  • Patent number: 11954699
    Abstract: A computer based system for remapping prime class seat bookings is disclosed. The system remaps prime class bookings a floor class, or if the floor class is closed, into a higher, displacement class. Via remapping, airline systems, such as inventory management systems, revenue management systems, and the like, may better account for the true value of prime class bookings.

  • Publication number: 20240098100
    Abstract: An automated sandbox generator for a cyber-attack exercise on a mimic network in a cloud environment can include various components. The cloud deployment component deploys the mimic network in a sandbox environment in the cloud environment. The mimic network can be a clone of components from a network that exists in an organization's environment and/or, predefined example components. The attack engine deploys a cyber threat to use an exploit for the wargaming cyber-attack exercise in the mimic network. The user interface displays, in real time, results of the wargaming cyber-attack exercise being conducted in the sandbox environment, to create a behavioral profile of how the cyber threat using the exploit would actually perform in that particular organization's environment as well as have human users interact with the cyber threat deployed by the attack engine during the cyber-attack on the mimic network, as it happens in real time, during the wargaming cyber-attack exercise.

  • Patent number: 11911799
    Abstract: A system and method for enhanced monitoring and sorting of delivery items, such as packages, which are moved and sorted via a delivery service conveyor device. Conventional systems may employ photocells, which detect interrupted light beams, to identify packages or delivery items along a conveyor path. The present system and method enhances photocell function by adding image detection and analysis to the mail path; and further by modifying the photocell signals to the sorter/conveyor control. The present sensing system is located in the same area on the transport as the photocell, and uses a camera to capture an image of the mail path in the photocell area. The system and method then analyze a package image to formulate a more accurate item detection signal, based on photocell data and image data, for input to the sorter/conveyor control system.

  • Publication number: 20230316446
    Abstract: A computer-based system for unobscuring and/or unconstraining demand is disclosed. Via use of the system, actual airline seat bookings may be restated in an unobscured and/or unconstrained form, facilitating improved demand forecasts for subsequent seat bookings. In this manner, seat protects may be better allocated to align with actual demand, thus increasing revenue.

  • Patent number: 11620590
    Abstract: In a computerized remapping system for airline seat bookings, actual airline seat bookings are restated in a remapped form reflecting the value of each leg of the booking from a network perspective, facilitating improved demand forecasts for subsequent seat bookings. In this manner, seat protects and seat pricing may be better allocated to align with actual demand.

  • Publication number: 20220405672
    Abstract: A system for managing construction and maintenance of a facility comprises a server, a database, asset tags, user devices, and administrator devices. The database stores asset records, with the asset records associated with a building asset and comprising information regarding the associated building asset. The asset tag is attached to and associated with a building asset. The user devices interact with the asset tag to identify the associated building asset and to transmit to the server information regarding status, completion, or activity regarding the building asset for recordal in the associated asset record. The administrator devices retrieve from the server information regarding the building assets by accessing the associated asset records and to display the information regarding the building assets on the administrator devices. The server generates a virtual model representing a current state of the facility based on the asset records.

  • Publication number: 20220396335
    Abstract: A status monitoring system and the devices used for the status monitoring system is disclosed. The status monitoring system includes a controller device, a plurality of rod monitoring devices, and a motor monitoring device which works together to provide a layered approach to securing the boat. The controller device is configured to communicate with a smart device via cellular network. The controller device triggers an alert once it detects unexpected events on the boat or receives intrusion notifications from other devices in the status monitoring system. Unexpected events can include the boat moving out of the geofence, boat vibration, and unexpected starting of the vehicle. A method for monitoring the status of the boat is also disclosed. The method can include receiving an activation signal, receiving a GPS signal, receiving vibration signals, energizing the siren and transmitting notification and boat location to the cloud when detecting at least one trigger.
