Patent number: 11546461Abstract: A computer system is described that is configured to enable customers of an organization to self-monitor account activity and modify account access settings via a contact center of the organization. The contact center control system is configured to provide an interactive call history associated with the customer's accounts with the organization. Using the call history, the customer may perform self-monitoring of calls into the contact center that access the customer's accounts, and notify the organization if any of the calls appear suspicious. The contact center control system is configured provide a user interface through which the customer may modify account access settings including changing which types of authentication methods are enabled to access the customer's accounts, and blocking account access by callers from certain phone numbers. The contact center control system may allow the customer to turn off all access to the customer's accounts via the contact center.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2020Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Julio Jiron, Kevin King, Beth S.

Patent number: 11445065Abstract: A call screening computing system is described that is configured to perform voice captcha and real-time monitoring of calls into a contact center of an organization. The call screening computing system includes a chat bot configured to operate as an AI-based call screener. The chat bot is configured to perform voice captcha by sending a random question to a user device placing a call into the contact center, and analyzing the received answer to determine whether a user of the user device is human or a robot. The chat bot is configured to, based on the user being human, determine whether the user is a legitimate customer of the organization by generating and presenting authentication challenges to the user device. The chat bot may be configured to monitor and interact with a conversation between the user and an agent of the organization during the call into the contact center.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2020Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Julio Jiron, Kevin King, Beth S.

Patent number: 10944872Abstract: A computer system is described that is configured to generate an entry in a centralized event log for each voice call into a contact center of an organization. The event log system is configured to receive call data associated with action performed during the call and retrieve context data associated with the call from across a plurality of disparate systems used by the contact center to service the call. The event log system is configured to include both the call data and the context data in the call entry, and to correlate the call entry with previous call entries for a same entity identified for the call. The call entry may also include entity profile data as metadata. The pertinent data for the call will be stored in a single, centralized location accessible by any of the front-end systems for use in determining how to handle the call.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2020Date of Patent: March 9, 2021Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Julio Jiron, Kevin King, Beth S.

Publication number: 20200225800Abstract: In one embodiment, a touch sensor includes a substrate and a mesh of conductive material formed on the substrate and configured to extend across a display. The mesh of conductive material comprises first lines of conductive material that are substantially parallel to each other. The first lines are configured to extend across at least a portion of the display at a first angle relative to a first axis. The first lines are separated from each other along the first axis by a sequence of separation distances. Magnitudes of more than one of the separation distances are based on a phasor comprising at least one side band, wherein the at least one side band comprises at least one positive side band component and at least one negative side band component. The magnitudes comprise a pattern of translational shifts.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2019Publication date: July 16, 2020Applicant: NeodrĂ³n LimitedInventors: David Brent Guard, Steven P.
