Patent number: 11966449Abstract: Disclosed embodiments may include a system for generating custom content. The system may generate a first webpage comprising first feature(s). The system may transmit the first webpage for display via a graphical user interface (GUI) of a user device. The system may iteratively, until a predetermined threshold is achieved: receive data corresponding to a first user; generate, by an encoder, encoded data based on the data; generate, by a decoder, second feature(s) based on the encoded data; modify the first webpage to generate a second webpage comprising the second feature(s); transmit the second webpage for display via the GUI of the user device; receive user feedback associated with the second webpage; and determine whether the user feedback exceeds the predetermined threshold. Responsive to the predetermined threshold being achieved, the system may transmit the latest version of the second webpage without requesting additional user feedback.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: CAPITAL ONE SERVICES, LLCInventors: Samuel Sharpe, Grant Eden, Galen Rafferty, Anh Truong, Jeremy Edward Goodsitt

Patent number: 11762002Abstract: The inventive wrist-band voltage detector provides a wearable device for detecting the presence of AC voltage without interference with work activities. Embodiments of the inventive wrist-band voltage detector include monopole aerials positioned in each side of the wrist band. A thin flexible dielectric layer may sit between the aerials and inside of the wrist band, acting as an electrical barrier between the aerials and the user's wrist. The aerials are connected to conventional voltage detector circuitry on a circuit board located on the top side of the wrist band. The circuit board is grounded to the user's wrist, which enhances the circuitry's ability to detect the presence of nearby AC voltage at a safe distance.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2022Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Inventor: Grant Edward Staples

Patent number: 11590782Abstract: Included are embodiments for providing a service station routine. Some embodiments of a system include a service station for receiving a handheld jet dispensing apparatus and a memory component that stores logic. When the logic is executed by a processor, the logic may cause the system to, in response to the service station receiving the handheld jet dispensing apparatus, identify the handheld jet dispensing apparatus, where identifying the handheld jet dispensing apparatus includes determining a time of a previous maintenance to the handheld jet dispensing apparatus. In some embodiments, the logic causes the system to determine whether the time of the previous maintenance meets a predetermined threshold, in response to determining that the time of the previous maintenance meets a predetermined threshold, determine a desired maintenance routine to execute and execute the desired maintenance routine, and record a current time as the time of the previous maintenance.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2021Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANYInventors: Thomas Elliot Rabe, Paul John Edward Vernon, Grant Edward Anders Striemer, Janette Marie Villalobos
