Patent number: 12190336Abstract: Computerized system and method of obtaining and analyzing data on how large numbers of real estate visitors view and interact with real estate property. The system, which may operate during either real-world or virtual real estate tours, may utilize data from either property-associated sensors or user mobile device sensors (e.g., smartphone sensors) to obtain and aggregate visitor position and/or orientation data with respect to various designated locations of interest on the property. This can be used to produce statistics on visitor positions and/or orientations with respect to such locations. The resulting data can be used for various purposes, including as input to LLM AI systems for automated real estate recommendations and information about various real estate features associated with below or above-average visitor interest or approval. Various methods to encourage use, such as self-guided real-world tours, virtual staging, and virtual goods and services, are also discussed.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2024Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Inventor: Donald Charles Catalano

Publication number: 20240354216Abstract: An apparatus comprises: memory access circuitry (11) to process memory access requests requesting access to a memory system (10, 32); and access frequency tracking circuitry (40). In response to a given memory access request requesting access to a given page of a memory address space, the access frequency tracking circuitry (40) determines an outcome of a chance-dependent test, where the outcome of the chance-dependent test is dependent on chance. When the outcome of the chance-dependent test is a first outcome, an access frequency tracking indicator corresponding to the given page is updated within an access frequency tracking structure. When the chance-dependent test has an outcome other than the first outcome. the access frequency tracking circuitry 40 omits updating of the access frequency tracking indicator corresponding to the given page.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2022Publication date: October 24, 2024Applicant: Arm LimitedInventors: Matthew Lucien Evans, Robert Gwilym Dimond, Alexander Donald Charles Chadwick
