  • Publication number: 20240104537
    Abstract: A system for third-party shopper exit verification is provided. The system includes a store user device, a network interface, a third-party shopper database, and a central computer system. The central computer is configured to provide, to a third-party shopper device, items in a customer order to be collected by a third-party shopper from a retail store; detect a completion of a shopping trip for the customer order; retrieve third-party shopper information associated with the third-party shopper from the third-party shopper database; and determine whether to initiate an audit process based at least on the third-party shopper information. In the event that the audit process is required, the central computer system causes an audit request to display on the store user device and determines whether the third-party shopper passes audit based on comparing item identifiers of items in possession of the third-party shopper with items in the customer order.

  • Patent number: 8941711
    Abstract: Systems and methods of providing extended presence information for multi-user devices are described. Communication devices used in conference rooms represent a different nature than single user devices such as a personal computer. Conference rooms also have attributes that may be added to existing presence information and provide an enhanced experience for scheduling and dissemination of conference room capabilities. Information such as actual people in attendance may be added to the presence information maintained by a presence server to provide an overall enhancement to the meeting room whether it is physically a single conference room or a multitude of endpoints remotely connected to a conference.

  • Patent number: 7561536
    Abstract: Assigning inbound ringing ISDN channels to a particular endpoint's call uses a framing listening technique to distinguish between H.221 framing, master bonding channel framing and slave bonding channel framing. If the channel is receiving Master Bonding Channel framing, the MCU detects that this is a new call from a unique far endpoint and may then begin a process to address this new call. If the channel is receiving Slave Bonding Channel framing, the MCU then transmits a multi-frame pattern and looks for a Physical Video Unit Identifier the MCU sent to this far end via the Master Channel upon initial negotiation. If the channel is receiving H.221 framing, a H.243 terminal address assigned using a Terminal Indicate Assignment (TIA) message in the initial channel is used. The far endpoint may then send this address in its additional channels through the use of a Terminal Indicate Additional Channel X (TIX) message.
