  • Publication number: 20210365986
    Abstract: A technique for providing advertisement information is disclosed. The technique includes, in part sending, from a device built into a vehicle, a first set of data to a server, the first set of data corresponding to measurements performed by one or more sensors, receiving a first set of elements from the server in response to the first set of data, presenting one or more elements from the first set of elements to a user of the vehicle on a display in the vehicle, and receiving at least one input corresponding to at least one selected element among the one or more elements.

  • Patent number: 10585954
    Abstract: Techniques are presented for ranking and presenting information to a user. In one example, a portable computing device may collect a first set of data from one or more sensors, rank a second set of data (e.g., advertisements, news, etc.) by correlating the first set of data with a third set of data of interest to a user, and present the ranked information to the user. In another example, the portable computing device may transmit the collected information to a server for processing, and receive the ranked information from the server.

  • Publication number: 20200021582
    Abstract: In general, embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods and computer readable media for providing a user verification service based on analyzing digital fingerprint signals derived from out-of-band data (i.e., data not directly supplied by the user). In some embodiments, a digital fingerprint engine embedded in an app hosted on a client device being accessed by a user reads various device or user data and then creates a set of encoded user verification data representing out-of-band data stored locally on that device. In some embodiments, the user verification data are encoded as hashes generated by a hash function. In some embodiments, the app is configured to contact a business server via the cloud, and the set of digital fingerprints are included in an authorization request transmitted from the client device to the business server.

  • Publication number: 20150262102
    Abstract: According to embodiments of the present invention, a computer-implemented method for deriving a robotic action from data measurements received from a robotic device is presented. The method may include sensing first information from one or more sensors in the robotic device, transmitting the first information from the robotic computing device to a computing device and receiving processed information from the computing device. The processed information includes a hardware instruction to be performed by the robotic device. The robotic device performs an action based on the hardware instruction and stores the action. In some embodiments, the robotic device updates a training dataset based on the action. The training dataset may include past data inputs and/or training data associated with the robotic device. In certain embodiments, the robotic device may communicate feedback to the computing device that the action was performed successfully.
