  • Publication number: 20210081606
    Abstract: Systems and methods receive a user input requesting access to a template and display the template having a layout defined by a set of rules. User inputs corresponding to the template are also received at a graphical user interface, the user inputs changing content in the template, wherein allowable modifications to the template are defined by a master template using the data model. The template is generated from the master template. A plurality of webpages defined by the template with the allowable modifications are dynamically built, wherein a URL is associated separately from the plurality of webpages, with the URL tracked as a separate entity, that allows for more efficient generation of different content.

  • Patent number: 10931150
    Abstract: A vehicle communicates with a remote key fob while ensuring an RF environment is sufficient to maintain adequate power from an RF-harvesting power supply that allows the fob to operate without a battery. The vehicle has a receiver adapted to detect a backscatter communication signal from the fob. A harvesting emulator in the vehicle is responsive to ambient RF around the vehicle to duplicate a concurrent response of the fob power supply. A vehicle-powered RF transmitter is activated to broadcast energizing RF radiation around the vehicle when the duplicated response is below a threshold.

  • Patent number: 10885712
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to an augmented reality based user's manual for a vehicle implemented as an application on a mobile device which allows the user to point a mobile phone, tablet or an augmented reality headset at any part of the vehicle interior or exterior and experience augmented annotations, overlays, popups, etc. displayed on images of real parts of the car captured by the user's mobile device. Embodiments provide for estimating the camera pose in six degrees of freedom based on the content of the captured image or video and using a neural network trained on a dense sampling of a three-dimensional model of the car rendered with realistic textures to identify and properly align the augmented reality presentation with the image of the vehicle being captured by the mobile device.

  • Patent number: 10846390
    Abstract: A cloud-based identity and access management system that implements single sign-on (“SSO”) receives a first request for an identity management service configured to allow for accessing an application. Embodiments send the first request to a first microservice which performs the identity management service by generating a token. The first microservice generates the token at least in part by sending a second request to a SSO microservice that is configured to provide SSO functionality across different microservices that are based on different protocols. Embodiments then receive the token from the first microservice and provide the token to the application, where the token allows for accessing the application.

  • Publication number: 20200349943
    Abstract: Methods and systems for performing contact resolution are described herein. When initiating a communications session using a voice activated electronic device, a contact name may be resolved to determine an appropriate contact with which the communications session may be directed to. Contacts from an individual's contact list may be queried to determine a listing of probable contacts associated with the contact name, and contact identifiers associated with the contact may be determined. Using one or more rules for disambiguating between similar contact names, a single contact may be identified, and a communications session with that contact may be initiated.

  • Patent number: 10814864
    Abstract: Method and apparatus are disclosed for mobile device tethering for a remote parking assist system of a vehicle. An example vehicle includes first and second wireless modules and a processor. The processor calculates trajectories of the vehicle and a mobile device and estimates a location of the mobile device. When the mobile device is within a threshold distance of the vehicle, the processor polls a key fob at an interval based on a comparison of the trajectories and estimate a location of the key fob. When the key fob is within the threshold distance, the processor enables autonomous parking.

  • Patent number: 10816632
    Abstract: To accomplish 360-degree 6-DoF LED-based visual tracking, a tracked object has to be covered with sufficient number of LEDs so that when observed at any angle from an optical sensor, there are enough features to estimate the 6-DoF pose. Depending on the algorithm, typically, at least 4 feature points need to be seen in order to calculate the 6 DoF pose accurately. However, that would require many LEDs to be placed on the device for 360-degree visual coverage. As the number of LEDs increase, the device size increases because the LEDs need to be spaced out so that they will not fuse together into connected/overlapped blobs when seen from the optical sensor. Uniquely designed Lambertian Diffusers significantly reduce the number of LEDs required for 360 degree-6 DoF tracking and hence enable tracking with small form factor devices.
