Publication number: 20250175662Abstract: A content access device and system may allow portable remote devices to be paired with a variety of different devices, allowing remote control through a network connection. Content access devices may expose application program interfaces, allowing incoming network traffic to control operation of the device much in the same way that a local infrared remote would. Routing content commands through an external application server may also yield other benefits, such as allowing more customized selection of information and advertising content to users based on their viewing history.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2024Publication date: May 29, 2025Inventors: Michael D. McMahon, Donald Dischner, Jamesheed R. Batmanglidj, James Capps, Joshua Seiden

Patent number: 12069185Abstract: A universal cloud connector is proposed to intake client data using an integrated application programming interface (API) that is capable of processing various client data. Specifically, the integrated API includes at least two layers: (i) an authentication layer authenticates a client based on a client-level secret ID such that the client can only access data resource that is accessible to this particular client; (ii) a data segregation layer that integrates with the client's system so that users of the client (bank) can view and interact with their bank records that are pulled through the authentication layer. Thus, the integration API may act as a collection of micro-services that allow a client's system to synchronize data and workflow states with the server in real-time.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2022Date of Patent: August 20, 2024Assignee: BlackRock, Inc.Inventors: Shaila Abraham, James Capps
