Publication number: 20170272544Abstract: A client device downloads a sandboxed application contained within a sandbox. A relay server external to the client device is arranged to pass messages between the sandboxed application and a privileged application of the client device. A content server provides a content application which is downloaded and installed on the client device by the privileged application in response to a request from the sandboxed application received via the relay server.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2017Publication date: September 21, 2017Inventors: Paul Edmund Fleetwood Sheppard, Edward Michael French, Michael Athanasopoulos, Michael Roper

Patent number: 9552464Abstract: A computer system includes a server device which provides one or more content packages each comprising a plurality of asset files. A client device stores the content packages, and generates a virtual environment based on the asset files to be displayed on a display unit. A tracker is arranged to record an asset list directly or indirectly representing a sequence of the asset files according to progress through the virtual environment at the client device, and to distinguish between legitimate and non-legitimate behavior of the client device according to the recorded asset list.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2015Date of Patent: January 24, 2017Assignee: Tangentix LimitedInventors: Paul Edmund Fleetwood Sheppard, Edward Michael French

Patent number: 9526903Abstract: An electro-stimulation device for the treatment of anterior and posterior pelvic floor muscle dysfunction is reversibly compressible and is fully self-contained. The device requires no external power sources or control and may be inserted into the vagina or anus through the use of an applicator. In the compressed state the device may be of tampon proportions and after use may easily be removed. The device utilizes a compressible electrode component.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2015Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: FEMEDA LIMITEDInventors: Graham Peter Boyd, Ian Gregson, Julia Heather Herbert, Edward Michael French

Patent number: 9367213Abstract: A client device downloads an interactive multimedia content package, such as a video game, from a server across a network. The package includes executable code and a plurality of graphical asset files. A wrapper component is provided in the package, which provides an intermediate layer between the executable code and a runtime environment of the client device. The wrapper component restricts functionality of the interactive multimedia content package to provide a demonstration or trial mode, in particular having time limitations (e.g. a rental mode) or functional limitations regarding the assets and/or progress within the content by the executable code. The wrapper component may be removed or inactivated, thereby achieving a full or unlimited mode of the package.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2013Date of Patent: June 14, 2016Assignee: Tangentix LimitedInventors: Paul Edmund Fleetwood Sheppard, Edward Michael French, Peter Jack Jeffery, Gareth Edward Lewis
