged with ink which stains both surfaces with the rotation of the lid.

  • Patent number: 10139929
    Abstract: A totem device accepts inputs from an end user and communicates the inputs to an information handling system through a capacitive mat by moving an interactive portion of the totem relative to a main portion. In one embodiment, the capacitive mat integrates a display that presents input images proximate the totem, such as a volume gauge or mouse keys. Interactive portions include compressible materials that alter surface area pressed against a capacitive mat when pressed upon and plungers that move independent of a main body to press. In one embodiment, a camera captures images of the totem to enhance the distinguishing of inputs.

  • Patent number: 9921644
    Abstract: A non-linear user interface display presented at a desktop conforms to dimensions of a user detected by a depth camera, such as by presenting the user interface along an arc having a radius determined from a reach of the user detected by the depth camera. Windows presented in the arc vary in size based upon their position relative to a user focus, such as by detecting a user gaze direction or by comparing position to a central display mat. User gestures control presentation of visual images in the arc, such rotating visual image windows in a circular manner around the arc radius and to different orientations in the arc relative to the user.

    Abstract: A totem device accepts inputs from an end user and communicates the inputs to an information handling system through a capacitive mat by moving an interactive portion of the totem relative to a main portion. In one embodiment, the capacitive mat integrates a display that presents input images proximate the totem, such as a volume gauge or mouse keys. Interactive portions include compressible materials that alter surface area pressed against a capacitive mat when pressed upon and plungers that move independent of a main body to press. In one embodiment, a camera captures images of the totem to enhance the distinguishing of inputs.

  • Patent number: 9615236
    Abstract: According to one exemplary embodiment, a method for reducing load on a mobile network after the occurrence of a disaster event is provided. The method may include receiving a disaster location time. The method may include determining a target area based on the disaster location. The method may include determining target persons located within the target area. The method may include predicting the location of each target person based on historical movement data associated with each target person. The method may include determining a plurality of filtered persons based on the predicted location of each target person and the disaster time. The method may include determining a plurality of safe persons based on the filtered persons and a safety indicator. The method may include sending a safety notification to a plurality of concerned contacts associated with each safe person and blocking network traffic associated with each safe person.
