Patent number: 12241789Abstract: In a general aspect, a radiometer is disclosed that includes a vapor cell sensor. The vapor cell sensor contains a vapor and is configured to generate an optical signal in response to laser signals and thermal radiation interacting with the vapor. The vapor includes a Rydberg electronic transition that is configured to interact with the thermal radiation. The radiometer also includes a computing system having one or more processors and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, are configured to perform operations that include generating, based on the optical signal, transmission data that represents the transmission of the one laser signal through the vapor. The operations also include determining, based on the transmission data, a temperature of a target body that generates the thermal radiation.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2024Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignee: Quantum Valley Ideas LaboratoriesInventors: Matthias Schmidt, Stephanie M.

Patent number: 12235887Abstract: The system and methods described herein provide content recommendations to user equipment timed to reduce interruption of content. A content recommendation application detects output of first content and determines viewing metrics for the first content. Using the determined viewing metrics, the content recommendation application determines whether output of a content recommendation should be blocked. In response to determining that the viewing metrics indicate output of the content recommendation should be blocked, the content recommendation application blocks the content recommendation. Upon receiving an input changing output of the first content to output of a second content, the content recommendation application unblocks and outputs the content recommendation.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2023Date of Patent: February 25, 2025Assignee: ADEIA GUIDES INC.Inventors: Michael James Brehm, Walter John Schmidt, Benjamin Harden

Publication number: 20240403332Abstract: A data classification system obtains a data set including first data associated with a first characteristic and second data associated with a second characteristic. In response to obtaining the data set, the system uses a classification model to generate a classification by classifying the first data into majority data and the second data into minority data. From the classification and using the classification model, the system determines a loss. The system modifies the classification model based on this loss to generate an updated classification model. The system uses the updated classification model to re-classify a subset of the first data into the minority data and a subset of the second data into the majority data.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 11, 2024Publication date: December 5, 2024Inventor: Arnold James Schmidt

Publication number: 20240054849Abstract: A self-service kiosk includes a housing and an imaging device in a key fob receptacle in the housing. The imaging device captures an image of a master key fob placed in the receptacle. The kiosk includes a key fob dispenser having a dispensing slot to receive a duplicated key fob and a dispensing mechanism to dispense the duplicated key fob into the dispensing slot. The kiosk also includes a processor that receives an image from the imaging device, and detects a presence of the master key fob in the key fob receptacle based on an analysis of the received image. Upon detecting the presence of the master key fob, the processor reads codes stored on the master key fob, writes the codes on a blank key fob to generate the duplicated key fob, and causes the dispensing mechanism to dispense the duplicated key fob in the dispensing slot.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 11, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Applicant: THE HILLMAN GROUP, INC.Inventors: Byron Keith GRICE, Michael Kenneth HART, Michael James SCHMIDT, Brian David ROSNER, Ari BENNETT, Robert FOORD, Bryan Keith SOLACE
