  • Publication number: 20240137472
    Abstract: A method for remote identification of security threats in an imaged object including transmitting an initialization signal to a first threat detection scanner over a communication network, the first threat detection scanner being located at a separate physical location, receiving a ready-to-send signal from the first threat detection scanner, the ready-to-send signal including a storage location of a scan image generated by the first threat detection scanner for security inspection, receiving the scan image from the first threat detection scanner, transmitting, after receiving the scan image from the first threat detection scanner, a second initialization signal to a second threat detection scanner at the separate physical location, generating a threat detection report based on a rendering of the scan image, and transmitting the threat detection report to the first threat detection scanner.

  • Publication number: 20160042066
    Abstract: Example methods are disclosed for a search engine to produce a list of links to websites and for a domain name registrar to produce a plurality of domain names for a user. The list of links to websites and the plurality of domain names are preferably based on a search string and a desired relevance. A high desired relevance leads to exact or very close matches while a low desired relevance leads to indirect or exploratory matches when comparing the search string with the list of links to websites or the plurality of domain names. A webpage having a search string entry field and a relevance slider interface may be displayed to the user permitting the search engine or the domain name registrar to receive the search string and the desired relevance from the user. The search engine or domain name registrar may then determine and display to the user the list of links to the websites or the plurality of available domain names based on the search string and the desired relevance.
