Patents by Inventor Drew Breunig

Drew Breunig has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11900402
    Abstract: Provided is a process including segmenting a representation into a set of tiles and obtaining a set of geolocations. The process includes, for each tile, determining a respective amount of devices within the respective tile to form a set of weights. The process also includes assigning each tile of a subset of the set of tiles with a set of groups based on the set of weights, building a first map based on the set of groups, and building a second map by traversing the first map. The process also includes determining a first and second subset of devices by traversing the second map, determining whether a second tile is to be assigned to a first or second group based on the first and second subset of devices, assigning the second tile to the first group, and building a region map comprising the set of groups.

  • Patent number: 11741487
    Abstract: Provided is a process including obtaining a set of geographic places of interest, obtaining a set of location identifiers of devices, determining a set of tiles based on the set of geographic places of interest, and determining a subset of the set of location identifiers of devices based on members of the subset of the set of location identifiers. The process also includes determining a subset of the devices based on the subset of the set of location identifiers of devices and determining a set of dwell-based values based on the subset of the set of devices. The process also includes determining a set of threshold-satisfying tiles based on the set of dwell-based values and storing the set of threshold-satisfying tiles in a computer system.
